Fire Piranha Plants are a sub-species of Piranha Plant first appearing in Super Mario 3D Land. They are related to Venus Fire Traps but differ. First, they're orange and black instead of the same coloration as a Piranha Plant. Their fireball aiming is also more precise than a Venus Fire Trap. They are also more aggressive than Venus Fire Traps however defeating/avoiding them is not particularly challenging.
History
Super Mario 3D Land
Fire Piranha Plants first appear in Super Mario 3D Land. They mainly appear in caverns and deserts, they wait for Mario (or Luigi) to pass by and they spit a fireball at them. Some leave behind a Fire Flower when they are defeated by Mario.
Super Mario 3D World / Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury
Fire Piranha Plants return in Super Mario 3D World and it's remake. They behave the same way as they did in Super Mario 3D Land. Once again any attack can defeat them.
Super Mario Maker 2
Fire Piranha Plants appear in Super Mario Maker 2 replacing the Venus Fire Traps in the Super Mario 3D World style. They behave similarly to a Venus Fire Trap but they're more aggressive.
Trivia
