A '''Big Piranha Plant''' (also known as '''Piranhacus Giganticus''',<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 13. Page 8.</ref> '''Super Piranha Plant'''<ref>Loe, Casey. ''New Super Mario Bros.'' Player's Guide. Page 13.</ref><ref>Bueno, Fernando. ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 14.</ref> or '''Mega Piranha Plant'''<ref>Musa, Alexander, and Geson Hatchett. ''Super Mario 3D World'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 23.</ref>) is a larger variety of [[Piranha Plant]].

==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Bros. 3''====
[[File:SMAS SMB3 Piranhacus Giganticus.png|frame|left]]
In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', they only appear in [[Giant Land]]. Although they are huge, a single fireball will destroy them, and they are mostly the same as any other typical Piranha Plant, other than presenting a larger target and obstacle; however, the ones in giant [[Warp Pipe|pipes]] will pop out even if Mario is next to them, like the red normal-sized Piranha Plants in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''. In the NES version, most of them have red heads and red leaves, except for the ones in [[World 4-6 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 4-6]], which have green heads and green leaves. In the remakes, all of them have red heads and green leaves, though they also have orange lips.

====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
Super Piranha Plants are found in the game ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' Unlike their previous appearance, Super Piranha Plants are never seen in pipes due to their size. [[Fire Mario]] must shoot three [[fireball]]s at one to destroy them. When defeated, they give up eight [[coin]]s instead of the usual one coin.

====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
[[File:NSMBW Super Piranha Plant Render.png|thumb|Super Piranha Plant in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''.]]
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', Super Piranha Plants function the same as before. Upon defeat, they now give up three coins instead of eight. Its [[Big Fire Piranha|fiery counterpart]] also makes its debut in a sidescroller.

====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
[[File:SMG2 Supermassive Big Piranha Plant.png|thumb|left|Mario finding a Super Piranha Plant and two [[Big Paragoomba]]s in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''.]]
Super Piranha Plants appear alongside [[Big Goomba|Giant Goomba]]s, [[Big Paragoomba]]s, and [[Big Koopa Troopa|Giant Koopa]]s in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', where they appear in the [[Supermassive Galaxy]]. They are shown in giant pipes similar to how they appear in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', only much bigger. However, in contrast to their original appearance in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', they are invincible, thus serving more as an obstacle than an enemy. They can, however, be stunned with a [[spin]] or a [[Star Bit]], but that just hinders the player as it stops the plant from going back in the pipe.

====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', Big Piranha Plants are among the enemies that are affected by the [[Gold Ring]]. When defeated, the location they once stood upon spouts coins. They once again exclusively appear outside pipes, just like in ''New Super Mario Bros.'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''.
{{br|left}}

====''New Super Mario Bros. U''====
[[File:NSMBU Big Piranha Plant Screenshot.png|120px|thumb|A lone Big Piranha Plant in ''New Super Mario Bros. U''.]]
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', Big Piranha Plants are seen in numerous stages, such as [[Rise of the Piranha Plants]]. One Big Piranha Plant is also featured in the [[Boost Rush]] level [[Piranha Plant Hideaway]]. A shortcut for this level is to have the player utilizing the [[Wii U]] GamePad rapidly tap on the Big Piranha Plant, creating room for the player to jump over its head, reaching the [[goal ring (New Super Mario Bros. U)|goal ring]]. Notably, [[Jungle of the Giants]] is the only level to feature the classic pipe-dwelling Big Piranha Plants, making this the first game to show them alongside the newer grounded variant.

====''New Super Luigi U''====
[[File:NSLU Giant Swing-Along Screenshot.jpg|thumb|left|[[Luigi]] encountering the Big Piranha Plants of [[Soda Jungle]].]]
Both forms of the Big Piranha Plant reappear in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''. [[Piranhas in the Dark]] introduces upside-down versions in dirt, and [[Giant Swing-Along]] introduces upside-down versions in pipes.

====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
[[File:Big Piranha Plant SM3DW.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|Mega Piranha Plant in ''Super Mario 3D World'']]
Mega Piranha Plants appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. Like normal-sized Piranha Plants in modern 3D games, these can be stomped to be defeated, but two stomps are required to do so, with the first stomp merely stunning them. This is their second appearance in a 3D ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' game.

In ''Bowser's Fury'', cat versions appear with the same appearance as regular-sized Cat Piranha Plants.
{{br|left}}

====''Super Mario Maker'' / ''Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS''====
Big Piranha Plants reappear in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]''. The player can enlarge a normal Piranha Plant with a [[Super Mushroom]], and it will transform into its larger variant.

====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
{{main|Big Poison Piranha Plant}}
While regular Big Piranha Plants do not appear in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', Big Poison Piranha Plants appear, where they can be found in the [[Wooded Kingdom]], the [[Metro Kingdom]], and the [[Dark Side]].

====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
Big Piranha Plants return in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', where they behave in a similar manner from its predecessor; additionally, they attack by lunging at the player in the ''Super Mario 3D World'' style.

===''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''===
In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', a regular Piranha Plant named [[Naval Piranha]] is transformed by [[Kamek]] into a giant-sized Piranha as a boss of [[World 3 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 3]].

===''Mario Golf: World Tour''===
Big Piranha Plants reappear as obstacles in ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]''. This is the first appearance of Big Piranha Plants in a ''[[Mario Golf (series)|Mario Golf]]'' game.

===''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''===
Exclusively in the [[Wii U]] version of ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', one Big Piranha Plant reappears in the bonus level, [[Shadow-Play Alley]].

===''Mario Kart'' series===
====''Mario Kart Arcade GP VR''====
[[File:MKAGPVR - Screen1.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Big Piranha Plants in ''Mario Kart Arcade GP VR'']]
Big Piranha Plants reappear in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP VR]]'', where they appear in the start of the track, where they bite down on patches of dirt making any racer who touches them spin out.

====''Mario Kart Tour''====
In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', Piranha Plants come in a range of sizes, though they are all labeled in-game as simply "Piranha Plant". Big Piranha Plants that reside in large pipes appear in [[Tour Paris Promenade|Paris Promenade]], Paris Promenade 2, and Paris Promenade 3. They are also usually added as stage hazards in the R, T and R/T variants of various courses (with [[RMX Choco Island 1|RMX Choco Island 1R/T]] featuring the largest Piranha Plant in the game), and are also often found in the [[Steer Clear of Obstacles]] bonus challenges. A variant that is found on the ground can be seen in [[SNES Choco Island 2|SNES Choco Island 2R/T]] and the Steer Clear of Obstacles bonus challenge on [[GCN Yoshi Circuit]].

====''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''====
Big Piranha Plants reappear in [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' – Booster Course Pass]] in {{classic-link|DS|Peach Gardens}} and {{classic-link|Tour|Paris Promenade}}, reprising their roles from ''Mario Kart Tour''.

===''Mario Party'' series===
====''Mario Party: The Top 100''====
A Big Piranha Plant appears in the ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'' version of [[Tug o' War]] where it eats the loser(s) that gets tugged into its jaws.

====''Mario Party Superstars''====
Big Piranha Plants reappear in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', being grown from large [[Piranha Pod]]s thrown by [[Lakitu]]s in [[Peach's Birthday Cake]]. If an opponent lands on the Event Space where the Big Piranha Plant is stationed, they lose a [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]] to the player that planted it. They also eat and spit out the losers except for the winner at the end of a game. In addition, one also reprises its role in [[Tug o' War]].

===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Big Piranha Plants (just called '''Big Piranhas''') are mentioned briefly by [[icaruspedia:Viridi|Viridi]] during [[Smash Taunt#Palutena's Guidance|Palutena's Guidance]] dialogue for [[Piranha Plant#Super Smash Bros. Ultimate|Piranha Plant]]. Unlike most other variations generally mentioned in order of appearance, they are listed amongst ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' debuts. [[Nipper Spore]]s, [[Big Fire Piranha]]s, [[Small Piranha]]s, and [[Fire Stalking Piranha Plant|Fire Stalking Piranha]]s are similarly listed out of order.

===''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''===
In the climax of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', a Big Piranha Plant briefly traps [[Invincible Mario]] and Invincible Luigi in its mouth, before they force it to spit them out.
