Long-Stem Strike (ロングレンジパックン, Long Range Pakkun) is Piranha Plant's down special move.
Overview
When used, Piranha Plant hides back into its pot/pipe. When the button is released, Piranha Plant shoots out and bites viciously - the longer the charge, the farther Piranha Plant reaches. The pot has super armor during this attack, and a direction can be inputted to turn Piranha Plant left or right. However, one must be careful when turning, as the pot/pipe cannot change directions after an initial input, and if it lies on its side the attack is stuck at a specific angle, making it easier to dodge. There is also six frames of invincibility on Piranha Plant's mouth during its bite phase. [1]
