Editing Talk:Tane Pakkun

==Name==
For future reference, the enemies  from this game have their name derived from their internal filename, not romanization. Like [[Brickman]] and other enemies. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 03:56, 14 December 2018 (EST)
:Brickman does, that's not our reference for Tane Pakkun though. But they could be the same thing. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:16, 14 December 2018 (EST)
...Did Viridi not mention this one in Smash Ultimate? [[Special:Contributions/67.181.156.89|67.181.156.89]] 21:39, January 30, 2024 (EST)

==Rename to Piranha Plant==
Considering how a lot of the MVDK enemies are now named after their internal file name, I suggest we rename this to Piranha Plant (Mario vs. Donkey Kong).--[[Special:Contributions/104.28.57.219|104.28.57.219]] 09:04, March 12, 2024 (EDT)
:Question is, do we consider this a "[[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/65#Decide how to handle the toy enemies from across the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series|toy]]" counterpart? [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 21:51, March 12, 2024 (EDT)
::It was specifically excluded from the proposal. I personally kinda wanna wait and see if any supplemental materials are created for the game that might help. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 22:36, March 12, 2024 (EDT)
:Would it be feasible to use a derived name for this enemy? Or no? The remake changed these enemies to spit out fireballs instead of seeds, so I'm really hesitant on using the "Seed Piranha Plant" derived name for this article. But I'd say let me know what you think. --[[User:CyonOfGaia|CyonOfGaia]] ([[User talk:CyonOfGaia|talk]]) 08:20, January 4, 2025 (EST)
::It was never really clear in the original if they were seeds or fireballs; note their predecessor in DK94 spits seeds, these spit vague orange things, and later Piranha Plants in the MvsDK series just spit fire. I think it's always been kinda open to interpretation. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 11:07, January 4, 2025 (EST)

== Did Viridi mention this Piranha Plant in Super Smash Bros Ultimate? ==

This question may be dumb since they don't have an official name, but if they weren't mentioned, I feel like they should be merged with Fire Piranhas. Their "seeds" are more fireballs than seeds, and this is more seen in the Switch remake, where you can accurately see fireballs.--[[User:ToadMushroom823|ToadMushroom823]] ([[User talk:ToadMushroom823|talk]]) 19:06, December 30, 2024 (EST)
:They weren't, and they probably are meant to be fireballs, but I don't think the guidance is a good metric there since plenty of others from miscellaneous games also didn't get mentioned. Seeing as how we treat the fire-spitting Piranha Plants in later MvsDK games, we may just want to merge this with Piranha Plant as well.
