Poison Breath (ポイズンブレス, Poison Breath) is Piranha Plant's side special.
Overview
When the move is used, Piranha Plant turns in the direction it was used and spits purple poison that deals damage. It's color scheme during this move changes into a yellow color with red polka-dots. Depending on how long the move is charged, the poison will deal more damage and stay around for longer. Interestingly, even though the move is visually a poison-based attack, it does not inflict the poison effect.
Origin
This move is likely inspired from the Putrid Piranha, an enemy in the Paper Mario series. Most notably, the Putrid Piranha's design matches with the color scheme of Piranha Plant when using this move. When encountered, Putrid Piranhas spit poison which deals damage to Mario or his allies and subsequently poisons them.
Trivia
- Poison Breath is the only side special move that acts as an auto-charge.
