Petea Piranha, Paper Mario: Color Splash

Petea Piranha is a minor boss fought in Plum Park of Paper Mario: Color Splash. He first emerges folded up like a teabag when Mario and Huey attempt to squeeze the Teapot, engaging the two in a boss battle. According to the game's digital instruction manual, the two Snifits who were having tea in Plum Park originally stuffed Petea Piranha, in place of a teabag, into the teapot, which they stole from Dark Bloo Inn. He is also the one responsible for poisoning the water in Plum Park.

He greatly resembles Petey Piranha, and indeed the internal filenames confirm that Petea is based on Petey, since he is referred to with the BPK and B_PKF abbreviations in the game code,[1] with the script controlling his behavior in battle also having the BossPakkun string, all of which reference Petey Piranha's Japanese name, Boss Pakkun (「ボスパックン」). Despite this, his complete internal name is instead Tea Pakkun (「ティーパックン」),[1] which is also his actual name in the Japanese version.[2] The French and Italian localizations maintain this distinction, with the latter using a direct translation of the Japanese name and even using different gibberish language for him mainly based on various spellings of tea in Italy.[3]. In terms of appearance, the sprite used for Petea is basically identical to Petey Piranha, but the 3D model features a small paper teabag label attached to the head, conferring a peculiar appearance to Petea.

During the fight, Petea is able to use several moves against Mario, including flying above him and then falling on him. He also has the noticeable ability to eat enemies summoned by Mario through Enemy Cards and spit them at Mario, with them then fighting for Petea. If Mario attempts to jump on Petea Piranha, the latter will counter the attack by swallowing Mario, damaging him in the process. However, when he's stunned, he can be hit with hammer attacks to make him fall down, leaving him vulnerable to jump attacks. He also falls down when using the Lemon Thing Card or the Lemon Replica cards.
