Pokeynuts[1] are Big Pokeys that appear in Super Mario Galaxy, taking the standard Pokey design from contemporary games between Mario Kart: Double Dash!! and Mario Kart Wii. They attack by trying to crush Mario or Luigi while being held in place, similar to the Pokeys in Super Mario Sunshine. To defeat one, Mario or Luigi must spin a coconut into one to knock all of its segments down, then jump on its head to finish it off. Doing so will make a Launch Star appear. Only two Pokeynuts appear in the entire game. One appears on one of the tropic planets in the Good Egg Galaxy, and the other appears on one of another pair of planets in the Dusty Dune Galaxy.
