Fire Stalking Piranha Plants (sometimes abbreviated as Fire Stalking Piranha Pl. and Fire Stalking P. Plant) are fire-breathing variants of Stalking Piranha Plants that first appear in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga Bowser's Minions.

History[edit]

Mario & Luigi series[edit]

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga Bowser's Minions[edit]

Sprite of a Fire Stalking Piranha Plant

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga Bowser's Minions, they appear as enemies and allies in the Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser mode, and are first encountered in the level Hunger Pains. They are Ranged troopers, and attack by spitting fireballs at enemies. Their Special Skill is Spitfire Fury, which allows them to spit multiple fireballs at a targeted enemy. They are strong against flammable enemies such as Pokeys and Fuzzbushes.

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story Bowser Jr.'s Journey[edit]

Fire Stalking Piranha Plants reappear as allies and enemies in the Bowser Jr.'s Journey mode in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story Bowser Jr.'s Journey, where their Special Skill is Spitball Fury. They are effective against Treevils, Beehosses, Pokeys, and other Fire Stalking Piranha Plants.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Fire Stalking Piranha Plants (just called Fire Stalking Piranhas) do not appear, though they are mentioned briefly by Viridi during Palutena's Guidance dialogue for Piranha Plant. Unlike most other variations generally mentioned in order of appearance, they are listed between Super Mario Galaxy and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story debuts. Big Piranhas, Nipper Spores, Big Fire Piranhas, and Small Piranhas are similarly listed out of order.

Profiles[edit]

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga Bowser's Minions[edit]

  • Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser profile: They walk about while spitting out powerful flames. Hey, aren't Fuzzbushes and Pokeys flammable?

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story Bowser Jr.'s Journey[edit]

  • Bowser Jr.'s Journey profile: The fire it spits works well against plant-like enemies. It just has to remember not to burn itself.
