Frost Piranha
HP: 10, Attack: 4, Defense: 0

This is a Frost Piranha. Frost Piranhas are frozen Piranha Plants. They'll try to freeze you with their icy breath. You'll be at their mercy if they freeze you, so you'd better try to immobilize them right away. Ice attacks won't work--they love ice! Fire attacks, though...

Lava Piranha
Max HP: 80 (has 40 HP per round), Attack Power: 5 (Round 1: normal), 7 (Round 2: on fire), Defense: 0

Tattle: Lava Piranhas are plants that can somehow survive in lava. Regular: They blow out huge balls of fire to attack. That is one big flower! Wow! On Fire: Since their bodies are on fire, you'll take damage if you stomp on 'em. Don't worry of you're fire proof. They'll try to burn you with their fire breath. They're creatures born of fire, so water attacks will work extremely well against them.

Lava Buds
Max HP: 16 (have 8 HP per round), Attack Power: 4 (regular only), Defense: 0

Tattle: Lava Buds are little flower branching out from the main stem of the Lava Piranha. They love it in the lava. Hey, if you were a fiery plant you'd love it in there, too. Regular: They blow small seeds or other projectiles to attack, the small Lava Buds attack power is 4. On Fire: They blow put Petit Piranhas. The Lava Bud's stems themselves won't attack you.

Petit Piranhas
Max HP: 1, Attack: 6, Defense: 0

Tattle: Petit Piranhas spew from Lava Buds. These things can do some serious damage, so watch it!

Regular Piranha Plant
HP: 5, Attack: 3, Defense: 0

This is a Piranha Plant. Piranha Plants pop out of the ground at unexpected moments, so be on your guard. 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!

Putrid Piranha
HP: 12, Attack: 3, Defense: 0

This is a Putrid Piranha. Putrid Piranhas sometimes bite, but the truly scary thing is their nasty, poisonous breath. The power of their bad breath is 2, but your HP will begin to fall if you get poisoned. You should try to recover as quickly as possible if you get poisoned.

It may look like a normal Piranha Plant, but don't be fooled! It's super-tough! If we get beaten by a flower, we'll never hear the end of it, know what I mean?

 * Tattle:That's a Putrid Piranha. It's a poisonous Piranha Plant.  That color is totally sickly... Max HP is 8, Attack is 3, and Defense is 0. It bites, AND it attacks with super-rank poison breath. Breath mint, table four! If you get poisoned, your HP will slowly go down, so, y'know, try not to.
