Sharkbone: Difference between revisions

|relatives=[[Sand Cheep]]

}}

In battle, Sharkbones and Sand Cheeps appear under the name '''????'''; only their dorsal fins are visible, making it hard to tell them apart. In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', the top of any Sand Cheeps present will be visible for a few seconds at the start of the battle. This, in turn, hints at the position of any Sharkbones. They attack by swimming through the sand to stop in front of one of the Mario Bros., then surface for a moment before lunging and trying to bite their target. The attack can be dodged or countered by [[jump]]ing, and [[Poison (status effect)|poisons]] [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] if they are hit. The Bros. must watch the enemies carefully to avoid jumping prematurely and hitting a leaping Sand Cheep instead. Any Sharkbones and Sand Cheeps that have attacked and were not defeated will promptly shuffle positions after their turn, making it harder to track them.

In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', Sharkbones are level 25, which makes them distinguishable from the level 24 Sand Cheeps. The [[Easy Mode]] hints will also show which of the enemies named "????" are Sharkbones.
