This level has a unique puzzle in it. Peach will find a room with different coloured floating mushrooms. The next room will have different coloured flowers. Peach must hit the flowers in the order of the colours of the mushrooms to raise a pipe to the next area. This happens 3 times.

Boss Battle
Like all other areas of the game, Ladida Plains is made of five levels followed by a boss challenge. To reach the boss for the first time, Peach must complete a stylus challenge. The Player must stretch the platforms to make Peach jump without falling or getting hit by Sad Paragoombas. After she has completed the mission, she will see a lone Toad encased in a bubble. With relief, the princess runs over only to be stopped in here tracks as Petey Piranha (called Boss Piranha Plant in the glossary) appears and swallows the toad whole. He then roars at her and the battle begins.

Petey Piranha
To defeat Petey Piranha, Peach must use the Gloom vibe to fill his mouth with water. This will only work once he opens up his mouth to spit out Nipper Plants. Once he has been filled with water, he will fall down, exposing his weak spot - his belly button. Peach must jump on his belly button to take off one hit point. This method is similar to the way he was defeated in Super Mario Sunshine.

Attacks
Petey Piranha's attacks include:


 * An ear-splitting roar that will damage Peach if she is close. It also pushes her to the sides of the stage.


 * Shock waves that will speed across the ground at a high pace.


 * If Peach takes too long to spray water into Petey's mouth, he will spit out a few Nipper Plants and a Vibe Crystal.


 * Once her foe is down to 2 hit points (represented by skulls), he will fly up into the air and turn red. He will be quicker and hop around between attacks. His attacks will also be faster and stronger.

Trivia

 * The boss of Ladida Plains was originally going to be Iggy Koopa. However he had been replaced before the game was released.
