In ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'', Tower Power Pokey was originally a normal Pokey residing at [[Drybake Stadium]] until [[Kamek]] placed a [[Royal Sticker]] on its head, transforming it into a powerful monster. Kamek then placed the Pokey onto the top of the stadium and cut the stadium into three tablet pieces and placed them in various places of the desert, in order to hide the Royal Sticker. One tablet piece was placed at [[Yoshi Sphinx]], where Kamek attempts to stop [[Mario]] and [[Kersti]] from obtaining the tablet piece. Another piece was located at a hidden cavern at [[Drybake Desert]] and the last piece was found by a [[Toad]] living at the [[Damp Oasis]]. | In ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'', Tower Power Pokey was originally a normal Pokey residing at [[Drybake Stadium]] until [[Kamek]] placed a [[Royal Sticker]] on its head, transforming it into a powerful monster.

In battle, Tower Power Pokey has a variety of attacks. It can use a spinning attack near the player that causes 2 damage for every revolution, with a total of five revolutions per attack. Tower Power Pokey may reveal some of its body segments from the sand, giving it substantial height. When Tower Power Pokey has one or more body segments revealed, it will attempt to topple onto the player for 7 damage. This attack can also give the player the [[Crumpled]] status effect. However, if it only has one or two body segments, the attack will miss. Using any [[Hammer]] [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|sticker]] on Tower Power Pokey while its segments are revealed will cause Mario to take damage from the spikes. Sometimes, Tower Power Pokey may summon two green Pokeys in battle. Using | In battle, Tower Power Pokey has a variety of attacks.

Sometimes, Tower Power Pokey may summon two green Pokeys in battle. Using a bat, toy bat, or newspaper sticker will attack all non-head body segments, rather than just one. Instead of the usual "FIGHT!", the screen displays "PLAY BALL!" at the beginning of the battle, possibly giving the player a hint. The only time Mario can use his [[Big Shiny]] and [[Megaflash]] hammers is at the start of the battle using the [[Battle Spinner]]. | ||
Once all the segments of Tower Power Pokey have been destroyed, it will resort to using its spinning attack. Occasionally, the boss can take off its crown to reveal its pink flower underneath. The Pokey will regain 10 [[Heart Point|HP]] every time it uses this attack. | Once all the segments of Tower Power Pokey have been destroyed, it will resort to using its spinning attack.

In battle, Paper Tower Power Pokey attacks by curling into a ball and attempting to roll into either Mario, Luigi or Paper Mario, and by hitting the segments of the Big Pokey towards the trio; both of these attacks must be countered using the group's [[Hammer]]s.

Additionally, the Pokey duo also have a chase attack, where they will charge towards Mario and Luigi simultaneously, which the Bros. have to avoid by jumping over them at the correct time; holding onto Paper Mario's Paper Airplane form if they're being attacked by the Big Pokey, as Paper Tower Power Pokey will fold up before charging, allowing it to be simply jumped over. Once defeated, the trio continue onwards to [[Bowser's Castle]]. | ||
