*The appearance of Piranha Plants is based on the appearance in games such as [[smw:Super Mario Bros. 3|''Super Mario Bros. 3'']] and [[smw:Super Mario Land 2|''Super Mario Land 2'']].
*Aside from the below, the [[Manhandla]] from the first ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' was referred to as a very large Piranha Plant in the Japanese manual.

The Manhandla appears in ''[[Oracle of Seasons]]'' as well; it is currently unknown if the reference is retained.
