Petey makes an appearance in the first game of the ''Mario Baseball'' series, ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'', as a team member of Wario's in Challenge Mode. In this game he is a Power type character, the strongest in the game with a batting stat of 9/10, tied with Bowser. He is also the slowest runner, with a running stat of 1/10, tied with Red Pianta, Yellow Pianta, Bowser, and most [[Magikoopa]]s. In this game, he has good chemistry with [[Birdo]], [[Donkey Kong]], and [[King Boo]], but he has bad chemistry with [[Princess Daisy]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Noki]], and [[Pianta]]. His chemistry with Birdo tied over to the next game. He has the ability to Body Check, saving him in tight pinches. He also has the strongest throwing arm in the game (despite the fact that his pitching is only around average), and he cannot get body checked when on a base. Also notable is when Petey is fielding, he does not try to catch the ball with a glove and instead eats the ball if he catches it.

Petey Piranha reappears in ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'' again as a Power character. However, unlike in the previous installment, he is available from the start. He also still retains his ability to Body Check, being the only player who can do so. He is also the only player who can perform the [[Piranha Catch]]. Unlike in the last game, he is on [[Peach Monarchs|Peach's team]]. In Challenge Mode, he appears in [[Peach Ice Garden]] in an empty flower pot. If Princess Peach uses her special ability, Petey Piranha appears. To get him to join, the player has to hit the ball into the yellow circle three times. In this game he has compatibility with Birdo, King Boo, [[Blooper]], and [[Wiggler]], but he has bad chemistry with [[Pianta]], [[Noki]], and [[Baby Mario]]. He also appears on the box's game cover, behind [[Toad]] and [[Toadette]].
Line 102:
In both ''Mario Superstar Baseball'' and ''Mario Super Sluggers'', Petey is the only character who does not use a bat/glove or any item at all to hit/catch the ball, as he uses his leaf-like arm. As mentioned before, Petey eats the ball while fielding and simply uses his mouth as a glove.
===''Super Princess Peach''===
[[File:Spp1.jpg|thumb|left|Peach battling Boss Piranha Plant in ''Super Princess Peach''.]]
In ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', '''Boss Piranha Plant''' (named Petey Piranha in British English releases) is the first boss, and he is fought at the end of [[Ladida Plains]]. When Peach arrives she happily approaches an imprisoned Toad but then, Boss Piranha Plant emerges from the ground and swallows the Toad, who is trapped in the ball, and Peach has to defeat Boss Piranha Plant to rescue the Toad. His attacks send shockwaves, pushing back Peach, shooting [[Nipper Plant]]s, shooting one shockwave to the left and one to the right (which can defeat Nipper Plants if there are any not defeated by the princess), and if she is using a vibe power, ending it. Peach has to use her [[Gloom]] vibe to make the two plants grow so that she can leap on a leaf and once again use the vibe to put her streams of tear into Boss Piranha Plant and inflate him, making him fall and reveal his weak spot: his belly button. Peach has to jump on his belly five times to defeat him. After 3 hits, Boss Piranha Plant turns red and becomes faster. Boss Piranha Plant can also bounce around at this point, making Peach's attack tough, and additionally send 2 shockwaves to each side. Once defeated, Boss Piranha Plant explodes and the Toad is saved.
