'''Ptooies''' are a type of [[Piranha Plant]] that can hover [[Spike Ball]]s over their mouths. Many of them are also capable of walking, though some are stationed within pipes instead. Their name is an onomatopoeia for spitting.
==History==
===''Super Mario Bros. 3''===
[[File:SMB3 Ptooie.jpg|thumb|75px|A Ptooie as seen in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'']]
Ptooies, also referred to as '''Ptooie Plants''',<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 13, page 54.</ref> make their debut in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' as regular enemies. A Ptooie can be identified by the [[Spike Ball|spiked ball]] it suspends in the air over its mouth. Occasionally, Ptooies will blow the spiked ball high into the air, letting passing travelers jump between them. As with standard Piranha Plants, Ptooies can be destroyed with [[fireball]]s, [[hammer]]s, [[Koopa Shell]]s, or [[Raccoon Mario|Raccoon]] or [[Tanooki Mario]]'s tail whips. Additionally, the spiked ball can be crushed by Tanooki Mario (in [[Statue Mario|statue form]]) for 2000 points.


A Ptooie will can be identified by balancing a spiked ball over its mouth, which it will blow upwards every few seconds to harm travelers that try to [[jump]] over the plant creature. The ball will then fall back down to the Ptooie, who will go back to balancing it.
===''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''===
[[File: Ptooies.jpg|thumb|left|Two Ptooies from ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' episode "[[Never Koop a Koopa]]".]]
Ptooies make a few appearances in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', where they always attack [[Mario]] and/or his friends on sight. They are sometimes used as guns. Unlike in the game, where they are limited to blowing a single spiked ball in the air, Ptooies can shoot a whole barrage of spiked balls in any direction.  


As with standard Piranha Plants, Ptooies can be destroyed with [[fireball]]s, [[hammer]]s or [[Koopa Shell]]s.
Ptooies in the show are capable of speaking in the episode "[[Never Koop a Koopa]]", despite the fact that most members of the Piranha Plant family never speak at all.


== Appearances in Other Media ==
===''Nintendo Adventure Books''===
Two Ptooies appear in ''[[Koopa Capers]]'', presumably brought to [[Dark Land]] by [[Wendy O. Koopa]], who needs one to season a potion she intends to create. Encountered by [[Luigi]] in a [[Fortress]], the plumber escapes the plants by jumping over them while absentmindedly wondering what they are doing wandering around in a dark and dank fortress, instead of being outside.


[[Image: Ptooies.jpg|thumb|left|Two Ptooies from ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''.]]
===''Super Princess Peach''===
[[File:SPPPtooie.png|frame]]
Ptooies return in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]''. If [[Princess Peach]] uses [[Rage]] to pound the ground or simply uses [[Poundbrella]] nearby, the ball will be lost, but Ptooie will survive. They will then simply move back and forth slowly until defeated. Even without the ball, Ptooies cannot be stomped. In this game, Ptooies had a green skin coloration similar to the [[Wild Ptooie Piranha]], a species of Piranha Plant found in the [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]]. A species of Ptooie under the [[Vibe Scepter]]'s spell called [[Glad Ptooie]]s appear.


Ptooies made a few appearances in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', where they would always attack [[Mario]] and/or his friends on sight. Unlike in the game, where they were limited to shooting a single spiked ball into the air, Ptooies could shoot a whole barrage of spiked balls in any direction.  
===''Paper Mario'' series===
====''Paper Mario: Color Splash''====
{{quote|Sometimes I just get the urge to beat up a Ptooie. You ever get that urge? They're just so annoying!|Huey|Paper Mario: Color Splash}}
Ptooies return in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', found in [[Mossrock Theater]] and [[the Emerald Circus]]. In battle, they can blow their [[Spike Ball|Spiked Ball]]s with enough force to fall on Mario, but without them, they bite him. They can be summoned by [[Lemmy Koopa]] to assist in battle, along with [[Circus Bro]]s. and [[Juggler Bro]]s.


Interestingly enough, Ptooies on the show were capable of speaking in the episode "[[Never Koop a Koopa]]", despite the fact that most members of the Piranha Plant family never speak at all.
There is also a character named [[Piper]] that is a Ptooie.


== Trivia ==
====''Paper Mario: The Origami King''====
[[File:PMTOK Ptooies jungle.png|thumb|Origami Ptooies in ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'']]
Ptooies make an appearance in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', where origami Ptooies can be encountered as regular enemies. In the [[Shroom City (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|Shroom City]] café, a singing Ptooie can be found alongside a singing [[Dino Rhino]] and a [[Sombrero Guy]].


* The name "Ptooie" is derived from eponymous onomatopoeia for spitting, likely in reference to their ability to balance maces with their mouths.
===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', [[Piranha Plant]] can produce a spiked ball and hover it in place in the same fashion as a Ptooie. In addition, it can direct the spiked ball to other fighters and attack them. This Piranha Plant also has feet like the Ptooie, but does not leave its flower pot in order to move. On the [[Palutena's Temple]] stage, Ptooies are mentioned briefly by [[icaruspedia:Viridi|Viridi]] during [[List of Palutena's Guidance conversations|Palutena's Guidance]] dialogue for Piranha Plant.

===''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''===
[[File:MK8D GBA Riverside Park Scene.jpg|thumb|A Ptooie in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'']]
Ptooies make their ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series (and overall fully three-dimensional) debut in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''{{'}}s ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'' as obstacles in {{classic-link|GBA|Riverside Park}}. They blow items such as [[Dash Mushroom]]s and [[Banana|Banana Peels]] instead of Spike Balls, which fall onto the course when the Ptooies are hit by an item such as a [[Green Shell]].<ref>任天堂ホームページ (March 2, 2023). [https://youtu.be/neUJhWPykbc GBA リバーサイドパーク]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved March 2, 2023.</ref> The Ptooies do not blow any items in Time Trials or when the item settings are not set on Normal Items.
