''' | The '''Sharkbone''' is an enemy that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|Nintendo 3DS version]] They are skeletal shark-like creatures encountered in [[Gwarhar Lagoon]], and they always appear in groups with the dorsal fin-wearing [[Sand Cheep]]s; both remain submerged up to their dorsal fin in the sands in order to disguise themselves. Both enemies are also often fought with [[Beanerang Bro]]s. Sharkbone's was originally based on [[List of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga pre-release and unused content|unused enemy name text]], and it also appeared as the undead shark's name in the [[Nintendo Power]] guide.<ref>{{cite|author=Thomason, Steve|title=''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' Player's Guide|page=88 and 127|date=2003|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|isbn=1-930206-43-7}}</ref> | ||
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 battle, Sharkbones and Sand Cheeps appear under the name '''????'''; only their dorsal fins are visible, making it hard to tell them apart.

If the brothers perform a [[Thunder Bros.]] attack or an [[Advanced Command|Advanced]] [[Fire Bros. (move)|Fire Bros.]] attack on a group of Sand Cheeps and Sharkbones, any Sharkbones that are hit will immediately attack the Mario Bros., one at a time. In addition, targeting one of the underground enemies with the Advanced Thunder Bros. and [[Chopper Bros.]] attacks will reveal their identity as Luigi uppercuts them out of the ground. | If the brothers perform a [[Thunder Bros.]] attack or an [[Advanced Command|Advanced]] [[Fire Bros.

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. | In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', Sharkbones are level 25, which makes them distinguishable from the level 24 Sand Cheeps.
