Petey Piranha appears as the first boss of the [[Midair Stadium]] level in [[The Subspace Emissary]]. Prior to the battle, during the [[Subspace Army]]'s invasion on the stadium, Petey Piranha blasts {{SSBU|Mario}} away with a cannonball and captures both {{SSBB|Peach}} and {{SSBB|Zelda}} in cages, leaving {{SSBU|Kirby}} to battle him. He can be defeated by destroying one of the cages. The player can also attack his head, which splits the damage received to both cages.

Once one of the cages' health is depleted, the cage will break and free one of the princesses inside while Petey Piranha catches on fire, collapses, and explodes. If both cages' health is depleted simultaneously via an attack on his head, the game will randomly decide which princess is freed. The unsaved princess will be turned into a trophy by {{SSBB|Wario}}. At the last level, [[Tabuu]] resurrects Petey, along with the other bosses, and sends him after the heroes in [[The Great Maze]].

Rather than being voiced by Toru Minegishi who voiced the character in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', Petey Piranha has a set of realistic monstrous beast roars, similar to how [[Donkey Kong]], [[Bowser]], and [[Diddy Kong]] were given realistic animal sounds.

====As a playable character====
:Main article: [[Petey Piranha (SSBB)]]
Like all ''Brawl'' bosses, Petey Piranha can be played as in [[Boss Battles]] through [[hacking]], which will assign debug controls to Player 3. Only the Cage attacks are available to deal damage, causing him to be extremely bare-bones and by far the weakest of the game's bosses.

| Roar || Av || Petey Piranha roars, and is surrounded by a red glowing aura for a brief time. This move slightly boosts the following attacks in speed, damage (by about 10%), and knockback (although the change is subtle). When performed by a human, it is currently unknown if it makes his attacks stronger.

| Left Cage Smash || A< || Petey Piranha smashes the cage in his left hand, which is the right cage from the screen's point of view. The attack is highly preventable but relatively swift and long-ranged. Damage varies from 12% (Easy in Boss Battles without boosts) to 40% (Intense in the Subspace Emissary after being boosted by Roar). Additionally, it KOs over 100% on the lower difficulties, but around 60% on Intense.

| Jump || Unusable || Petey Piranha jumps high, landing on either the center or the sides of the stage. If the player is near or past Petey (near or off the edge) he will jump in place; if closer to the center he will jump to the opposite side. After Roar Petey will usually start jumping twice in a row. This attack [[meteor smash]]es the player into the stage but can't KO. Its damage can be very high, 16% on Easy in Boss Battles without boosts to 40% on Intense in the Subspace Emissary after being boosted by Roar.

During the Midair Stadium battle, "Peach's Cage" and "Zelda's Cage" are displayed next to the health bars; in The Great Maze and in Boss Battles, the cages as aforementioned are empty, and the health bars are simply labeled "Cage".
