Pianta mayor
- “He's always had a strong sense of duty and leadership. Yep...”
- —Pianta, Super Mario Sunshine
The Pianta mayor[1], or simply the mayor, is the mayor of Pianta Village in Super Mario Sunshine. He mostly hangs around a gold Mushroom in the middle of the city with his mother who is an orange female Pianta wearing glasses. He is also known to go down to the entrance when a catastrophe is happening (such as when one particular Pianta accidentally lets her pets loose). He can be a little childish at times, often wanting to indulge in very dangerous activities that may harm him, such as holding onto Fluff in the Fluff Festival, but he is also known to be very brave, as shown when he chooses to stay behind to evacuate all the villagers during a Coo Coo attack on the village. He seems to have a wife, but she is never seen. The mayor also has a secret cash stash, located in the sun. If Mario sprays the cash stash with F.L.U.D.D. in the 8th episode of Pianta Village, he will earn a Shine Sprite. The wife is also said to have a cash stash, as a female pianta will mention in episode 4 next to a tree with fruit. Hers is located in the moon, which contains a blue coin.
He also appears as a Villager type in the Super Mario Mash-Up Pack of Minecraft alongside the Isle Delfino Police, hotel manager, and some other standard Piantas.
