Piranha Plants return in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''. The normal type is encountered in the first three worlds, but levels from [[World 4-1 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 4-1]] onward replace them with the red type. The red variation is faster and still emerges from its pipe if the player character stands by it, but not if they are on top. There are Piranha Plants that emerge from upside-down pipes, and they are first encountered in [[World 5-1 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 5-1]].

Piranha Plants are a species in ''[[Mario Party 2]]''. A three-legged Piranha Plant is encountered in [[Mini-Game Park]], chasing a butterfly, until the player purchases a certain number minigames from [[Woody]], then the Piranha Plant gives the player the minigames [[Dungeon Dash]] and [[Rainbow Run (minigame)|Rainbow Run]] before leaving. Piranha Plants are background elements in [[Bowser Land]], where one is near some red Warp Pipes, and [[Space Land]], where two are inside of a glass dome. A Piranha Plant is an obstacle in the minigame [[Toad in the Box]], where it stuns the player character if summoned from a rotating block.

Piranha Plants are a species in the minigames [[Storm Chasers]] and [[Winner's Wheel]], as well as a partner in Duel Mode in ''[[Mario Party 3]]''. The Piranha Plants in Storm Chasers are watered by chasing a moving cloud, and those in Winner's Wheel spectate, dancing if the player character wins. The three-legged Piranha Plant in Duel Mode is partnered with [[Waluigi]] by default, and it has an attack power of 3, one health point, a salary of five coins, and sometimes provides an additional die with 1-3 after rolling.

====''Mario & Luigi: Brothership''====
Piranha Plants appear as enemies in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]'' on [[Skorcheen Island]] alongside [[Glohm Piranha Plant]]s. In battle, Piranha Plants can spit out a spiked ball and blow it in the air similar to a Ptooie. If a Piranha Plant is attacked while it is blowing a spiked ball, the spiked ball falls on it and deals 50 damage. Otherwise, the Piranha Plant blows the spiked ball towards a bro. who must counter with the hammer.
Piranha Plants can also attack by lunging themselves at a bro. which must be repelled with the hammer, although the Piranha Plant may attack several times in one turn. All Piranha Plants in the battle may each move around and spit a fireball at the closest bro.; the order the Piranha Plants attack is the order they popped out of the ground prior to attacking.
