'''Piranha Plant''' ({{ja|パックンフラワー|Pakkun Furawā}}, ''Packun Flower'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Revealed alongside {{SSBU|Ken}} and {{SSBU|Incineroar}} on November 1st, 2018, it is the first [[Downloadable content (SSBU)|DLC]] character in ''Ultimate'', and was made available for purchase on February 1st, 2019. However, it was made available at no cost as early as January 29th, 2019 for players who purchased the digital version of ''Ultimate'' or registered their physical version with My Nintendo by January 31st, 2019. Piranha Plant is not part of either Fighters Pass, making it the only DLC character with this distinction. Piranha Plant is classified as [[Fighter number|Fighter #70]].

Piranha Plant is ranked 77th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing it in the D+ tier. Piranha Plant's most noteworthy attribute is its trapping potential. [[Ptooie]] is considered one of the strongest and most versatile projectiles in the game, being able to dish out a lot of damage, cover aerial approaches, be used as a ledgetrapping tool, and even be employed as a defensive deterrent in the event of the opponent interrupting it in close-quarters engagements. [[Poison Breath]] can be utilized to pile on immense damage if Piranha Plant manages to lock in the opponent into its area of effect, or to deny the enemy of approach routes that can circumvent damage. Piranha Plant bolsters these strengths with its possession of very fast frame data on the ground, with moves such as its [[neutral attack]], and [[forward tilt]] being able to be employed as effective damage dealing pokes. Its fast frame data extends to its grab and [[up smash]], benefitting its KO power, as its up throw also serves as a KO throw. These traits round out to make Piranha Plant a highly defensive powerhouse that can respond to several approaches with effective keep away and anti-air options. It is also classified as a [[heavyweight]], offering it a strong level of endurance, which is also complemented by a long-distanced recovery in the form of [[Piranhacopter]].
Piranha Plant is ranked 77th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing it in the D- tier and making it the lowest ranking DLC character overall.

Piranha Plant is almost completely undone however by its lack of mobility. Lacking in range across all of its close-quarters attacks to offset its poor grounded and aerial movement, Piranha Plant struggles immensely in mounting an offensive neutral, and its advantage state is highly reliant on circumstantially effective attacks to keep the opponent at bay. [[Long-Stem Strike]] grants Piranha Plant more range but its high startup, finicky control and vulnerable [[hurtbox]] during its extension phase makes it an inconvenient attack to use in many situations. This is exacerbated by Piranha Plant's moveset lacking in the way of notable synergy; while many of its attacks have decent utility, it has very little in the way of optimal combos or routes to pursue the opponent. Many of its moves and aerials pose high amounts of [[ending lag]], while some such as [[neutral aerial]] and [[up aerial]] are plagued by awkward hitbox placements. Finally, Piranha Plant's reliance on [[Ptooie]] serves as a double-edged sword; as the main cornerstone of its game plan, it is completely invalidated by characters with [[Reflection|reflectors]], making several matchups highly problematic for the character.

==Update history==
==Update history==
Piranha Plant has been significantly buffed in-game updates so far. Patch 3.0.0 increased its edge attack and Ptooie hitbox size, the latter of which makes Ptooie a lot easier to hit with overall as a trading tool and conventional projectile. 3.1.0 gave further small improvements towards its jab, allowing it to function a lot more consistently, with neutral attack 3 now out-ranging neutral attack 2.
Piranha Plant was significantly buffed in game updates.

The first significant set of buffs came in 4.0.0, which provided drastic improvements for Piranha Plant's advantage state and slight improvements to its neutral. Up tilt's decreased lag allowed it to become safe on hit, as well as being much safer on shield and a better combo tool. Dash attack's angle change allows Piranha Plant to set up edgeguards and ledgetraps easier, as well as occasionally KO opponents with bad [[DI]], and Poison Breath's decreased startup and endlag allow Piranha Plant to set up its ledgetrapping faster, and use it more safely in neutral. Finally, Long-Stem Strike's significantly increased shield damage and decreased endlag made it a far more potent pressure tool, being able to cause shieldbreaks much more frequently, working well in tandem with Ptooie's already high shield damage.

|fsdesc= The Piranha Plant summons [[Petey Piranha]], who stomps around the stage with his cages from his boss fight in [[The Subspace Emissary]]. The player has some influence over Petey Piranha's actions: he will always start moving in the direct that Piranha Plant was facing when summoned; he can change direction and hop further based on which way the [[control stick]] is held and by how much; holding a jump input makes him jump higher, dealing damage to opponents below him when landing. Opponents that get hit by a cage will be placed inside of an unoccupied cage, regardless of which cage they are hit by. After three seconds, he will stop hopping and breath fire into each of the cages—the fire can hit characters that aren't in cages, but they take less damage than those inside of cages. Afterwards he will slam both of the cages to the ground, dealing heavy damage and knockback to the opponents who were trapped in the cages as well as anyone too close when he slams them. It is possible for Petey Piranha to fall off the stage, taking any trapped opponents with him, though it is not a guaranteed KO if the opponent has leftover jumps, a strong recovery or both. He also doesn't move much from his starting position, making him easy to avoid if the stage is big enough.
