“Oh! It's a Plucky! They're in charge of deliveries! They'll deliver everything from cargo to correspondence!”
—Recruit Poplin , Super Mario Bros. Wonder – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park

Pluckys[1] are yellow birds in Super Mario Bros. Wonder – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park . They serve as delivery people for the Toad Brigade. They wear a red neckerchief, much like Captain Toad.

At the Toad Brigade Training Camp in Bellabel Park, a Plucky is perched on a mailbox containing reports from the Recruit Poplin.[2] :2:46 A Plucky also delivers eyewitness reports from the recruit regarding sightings of the Koopalings.[3] :2:17 Pluckys also appear before and during the Koopaling fights, where they are seen dropping ? Capsules containing power-ups to the player character.[3] :4:26

A Plucky is playable in the Co-Op attraction Fly Free, Captain Toad! In this attraction, one player controls Captain Toad, who cannot jump; the other player must therefore control the Plucky perched on his head to help lift him off the ground.

A Plucky appears on the "Senior Explorer" Toad Brigade Training Camp patch.[2] :3:04

Three weeks prior to Meetup in Bellabel Park's release, a Plucky debuted in Super Mario Run as a statue alongside Captain Toad in an event promoting the game running from March 5, 2026, to April 3, 2026. The statue can be obtained by completing the second stamp card.

Naming[edit ]

"Plucky" not only refers to the plucking of a bird's feathers, but is also a word meaning "brave". Additionally, in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker , the word is part of the name of a level, a musical theme, and a performable move.
