'''Piantas''' are a group of island-dwelling people that debuted in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. They are humanoid, appear in a variety of colors, and sport small palm trees growing out of the top of their heads. Their name means "plant" in Italian. Piantas typically wear grass skirts or grass dresses, although other Piantas have been seen wearing more conventional attires. Piantas are generally laid back and friendly, yet they also have a fairly short temper. Despite their placid temperament, they also boast impressive strength.
 
The '''Piantas''' are a sentient [[species]] of people found on [[Isle Delfino]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. They somewhat resemble [[humans]]; however, Piantas are much larger and can have pink, green, brown, purple, red, orange, yellow, or blue skin. Piantas also have small palm tress growing out of the top of their heads, indicating that they may have come from tropical plants. Typically, Piantas wear grass skirts or grass dresses. Piantas are generally laid back, quite strong, and friendly. However, they also have a fairly big temper. They also Beyond ''Super Mario Sunshine'', Piantas have appeared as a recurring species in many spin-off games and also appeared in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.

[[File:Super mario galaxy two pic 07.jpg|thumb|left|225px|Different species of Piantas.]]
In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', Piantas share their island home with the [[Noki]]s. While the Nokis mostly live in [[Noki Bay]], the Piantas mainly reside in [[Pianta Village]]. However, while Pianta Village is their primary home, Piantas live all over the island. Many Piantas make a living by producing and selling [[fruit]]s in small markets in [[Delfino Plaza]]. When sprayed with [[F.L.U.D.D.|FLUDD]] or otherwise gotten wet, many of them shake off the water, then shout angrily at [[Mario]]. They also shout at him if he jumps on them.

Piantas love fruit, so there will always be a substantial demand for fruit in the island's economy.


[[Chuckster|Certain Piantas]] can throw Mario. He can sometimes use this to his advantage by having a Pianta toss him to higher ledges and cliffs or across pits.
Piantas are also a very strong species as they can toss [[Mario]] with ease. One Pianta tells Mario that these Piantas are called '''Chucksters'''. Mario can sometimes use this to his advantage by having a Pianta toss him to high ledges and cliffs.

Piantas appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' in one galaxy, the [[Starshine Beach Galaxy]], which seems to be based on the different areas from [[Isle Delfino]]. They are the only friendly characters not to have a representative on [[Starship Mario]]. The Piantas that appear are all male, and their role is similar to that of the Piantas from ''Super Mario Sunshine'', [[Chuckster|hurling Mario]] to various spots; Mario does not need to initiate a conversation in order to be thrown. Like in ''Super Mario Sunshine'', jumping onto a Pianta results in him yelling at Mario.

In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', Piantas are one of the many peoples living in [[Rogueport]]. Here, the attitude of the Piantas is different, and they are organized in the criminal organization known as the [[Pianta syndicate]], led by [[Don Pianta]], and later [[Frankie]]. They have control of Rogueport's west side, and are rivaling with the [[Robbo Thieves]] led by [[Ishnail]], who operate on the east side.

[[File:PiantaRed-Batting-MSS.png|thumb|300px| Red Pianta gets set to bat in ''Mario Super Sluggers''.]]
Piantas are playable characters in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. All of the playable Piantas are male gendered.
Piantas are playable characters in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'' for the first time. In both installments, all the playable Piantas are males, come in the blue, red, and yellow variants, and have the [[Laser Beam]] ability. The male Red Pianta is more magenta-colored than red in the ''Mario Baseball'' series. In ''Mario Super Sluggers'', while the Piantas share good chemistry with the [[Toad (species)|Toads]] and [[Toadsworth]], the Nokis have good chemistry with [[Toadette]], whose chemistry is neutral with the Piantas. In a similar manner, the Toads and Toadsworth have neutral chemistry with the Nokis. Both of them have good chemistry with [[Mario]]. Their bats are trees.
 
In ''Mario Superstar Baseball'', Piantas are the weakest batters among all the Power characters, with the Red Pianta featuring slightly better batting than the other Pianta colors (rivaling [[King Boo]]). They are also decent pitchers, but have poor fielding skills, and are very slow runners.


In ''Mario Super Sluggers'', all three Piantas have their batting skills improved, making it easier for them to score home runs. They are still rather slow, and they are still poor fielders. Their pitching is also slightly weaker, although the blue Pianta's pitching remains unchanged.

Piantas also appear in both ''Mario Football'' games: ''[[Mario Smash Football]]'' and ''[[Mario Strikers Charged Football]]''.

In ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games]]'', Piantas are featured in the [[Snow Day Street Hockey]] event, both on the Main Street rink, where they appear from windows after a puck is shot into their box to return it as a [[Red Shell|Red]] or [[Green Shell]], and the Market Street rink, where they appear behind the fruit stands but do not affect gameplay. In the [[Wii U]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games (Wii U)|Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games]]'', a blue male Pianta runs the Mario item stand on [[Copacabana Beach]].

Piantas make a few non-physical appearances in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', a male and female Pianta both have their own [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', a group of Piantas appear as a Novice-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]], and using it equips the fighter with a [[Banana Gun]] when starting a battle. The spirit battle takes place on the [[Delfino Plaza (stage)|Delfino Plaza]] stage, featuring several [[Kirby]]s of varying colors meant to simulate Piantas.

==Trivia==
{{Pianta}}
[[File:SMS Prerelease Crates Delfino Plaza.png|thumb|A black Pianta as seen in a pre-release screenshot of ''Super Mario Sunshine'']]
*In [[Shadow Mario Revisited|Episode 7]] of [[Ricco Harbor]], a blue Pianta near the fish market uses one of the voice clips reserved for [[Noki]]s. An orange Pianta next to the Pianta-shaped tree in [[Roller Coaster Balloons|Episode 8]] of [[Pinna Park]] does the same. Conversely, a few Nokis will occasionally use a voice clip reserved for Piantas. This appears to be a developmental oversight.
*Black and white Piantas were included in an [[List of Super Mario Sunshine pre-release and unused content#Early builds|early build]] of ''Super Mario Sunshine''. Several other unused color variants of Piantas were also discovered in the game's files.
*In the ''[[Super Mario 3D All-Stars]]'' version of ''Super Mario Sunshine'', Piantas wearing glasses also have them placed behind their eyes rather than in front of them.<ref>{{cite|url=x.com/MarioBrothBlog/status/1331323880066215937|title=The Super Mario 3D All-Stars version of Super Mario Sunshine introduces a very specific glitch not present in the original release: the eyes of the Piantas in Sirena Beach are layered on top of their glasses (left, middle).
