'''Sandoons''' are animate sand [[List of enemies|enemies]] with pink plumage on their head and [[Capnap]]-like eyes that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. In the field, Sandoons are submerged in the sand, and their eyes are the only parts visible unless approached; at that point, the Sandoon jumps out of the sand and chases [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] relentlessly for a while if it notices them.
'''Sandoons''' are sand dune [[List of enemies|enemies]] with pink antennas on their head with [[Capnap]] like eyes that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. In the field, Sandoons are submerged in the sand and their eyes are the only parts visible unless approached, and at that point the Sandoon jumps out of the sand and chases [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] relentlessly for a while if it notices them.


The brothers are required to fight two Sandoons who were harassing some of the [[Shelltop]] workers.
In battle, Sandoons may attack by submerging themselves and appearing before the Bro. they're about to charge into while still half-submerged, who must jump to avoid it. Sandoons can also attack by looking at the Bro. they're about to attack, submerging themselves to the point only their eyes can be seen occasionally, then sticking its eyes out each time it gets nearer to the Bros., once close enough, it will pop out under them to swallow them whole. Mario or Luigi must hammer the Sandoon's eyes when it pops out right before the targeted Bro.


==Description==
If eaten, the Bro. will take damage on that Sandoon's every turn including the turn it eats the Bro., but is given a chance to do small but plentiful amounts of damage by frantically shaking about in the Sandoon's mouth while taking damage before attempting this himself. While inside the Sandoon, any damage the Sandoon takes from the other Bro., the Bro. takes half of that. Once the Sandoon holding the Bro. captive is defeated, the Bro. is freed. A Sandoon with a visible mouth (that it also opens in an occasional fashion) will tell the player that the Sandoon has a Bro. Pink Sandoons (or known as '''Mini Sandoons''') also appear but are only seen in the battle with [[Torkscrew]]'s chasing background attack. They are not dangerous at all since they have low power and are too small to swallow Mario or Luigi however they always come in groups of two.

If eaten, the brother takes damage on each of that Sandoon's turn, including the turn it eats them, but he is given a chance to do small but plentiful amounts of damage by frantically shaking about in the Sandoon's mouth while taking damage. While a brother is stuck inside a Sandoon, a mouth becomes visible, opening occasionally; a brother takes half the damage done to that Sandoon by the other brother. Once the Sandoon holding the brother captive is defeated, he is freed. If a Sandoon gulps a brother while a [[Boo Biscuit]] is active, it deactivates for him, and the eaten brother can take damage while in the Sandoon.
Sandoons have dreamy counterparts known as [[Dreamy Sandoon]]s.


Short Sandoons sometimes appear in pairs in [[Torkscrew]]'s battle occasionally during its background attack, and must be jumped over.

Sandoons have [[Dream World]] counterparts known as [[Dreamy Sandoon]]s.
==Trivia==
*If a Sandoon gulps a Bro. while a [[Boo Biscuit]] is active, it will automatically deactivate for Mario and Luigi and the eaten Bro. will be liable to taking damage while in the Sandoon. There is a rare chance of this happening.
