(Note: Unlike other characters who were released as downloadable content, Piranha Plant has a unique conversation rather than having a [[List of Palutena's Guidance conversations#Downloadable content characters|generic conversation]]; this may be due to Piranha Plant being developed simultaneously with the base game.)
