Propeller Piranha



Hootie the Blue Fish is not a fish at all! It is actually a fish-like Jumping Piranha Plant loyal to the Naval Piranha found in the game, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. The invincible Hootie is found (usually in sets of three) only in the Naval Piranha's Castle. Throwing an egg will only stun them, so don't even try. They hover just above the ground traveling along walls in small tunnels, much like Sparks. Moving around them is impossible, so wait until they drift around the corner. Wait for them to slowly move out of the way, then make a dash towards the open. They eat Yoshi in the same way as a Piranha Plant in the game, so stay as far away from them as possible and use caution when near them.

Trivia

 * The name bears a striking resemblence to the ban "Hootie and the BlowFish", but this could just be a coincidence...
