This is a Piranha Plant. Piranha Plants pop out of the ground at unexpected moments, so be on your guard. Max HP: 5, Attack Power: 3, Defense Power: 0 You've seen 'em in every one of your adventures, so I imagine you know 'em pretty well. Their sharp jaws point upward, so you'll get bitten if you try to jump on 'em. They smile after biting people. That smug smile...it makes me hopping mad!

- Player's Guide: The familiar Piranha Plant has found a way to detach itself from the green pipes it usually calls home. It will pop out of the ground and attack with little notice, so take care not to leap into the sharp teeth.[26]
