Mega Poison Piranha Plants (also referred to as Big Poison Piranha Plants or Super Poison Piranha Plants) are large variants of Poison Piranha Plants which appear in Super Mario Odyssey.
Profile[]
Behavior[]
Mega Poison Piranha Plants retain the same abilities as a regular Poison Piranha Plant, except they spit larger poison blotches and cannot be Captured. They can be found in several kingdoms typically in underground caves.
In Super Mario Odyssey[]
Mega Poison Piranha Plants appear in the Wooded Kingdom, the Metro Kingdom, and the Dark Side. They attack by spitting large splotches of poison at Mario and unlike the smaller Poison Piranha Plants, they cannot be Captured. Instead, tossing Cappy at one will cause it to swallow him thereby stunning the Mega Poison Piranha Plant allowing Mario to stomp it for the finishing blow, if Mario is too slow, the Mega Poison Piranha Plant will spit Cappy back out and return to work. A Mega Poison Piranha Plant can also be beaten by stomping on it from up high with the help of an Uproot. Upon defeat, a Mega Poison Piranha Plant can drop six Coins and sometimes a Power Moon.
Trivia[]
- Before spitting their poisonous blobs, the Mega Poison Piranha Plants are also shown to turn purple.
