Hitbox visualization showing Piranha Plant's forward smash.

Overview[edit]

Piranha Plant turns into a Prickly Piranha Plant and swings its head forward. It is by far Piranha Plant's best kill option when sweetspotted, capable of killing at ~65% on the ledge ofFinal Destination. It is disjointed due to the head intangibility provided, and is rather fast for how powerful it is, making it a great option to throw out on unsuspecting opponents, or as a hard read tool. It has a sourspot that has priority over the sweetspot, however, which makes forward smash slightly unreliable at closer ranges. It also has a somewhat large amount of endlag, being very punishable if missed or shielded. It also has Piranha Plant reel back slightly, which can cause some moves to whiff.
