The Delfino Plaza Court is a default court in Mario Power Tennis. It is located in Delfino Plaza's Bianco Square, with the Grand Pianta Statue moved back slightly to make room for it. Only the part of Delfino Plaza is actually modeled, and all buildings behind the building with the Warp Pipe leading to Sirena Beach are not present, including the Shine Gate. Piantas act as the court's line judges, while others spectate from the sides. This court's theme is an arrangement of "Isle Delfino".
When the court is played with its gimmick, various Piranha Plants hidden inside puddles of brown Goop, alongside F.L.U.D.D.-like water nozzles appear around the court. On the court itself, three large Petey Piranha symbols appear on each side, alongside with three smaller water nozzle symbols. If a symbol is hit, a Piranha Plant will jump out of the puddle and throw a ball of Goop, covering that area of the court. The Goop slows down players walking over it. If a player walks over the water nozzle symbol, one of them will clear part of the Goop of its respective Petey Piranha symbol. It takes four spurts from a water nozzle to completely clean one area covered in Goop. The Goop stay on the court between points, but disappear whenever players switch sides.
During Item Battles, Mushrooms have a 10% higher chance to appear from Item Boxes. This court is where the Special Game Tic-Tac-Glow takes place.
