The phrase "flaming Pianta" comes up the most in the game's English guides. Should we move it to that? This Pianta (or Pianta''s''?) is always on fire whenever he's first met in the area, so it seems a bit more appropriate than the name that implies you can buy from him.

:: Per [[MarioWiki:Naming#Acceptable sources for naming|polciy]], "flaming Pianta" should objectively be prioritized over "mushroom dealer Pianta" if it comes from a Nintendo-published/affiliated guide book. Any names from the Encyclopedia that are not attested elsewhere are listed at #6. - [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 16:45, November 17, 2023 (EST) | |||
