A '''Naval Piranha''' is an artificially enlarged [[Piranha Plant]] boss with thorned stalks and two or more [[Naval Bud]]s growing from it. The original Naval Piranha debuts in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', where it starts out as a normal Piranha Plant, but is altered by [[Kamek]]'s magic. Its localized name refers to both the aquatic area it is found in its original appearance as well as its large bellybutton (i.e. its navel). Later depictions of Naval Piranhas are found in other habitats and sometimes lack the bellybutton, causing the name's meaning to be lost. However, the name in the original Japanese referred instead to its enlarged size, as is the case with most of the game's bosses. | A '''Naval Piranha''' is an artificially enlarged [[Piranha Plant]] boss with thorned stalks and two or more [[Naval Bud]]s growing from it.
