Is there a way to spawn pokeys only as a head? Or even possibly a way to kill the bottom part of a two piece tall pokey when the level starts? Please help! I really need it !

I think you can, but with ASM...
other option is making for example this:
pokey head
----------------------(this is quick sand)
-------pokey body-----
-------platform-------

If the sprite data doesn't allow that, then no, it's not possible to do it without ASM hacking.
You could try what  MiguelMML said. Hiding the body. But it would look weird.

Or just activating any shelllike enemy that removes the body.

Um... Would the head even walk off the body and you could still walk on the body and get hurt! And another thing is: Its not a desert level so why would there be quicksand?
If go with rays idea, I would need to get rid of the shell! (But a simple pit would do that)

Usually, Pokeys fit on a desert level.
A pokey in grassland won't be too much fitting...
And if there's not quicksand, try  ray's option.

Nintendo used pokeys in grassland levels in Super Mario World.

Doesn't actually do anything.

Super Mario World didn't have a desert world or a desert tileset. SMW's pokey graphics were simple enough that they could be used in quite a few places and still fit. Here, not so much.

They still can be retextured with the generic "worm" yellow spheres that are used in the other worms...

You could edit the graphics for the "Junglekusa" sprite and cover all but the head with it, so the rest of the Pokey is hidden behind it.

Wouldn't that make the head look like it's floating?

Using junglekusa wont work at all, since it will spawn all over the level, covering every tile at its position.

Oh, I thought it only appeared once, and you had to place them consecutively for it to continue for the whole level.

That's what I did for Clone Tag Team...

Not if you edited the graphics so it would look like ground tiles, and then you just place solid tiles behind it.

Excuse me please, can you tell me why you want only its head? Because maybe we could try alternate method to get a result that you expect, if there's not any best way for this question.

Um... It cant replace anything and it needs to ONLY be a head! There cant be any tiles coveting the body and anything like that!

But you still haven't said *why* you need it to be only a head, lol.
If there's no real reason, you can also not do it.

There might be a nybble you can set in the pokeys sprite data which make it spawn with only it's head...

Indeed. True story.

BTW it's likely to happen that you may want another new idea... if there's not any solution.
