'''Piranha Plants''' are enemies found in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. They are the strongest of all [[Piranha Plant]]s and like to live in [[Warp Pipe|pipes]], as indicated in the Tattle Log, despite the fact that no Piranha Plants in this game appear in pipes (though this more likely references the regular Piranha Plants from the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]]).

==History==
===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
Piranha Plants have the second-highest statistical attack power in the game, exceeded only by an [[Amazy Dayzee]], which is 20. They also have absurdly high [[Heart Point|HP]], only being beaten out by a handful of non-bosses, such as [[Dark Craw]]s and [[Dark Koopatrol]]s. Despite their toughness, they are easily put to sleep, incapacitating them for a few turns. They also have a good chance to be confused, possibly making them attack other enemies with massive strength.

Piranha Plants are rare in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', found only in the [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]] in floors 81-89.

===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', "''Killer Packun''" is mentioned briefly by [[icaruspedia:Viridi|Viridi]] during the Japanese [[List of Palutena's Guidance conversations|Palutena's Guidance]] dialogue for [[Piranha Plant]]. It does not get a respective mention in the English dialogue, like [[Fire Nipper Plant]]. If the game is set to Simplified or Traditional Chinese or Korean (which use the Japanese voice set), the corresponding name for ''Killer Packun'' is referred to in English as simply "Piranha Plant".

==Trivia==
*The respective internal file names for this Piranha Plant and [[Piranha Plant#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Pale Piranha]]s (considered the "normal" Piranha Plants for this game in Japan) indicate that at some point in development, these Piranha Plants were intended to be the "base" version of Piranha Plant while the final game's Pale Piranha was intended as a variant of it, explaining the usage of the original coloration as well as the English localization calling them "Piranha Plants" but acknowledging them as different from the "usual" Piranha Plants.<ref>''c_pakflwr'' and ''c_pakflwr_t'', respective file names for Piranha Plants and Pale Piranhas in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''</ref>
