Prince Poo (Japanese: プー Pū), alternatively Pu[2], is the prince of Dalaam, and is the fourth of the main playable characters in EarthBound. After finishing his Mu training, he is told that he is one of the chosen four by his Master, and must join Ness in his journey to defeat Giygas.
Unlike the other main characters in Earthbound, Poo doesn't receive attack boosts from the usual equipment, instead having an unique set of four items for his own use: the Sword of Kings, Cloak of Kings, Bracer of Kings and Diadem of Kings. Poo also recovers less HP from eating food items (not including the Brain food lunch, which replenishes his HP completely), only being able to recover about 6 HP from regular food. Also unlike other characters, Poo is the only character to gain more than 1 PP from drinking a Bottle of water or a Bottle of DXwater, which recover 10 and 40 PP respectively.
Biography
Physical appearance
Poo wears a full white martial arts gi with puffy white pants that taper off below the knee and a black belt tied in a ribbon around his waist, likely to symbolize his mastery. Additionally to his outfit, he also wears black slip-on shoes with white soles. He is mostly bald, but has a black topknot and braided ponytail atop his head and distinctively thick, angled eyebrows. Though his face appears to resemble most other characters with its rounded shape and blush marks, his Super Smash Bros. Ultimate model and papier-mâché model demonstrate that he is more cheek-heavy than other characters of the same general figure.
Personality and other characteristics
Poo lives in a palace in the Eastern country of Dalaam in Chommo. Personality wise, Poo is very friendly with the people in his kingdom, appearing to be especially popular with the women of Dalaam. Poo is also a serious and dedicated individual, appearing to take his training very seriously, as some women mention he'd rather train than hang out with them. He is willing to endure situations that most would be afraid to take, specifically in his Mu Training, as the Mu spirit breaks various parts of his body, but Poo maintains his strength and still continues. Poo also shows strong loyalty, saying he will follow Ness and obey him as his master, and in the end quickly returns to Dalaam to use the skills he learned in the adventure for the benefit of his people in Dalaam.
Overall, Poo is a very serious, yet loyal and friendly individual, who is willing to endure any circumstance in order to save the world.

Poo learns PSI Starstorm α from the Star Master when exiting the Scaraba pyramid. He then learns PSI Starstorm Ω from the same character before going back in time to fight Giygas.
Mirror
Poo has the ability to turn into enemies using the Mirror (Japanese: ヘンしン Transformation) command, and use their techniques. Because of this, he becomes automatically controlled until the end of a battle. The success chance for this is based on the enemy it is being used on, with the success rate never being higher than 50% and failing against bosses.

Trophy description
Super Smash Bros. Melee
- Poo, the crown prince of the mysterious eastern country of Dalaam, joined Ness after completing rigorous training in his home country. While he doesn't stand out among Ness's friends, his vast experience and strong willpower make him a key to their success. Poo can assume the form of an enemy to gain its powers.

Trivia
- Poo has the fewest primary weapons out of any playable character in the entire Mother series, only having the Sword of Kings.
- The only characters who comes close to matching are Lloyd, who only has two Guns, and Boney, whose sole weapon is the Canine Weapon, although he has a variety of Collars that serve as a weapon substitute.
- Poo has an unused jumping sprite, being the only character not to use his.
- Poo is confirmed to be at least bilingual to some capacity by both speaking the game's set language upon meeting the other party members, and by being able to translate the Hieroglyphs in the Scaraba Cultural Museum.
- Due to Dalaam's general location relative to the real world, Poo is presumably equivalent to being South Asian.
