'''Rammerheads''' are shark enemies that appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. They resemble {{wp|hammerhead shark}}s with wide, studded heads similar to [[spiked roller]]s, with their eyes on the farthest ends of them. They are adrab purple and typically swim in circles, emulating [[Fire Bar]]s. In dimly lit areas, their bodies appear luminescent.
'''Rammerheads''' are semi-rare enemies from ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. Their name is a portmanteau of "hammerhead" and "rammer". They only appear in three levels: [[Rammerhead Reef]], [[Captain Toad Makes a Splash]], and [[Pipeline Boom Lagoon]].


Only the heads of Rammerheads causes damage—the rest of their bodies is undamaging. 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]]. In the original ''Super Mario 3D World'' campaign, Rammerheads appear in three courses: [[Captain Toad Makes a Splash]], [[Rammerhead Reef]], and [[Pipeline Boom Lagoon]]. While most Rammerheads are large sharks, the one in the foremost course is about the same size as [[Captain Toad]]. It is also the only normal Rammerhead in the game that breaches from water, and Captain Toad has no means of defeating it.
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]].


The English name "Rammerhead" seems to be a portmanteau of "hammerhead" and "ram." On the [[Mario Portal|Mario Portal Game Archive]] for the original ''Super Mario 3D World'', the one from Captain Toad Makes a Splash is referred to as the "'''Small Rammerhead''',"<ref name=portal>{{cite|url=www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/archives/3d_world/?lang=en English|title=''Super Mario 3D World'' entry on the official Mario Portal|publisher=nintendo.co.jp|accessdate=August 13, 2022|archive=archive.ph/R0Amc|archivedate=August 12, 2022, 23:46:25 UTC}}</ref> whereas that name is applied to the more recurring [[Small Rammerhead|pink ones]]  in the ''[[Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia]]'' and the Mario Portal Game Archive for ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''.<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. Encyclopedia|スーパーマリオブラザーズ百科: 任天堂公式ガイドブック]]』|page=226|isbn=978-4-09-106569-8}}</ref>
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, pointed ears, and a tail.
