In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', Petey Piranha is the boss of [[World 5 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 5]], the snow-ice world. Many [[Piranha Plant]]s appear in Petey Piranha's castle, a subtle hint that he is going to appear as the boss at the end. When he is confronted by Mario or Luigi, he attacks by flying up high, then dropping from the sky, attempting to crush Mario or Luigi beneath him with a move similar to the Ground Pound. Since the floor is made of slippery ice, after attacking, he slips and falls. Then, Mario or Luigi can attack him. After two hits, he starts his attack by jumping from side to side. If Mario defeats him using a [[Mini Mushroom]], he can travel to [[World 7 (NSMB)|World 7]] instead of [[World 6 (NSMB)|World 6]]. However, he is forced to Ground Pound him to inflict damage upon him when tiny. Once defeated, Petey Piranha attempts to get up while glowing a bright white light (similar to Mario, Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario's death animations in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''); he soon vanishes, revealing the key.
