==Character Description==
==Role in Super Smash Bros. Brawl==
Petey Piranha has many features that are similar to a typical [[Piranha Plant]]. However, Petey is much larger than other Piranha Plants, and has definitive arms and legs, and also wears white polka-dotted underpants. Petey made his first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. He appeared as a boss in the first course. He would attack Mario by spitting goop at him. Mario had to spray water in Petey's mouth in order to knock him over and ground pound his large belly button. Petey has also appeared in many of the Mario sports games and the ''Mario Kart'' series. He appeared as a heavy racer in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''. Petey also appeared as an unlockable character in ''Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour''. In this game, Petey was the most powerful character. He has also appeared in numerous other Mario Sports titles like ''Mario Superstar Baseball'' and ''Super Mario Power Tennis''.
Petey Piranha is the first boss in Brawl's adventure game: [[The Subspace Emissary]]. You fight him as Kirby. He attacks with Iron cages and you can save one of the princesses depending on which cage you damage more and subsequently break.
===Backstory===
After winning the match at the stadium, the Halberd appears and primids appear everywhere. R.O.B.s appear and activate a subspace bomb. The character you played as will dash toward the bomb, but will get blown away by a cannonball. Then, Petey Piranha appears and locks [[Peach]] and [[Zelda]] in cages and the character you didn't play as will fight him. After the battle,you and the princess will jump away from the explosion. However, [[Wario]] appears holding some sort of weapon. He shoots the princess you didn't save and turns her into a trophy. Then Wario grabs the trophy, laughs, and jumps away. Finally, your character and the princess will escape.

Brawl]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Subspace Emissary]] mode, holding the cages of both [[Princess Peach (SSBB)|Princess Peach]] and [[Princess Zelda (SSBB)|Princess Zelda]]. The player must damage the cages to break them open. When Petey is defeated, whichever cage is more damaged will break, freeing the princess inside. The princess who was not saved will be turned into a trophy by Wario. At the last level, Tabuu resurrects Petey (along with the other bosses) and sends him after the heroes in "The Great Maze."


Unlike in most Mario games, where Petey has a cartoonish voice, ''SSBB'' has him using fearsome roars. This could be the result of Tabuu's power.

== Stategies ==
Petey is by far the easiest boss of the Subspace Emissary. When attacking him, simply jump over his cage swings or use projectiles. When he uses his jump attack, simply dodge under him or stay off the side of the stage. If trying to capture, just attack him to low health and dodge under his jumps until a trophy base appears.
 
==Trophy Info==
''A gigantic Piranha Plant. Unlike his pipe-inhabiting cousins, he uses his legs to walk around. He can fly, too. As you might expect, he often appears as a boss character in Mario's adventures. This may come as a surprise, but he also displays surprising dexterity in kart races and ball games.''

:New Super Mario Bros. (2006)
 
==Trivia==
*If one breaks both cages simultaneously by only attacking Petey's body, the game will randomly decide which princess is freed.
*In Boss Battles Mode, Petey's cages are empty and the background is changed to daylight.
