''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' also has a Piranha Plant boss named [[Naval Piranha]], who is grown gigantic in size by [[Kamek]]'s magic. [[Propeller Piranha|Hootie the Blue Fish]], an indigo variant that can fly with its propeller-like leaves and has serrated lips instead of teeth, makes its debut in this game, alongside the [[Wild Ptooie Piranha]], a powerful, green [[Pokey (projectile)| | ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' also has a Piranha Plant boss named [[Naval Piranha]], who is grown gigantic in size by [[Kamek]]'s magic.

The [[Blow Hard]] enemy resembles a Piranha Plant, but itself is actually a type of [[Pokey]]. [[Nipper Plant]]s also appear as enemies in ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''; here, Nipper Plants are usually spawned from [[Nipper Spore]]s, which Naval Piranha is capable of spitting. | ||
