'''Munchers''' ("Black Pakkun" in Japan) are an indestructible [[species]] of [[Piranha Plant]]s. They first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and later appeared in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Unlike their white cousins, Muncher Plants come in black, depending on the location. They are almost completely invulnerable.

'''Munchers''' are [[List of enemies|enemies]] introduced in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They are an immobile, nearly invincible variety of [[Piranha Plant]]s. Munchers resemble [[Nipper Plant]]s more closely, and they are usually colored black. They often appear in groups covering part of the ground, acting like [[Spike (obstacle)|spikes]].
==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Bros. 3''====
{{multiframe|[[File:Munchers 2.png|129px]]|Munchers from the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' version of ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' (top) and from ''Super Mario World'' (bottom).|size=129|align=right}}
[[File:SMB3 Muncher.jpg|thumb|left|Artwork from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', showing the original design of Munchers]]
The Munchers of ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' are rendered as animated damaging foreground tiles, even while the game is paused, because the [[Family Computer]] and [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] hardware allows for up to only eight sprites per scanline. Munchers are depicted in their artwork as black with orange leaves, but in the game itself, they can come in other colors depending on the level. In the [[Super Mario All-Stars|first]] and [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|second remakes]], Munchers have green leaves with orange or blue heads, depending on the level. They are first encountered in [[World 5-3 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 5-3]], where a [[Goomba's Shoe]] is necessary to move across them.<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Power'' Volume 13|author=Tilden, Gail, et al.|page=46|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en|quote=Wearing [[Goomba's Shoe|Kuribo's Shoe]], you can walk on Munchers.}}</ref> All Munchers become [[coin]]s while the [[P Switch|Switch Block]] is active. Munchers transform into [[Empty Block]]s when tail-whipped, though not in the second remake.


Acting much like spikes would, touching a Muncher results in instant death. However, both the [[Kuribo's Shoe]] and any [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] can walk on them without harm. In a couple levels, they spring from thin pipes. The only way to cross a patch of Munchers is by acquiring a [[Starman]] or by carefully [[jump]]ing to the gaps between Muncher patches.
There are frozen Munchers in [[World 6-10]], and they are identifiable from the outline and reflection of the [[Ice Block]] that they are encased in. Frozen Munchers can be walked on but become active when hit by a [[fireball]], something alluded to by [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] at one point.<ref>{{cite|quote=Greetings, be careful in the Ice World. The creatures trapped in the ice will come to life if warmed. I have enclosed a jewel that helps protect you.|author=Princess Toadstool|title=''Super Mario Bros. 3''|date=1990|publisher=Nintendo|language=en}}</ref>


They also appear in ''[[Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land]]''. They are once again black and indestructible.
A different kind of Muncher appears in and out of [[small pipe]]s in the [[World 7-Piranha Plant 1|first]] and [[World 7-Piranha Plant 2|second]] {{world|7|piranhaplant}} stages of [[Pipe Land]]. They have blue leaves in the original. These Munchers are not affected by the player character touching the pipe, unlike [[Piranha Plant]]s. They are rendered two foreground objects with a separate four-frame animation (with the last frame of each being held for several moments), a harmful one for when it emerges and opens its mouth, and a harmless one for when it returns into its pipe. These Munchers do not become Empty Blocks if they are tail-whipped.
{{br|left}}


Munchers can become frozen if hit with an [[Ice Block]]. Frozen Munchers can be identified by the black ice block in which they are encased (in contrast to yellow ice blocks, which hold [[coins]]). They are harmless when frozen and act like platforms, but if one thaws a Muncher out with a [[fireball]], the Muncher will become active again. If [[Mario]] hits a [[P-Switch]], then thaws a frozen Muncher in an ice block, the Muncher will turn into a coin, the only way to kill them.
====''Super Mario World''====
Munchers appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They were redesigned to not have eyes as well as having their stem changed to yellow and their head to an oval shape. They cannot transform into Empty Blocks anymore. There is an unused function of [[Gray P Switch]]es having the ability to turn Munchers into [[coin]]s. Munchers do not damage [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] or [[Invincible Mario]] if walked on.


There is often confusion on what a Muncher exactly is. They are about the size of a [[Nipper Plant]], but are firmly planted in the ground like a Piranha Plant. They also have eyes much like a [[Nipper Plant]]. They appear to be a sub-species and not part of the normal evolution chain of a Piranha Plant. In ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'', these SMB3 enemies were recolored, greatly resembling a [[Nipper Plant]] and not "black" like the Japanese namesake.
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
[[File:NSMBW Muncher Plant Screenshot.png|thumb|Screenshot from ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', showing both regular and frozen Munchers]]
Munchers appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They are encountered only in [[World 9-7 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 9-7]], inside of ice blocks covering most of the floor. Despite this they are not affected by [[Ice Ball|ice balls]]. A [[fireball]] can thaw a trapped Muncher.


In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', Munchers appear in the level 9-7 where they are frozen in ice. They cover most of the floor and can be quite dangerous if the player(s) don't keep moving as all of the other enemies in the level shoot fireballs. The player(s) can also melt them if they have a [[Fire Flower]].
Hacking the game reveals that unlike in ''Super Mario World'', Yoshi cannot safely walk on Munchers or [[Spike Trap]]s.<ref>{{cite|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnUMLLINtX0&t=381s|title=New Super Mario Bros Wii - All Castles with Yoshi|author=ProsafiaGaming|date=February 4, 2018|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=May 18, 2024|language=en|timestamp=06:21}}</ref> This behavior is unused in the game proper since no level has both of them.


<br clear=all>
====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====
{{Super Mario Bros. 3}}
Munchers appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and their [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|port]]. They are based on their appearance from the previous game but cannot be trapped in ice blocks like before. In ''New Super Mario Bros. U'', Munchers are found in [[Spinning-Star Sky]] and [[Thrilling Spine Coaster]]. In ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', Munchers appear in the levels [[Lemmy's Lights-Out Castle]], [[Cooligan Shrooms]], and [[Wiggler Rodeo]].
 
====''Super Mario Maker'' / ''Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Super Mario Maker 2''====
Munchers are course elements in every style of ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|its port]], and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They are rendered as sprites instead of objects. Munchers were given uniquely designed ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' sprites for the first time, and the ''Super Mario World'' style alters their original sprite to give them yellow lips or teeth, as well as a blue shading. Munchers can be placed anywhere in courses, and they retain their usual function. Munchers are affected by gravity, so they fall if not on top of any ground. Munchers can defeat most enemies just by falling onto them. Shaking a Muncher produces only a purple-black cloud of smoke at first, but shaking it repeatedly produces [[fly (Mario Paint)|flies]]; as of [[Super Mario Maker#Version 1.20|version 1.20]] of the original ''Super Mario Maker'' and later games, [[King Watinga]] emerges if the Muncher is shook after the flies have emerged. A Muncher can become larger by dragging a [[Super Mushroom]] on it. Munchers can be made to spawn from [[Lakitu]]s, [[Warp Pipe]]s, [[? Block]]s, [[Brick Block]]s, or [[Bill Blaster]]s. Contact with a Muncher on any side damages Mario, unless he is wearing a Goomba's Shoe, during which only hitting a Muncher with Mario's head will damage him. Mario can also use [[Buzzy Shell]]s to bounce them up from below. Munchers can be defeated by a [[POW Block]], a fast fly down while [[Cape Mario]], a ground pound from a big [[Goomba's Shoe|Goomba's Stiletto]], and the [[Spiny Shell (red)|Spiny Shell]] from below. Yoshi can walk safely across Munchers in any style. Munchers are heavy enough to press a [[P Switch]] without needing to be enlarged with a Super Mushroom, and also defeat any enemy (including [[Bowser]]) should they fall over it.
 
====''Super Mario Run''====
Munchers appear in ''[[Super Mario Run]]''. Yoshi is the only player character who can walk on Munchers without taking damage.
 
====''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''====
Munchers appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''. They are encountered mainly on [[Muncher Fields]]. They are the same other than also lining the walls and ceiling. The playable Yoshis can walk across Munchers safely. A [[Red POW Block]] can defeat them.
 
===''Nintendo Adventure Books''===
Munchers appear as scenery in ''[[Double Trouble (book)|Double Trouble]]'', where it is mentioned that [[Roy|Roy Koopa]] has parked the [[Airship|Doomship]] above a patch of them in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]].
 
Some Munchers are a part of the first International Mushroom Games event in ''[[Leaping Lizards]]''. If Roy's [[magic carpet|flying carpet]] is sabotaged by a [[Rocky Wrench]], he will fall into a patch of the Munchers, but they consider Roy to be unappetizing and leave him alone.
 
Mario and Luigi have to zig-zag through patches of Munchers if they follow Princess Toadstool to the [[Koopahari Desert]] in ''[[Pipe Down!]]''. They are similarly featured in this capacity in ''[[Dinosaur Dilemma]]''.
 
There is a patch of Munchers in the desert surrounding a tree inhabited by [[Cheep Cheep]]s in ''[[Flown the Koopa]]''. They will swarm Luigi if he decides to get the International Dino-Flying Derby tickets from the tree. More Munchers are in the swamp with [[Magikoopa]]'s [[Fortress]].
 
===''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3''===
[[File:MuncherWL.png|frame|right]]
Munchers appear in ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]''. They retain their original black coloration and behavior. Munchers are invulnerable, stationary, and populate the ground in long arrays. They are encountered in earlier stages.
 
===''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''===
Although Munchers do not directly appear in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' or ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', several appear along the bottom adverts in some courses for [[Green Service]].

Munchers are enemies introduced in Super Mario Bros. 3. They are an immobile, nearly invincible variety of Piranha Plants. Munchers resemble Nipper Plants more closely, and they are usually colored black. They often appear in groups covering part of the ground, acting like spikes.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario Bros. 3[edit]

Artwork of three Munchers for Super Mario Bros. 3
Artwork from Super Mario Bros. 3, showing the original design of Munchers

The Munchers of Super Mario Bros. 3 are rendered as animated damaging foreground tiles, even while the game is paused, because the Family Computer and Nintendo Entertainment System hardware allows for up to only eight sprites per scanline. Munchers are depicted in their artwork as black with orange leaves, but in the game itself, they can come in other colors depending on the level. In the first and second remakes, Munchers have green leaves with orange or blue heads, depending on the level. They are first encountered in World 5-3, where a Goomba's Shoe is necessary to move across them.[1] All Munchers become coins while the Switch Block is active. Munchers transform into Empty Blocks when tail-whipped, though not in the second remake.

There are frozen Munchers in World 6-10, and they are identifiable from the outline and reflection of the Ice Block that they are encased in. Frozen Munchers can be walked on but become active when hit by a fireball, something alluded to by Princess Toadstool at one point.[2]

A different kind of Muncher appears in and out of small pipes in the first and second World 7-Piranha Plant stages of Pipe Land. They have blue leaves in the original. These Munchers are not affected by the player character touching the pipe, unlike Piranha Plants. They are rendered two foreground objects with a separate four-frame animation (with the last frame of each being held for several moments), a harmful one for when it emerges and opens its mouth, and a harmless one for when it returns into its pipe. These Munchers do not become Empty Blocks if they are tail-whipped.

Super Mario World[edit]

Munchers appear in Super Mario World. They were redesigned to not have eyes as well as having their stem changed to yellow and their head to an oval shape. They cannot transform into Empty Blocks anymore. There is an unused function of Gray P Switches having the ability to turn Munchers into coins. Munchers do not damage Yoshi or Invincible Mario if walked on.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii[edit]

Screenshot from New Super Mario Bros. Wii, showing both regular and frozen Munchers

Munchers appear in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. They are encountered only in World 9-7, inside of ice blocks covering most of the floor. Despite this they are not affected by ice balls. A fireball can thaw a trapped Muncher.

Hacking the game reveals that unlike in Super Mario World, Yoshi cannot safely walk on Munchers or Spike Traps.[3] This behavior is unused in the game proper since no level has both of them.

New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Luigi U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe[edit]

Munchers appear in New Super Mario Bros. U, New Super Luigi U, and their port. They are based on their appearance from the previous game but cannot be trapped in ice blocks like before. In New Super Mario Bros. U, Munchers are found in Spinning-Star Sky and Thrilling Spine Coaster. In New Super Luigi U, Munchers appear in the levels Lemmy's Lights-Out Castle, Cooligan Shrooms, and Wiggler Rodeo.

Super Mario Maker / Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS / Super Mario Maker 2[edit]

Munchers are course elements in every style of Super Mario Maker, its port, and Super Mario Maker 2. They are rendered as sprites instead of objects. Munchers were given uniquely designed Super Mario Bros. sprites for the first time, and the Super Mario World style alters their original sprite to give them yellow lips or teeth, as well as a blue shading. Munchers can be placed anywhere in courses, and they retain their usual function. Munchers are affected by gravity, so they fall if not on top of any ground. Munchers can defeat most enemies just by falling onto them. Shaking a Muncher produces only a purple-black cloud of smoke at first, but shaking it repeatedly produces flies; as of version 1.20 of the original Super Mario Maker and later games, King Watinga emerges if the Muncher is shook after the flies have emerged. A Muncher can become larger by dragging a Super Mushroom on it. Munchers can be made to spawn from Lakitus, Warp Pipes, ? Blocks, Brick Blocks, or Bill Blasters. Contact with a Muncher on any side damages Mario, unless he is wearing a Goomba's Shoe, during which only hitting a Muncher with Mario's head will damage him. Mario can also use Buzzy Shells to bounce them up from below. Munchers can be defeated by a POW Block, a fast fly down while Cape Mario, a ground pound from a big Goomba's Stiletto, and the Spiny Shell from below. Yoshi can walk safely across Munchers in any style. Munchers are heavy enough to press a P Switch without needing to be enlarged with a Super Mushroom, and also defeat any enemy (including Bowser) should they fall over it.

Super Mario Run[edit]

Munchers appear in Super Mario Run. Yoshi is the only player character who can walk on Munchers without taking damage.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder[edit]

Munchers appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. They are encountered mainly on Muncher Fields. They are the same other than also lining the walls and ceiling. The playable Yoshis can walk across Munchers safely. A Red POW Block can defeat them.

Nintendo Adventure Books[edit]

Munchers appear as scenery in Double Trouble, where it is mentioned that Roy Koopa has parked the Doomship above a patch of them in the Mushroom Kingdom.

Some Munchers are a part of the first International Mushroom Games event in Leaping Lizards. If Roy's flying carpet is sabotaged by a Rocky Wrench, he will fall into a patch of the Munchers, but they consider Roy to be unappetizing and leave him alone.

Mario and Luigi have to zig-zag through patches of Munchers if they follow Princess Toadstool to the Koopahari Desert in Pipe Down!. They are similarly featured in this capacity in Dinosaur Dilemma.

There is a patch of Munchers in the desert surrounding a tree inhabited by Cheep Cheeps in Flown the Koopa. They will swarm Luigi if he decides to get the International Dino-Flying Derby tickets from the tree. More Munchers are in the swamp with Magikoopa's Fortress.

Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3[edit]

Muncher

Munchers appear in Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3. They retain their original black coloration and behavior. Munchers are invulnerable, stationary, and populate the ground in long arrays. They are encountered in earlier stages.

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[edit]

Although Munchers do not directly appear in Mario Kart 8 or Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, several appear along the bottom adverts in some courses for Green Service.

Mario Tennis Aces[edit]

Munchers appear in Mario Tennis Aces. They are located in the background of the Ancient Altar while the player battles Petey Piranha.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]

Munchers are mentioned briefly by Viridi during Palutena's Guidance dialogue for Piranha Plant in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
