Piranhacopter (リーフローター, Leaf Rotor) is Piranha Plant's up special move.
Overview
When used, Piranha Plant spins its leaves and travels upward for a great amount of distance. A direction can be inputted to move Piranha Plant left or right during the ascent. The leaves themselves deal minor damage and are capable of dragging opponents along with Piranha Plant.
Origin
This move is a reference to the Jumping Piranha Plant from Super Mario World. In that game, Jumping Piranha Plants jump out of pipes in an attempt to attack Mario, with their leaves fluttering in the air in a similar fashion to its iteration in Smash.
