Jumping Piranha Plants return in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', now able to breathe fire like their fiery variants, and are found in the [[Spring of Jungle Mist]]. They can also attack Mario with Bite and Bite Barrage similarly to other Piranha Plant variants in the game. Also like them, they cannot be jumped on unless Mario uses the [[Iron Boots]] or their variants.
