'''Mammoshka''' is a boss in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. Found near the top of [[Mount Pajamaja]], this mammoth-like creature acts as a guardian for the mountain, and it is battled by [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] in their journey to the mountain's summit. Its name is a pun on "[[Wikipedia:Mammoth|mammoth]]" and "mamushka" (an alternate, erroneous name for [[Wikipedia:Matryoshka doll|Matryoshka]] dolls), both of which form its basis. | '''Mammoshka''' is a boss in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''.

When Mammoshka's health is low, its armor starts to crack, revealing a smaller version of itself underneath. Mario and Luigi then chases the boss as it flees down the mountain, jumping on its head to continue breaking its armor. With proper timing ("A" for Mario, "B" for Luigi), Mammoshka's outer shell gradually shrinks to nothing, revealing its true form. After one last jump to its head from Mario or Luigi at this point, Mammoshka is defeated. | When Mammoshka's health is low, its armor starts to crack, revealing a smaller version of itself underneath.

If the player fails to jump on Mammoshka during the final section of the battle twice, it will jump into another outer shell and resume the battle. It will not however restore health after doing this, so one more hit will break its shell again. | |||

*The encounter with Mammoshka is similar to the one with [[Trunkle]] - they both are seen asleep at some point, they both are in a similarly shaped room, Big Massif & Little Massif at the other end of the room resembles the also similar looking [[Toad (species)|Toads]] on the other side of the room, after they wake up, both of them attack Mario and Luigi upon sight, and Trunkle's desert themed environment parallels Mammoshka's ice themed one. | |||
