"Professor Pumplestickle" by Nick Phoenix & Thomas J. Bergersen was featured on Just Dance 2, Just Dance 3, and Just Dance 4 as a downloadable track but became unavailable for purchase on the Wii following the shutdown of the Wii Shop Channel in January 2019, and on the Wii U following the delisting of Just Dance games from the eShop in late 2019. The song remains playable on Just Dance: Summer Party, Just Dance Now, Just Dance Unlimited, and remains available for purchase on non-Nintendo consoles on applicable games. It was also featured on 舞力全开：活力派 before the shutdown.
Appearance of the Dancers
The routine consists of a duet of two men with green skin.
P1
P1 is a male magician. He wears a tall blue top hat, yellow glasses, a green and purple blazer with a yellow shirt underneath, dark blue pants, blue striped socks, and red boots. He also holds a sparkling wand.
P2
P2 is a male pumpkin-headed scarecrow. He wears a yellow bodysuit, green shorts with blue suspenders, green grassy anklets, and green and black shoes with short heels.
Background
Original
The dance takes place in a lab with machines and meters, with a curtain, a luminous sign with the title of the song and an Illuminati emblem at the center, and a blue mist.
Remake
Starting from Just Dance 4 onwards, the machine looks more detailed, with a big pipe sending water into the center of the machinery. Fire comes out at the sides of the machine, and the curtain has some decorations that light up.

Trivia
General
- Being included in seven games (Just Dance 2, Just Dance: Summer Party, Just Dance 3, Just Dance 4, Just Dance Now, Just Dance Unlimited and 舞力全开：活力派), Professor Pumplestickle is one of the most recurring songs in the series.
- In the Just Dance 4 store, the names of the artists are abbreviated to "N. Pheonix" and "T. Bergersen".
Routine
- Professor Pumplestickle is the first routine in the Just Dance series where a coach is holding an object in their right hand (in this case, P1 holds a magic wand).
- It is also the first routine where the object is represented on the pictograms.
- However, that no longer happens from Just Dance 4 onwards.
- It is also the first routine where the object is represented on the pictograms.
- P1’s pants are glitchy, as they tend to acquire a green shade when he turns left.
- His glove also turns orange when he raises his hand.
- In the Just Dance: Summer Party trailer, the coaches are in front of Maniac’s background and their color schemes look slightly different.
- In a promotional gameplay, they appear in front of the actual background but both pictograms have the same color.
- In Just Dance: Summer Party and Just Dance 3, the title is misspelled as Professeur Pumplestickle.
- It is misspelled in its code name, too ("Professeur").
- P2 later reappears in This is Halloween.
- A demo version of Professor Pumplestickle is available for the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3.
- In the remake, the first two Gold Moves from Just Dance 3 have been removed.
- Many pictograms for the remake have names referencing Harry Potter.
- P1’s avatar has white skin, although the coach’s skin is actually green.
- The Just Dance Now pictograms sprite features twelve unused pictograms (ten from Just Dance 3 and two from Just Dance 4).
- In Just Dance Unlimited, the amount of pictograms is reduced.
- In 舞力全开：活力派, the artists are credited as 尼克・菲尼克斯与托马斯・贝格森: this translation alters their surnames as "Phillips" (instead of "Phoenix") and "Bergson" (instead of "Bergersen").
