'''Punch Piranhas''' are a species of shoaling predator fish found in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. They live within the punch-filled pool over which the battle against [[Bashmaster]] in [[Juicy Jungle]] takes place. Such fish can be first seen in the boss fight's introduction, where they notice Bashmaster's popsicle falling in the lake and then voraciously assault it in groups.

'''Punch Piranhas''' are a species of shoaling predator fish found in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]]. They mainly appear in [[Punch Bowl]], the boss stage of [[Juicy Jungle]], and are first seen in the cutscene before the boss fight, voraciously consuming [[Bashmaster]]'s popsicle as it falls in the punch-filled pool. During the fight itself, Punch Piranhas swarm the [[Kong]]s if they fall in the pool, tossing them back while damaging them.


While not encountered there during gameplay, Punch Piranhas are implied by two unlockable dioramas to also exist in [[Sea Breeze Cove]] and [[Donkey Kong Island]]. In the {{file link|SeaBreezeCoveDiorama.jpg|Sea Breeze Cove diorama}}, [[Diddy Kong]] catches a Punch Piranha by using a fishing rod. At the bottom of the {{file link|DKIslandDiorama.jpg|Donkey Kong Island diorama}}, a school of Punch Piranhas can be seen frozen in ice, along with [[Mugly]].
Following the scene, the [[Kong]]s become able to interact with Punch Piranhas, which now serve the role of obstacles. Should the Kongs drop into the lake, a group of Punch Piranhas will start jumping out in that spot and hurl the characters back on the battle arena, taking away a heart from their health meter in the process. This prohibits swimming in the lake, or otherwise leaving the fight with Bashmaster. Likewise, Punch Piranhas cannot be destroyed.
 
It is implied by two dioramas in the game that, aside from Juicy Jungle, Punch Piranhas also live in the waters of [[Sea Breeze Cove]] and [[Donkey Kong Island]], although they are not encountered there during gameplay. In the [[:File:SeaBreezeCoveDiorama.jpg|Sea Breeze Cove diorama]], [[Diddy Kong]] catches a Punch Piranha using a fishing rod. At the bottom of the [[:File:DKIslandDiorama.jpg|Donkey Kong Island diorama]], a school of Punch Piranhas can be seen frozen in ice, along with [[Mugly]].
