Piranha Bean

The Piranha Bean is an enemy that appears in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. It is only faught as Luigi at the far east side of the Beanbean Kingdom. Luigi must fight this being alone to get the Bean Fruit that it has swallowed up. After it has been defeated, the Piranha Plant not only coughs up the Bean Fruit, but Prince Peasley as well.

Appearance
The Piranha Bean actually looks similar to Petey Piranha except for being smaller.

Battle
In battle, the Piranha Bean mainly attacks by spitting a small bean-like object at Luigi. The bean object turns out to be none other than Prince Peasley who somehow turned small. Like most Piranha Plants in this game, the Piranha Bean can also spit fireballs at Luigi which, sometimes, can be tough to avoid.

Tips
Beaning a red Piranha Plant, the Piranha Bean is very weak to the Thunderhand techique so Luigi needs to stick with that for the entire battle (Mario isn't around so Luigi cannot use any Bros. Moves).
