Frost Piranhas return in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', where they are found in [[The Underwhere]]. This time their stalk is green like normal Piranha Plants instead of blue, and they are only found popping out of [[Warp Pipe]]s. They can attack by breathing an ice gust. Frost Piranhas sometimes drop an [[Ice Storm]] if defeated.
