Mario & Luigi
Not to be confused with Piranha Plant.

Piranha Planets are a robotic alien-like species of Piranha Plant encountered on Star Shrine in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. Their name is a pun on "Piranha Plant" and "planet".

Profile[]

Physical description[]

Piranha Planets are small planet-like orbs covered with pipes. Small Piranha Plants with space helmets live in them.

Behavior[]

A Piranha Planet's attacks consist of firing lasers at the bro pairs from their Ray Blasters, and they will also stick eight Piranha Plant heads out and then spin around flicking them at the respective plumbers. The green-headed Piranha Plants target Luigi while the red-headed Piranha Plant target Mario. Obviously Piranha Planets can fly, which enables them to dodge hammers. Any air-based attacks are effective in taking out a Piranha Planet.

In Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time[]

Piranha Planets appear in Star Shrine as enemies.
