Piranhabons,[1] also known as Goros,[2] are large Piranha Plants covered in goop appearing only in Super Mario Sunshine. Their name comes from the name of chocolate balls known as bonbons, which Piranhabons slightly resemble, but they are modeled after Petey Piranha's head (more so in early versions). Piranhabons roll along the ground, leaving behind a trail of goop as they do so. They run over Mario without stopping if he is in their way. If Mario sprays them with FLUDD, he can clean the goop off them, though they still leave goop behind as they travel. Piranhabons splatter on the ground when jumped on, leaving behind a puddle of goop.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Piranhabons are mentioned briefly by Viridi during Palutena's Guidance dialogue for Piranha Plant.
