Megasmilax is a boss who appears in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.

Physical description[]

Megasmilax is a giant Piranha Plant who also has smaller heads called Smilaxs. In the game, Megasmilax is shown with two Smilaxes, but is shown with three in its artwork.

In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars[]

Megasmilax is encountered in Bean Valley, where it appears in a pipe leading to Nimbus Land to block access to there. Right as Mario and his team defeat several Piranha Plants, a Shy Away comes to pour recycled water on another Piranha Plant which grows three heads, forming Megasmilax.

After defeating Megasmilax in a boss fight, Mario and his team heads further into the clouds of Bean Valley and into Nimbus Land.

Battle[]

In battle, Megasmilax itself attacks mainly by biting Mario and his team and can also use the troublesome Petal Blast move. The smaller Smilaxs can also attack mainly by biting.

Strategy[]

Megasmilax and the Smilaxs are highly vulnerable to Ice, so it is recommended to have Mallow in his fight and use his Snowy move. Mallow should also be equipped with a Trueform Pin to avoid being turned into a mushroom while Mario attacks normally and Princess Toadstool heals.

Crossover appearances[]

In Minecraft's Super Mario Mash-up pack, the Wither is replaced with Megasmilax with two Smilaxes.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Megasmilax is mentioned by Viridi during the Palutena's Guidance dialogue for Piranha Plant. Megasmilax is mentioned in plural form, suggesting that it is a species rather than an individual.
