Talk:Big Fire Piranha
Does anyone else think this page is unnecessary? The details needed are already on Venus Fire Trap, and there's little to no difference between this or its smaller counterpart. I move to delete the page or redirect it to Venus Fire Trap. Bop1996 (Talk)
I agree. There's only two differences between them. ThePremiumYoshi 15:45, 13 January 2012 (EST)

Well you're not very right. By example, between the Piranha Plant and Super Piranha Plant or Piranhacus Gigantici, what differences are? The sigle things that makes them different is that the Super Piranha Plant or Piranhacus Gigantici are bigger than Piranha Plant.So why the articles about Super Piranha Plants or Piranhacus Giganticis shouldn't be deleted?

- The two examples you mentioned above have different behavior than their smaller counterparts, whereas all this has going for it is a larger size and some more health. Bop1996 (Talk)
True, true. But Gargantua Koopa Troopas are just big koopas. Only difference is the size and they are walking on all four legs. SuperPaperFan
- No, there's several differences and their behavior varies between several games (and even several characters, bosses, and forms), so there's not much similarity there either. Bop1996 (Talk)
OK.
Now im starting to question this page. It is just a big pirahna plant after all. I now personally think we should think about merging it SuperPaperFan
About this
Why we can't keep this article anyway? What is it, they're almost like Venus Fire Traps, but are much larger and have big fireballs, is true. But I think we don't destroy this wiki with only one article added. KEEP IT!!

You can keep it. It's just that they look just like Venus Fire Traps we had to question this article. SuperPaperFan

Piranha Flower
Are we sure "Piranha Flower" is a specific term for big Fire Piranha Plants? It's been used enough to refer to other Piranha Plant derivatives that I'm pretty sure it's just an alternate name for Piranha Plants in general... Binarystep (talk) 14:43, 8 May 2015 (EDT)
- Where else has Piranha Flower been used in English materials? Directly judging from the mission title, it's obvious that the name was supposed to be "Giant Piranha Plant(s)", but for some reason the localization reinterpreted it as 'plucking' them (from what I can gather, this is before Fire Piranhas became standard, so Japanese guides refer to the normal sleeping variety as just Piranha Plants, and the Fire Piranha Plants as Huge Piranha Plants and Tiny Piranha Plants). Nintendo Power's Super Mario 64 Player's Guide also suggests that Piranha Flower was intentionally meant to refer to the fire-breathing ones: it refers to the sleeping garden variety ones as "Piranha Plants" (pg. 13 [Enemies], 24, 26 & 28 [Whomp's Fortress]) and the fire-breathing ones separately as "Piranha Flowers" (pg. 108 [Tiny-Huge Island]). Granted, it does refer to the smaller ones as "tiny Piranha Flowers", but per naming, the current name makes sense. LinkTheLefty (talk) 16:16, 8 May 2015 (EDT)
Rename to Big Venus Fire Traps

I suggested to rename this article to Big Venus Fire Traps, because actually I think that this name "Piranha Flower" is a bit confusing with all other species of Piranha Plant. This name really not hint about the fact that this plant spit fire. Big Venus Fire Traps is a better name for this enemy. Also, some language (japanese and french) refer the Piranha Plant as Piranha Flower (Pakkun Flower and Fleur Piranha) What do you think about it?--
