The Prickly Piranha Plant,[1] also known as the Spiky Piranha Plant,[2] is a black variant of Spiny Piranha Plant that appears in Super Mario Galaxy 2.

History

Super Mario Galaxy 2

The Prickly Piranha Plant is an enemy in Super Mario Galaxy 2. It attacks in the same way as its purple counterpart, which is by slamming its head onto the ground. However, unlike with the purple counterpart, the player cannot jump on it due to its spikes and must use the nearby rubbery bulb to defeat it by hitting its head when it is down on the ground. This enemy appears only in Sky Station Galaxy during the mission Storming the Sky Fleet, where it holds a key to the locked-up Power Star nearby and must be defeated.

Appearances
