So, Piranha Plant is coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Ready yourself for a barrage of jokes.
I’ve already been told I’m on the wrong side of history for not really getting Piranha Plant as a character in Smash, and you know what? It’s fine. Go enjoy your plant, weirdos. I cried literal, real tears over Isabelle in Smash, so I have no room to talk.
No matter if you love it or hate it, it’s really easy to riff on Smash adding a man-eating plant to its roster. I, for one, can’t wait to lose to this freaking house plant.

I apologize as I usually do not post personal opinions on this account, but I would like to thank Masahiro Sakurai and the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate team from the bottom of my heart for their inclusion of Piranha Plant as a playable fighter. Regular posting will now resume.

I’m weirdly stoked none of the Smash Bros leaks were true. I’m glad Nintendo can still keep their secrets on lockdown. And I’m still laughing how cries of “Geno!” and “Banjo-Kazooie!” were answered with fucking Piranha Plant. My glorious, hungry, armless son.

“piranha plant in smash bros.” is very “8 year-old just learned to lie about who’s in smash bros.” which is GREAT because kids are by default more imaginative than some bloated beardo crying that it doesn’t have the hero of some C-grade RPG

Today is the day I have to accept that Piranha Plant…..a common mario enemy……has possibly made it in over Sora.
A plant made it in over Shadow, Rex, Isaac, and other amazing characters.
Today we lost to a Piranha Plant. I am taking the longest walk for my soul. I have to.

I love that it’s not even petey.
I’d be more into it if it was Petey instead of Petey being the final smash. Weird choice, I’ll likely preorder to get my hands on it.
Still a better pick than the furry-bait Incineroar
You can get it through to Jan, just register your game or get it digitally. No need to pre order.
After Ken (boring) and Incineroar (who wanted this?), I was actually happy when the plant showed up out of the blue.
Not one single “insider” predicted it, outside of one anonymous post on 4chan in september which gained no traction.
Sakurai is fueled by the salt from Waluigi fans.
Dude I’m definitely going to get the Piranha Plant DLC character for free just by purchasing the physical version of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate that’s coming out next month and registering Super Smash Bros. Ultimate to receive not only Gold Points with a My Nintendo Account but also receive a download code to get the Pirahna Plant DLC character for free.
I’m all in for this free DLC character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and you know it.
I love people getting weirded out by a fighting Piranha Plant. At least a plant is living. Go back to Fighters Megamix and see Hornet, the car from Daytona USA, standing on its back two wheels and fighting, and then tell me about weird characters. =P

Uh, the Internet is slow today.
