{{Term/Store|Piranha Plant|Piranha Plants|Series, LA, LADX, LANS|plural}} are enemies in {{LA}}.<ref>{{Cite|Is this a stand for something? It says, "{{Color|LANS Pink|Piranha Plant}}"...|N/A|LANS}}</ref> They are directly based on the {{Smw|Piranha Plant}} enemies of the ''{{Smw|Mario (series)|Mario}}'' series.


==Characteristics and Weaknesses==
==Characteristics==
[[smw:Piranha Plant|Piranha Plants]] are immobile man-eating flowers that originated in [[smw:Super Mario Bros.|''Super Mario Bros.'']] and are common enemies throughout the [[smw:Mario Series|''Mario'' series]]. Like their Mario counterparts, they appear out of pipes at regular intervals and try to eat Link as he passes by. Link can use his [[Sword]] to destroy them, or simply use the [[Roc's Feather]] to jump over them. Their appearance alongside Goombas in an underground area is a direct reference to World 1-2 in ''Super Mario Bros.'' and locations in many other Mario games.
Piranha Plants appear in side-scrolling areas of dungeons, particularly in the [[Bottle Grotto]] and [[Key Cavern]]. They are immobile {{Wp|Venus Flytrap}}-like flowers that emerge from pipes at regular intervals and try to bite [[Link]] as he passes by. Link can simply wait for these plants to return to their pipes to safely pass or jump over them with the [[Roc's Feather]], or he can use his [[Sword]] to defeat them.


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The appearance of Piranha Plants here in ''Link's Awakening'' is based on the appearance of Pirahna Plants in [[smw:Super Mario Bros. 3|''Super Mario Bros. 3'']].
*[[Manhandla]] in {{OoS}} is depicted as a [[Buzz Blob]]-like creature with four Piranha Plant heads on its sides. These plants spit fireballs at Link, similarly to how some Piranha Plants in the ''Mario'' series breathe fire.
