Peewee Piranha

Template:GBoss-infobox Peewee Piranha is a boss who appears in the game Super Mario Galaxy 2. It appears in the Sky Station Galaxy.

Mario first encounters the creature enclosed in an egg, much like the Dino Piranha in the first game. The boss looks very similar to the Dino Piranha, except for that it has green petals, and its entire backside is protected by the eggshell. The Peewee Piranha attacks mainly by charging at Mario, much like its predecessor. Mario will need to hit the shell to expose its bulbous and throbbing rear end. After Mario hits the Peewee Piranha from behind once, it will reform its shell for protection and begin to charge at Mario again. Its attacks are now much faster and it can also lunge at the plumber. Mario will need to hit the eggshell three more times to let its throbbing rear to be hit again, and be defeated, granting Mario the Power Star. This boss appears in the mission, "Peewee Piranha's Temper Tantrum".

The player does face Peewee Piranha twice, with the second fight being under the Speedy Comet conditions.

Trivia

• Like Dino Piranha from the first Super Mario Galaxy, Peewee Piranha resembles Petey Piranha, with one particular feature that he doesn't (in his case, the eggshell) that must be attacked. Also, both are the first boss of their respective games and are first encountered enclosed in an egg.
