Petey Piranha appears in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'' as the first boss of the game's story mode, fought in the mission [[Forest Monster]]. When Mario enters the [[Ancient Altar]] in search of a [[Power Stone]], Petey Piranha falls from above and attacks. Once the match starts, a Piranha Plant will serve the ball and the rally between Mario and Petey Piranha begins. Every time Petey Piranha rallies the ball, he loses a bit of health. Whenever Petey Piranha loses a full meter, he will fall over and his bellybutton will be exposed, which Mario needs to attack with a [[Zone Shot]]. Failing to hit the bellybutton will cause Petey Piranha to recover a bit of health and stand back up. Petey Piranha has three meters of health, indicated by hearts, and whenever he loses one, he will send out groups of tornadoes Mario has to avoid or use [[Trick Shot]]s to jump over. Petey Piranha is also capable of Zone Shots that can end up breaking Mario's racket in one hit. To defeat Petey Piranha, Mario has to drain all of his health within 300 seconds, and failing to rally a ball will cause some time to be lost. | Petey Piranha appears in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'' as the first boss of the game's story mode, fought in the mission [[Forest Monster]].

Petey Piranha has been playable since the version 2.1.0 update. Petey Piranha has been available for all players since January 1, 2019, although he could be unlocked earlier by participating in the December 2018 singles online tournament. He retains his Powerful classification, though unlike in previous installments, he does not use a tennis racket, instead using his leaves to hit the ball, making him the only character in the tennis games to not use a tennis racket. Due to this, when his "racket" breaks, Petey Piranha's leaf instead receives a bandage and he falls to the floor in a unique animation that resembles his animation when he loses a meter of health in his boss fight. His horizontal Trick Shot, Fluttering Fury, and his vertical Trick Shot, Spin 'n' Slap, both involve him flying to the ball to hit it. His [[Special Shot (Mario Tennis Aces)|Special Shot]], Vicious Twister, has him fly into the air and use a pair of tornadoes to propel the ball towards himself so he can hit it. | Petey Piranha has been playable since the version 2.1.0 update.

Petey Piranha is an unlockable captain in ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]''. He | Petey Piranha is an unlockable captain in ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]''. He is a Power player, giving him a skill at tackling and shooting, whilst not having a good pass or running ability. His [[Super Ability]], [[Mud Slinger!]], causes him to spit mud on the ground, which slows everyone down but him. He can use this move up to four times in one Super Ability. Petey Piranha's deke involves him rapidly banging his head backwards and forwards to prevent opponents from stealing the ball. In his [[Mega Strike]], Petey is enclosed in a large bud, while a stem sprouts from the ground and takes him above the stage, where he spits the ball at the goal. Petey is the last character to be unlocked, specifically by beating the final cup, the [[Striker Cup]], which involves beating Petey in the [[Stormship Stadium]] stage. Petey is the only character who does not appear in the opening cinematic. | ||
His theme music when he scores a point is calypso. One of his winning animations involves him doing the limbo with his team players, while one of his "losing animations" (sometimes when the opponent scores a point) Petey walks angrily to one of the opponents while others are running and screaming, eats them, and lets them back out, covering the player in mud. Sometimes, the second losing animation will include some sidekicks running and tripping (or in [[Monty Mole]]'s case, he attempts to dig) or cowering in fear. Petey is the only captain to wear a helmet in this game. | |||

In this manga, he is apparently a mother of the Tongue Piranha children, and he holds a shard of the [[Cobalt Star]] in his mouth, as a replacement for a tooth. Petey talks in a sweet, feminine way, making Mario and Luigi comment on how nice he is. Mario and Luigi anger him, however, by attempting to snatch the Cobalt Star Shard. After a fight, however, Petey gives it to the four brothers. | ||

Petey is the [[boss]] of [[Rumble Volcano]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. Like the other bosses, he gains power from a [[Royal Sticker]] that he took and ate from a tribe of [[Spear Guy]]s who described him as gluttonous.

Upon first sighting [[Mario]] and [[Kersti]], he swallows Kersti whole, forcing [[Mario]] to go after him. Presumably during this time, he also ate several [[Koopa Troopa]]s and [[Sticker]]s, as he coughs up [[Dry Bones]] and random stickers during the battle. Once found, he immediately attacks [[Mario]]. | ||
He mainly fights by flying with his leaves before slamming down on Mario. He can also spit out a ball of goo at Mario which can sometimes cause him to gain the "[[soggy]]" status effect if not blocked. After losing [[Heart Point|HP]], he uses his leaves to spin around rapidly to attack Mario but doing so makes him [[dizzy]]. Sometimes, Mario gets [[dizzy]] if he is hit by this attack. If Petey is attacked during his dizzy state; his weak point (his belly button) becomes exposed, which leaves him vulnerable to serious damage from [[Jump]] attacks. Once his belly button is attacked, he spits out [[Kersti]], as well as several Jump stickers, and a [[Dry Bones]]. Petey has 300 HP. When he has 100 HP left, he begins a more powerful attack when he bites [[Mario]] three times. Each time he bites [[Mario]], he deals 7 damage. Once he is defeated, he explodes into confetti and reveals the Green [[Royal Sticker]].
