Zokket[1] is a major antagonist in Mario & Luigi: Brothership. He is the alter-ego of Cozette, who was brainwashed into leading the Extension Corps and his army (Zok Troops) as a whole. Zokket's ultimate purpose is the resurrection of Reclusa, an entity who seeks to drown all worlds in solitude, which he achieves by spreading Glohm throughout the shattered continent.[1][2] He wears a mask, a top hat that covers red and green cables, and a dark red cloak with a wire cutter-like object in the front, which he occasionally uses as a weapon. His cloak follows a design trend previously used by Cackletta, both the younger and elder Princess Shroobs, Dark Fawful, and Antasma. The name "Zokket" appears to be a voicing of "socket".
