Hurt Plant

A Hurt Plant is a species of carnivorous plant found on Lavalava Island in Paper Mario. These plants look exactly like Heart Plants, but when touched, they do not drop hearts, and instead attack Mario.

In battle, they attack by diving into the dirt and popping out near Mario to bite him, much like a Piranha Plant but possibly poisoning him. However, Mario can prevent himself from being poisoned by blocking the Hurt Plant's attacks. The poison bite has around an 85% chance so Mario is more likely to get poisoned.
