Pale Piranha

Pale Piranhas are a pale variant of Piranha Plants found in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. They live in the Boggly Woods and the Great Tree, and, as indicated, are colored in gray with white spots. They are the weakest of the four types of Piranha Plants in the game. In the Glitz Pit, a Pale Piranha appears as one of the members of the Mind-Bogglers. They attack by biting Mario. When Mario comes near a Pale Piranha outside battle, it will try to bite Mario in a rush to make the First Strike, causing him damage. If Mario attempts to jump on one, he will take damage.

In all languages except the English localization, Pale Piranhas are considered the "normal" Piranha Plants, with the color simply being an adaptation to the monochrome environment, similar to the Clefts in the same area; this includes the Spanish localization, despite having a color identifier in the name. In the English version, however, Goombella identifies them as a subspecies.
