The first monster and the only monster that you don't need to unlock in the monster locker. It has no abilities but is your first line of defense when you were a new player. In higher levels they server the purpose of baiting Gorgo via Pokey Bombs and also baiting eye-ras in bunkers since their cheap and fast to make you can make a swarm of Pokeys in a few minutes.
Used correctly the Pokey is still a good monster in your arsenal even at higher levels. It's also the only monster that changes it's housing space when it upgrades to a higher level. They are also perfect for tripping booby traps. Pokey Bombs can also be a whole lot stronger with Fomor. It's your first monster and the most essential one as a beginner.
