'''Il Piantissimo''' is an arrogant human dressed as a [[Pianta]] who appears in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. He must be footraced by [[Mario]] for a [[Shine Sprite]] on three different occasions: the [[Il Piantissimo's Sand Sprint|fifth episode]] of [[Gelato Beach]], the [[Il Piantissimo's Surf Swim|fifth episode]] of [[Noki Bay]], and the [[Il Piantissimo's Crazy Climb|second episode]] of [[Pianta Village]]. His role is comparable to [[Koopa the Quick]] from ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Il Piantissimo can use most of Mario's moves but cannot use any tactics involving [[F.L.U.D.D.|FLUDD]]. If Il Piantissimo reaches the flag first, Mario loses a life. When the player replays a completed [[Mission|episode]], Il Piantissimo is more difficult to beat, as he finishes the course slightly over the player's previous time.<ref>Cross-reference two videos:<br>{{cite|author=packattack04082|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVuPYSFp1ig&t=15s|title=Super Mario Sunshine - II Piantissimo's Crazy Climb - 13'54|timestamp=00:15|date=November 15, 2008|language=en|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=May 24, 2024}}<br>{{cite|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dh3e5rZuSgg&t=33s|timestamp=00:33|author=Release-Fire|title=''Super Mario Sunshine'' Switch Il Piantissimo's Crazy Climb Pianta Village Episode 2 3D All Stars|publisher=YouTube|language=en|date=September 28, 2020|accessdate=May 24, 2024}}</ref> The first ending screen, if not all 120 Shine Sprites are collected, shows Il Piantissimo looking at [[Bowser Jr.]]'s [[magic brush]] on Gelato Beach. | |||
