Poison Breath (ポイズンブレス, Poison Breath) is Piranha Plant's side special.

Overview

When the move is used, Piranha Plant turns in the direction it was used and spits purple poison that deals damage. It's color scheme during this move changes into a yellow color with red polka-dots. Depending on how long the move is charged, the poison will stay around for longer. Interestingly, even though the move is visually a poison-based attack, it does not inflict the poison effect.

Origin

This move is likely inspired from the Putrid Piranha, an enemy in the Paper Mario series. Most notably, the Putrid Piranha's design matches with the color scheme of Piranha Plant when using this move. When encountered, Putrid Piranhas spit poison which deals damage to Mario or his allies and subsequently poisons them.
