Revision as of 23:04, February 26, 2017

Template:Species-infobox Big Fire Piranha Plants (also known as Big Venus Fire Traps[1], formerly known as Piranha Flowers[2][3]) are enemies first appearing in Super Mario 64. They are Fire Piranha Plants with one big difference: Big Fire Piranha Plants have bloomed to an enlarged state, and their fireballs are often comparatively larger as well.

In Super Mario 64 and its remake, Super Mario 64 DS, they are the target of the first mission of Tiny-Huge Island: Pluck the Piranha Flower. Five of them appear in this mission. Like regular Fire Piranha Plants in this game, they blend in the grass at first. When Mario approaches, they grow in size at an alarming rate, spit a fireball, then quickly shrink back to their invulnerable selves. All of them appear in one area, and they must be punched to obtain a Power Star. In Super Mario 64 DS, another way to deal with them is by using a Super Mushroom hidden in one of the three wooden pegs in the same area.

In subsequent appearances, they can be defeated by shooting three fireballs at them or by using a Super Star. In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, only two are found in World 2-3. One reappears in New Super Mario Bros. 2, in World 5-6. Rather than shooting large fireballs, they shoot out normal-sized ones like their smaller counterparts.

After an absence in New Super Mario Bros. U, they reappear in New Super Luigi U in Piranhas in the Dark, Slippery Rope Ladders, Light-Up-Lift Tower, and Rising Piranhas.

They can appear in Super Mario Maker if the player enlarges a Fire Piranha Plant with a mushroom.

Although they are about same size as Big Piranha Plants, Big Venus Fire Traps have not used pipes.

Big Fire Piranha Plants also appear in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, where they temporarily prevent Bowser from passing in Peach's Castle.
