'''Piranha Plorps''' are [[Piranha Plant]]s that have a head that resembles a human heart, and a vein as a stalk. They are found inside [[Bowser's body]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its [[Reissue|remake]] ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', encountered in the [[Energy Hold]]. They spit poison at [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]. One of its attacks includes fogging the bottom screen and spitting red and green blobs of poison at the top screen. The color of these blobs indicates which Bro. will get hit: red for Mario, and green for Luigi. The attack can be countered by using the [[hammer]]. The Piranha Plorp will also try spitting a purple stream of poison at the bros. The number of lumps that rise up its throat indicates how many passes the jet of goo will make. This attack is avoided by [[jump]]ing. If Mario and Luigi are hit by this attack, there is a high possibility of becoming [[Poison (status effect)|Poisoned]]. The fastest way to defeat one is by using [[Fire Flower]]s, as they are weak to fire.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Piranha Plorps are mentioned briefly by [[icaruspedia:Viridi|Viridi]] during [[List of Palutena's Guidance conversations|Palutena's Guidance]] dialogue for [[Piranha Plant#Super Smash Bros. Ultimate|Piranha Plant]].

Its name is a portmanteau of "Piranha Plant" and "[[wiktionary:blorp|blorp]]", an onomatopoeic that suggests the splashing from a volume of semiliquid material (e.g. blood, which is normally transported through veins and the heart; or poison, which the Piranha Plorp uses to attack with).
