Talk:Propeller Piranha

Merge to Jumping Piranha Plant

This talk page proposal has already been settled. Please do not edit this section or its subsections. If you wish to discuss the article, please do so in a new section below the proposal.

don't merge 1-11
Same japanese name and similar characteristics, therefore they should be merged just as was done with previous mergers like Goby and Cheep-Cheep, and Podoboo and Lava Bubble.

Support

1. FourPaperHeroes (talk) Per my proposal.

Oppose

1. Tails777 (talk) They are a sub species so they deserve their own page. They may have the same Japanese name, but their appearance is different.
2. Goomba's Shoe15 (talk) Their are two many differences here different mouth, attack pattern, living area, and color
3. Magikrazy51 (talk) What do you have against Hootie and the Blowfish? Wait, what? I'm what? Oh. Anyway, per the 15th Kuribo Karoobi Goomba's Shoe. It's a sub species like Mr. Kipper.
4. Prince Ludwig (talk) What is wrong with you? I already found out the Hootie the Blue Fish is the only one with his original name; Propeller Pakkun, since the Jumping Piranha Plant is called P-Pakkun. This is dump if an article has to be merged with another article if they share the same japanese name since they are different. So the "issue" is solved. To me, I think this was silly.
5. Toad85 (talk) Different species, different articles. Per all.
6. M&SG (talk) - The two are completely different species; keep them split.
7. yoshiyoshiyoshi (talk) No offense to the proposer,but is this a joke propoal? Lava Bubbles are ghosts and sub-species of ember. Lava Bubbles are living fireballs. Just because the freaking japanese names are the same doesn't mean its the same thing. How can a Fish be a plant? -.-
8. Bowser's luma (talk) Per all.
9. Lakituthequick (talk) Different enemies, per all
10. Mario4Ever (talk) Per all.
11. Jazama (talk) I am always all for combining articles with the same Japanese name, but プパックン P-Pakkun is obviously a different name than プロペラパックン Puropera Pakkun, so merging them does not make sense. Also, Hootie is a plant, yoshiyoshiyoshi.

Move???

The name "propeller pirahna" has been never used in a Mario game, and since smash games aren't quite like Mario games (o get it Mario luigi etc are playable characters doesn't mean it's a Mario game)and the new name is used only because it was mentioned by a character that is NOT from mario, and yes I still get that the new name is the most recent English name, but a line from a character that is not a Mario character doesn't mean it has to change names. 142.162.45.152 17:30, September 21, 2025 (EDT)

Still translated by Nintendo Treehouse, so that's not really relevant. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 17:44, September 21, 2025 (EDT)

Viridi's Smash Ultimate guidance is still the most recent name, and even if it's not a Mario game, it falls in coverage, and did reveal other things we've taken into account (formerly, Petea Piranha was merged to Petey Piranha before the guidance made it clear those were separate entities.) To disregard Viridi's guidance would have a domino effect that would result in changing a lot more pages than just this. ~Camwoodstock ( talk ☯ contribs ) 20:38, September 21, 2025 (EDT)
