Piranha Plant (パックンフラワー, Packun Flower) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Revealed alongside Ken and Incineroar on November 1st, 2018, it is the first DLC character in Ultimate, and was released on January 29th, 2019. It is available as a free bonus until January 31st, 2019 to anyone who pre-purchases the digital version of Ultimate or registers their physical version with My Nintendo. While Piranha Plant is not part of the Fighters Pass, it will be available for purchase separately after January 31st. Piranha Plant is classified as fighter #70.
Attributes
|
NOTE: SmashWiki is not speculative. Please refrain from adding detailed data values derived from pre-release gameplay footage, such as Piranha Plant's reveal trailer. Such data (damage values, launch trajectories, frame data, etc.) are subject to change before its official release. |
- Piranha Plant resides in a pot, as its species are depicted in the Mario Party 3 minigame Storm Chasers and in Super Mario 3D World and Mario Kart 8 as items. It sprouts small feet when moving, and moves like a Ptooie.
- It retreats into its pot when crouching.
- Half of its alternate costumes replace the pot with a Warp Pipe.
- Datamining has revealed a weight value of 112, meaning that Piranha Plant weighs more than all heavyweights but less than all super heavyweights.
- Datamining has also revealed it has an average dash speed.
- When Piranha Plant is footstooled while crouching, it will automatically attack the opponent.
- If used in All-Star Smash on a digital copy, it can corrupt the data.

Role in World of Light
Unlike the other fighters, it's unknown if Piranha Plant was captured by Galeem when he engulfed the universe in light, as it doesn't appear in the mode due to its status as downloadable content.
However, if the player starts the mode in an already saved file, Piranha Plant is immediately unlocked for use in the mode. It is unlocked after awakening the 10th fighter on a fresh save file.

Trivia
- Players should be note that playing Piranha Plant on All-Star Mode will corrupt the data.
- This makes it the second downloadable character that can potentially corrupt its data the first being Mewtwo in Smash 4.
- Piranha Plant's official artwork has a UV Mapping error near the base of its pot, where the texture appears to squish vertically.
- Despite the fanbase's bewildered reaction to Piranha Plant's reveal, Masahiro Sakurai stated in an interview that he does not aim to surprise players, stating that "The surprise element quickly fades once the announcement has been made. Rather, I believe it’s important to have a good balance as a game. In the past titles in the series, Mr. Game & Watch, R.O.B. and Duck Hunt Dog were some of the examples we offered outside of people’s typical expectations. However, if we don’t have these types of fighters, and we only had typical “hero/heroine” type fighters in the lineup, there’s not much difference. It’s probably not very interesting. Correct? Also, unlike some main characters from some (not widely known) franchises, Piranha Plant is a character everyone knows well." [1]
- Piranha Plant is the first newcomer in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate to have all its alternate costumes shown in its reveal trailer; in fact, they were all shown in one shot, excluding the main.
- Bowser Jr. was the first character this happened with, when he was revealed in his trailer for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.
- Piranha Plant is the first playable character to be a mob.
- In addition, Ultimate is the first time a generic Piranha Plant has been playable in any game. However, Petey Piranha, a Piranha Plant himself, has been playable in various Mario spin-off games; Fire Piranha Plants are capturable by in Super Mario Odyssey; and Fire Stalking Piranha Plants are playable in Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser and Bowser Jr.'s Journey.
- Piranha Plant is the first (and only, so far) playable character who isn't a Pokémon in the Smash Bros. series to be referred to with gender-neutral pronouns, barring the error in which Dark Samus was referred to as "it" until the mistake was corrected.
- Piranha Plant is the second DLC character to be free for a limited time after launch, the first being Mewtwo in Super Smash Bros. 4.
- Both characters were first to be released as DLC in their respective games.
- Piranha Plant is the first original newcomer in Ultimate to not have a CGI reveal trailer.
- Although red Piranha Plants are usually depicted residing in a pipe in official Mario artwork, the red Piranha Plant is never in a pipe in Ultimate, only in a pot.
- The splash art for Piranha Plant is so far the only one that uses a different font, opposite to the font "DF Gothic Japanese" that was used in every single splash art since Super Smash Bros. 4.
- Along with Robin and Little Mac, Piranha Plant is one of the only characters with a victory pose that features a separate character (in this case, Mario).
- This also makes him the second character to have a victory pose that features another playable fighter, as Robin's involves Chrom.
- When entering a completed World of Light save file after obtaining Piranha Plant, the player will only get a message saying “You can now play as Piranha Plant”. However, the player cannot use Piranha Plant if the mode is not completed.
- The "Prickly Swing" tip says that Piranha Plant turns into a Prickly Piranha Plant when it does its side smash; this is incorrect, as it actually turns into a Spiny Piranha Plant.
