Unlike standard Pokeys, they cannot fall on [[Mario]], as they are too small. Instead, they hide in the ground, pretending to be flowers, and jump when he approaches. They then hop toward Mario slowly. They can be defeated with a [[Stomp|Jump]] or [[Spin]]. Additionally, they can be sprayed into a wall in ''Super Mario Sunshine''. This causes them to splat on the wall and produce three [[coin]]s instead of one.
