Feed and Seed

Template:Minigame-infobox Feed and Seed is the Boss minigame against Piranha Plant in Mario Party DS.

Gameplay

The player gets 5 Health Points and Piranha Plant has 3. The Piranha Plant sucks in Bomb Seeds, and even players if they get too close. When it spits the Bomb Seeds out, players must catch one and then throw it back into the Piranha Plant's mouth when it tries to suck in more Bomb Seeds. With each successful throw, it sucks in one more Bomb Seed than the previous phase, and pulls the players in harder than before.

After the players throw a Bomb Seed in its mouth three times, Piranha Plant's vine limps down, causing his large head to fall flat on the ground. The player clears Wiggler's Garden and obtains the first Sky Crystal.
