Bullet Seed

Frequently seen in cartoons (static or animated), this is when a character spits a stream of small objects in such a way that the result looks like machine gun fire.

May tie in to Green Thumb since this is, of course, a plant based power.

A common form of Breath Weapon.

Compare and contrast Flechette Storm for a different spray of small projectiles.

One Piece character Chu/Chew uses this with bursts of water.

In an anime-only episode of Ranma ½, Ranma and Genma get into a duel over watermelon slices where they start bouncing all over the place and strafing each other with torrents of spat watermelon seeds. They don't actually hurt each other with them, though, it's more of a contest to them.
- And in the manga, the family is given a small plant meant to punish Oni by detecting their angry faces. At first, it spits out a small spray of seeds hard enough to sting. As it gets frustrated with the Saotomes and the Tendos, it moves on to destructive barrages of armor-piercing spitting.
In Slayers some Monsters can continuously spray lots of weak glowing bolts that resemble tracers from a bundle of machineguns. To a lesser degree, Scatter Brid spell that fires swarms of tiny ball lightnings.

Tabletop RPG

Video Games

The Bullet Seed move in Pokémon, from where the trope takes its name. It's a multi-attack, grass-type move that hits the opponent several times in a row using seeds. It was very weak in the games (though multiple hits makes it much more powerful when Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors gives you an advantage, and in Pokémon Black and White it became far more usable), but was actually usable in the anime when Ash's Treecko learned it (Ash helped tutor Treecko by chewing on watermelon and spitting out the seeds in a similar fashion). Also, it's a very useful move in the Mystery Dungeon games, where it's a ranged attack that can hit multiple enemies at once and base power doesn't exist.
- It's also one of Ivysaur's moves in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and can rack up a considerable amount of damage if you can catch your opponents in it for a few seconds while they are in mid-jump.
- Fun fact: Bullet Seed's original name in Japanese was "Seed Machine Gun".
Yoshi can spit seeds repeatedly in Yoshi's Island, after eating a watermelon.

The entire premise of the game Plants vs. Zombies, although more specifically the Pea Shooter and its offshoots (the Snow Pea, the Repeater, the Threepeater, the Split Pea, and the Gatling Pea).

Real Bullet Examples

Film

The Mask villain Dorian Tyrell uses this to return the favor when he's shot repeatedly, killing his boss, Niko.
- What's odd is that he turns handgun bullets into semi-automatic rifle rounds.
  - The mask is possessed by a trickster god, so its wearer can naturally make use of 'toon physics', where odd is normal (notice how the bullets come out of his boss' gun as complete cartridges, as always happened in the old cartoons).

He goes after Bugs until he runs out of ammo, so he swallows a whole box of elephant gun shells (and exploding rounds, at that!), fires... and gets blowed up real good!
- What was interesting is that El Toro fired the rifle by hitting the stock of it on the ground... after it somehow turned around inside him when he swallowed it so the muzzle faced his front. Ah, well, it's Looney Tunes.
In the Popeye short, Pop-Along Popeye, after eating his spinach, Popeye takes the ranch foreman's ammo belt, and runs it like a belt-fed machine gun as he shoots the bullets from his pipe. As the bullets shave bits of wood from a fence post, the shavings fly into a bottle to make a ship.
