| '''Inky Piranha Plants''' are ink-spitting variants of [[Piranha Plant]]s that first appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They resemble normal [[Piranha Plant]]s, but they are black instead of red and can spit ink to cover the player's screen, similar to a [[Blooper]] in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]].

| ==History==
| | '''Inky Piranha Plants''' are enemies appearing in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They resemble normal [[Piranha Plant]]s, but they are black and spit ink. |
| ===''Super Mario 3D Land''===
| |
| [[File:3DS_SuperMario_8_scrn08_E3.png|170px|thumb|left|An Inky Piranha Plant spits ink onto the screen]] | |
| Inky Piranha Plants appear mainly in the underground levels. They spit ink out of their mouths to cover the screen. If the player blows into the microphone, though, the ink will be blown off, removing it from the screen. They can be defeated by any attack method, just like a normal Piranha Plant.

| [[File:Inkshowdown.png|thumb|190px|Inky Piranha Plants in the ''Mario Tennis Open'' minigame Ink Showdown]] | | Inky Piranha Plants appear mainly in the underground levels. They attack like a normal Piranha Plant, but they also have a special trick up their sleeve. They can spit ink out of their mouths to cover the screen, like a [[Blooper]] in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart series]]''. When the ink is on the screen, [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] cannot see very well and might run into an [[Enemies|enemy]] or [[abyss|pit]]. If the [[player]] blows into the microphone, though, the ink will be blown off, removing it from the screen. They can be defeated by any attack method, just like a normal Piranha Plant. |
| Inky Piranha Plants appear in ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]''. In [[Ink Showdown]], a revamped version of the Piranha Challenge from ''[[Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|Mario Tennis]]'', they shoot tennis balls to the player, as well as ink blobs that will block their screen making it harder to see. | |

| | |
| Inky Piranha Plants appear as background enemies in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. Inky Piranha Plants do not appear in the field due to their nature of a background enemy, and only randomly appear during battles against [[Fire Bro]]s and/or [[Flaming Antasmaton]]s in the later segments of [[Neo Bowser Castle]]. | |
| | |
| In battle, Inky Piranha Plants will spit ink at the screen, just as in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', making it difficult to see and avoid enemy attacks. Unlike most background enemies, it cannot be brought into the foreground whatsoever, and the use of a single [[Taunt Ball]] will simply knock it unconscious, rendering it unable to shoot ink for several turns. Once again, unlike most other background enemies who are defeated through use of a Taunt Ball, Inky Piranha Plants can be defeated if a total of three Taunt Balls are thrown at one by either Bro. | |
| | |
| After an Inky Piranha Plant spits ink on the screen, it can be cleared off quickly by blowing into the 3DS microphone.
| |
| | |
| ===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
| |
| In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Inky Piranha Plants (just called '''Inky Piranhas''') are mentioned briefly by [[icaruspedia:Viridi|Viridi]] during [[List of Palutena's Guidance conversations|Palutena's Guidance]] dialogue for Piranha Plant.

| ===''Mario Kart Tour''===
| |
| [[File:MKT Inky Piranha Plant.jpg|thumb|left|100px|An Inky Piranha Plant on Bangkok Rush in ''Mario Kart Tour'']]
| |
| Inky Piranha Plants make their [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]] debut in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' as obstacles in [[Tour Bangkok Rush|Bangkok Rush]] and [[Madrid Drive|Madrid Drive 3R/T]]. In the latter course, they also appear on the back of [[truck]]s. In this game, they spit out [[Oil slick|ink pile]]s, which act similarly to oil slicks. If the player is hit by the ink, they will spin out and ink will cover the screen. The player can obtain points by hitting them with [[Bob-omb]]s or a [[Super Horn]]. A large Inky Piranha Plant appears in the R/T variant of [[DS Peach Gardens]], replacing the Big Piranha Plant that is usually located there.
| |
| | |
| In {{classic|Tour|Bangkok Rush}}'s appearance in the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass]]'', Inky Piranha Plants are replaced with small Piranha Plants.
