As a ledgetrapping tool, it does exceptionally well. Due to the hitbox of a fully charged Poison Breath, it can not only hit every ledgehang animation in the game, but also hit during two-frame animations and get guaranteed chip damage. It also forces the opponent to escape the poison from ledge, otherwise they take a large amount of damage. This, combined with usage of Ptooie rolls on the ledge, makes Piranha Plant's ledgetrapping incredibly strong with the proper reads on an opponent's ledge options. Important to note, is that an uncharged Poison Breath cannot hit every ledgehang in the game, so it is always best to charge the breath at least close to max, so it can hit ledgehanging opponents. It is also best to time a Poison Breath a bit before they grab ledge, in order to not get punished for doing it too late or have it not do much damage if any at all if done too early. | As a ledgetrapping tool, it does exceptionally well.

Against reflectors, Poison Breath can play a role against them. While Piranha Plant can end up taking massive amounts of damage from a reflected poison, it can be possible to exploit the lack of knockback in order to get a punish on the opponent reflecting. Grabs work best as the punish, due to being able to abuse throw invincibility to take less damage from the poison. However, getting caught by a reflected poison whilst performing a lengthy move can cause serious damage, so it is important to know when the opponent will commit to a reflector in order to punish them without taking extreme damage | Against reflectors, Poison Breath can play a role against them.

The charge of Poison Breath also has uses in being able to be [[B-reverse]]d and [[wavebounce]]d, adding complexity to Piranha Plant's aerial movements and allowing for ways to fake out approaches against the opponent. The charge can also be shield or jump cancelled, with a light tap on the shield whilst on the ground causing a lagless cancel animation instead of going into shield. It is also possible to B-reverse the shooting of a fully charged Poison Breath, however it provides little to no benefit. | The charge of Poison Breath also has uses in being able to be [[B-reverse]]d and [[wavebounce]]d, adding complexity to Piranha Plant's aerial movements and allowing for ways to fake out approaches against the opponent.
