A '''Lava Bud''' is the smaller stem of a [[Lava Piranha]]. Two of them, along with the Lava Piranha they attach to, are the bosses of Chapter 5 in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. Both of them branch out of the Lava Piranha while fighting [[Mario]] and his group. During the fight, Lava Buds fire [[Petit Piranha]]s, and the spores then immediately attack. When their health runs out, the Lava Buds crumple up. As long as the Lava Piranha itself remains undefeated, the Lava Buds do not completely wither, and they eventually regenerate. A [[Water Block]] renders Mario near-immune to their attacks. Along with the Petit Piranhas, they will be automatically defeated after the Lava Piranha itself has been defeated.

In a Lava Piranha patch, there is usually one mature stalk for every two juveniles. Lava Buds reproduce via spores; if confronted with danger, they will fire these spores-[[Petit Piranha|Petit Piranhas]]-at enemies, but otherwise will just randomly spit spores. Lava Buds will not die as long as the oldest Lava Piranha in the patch is alive. Once the mature one dies, the buds lose the nutrients they were retrieving from the adult and wither.

Lava Buds bear high resemblence to [[Naval Bud|Naval Buds]].
