'''Munchers''' are a near-invincible [[List of species|species]] of [[Piranha Plant]]. They resemble [[Nipper Plant]]s in appearance, but are usually colored black and are immobile. They often appear in groups covering part of the ground, acting like [[Spike (obstacle)|spikes]]. Occasionally, they spring from thin pipes. Touching a Muncher damages the player, but [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]] (except in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games) and the [[Goomba's Shoe]] can walk on them without harm. [[Invincible Mario]] can also walk on Munchers unharmed, but unlike with most other enemies, this does not harm the Munchers. There are few ways to defeat Munchers: only a [[P Switch|Switch Block]] (in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''), a [[POW Block]], a [[Spiny Shell (red)|Spiny Shell]], or a big [[Goomba's Shoe|Goomba's Stiletto]] (all in the ''Super Mario Maker'' games) can defeat a Muncher.

Munchers first appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and are first encountered in [[World 5-3 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 5-3]] where they appear in large numbers. [[World 6-10]] features frozen Munchers, which can be identified by the outline and reflection of the [[Ice Block]] in which they are encased. As [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] warns to Mario in her letter leading into the world, they are harmless when frozen and act like platforms, but if the player uses a [[fireball]], the Muncher will become active again. If [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] hits a [[P Switch|Switch Block]], all regular Munchers will briefly turn into [[coin]]s; if Mario or Luigi tail whips one, the Muncher will become an [[Empty Block]] (except in the GBA version, where they are unaffected). If the player has [[Goomba's Shoe]], they can walk along them without taking damage.
Munchers appear in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. They are rendered as damage-causing foreground tiles, since the [[Family Computer]] and [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] hardware allows for up to only eight sprites per scanline. Munchers remain animated while the game is paused, comparably to [[Jelectro]]s. 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, sometimes having blue leaves, due to the inconsistencies between the limited four palettes available for foreground tiles on the system hardware. In the [[Super Mario All-Stars|first]] and [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|second remakes]], Munchers have green leaves with heads that are either dull orange or indigo depending on the location. They are first encountered in [[World 5-3 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 5-3]]. 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 even alluded to by [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]].<ref>{{cite|quote=Greetings, be careful in the Ice World.

In this game, Munchers are damage-causing foreground tiles rather than sprites, due to a limit of eight sprites per scanline on the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]]. In their official art, they are black with orange leaves, but in the game itself, they can come in other colors depending on the level, sometimes having blue leaves, due to the inconsistencies between the limited four palettes available for foreground tiles on the NES in different levels. In ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', they have green leaves with heads that are either dull orange or indigo depending on the location.
 
Munchers that pop out of [[small pipe]]s also appear in the [[World 7-Piranha Plant 1|first]] and [[World 7-Piranha Plant 2|second]] {{world|7|piranhaplant}} stages of [[Pipe Land]]. Additionally, in any version of the game, Munchers remain animated even when the game is paused, as they are tiles on the foreground layer comparable to [[Jelectro]]s.
 
====''Super Mario World''====
====''Super Mario World''====
Munchers appear again in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', where they behave just like they did previously, including acting like objects. However, [[Cape Mario|Caped Mario]] cannot turn them into blocks as Raccoon and Tanooki Mario could. As before, being [[Invincible Mario]] can allow the player to walk on the Munchers without being harmed; also, [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] can walk on them safely. Touching a Muncher from the side or bottom while riding on Yoshi, however, damages Mario directly without causing Yoshi to run away, removing Mario's power-up if he has one or causing him to lose a life if he does not. This unique behavior is only seen in [[Vanilla Dome 3]], as there are a few Munchers that can be touched from the sides.
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 are largely the same as before, but Munchers cannot be turned into Empty Blocks through any means. It is possible for [[Gray P Switch]]es to turn Munchers into coins, something never seen because they do not appear together in any of the game's levels. Besides [[Invincible Mario]], Munchers can also be walked on harmlessly by [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]], but even then, Munchers still damage Mario on contact, shown in [[Vanilla Dome 3]] particularly.
 
In this game, they have a slightly different appearance: their eyes are absent, their stem is yellow instead of orange, and their head is oval-shaped instead of round.
 
[[Gray P Switch]]es can turn Munchers into coins; however, this behavior goes unused since no levels in the game have both.

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', Munchers only appear in [[World 9-7 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 9-7]], and even then, they only appear in ice blocks. However, they cover most of the floor, and the level is filled with [[Fire Piranha Plant|Venus Fire Trap]]s, whose fireballs can burn the ice the Munchers are in, exposing them to the players. The players can also melt them if they have a [[Fire Flower]]. Once they are thawed out, they cannot be frozen again, even if they are hit with an iceball from an [[Ice Flower]].

Munchers, no longer in ice blocks, appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and their [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|Nintendo Switch port]]. Munchers retain their appearance from ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' and behave the same way as they do in other games. 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]].

Munchers reappear in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|its Nintendo 3DS version]], and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They can be placed in courses normally, but they can also be made huge by dragging a Super Mushroom onto them, or be made to spawn from [[Lakitu]]s, [[Warp Pipe]]s, [[? Block]]s, [[Brick Block]]s, or [[Bill Blaster]]s.
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]]. Dragging a Super Mushroom onto a Muncher increases its size. 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 with a giant Goomba's Shoe, 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.
 
Munchers in these games are treated as sprites instead of objects, acting the same as Piranha Plants but smaller and harder to defeat. Shaking them has no apparent effect other than producing a purple-black cloud of smoke, but shaking them repeatedly will produce [[fly (Mario Paint)|flies]], which the player can swat to initiate the [[Gnat Attack]] minigame. In 1.20 onwards, shaking it after the flies have emerged will cause [[King Watinga]] to pop out, and swatting him will trigger a harder version of Gnat Attack.
 
In this game, Munchers are damaging to the touch on every side, unless Mario is wearing a Goomba's Shoe, during which only hitting a Muncher with Mario's head will damage him.

Yoshi can once again walk safely across Munchers, even in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' 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.
 
Also, as Munchers are absent from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', new sprites are made for this style. In the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' style, an altered version of the original sprite was used: they have yellow lips or teeth, and have a blue shading.
 
The Munchers in this game are affected by gravity, and fall down if they are not on top of any ground. They can also operate like solid blocks in that they take out most enemies just by falling onto them.

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

History

Super Mario series

Super Mario Bros. 3

Munchers appear in Super Mario Bros. 3. They are rendered as damage-causing foreground tiles, since the Family Computer and Nintendo Entertainment System hardware allows for up to only eight sprites per scanline. Munchers remain animated while the game is paused, comparably to Jelectros. 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, sometimes having blue leaves, due to the inconsistencies between the limited four palettes available for foreground tiles on the system hardware. In the first and second remakes, Munchers have green leaves with heads that are either dull orange or indigo depending on the location. They are first encountered in World 5-3. 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 even alluded to by Princess Toadstool.[1] Hitting a Switch Block turns all Munchers into coins while the effects are actively. Using a Goomba's Shoe allows the player to walk along the Munchers without taking damage. Munchers that pop out of small pipes appear in the first and second World 7-Piranha Plant stages of Pipe Land. Munchers transform into Empty Blocks when tail-whipped, though not in the second remake.

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 are largely the same as before, but Munchers cannot be turned into Empty Blocks through any means. It is possible for Gray P Switches to turn Munchers into coins, something never seen because they do not appear together in any of the game's levels. Besides Invincible Mario, Munchers can also be walked on harmlessly by Yoshi, but even then, Munchers still damage Mario on contact, shown in Vanilla Dome 3 particularly.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii

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, with all of them appearing inside of ice blocks that cover most of the floor. Munchers can be thawed from the ice if hit by a fireball. Munchers cannot be frozen again, including if they get hit by an ice ball from an Ice Flower.

Hacking the game reveals that unlike in Super Mario World, Yoshi cannot safely walk on Munchers or Spike Traps.[2] 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

Munchers appear in New Super Mario Bros. U, New Super Luigi U, and their port. Munchers retain their appearance from New Super Mario Bros. Wii and behave the same way as they do in other games, aside from no longer being encased in ice blocks. 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, 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. Dragging a Super Mushroom onto a Muncher increases its size. 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 with a giant Goomba's Shoe, 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

Munchers appear in Super Mario Run. They act the same as before. 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, primarily in the stage Muncher Fields, lining most of the floor, walls, and ceilings while functioning the same as in other games. Yoshi can once again walk safely across Munchers. They can be defeated by throwing a Red POW Block at them.

Nintendo Adventures Books

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. In Leaping Lizards, some Munchers are a part of the first International Mushroom Games event, the obstacle course. If Roy's flying carpet is sabotaged by a Rocky Wrench, he will fall into a patch of the plants, though the Munchers leave him alone due to deeming his tough hide unappetizing.

In Pipe Down!, if Mario and Luigi follow Princess Toadstool out of her castle and to the Koopahari Desert, they have to zig-zag through patches of Munchers. The plants make a similar cameo in Dinosaur Dilemma, where they can be spotted prowling the Valley of the Koopas by Mario and Yoshi.

In Flown the Koopa, a patch of Munchers can be found in the desert surrounding a tree inhabited by Cheep Cheeps, and will swarm Luigi if he tries to get his and his friends lost International Dino-Flying Derby tickets out of the tree; more of the plants can be found by the Mario Bros. in the swamp containing Magikoopa's Fortress.

Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3

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

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

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

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