The Punies are a species of small quadrupedal creatures which resemble insects found in the game Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. They live in The Great Tree located in the Boggly Woods. Mario must use them to defeat a rival clan, the Jabbi, twice in the Great Tree.
Story
As Mario was exploring Rogueport Sewers for the first time looking for The Thousand-Year Door, he stumbled upon a small insect creature which was, indeed, a Puni. However, it escaped through a small opening, and Mario was unable to interact with it.
Later, after Mario gets the first Crystal Star, he goes back to Rogueport Sewers, now with a new ability, which is turning sideways. Luckily for Mario, next to the opening in which the insect had gone through were bars. Mario went through these bars to find out that the insect was just behind them. Mario learns that this insect is named Punio, who tells Mario his homeland, Boggly Woods and primarly The Great Three are under attack, and that he needs his help.
The Great Boggly Tree
When Mario reaches The Great Tree through a "secret entrance", he is told by a few Punies, which were all hidden, that their friends have been locked up somewhere in The Great Tree. Upon freeing them, Mario and all the Punies in The Great Tree will attack the Jabbies, the Punies' rivals, who have allied with the X-Nauts. A total of 100 Punies, including Punio and Petuni, will temporarilly join Mario during the events of Chapter 2.
After Mario defeats Lord Crump and the X-Nauts, the Punies will go back to their normal lives.
Notable Punies
- Petuni
- Puni Elder
- Punio
- Puniper
- Pungent
- Pungry (a.k.a. The Mover)
- Punderton (most likely)
Trivia
- Punies can possibly live to be 150, as Goombella tells Mario that is probably how long the Puni Elder live, although she later ponders how long they live when tattling a Puni NPC later in the game.
- The word "Puni" is a pun on the word "puny", meaning "small".
- In Super Paper Mario you'll see a poster of a Puni in one of the many houses.
