'''Rammerheads''' are shark enemies that appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. Their English name seems to be a portmanteau of "{{wp|hammerhead shark|hammerhead}}" and "ram." They appear only in two levels: [[Rammerhead Reef]] and [[Pipeline Boom Lagoon]]. A smaller variant called a [[Small Rammerhead]] occurs in [[Captain Toad Makes a Splash]].
'''Rammerheads''' are semi-rare enemies from ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. Their name is a portmanteau of "{{wp|Hammerhead shark|hammerhead}}", a species of shark which they resemble, and "ram". They only appear in three levels: [[Rammerhead Reef]], [[Captain Toad Makes a Splash]], and [[Pipeline Boom Lagoon]].


Rammerheads resemble hammerhead sharks with wide, studded heads similar to [[spiked roller]]s. Only the heads of Rammerheads causes damage, and they are defeated only when struck by the player character in their [[Invincible Mario|Invincible form]] or if [[Ground Pound]]ed in their [[Lucky Cat Mario|Lucky Cat form]]. The Rammerheads with the widest heads are a drab purple and typically swim in circles, emulating [[Fire Bar]]s. In dimly lit areas, their bodies appear luminescent. The narrow-headed Rammerheads are pinkish and are typically trailed by [[bubble]]s that contain items. Some of the pinkish Rammerheads leap out of the water. In the ''[[Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia]]'', the narrow-headed sharks are the ones recognized as "'''Small Rammerheads''',"<ref name=sakai>{{cite|author=Sakai, Kazuya (Ambit), kikai, Akinori Sao, Junko Fukuda, Kunio Takayama, and Ko Nakahara (Shogakukan), editors|language=ja|publisher=[[Shogakukan]]|location=Tokyo|date=2015|title="Super Mario 3D World" in 『[[Super Mario Bros.

Rammerheads are pink or purple hammerhead shark-like fish with wide, spiked, roll-shaped snouts. They come in two sizes: the big ones are common, while the small ones are rare. These enemies have three types of attacks: some swim in a predetermined pattern, some swim around stones, and others jump out of the water. Only the spiked portion of their heads cause damage; their bodies themselves are harmless. They can only be defeated by [[Invincible Mario|Invincibility]] or by [[Ground Pound]]ing on them in the [[Lucky Cat Mario|Lucky Cat form]].


In ''[[Bowser's Fury]]'', '''Cat Rammerheads'''{{ref needed}} appear in [[Lake Lapcat]] on the path between [[Clawswipe Colosseum]] and [[Trickity Tower]]. They are functionally identical to their standard counterparts, but appear with fur, cat ears, and a cat tail. When jumping out of the water, their eyes look at [[Mario]]'s position.
They also appear in [[Lake Lapcat]] in ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'' in cat form. They are functionally identical to their standard counterparts, but appear with fur, cat ears, and a cat tail.
