Nintendo Characters - Petey Piranha

Petey Piranha is a boss character in the Mario series who first appeared in Super Mario Sunshine. Despite the fact that not many fans appreciate the bulbous plant, he's appeared in tons of games, where he not only plays as the boss character, but as a playable character as well in games like Mario Kart: Double Dash!! and Mario Superstar Baseball, among others.

In chronological order, the first game he appears in would be Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, where he appeared far in the past where he ate the future Peach (who traveled through time) whole. Obviously Mario and Luigi (along with their younger counterparts) saved the damsel in distress.

In Super Mario Sunshine, he appeared on top of the windmill in the first level, and would be Mario's first major boss fight (excluding the mini-boss fight with the piranha plant at the beginning of the game).

In New Super Mario Bros. he appeared in the ice world where Mario once again thwarted his plans to destroy him.

Peach got her revenge in her own outing with Super Princess Peach, where she had to (as in Super Mario Sunshine), fill his body with water and would then have to jump on his belly button.
