Fire P-Pakkun are fire breathing versions of Jumping Piranha Plants that first appear in Super Mario World.

History

Super Mario World / Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2

Fire P-Pakkun are introduced in Cookie Mountain and the Special Zone. They mainly appear in the level Outrageous. A lone Fire P-Pakkun is also found in the level Groovy, and another one is found in Funky. They behave a lot like Jumping Piranha Plants except that they can also spit two fireballs similar to Venus Fire Traps, though a Fire P-Pakkun's fireball goes in two separate directions. They are rare as there are only seven of them that appear in the entire game.

They look like teeny Piranha Plants with leafy little feet. Though adorable, their fire is still fire, so stay alert.
