| Get ready for a complicated post. I believe that Piranha Plants with petals have the ability to spit goop even if they're not covered in goop. Take the Piranha Plants from Delfino Plaza Court in Mario Power Tennis for example. They can spit goop because they have PETALS. Then, we go to Piranha Beans; they're PIranha Plants with "pants", leaves for arms, and stubby legs, just like Petey Piranha! So, I think that Petey Piranha is a Piranha Bean that was mutated so he gained the power to spit goop, and 1 or both of the Peteys from Daisy Garden are other Piranha Beans that were mutated. {{User|MarioComix}}

| Wait, how do we know he got mutated? And why does this matter so much? Maybe a piranha bean and Petey Piranha look similar, but Nintendo never officially said anything about whether they are related or not, so anything about the matter is just a fan theory and not official information. And I think you're talikg the two Petey Piranhas a little too seriously. Do the Petey Piranhas do anything, or are they just part of the course? The game company may have just liked the design of the character, and decided to put two in. There's too much confusion surrounding this (single) character, because of little things.

| Just a thought, but some plants live a REALLY long time, so the one in all games might be the same one. Also, I am not sure, but maybe Square Enix didn't really think about the illogical sense of two Peteys. Just a couple ideas. [[User: Super Joshi 7]]

| Okay, back to MH3o3. If we find textual evidence in an official source that says two "Peteys" or somehow indicates the name Petey in the plural, we can safely assume that Petey has become a species. This happens all the time. I remember when we had Toad, but then Paper Mario came around, and now we have Toad and Toads. However, is we can't find any evidence saying that both Piranha Plants are named Petey, we can't declare Petey to be a species. Maybe newer games will feature multiple Peteys, confirming the speculation caused by MH3o3. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] | | Okay, back to MH3o3.

| Either Petey is a kind of species, or Square Enix made a mistake when they added a second Petey Piranha. After all, it only makes sense to add another one, to make it fair. {{unsigned|Chaos}}

| In case you didn't notice, Mario characters tend to change size. Look at Bowser. In Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario 64 he was freaking huge, then in games like Mario Kart he's only slightly bigger than the other characters. [[User:Kobble|Kobble]]
| |
| | |
| == Member of the Koopa Troop? ==
| |
| | |
| Who's to say he is? I mean, it's possible considering he's been a boss character in many games, but I have not seen any hard evidence that he isn't just a lone character who gets in the way. In Sunshine he's just on top of the windmill and later asleep. He may have been in possession of the Shine Sprites, but they fled when the island got dirty and were not being held by Bowser, so Bowser could not have given it to Petey. Petey would have found it.
| |
| | |
| Petey is also not affiliated with Bowser in M&L:PiT (as far as I know).
| |
| | |
| Unless he is officially in NSMB and Super Princess Peach, I don't think it can be stated he is a follower of Bowser.
| |
| | |
| Anyone have further info on this?

| :He isn't in Brawl, as he knocks Mario away, and captures Peach and Zelda (if he was working for Bowser, he'd only go for Mario & Peach, but he went for Zelda also). {{User:MegaMario9910/sig}} There's a way that he was affiliated with Bowser in PiT. There was no proof that Petey was working for the Shroobs. Somehow, the dome in Gritzy Desert was built above his home, so any intruders he could a grasp onto, he would eat (like he did with Kylie and Peach). Petey was probably angry about the dome being built above the underground (which, was probably his home)....
| |
| | |
| I don't think he works for Bowser. He's probably free spirited, but fights Mario due to his temper. One day he might even help him! {{User:Jaffffey/sig}}

| | |
| He can ''still'' happen to have the key, like with the Shine Sprite when on top of the windmill in Bianco Hills.
| |
| And he'd fight anything when he gets disturbed by Mario or someone, so there's no reasoning that his attacking was planned. {{unsigned|Chaos}}

| == Petea Piranha's Japanese name is clearly distinct from that of Petey ==
| |
| Just so you know, in the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwi2PHblUqo Japanese version of ''Paper Mario: Color Splash''] finally clarified that Petea Piranha's actual name is clearly different from that of Petey. Even though the sprites used were clearly those of Petey (to which a tea bag label was added), the English name is a pun which is not present in the Japanese version (and the Italian one as well, for what is worth), so even though a whole page for the boss might be overkill, unless a developers' interview or other official material stating that Petea is Petey cones out, I think we should modify the page to clearly state that Petea is not Petey but reuses his sprites with modifications and remove the main quote. What is your opinion on this matter?--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 07:21, 22 April 2017 (EDT)
| |
| | |
| :Based on this information, it seems like Petea may just be a parody of the classic Petey Piranha. Think of it like this: his Japanese name '''Tea Pakkun''' may sound like '''Boss Pakkun''', but what if it's literally just that: "tea Piranha Plant" or "tea Piranha". So it's just a Piranha Plant that is a teabag. Then, in translation, instead of naming it "Tea Piranha Plant" or "Tea Piranha", they called it "Petea Piranha" as a throwback to the good ol' boss himself? While this may seem tedious, ''Super Mario Sunshine'' has its own [[King Boo (Super Mario Sunshine)|King Boo]] that was separated on the basis of a different appearance and a different Japanese name.<br> While splitting it is also possible, I think the best course of action would be to treat Petea as a separate character, but still mentioned on this page. For starters, this could be written similar to the [[Pokey#Super Mario 3D World|Pokey]] section on ''SM3DW'' (no Pokeys appear in this game, but Snow Pokeys do). For this page, it could be mentioned that a similar Petea Piranha character appears (can be split or not) in the game. My reason for this is that no other Piranha Plants in the series have appeared directly similar to Petey Piranha's design (the closest are the heads of the Galaxy [[Dino Piranha]]s, and the redesigned plants in ''Mario Power Tennis''), so I feel like some inspiration was certainly taken from Petey himself.

| == Split? ==
| |
| Shouldn't Petea Piranha be split? I mean, he has a different name in every region, and has a slightly changed appearance. Even though he's clearly meant to be Petey, I'd argue that he should still be split for the same reasons [[Mr. L]] has a separate page.

| ::Sorry for replying late, this case is even more extreme than that of Mr. L and Young Professor Elvin Gadd, as in both cases it is explicitly said in the game that they actually are the characters they are similar to, while here we don't really have this evidence, not even in the English localiztion that uses a name referencing Petey Piranha.

| | |
| :::The case is similar to [[King Boo (Super Mario Sunshine)|King Boo from ''Sunshine'']]: besides his Japanese name, all localised names found on the Wiki imply he's the same character as [[King Boo|established King Boo]], and he only appears for one boss fight. Due to this, '''if''' we take the localised names to imply that he's the same as King Boo, then he could have remained on the main King Boo page as a section. However, for Petea's case, all language names imply that he '''is''' different from Petey, and so, following the logic Petea should have his own page. (Basically, since ''Sunshine'' King Boo has his own page even though he is made out to be the same as normal King Boo, Petea should have his own page as he is made out to be separate from Petey.)

| :While ''BPK'' and ''B_PKF'', is indeed to be found, you can clearly see that in the internal string it is indeed referred to as 「ティーパックン」. ''zako_boss'' is used for minor bosses. You can find a string ''BossPakkun'' in ''as_btl_zako_boss_packun.bin'' but so you can find ''BossKameck'' in ''as_btl_zako_boss_kameck.bin'' as well - possibly due to the internal name being 「ボスカメック」. Ultimately, the abbreviations and that ''BossPakkun'' might indicate that it was initially inteded to be Petey, but the actual name found in these strings is not that of Petey. It is an odd case indeed, as the mismatch between files' strings and abbreviations and the Japanese name is mainly here to be found, but since these comes from the PAL version, we don't even have the reason of the name being just the displayed name - actually, the displayed name of 「ボスカメック」 is [https://youtu.be/OY5IISV7nK4?t=628 just 「カメック」 in the Japanese version!].--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 15:19, 23 October 2017 (EDT)

| :::We usually don't need to delve into this kind of classification - we'll just report that it's based on Petey Piranha based on the game's code and sprite used, despite being ultimately a different character due to changes to the 3D model that give it a different appearance and due to different name, this latter aspect being confirmed in the game's code as well. In any case, there were initially doubts from LinkTheLefty, I'm not sure if they are still against the split, in which case a proposal should be made, or if they are fine with the split now.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 23:14, 1 February 2019 (EST)

| ==Use the name "Petey Piranha" regarding Super Princess Peach==

| {{Proposal outcome|passed|7-0|Passed}}
| |
| I understand this might be a trickier one as the name "Boss P Plant" is used in-game for Petey Piranha in this game, however in the UK release (my version of the game, and yes I'm embarrassed to admit I have it), the name is "Petey Piranha" is used instead. I am proposing this because of our naming policy which is normally to prioritise American naming, however considering "Boss P Plant" is clearly a cheap translation and "Petey Piranha" is used in the other regional English version of the game (I wouldn't be proposing this if it wasn't) , I really think we can make an exception here.

| I was actually thinking a broader-scope proposal regarding the use of "corrected" English names in other regions as another instance of source priority exception could cover this anomaly better (for example, [[Talk:Mega Sledge Bro's Card Chaos|remaining instances of "Mega" Sledge Bro]], [[Kamek#Mario Party 9|Kamek/Magikoopa]], etc).

| : Does this really need a proposal? After all, the UK release corrected Boss P Plant to Petey Piranha but the other weird localizations (Mecha Spike Top, Cannon (Kaboomba) Bowser 2) were kept.

| == Petey's shorts ==
| |
| | |
| Just playing through Partners in Time currently, and one of the save dialogues (the ones that scroll text on the top screen) refers to Petey as "that diapered fiend". This really caught me off guard since I thought Petey wears shorts (and the wiki seems to corroborate this). Wondering if this is a weird localization thing, or if it actually has been a diaper this whole time? {{unsigned|Coralbeau}}
| |
| :It seems his profile in ''Mario Party Superstars'' calls it shorts, which is more recent, so we can probably note it by saying he wears shorts, although in ''Partners in Time'' they're referred to one time as a diaper.
