Pungent is the shopkeeper of a hidden store inside the Great Tree in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. During the X-Naut invasion of the Great Tree, Pungent was one of the few Punies not to be captured by the extraterrestrial villains. He hid in his shop, until the entrance was blown away by Mario's ally Flurrie. Recognizing the plumber was there to help, Pungent aided Mario by selling him rare items.
Pungry, who camouflaged the entrance to Pungent's shop, is apparently friends with him and likes to hang out inside his shop.
Tattle information
- That's Pungent, the manager of this shop. Weird place for a shop, if you ask me. But since we're here, I guess we could buy something...
