Pianta Village

Pianta Village's landscape at night.

Pianta Village is the ancestral home of the Piantas on Isle Delfino in Super Mario Sunshine. It's built in a huge crater in the branches of a titanic palm tree to protect it from predators. It is run by the Pianta Village Mayor. The village's underside is composed of giant, bouncy mushrooms. The underside's ceiling is made of bamboo platforms, mesh, and catwalks. It's very tricky, because one slip up and Mario falls into the abyss below. A secret area is found in the underside, which is covered with yellow Goop. Mario has to bring a Yoshi here to get the Goop off. Surprisingly, Piantas (all of which are Chucksters) live in the secret area of the underside.

This level is unique in that the time changes between day and night. Odd-numbered episodes take place at night, while even-numbered episodes are during the day. The Piantas are awaiting the Fluff Festival, which draws nearer each episode, and finally takes place in Episode 8.

Mario starts out on a ledge of the crater, to get to the village Mario must cross a bamboo bridge or jump off onto the mushrooms. On the village side of the bridge is a Bees' nest, and sometimes a Yoshi Egg.

In order for Mario to travel to Pianta Village, he will need the Rocket Nozzle and thirdty Shine Sprites.
