There are two main species of '''Putrid Piranha''' in the ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' series. They are found in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', and ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''.
Just like the original [[Piranha Plant]], the ''Paper Mario'' variety is red with white spots. They are located on [[Lavalava Island]] and in the depths of [[Mt. Lavalava]]. However, the Putrid Piranhas found in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door'' and ''Super Paper Mario'' are yellow with red spots. These can be found in either [[Keelhaul Key]] or [[The Land of the Cragnons]].
The Putrid Pirahna is a little bigger than the average Piranha Plant and are best known for their nasty poison breath. Their first appearance was in [[Jade Jungle]], in Paper Mario, when they attacked baby orange Yoshi.

Putrid Piranhas reappear in the sequel of ''Paper Mario'' as well and can be found on [[Keelhaul Key]]. Instead of being red with white spots, they are yellow with red spots. In addition, their teeth are purple. Like their Lavalava relatives, the Putrid Piranha has glands that turn their breath into a lethal poison.

Putrid Piranha, Paper Mario

There are two main species of Putrid Piranha in the Mario series. They are found in Paper Mario, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, and Super Paper Mario. Just like the original Piranha Plant, the Paper Mario variety is red with white spots. They are located on Lavalava Island and in the depths of Mt. Lavalava. However, the Putrid Piranhas found in Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door and Super Paper Mario are yellow with red spots. These can be found in either Keelhaul Key or The Land of the Cragnons. The Putrid Pirahna is a little bigger than the average Piranha Plant and are best known for their nasty poison breath. Their first appearance was in Jade Jungle, in Paper Mario, when they attacked baby orange Yoshi.

History

Paper Mario

Template:Pmenemybox The Putrid Piranhas of Paper Mario are found on Lavalava Island. Those Putrid Pirahnas are red with white spots and have yellow-stained teeth. Putrid Piranhas are close relatives of the Piranha Plants. Unlike most other Piranha Plants, this Putrid Pirahna can survive in the hot temperatures and conditions of Mt. Lavalava. Some of them can also live in the Jade Jungle located on Lavalava Island. During battle Putrid Piranhas can use a horrible poison breath attack. This attack will poison Mario while doing two points of damage.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Template:Ttydenemy Putrid Piranhas reappear in the sequel of Paper Mario as well and can be found on Keelhaul Key. Instead of being red with white spots, they are yellow with red spots. In addition, their teeth are purple. Like their Lavalava relatives, the Putrid Piranha has glands that turn their breath into a lethal poison. Unlike their Lavalava relatives, they do not droop and are not able to live in burning temperatures.

Super Paper Mario

These are the Putrid Piranhas that live in the Land of the Cragnons in Super Paper Mario. They look the same as the Putrid Piranhas from the previous game. This Putrid Piranha emerges from pipes and will only use its poisonous breath instead of the chomp. These Putrid Pirahnas have a high chance of dropping items due to the poison status being very deadly if the player has no items. It is possible to stomp it when it is exhaling the poisonous gas by jumping on it's exposed head.

Trivia
