Petey Piranha (Boss Pakkun in the Japanese games) is a recurring villain in the Mario series.

Character Description

Petey Piranha has many features that are similar to a typical Piranha Plant. However, Petey is much larger in size than other Piranha Plants, and has definitive arms and legs. He 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.

Petey Piranha in the Super Smash Bros. series

Petey Piranha appears as a boss in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Subspace Emissary mode, holding the cages of both Princess Peach and 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 the Mario games, where Petey has a cartoonish voice, SSBB has him using fearsome roars.
