The Prehistoric Piranha is a large boss enemy in the upcoming video game Super Mario Galaxy. The boss lives in the Egg Planet Galaxy. It is inside an egg when Mario first encounters it. It's egg cracked when Mario crashes into it with the power of a Boost Star. The Prehistoric Piranha then starts moving around from inside the egg, thus starting a battle.
Appearance
It is quite notable that the Prehistoric Piranha's head looks like the popular boss Petey Piranha's head, though the body is much different. The Prehistoric Piranha's body beneath the Piranha Plant head is that of a dinosaur's, with a green hue. Its tail has a brown orb at the end of it with texture like some sort of seed. Interestingly, when it first breaks out of the egg it's head is purple, but when enraged it turns red with anger, and when it is defeated it turns sickly pale.
Combat
When Mario smashes into the egg containing the Prehistoric Piranha the egg cracks a little and the tail pops out. The bottom of the egg breaks open so the Prehistoric Piranha can move about while still in the egg. Mario must run up to it's tail as it is walking around and do a star spin. This will cause the tail to fly back and smash the rest of the egg open. The Prehistoric Piranha is now fully revealed and starts running around the planet. Mario must hit it's tail again so that some petals are knocked off it's head. Now enraged, the Prehistoric Piranha stomps around the planet, but it is hit by Mario one more time. With no more petals, the Prehistoric turns a sickly color and explodes, revealing a star.
