Piranha Pod

Piranha Pods are an alternate version of Spiny Eggs. Like Spiny Eggs, they are thrown by Lakitus, but turn into a Piranha Plant upon landing rather than a Spiny. They only appear in New Super Mario Bros. U in the level Blooming Lakitus, and in New Super Luigi U in the levels Spinning Sandstones and Beanstalk Jungle. They are briefly mentioned in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate by Viridi during Palutena's Guidance dialogue for Piranha Plant. Prior to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia, their English name was unknown.
