| '''????''' is a type of enemy found in [[Gwarhar Lagoon]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. They can be a "'''Sharkbone'''" or what appears to be a [[Blurp]] with a shark fin attached to its back. These enemies always appear in groups that include both Sharkbones and Blurps, so it is impossible to tell which kind would attack until the very last moment of the creature's attack.

| The name "Sharkbone" is actually based on [[List of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga beta elements|unused enemy name text]] and appears as the undead shark's name in the [[Nintendo Power]] guide<ref>''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' [[Nintendo Power|The Official Nintendo Player's Guide]]. Pages 88 & 127</ref>. This guide also refers to the Blurp-like fish as '''[[Puffer-Cheep]]'''<ref>''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' [[Nintendo Power|The Official Nintendo Player's Guide]]. Page 88</ref> or '''Puffer Cheep'''<ref>''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' [[Nintendo Power|The Official Nintendo Player's Guide]]. Page 127</ref>, which is actually a different [[Cheep Cheep]] form encountered underneath [[Oho Ocean]] in the [[Oho Ocean Seabed]] (which is, itself, erroneously referred to as '''Puffy Cheep'''<ref>''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' [[Nintendo Power|The Official Nintendo Player's Guide]]. Page 86</ref>). Additionally, the European version of ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' contains "'''Sand-Cheep'''" replacing the equally-unused "Sharkbone" name in the German text.<ref>[http://themushroomkingdom.net/m&lss_lost.shtml#sharkbone The Mushroom Kingdom: Lost Bytes]</ref>

| "Blurp" ???? also make a brief appearance in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'' - they are used as projectiles of [[Shrooba Diver]]s and bounce over the four heroes. The [[Junior Shrooboid]] is also referred to as ???? in Japan and Europe. The [[Hermite Crab]]'s shells and [[Antasma]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'' are labeled as "????" in-game, but the name connection is coincidental.

| ==Attacks==
| |
| The ???? has two attacks, depending on which type it is: Sharkbones burrow under and attack [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] for large damage and possible [[Poison (status effect)|Poison]]; the Blurp-like fish will [[jump]] right over Mario or Luigi, but if they jump, they will get hurt. ???? shuffle places each time one of them attacks, making it quite difficult to tell whether an attacker will be above or below Mario or Luigi. Therefore, the Mario Bros. could get hurt by a Blurp type, expecting it to be a Sharkbone, and vice-versa.
| |
| The sharkbones stick their head out of the sand before attacking, while the Blurps provide no warning. However, when the brothers perform a regular [[Thunder Bros.]] attack on ????'s, and if at least one of them turns out to be a Sharkbone, the affected Sharkbones will immediately attack Mario and/or Luigi, one at a time.

| |
| *Despite some ???? being the "Sharkbone" variety, sharks do not have bones in the [[Earth|real world]] - their skeletons are made of cartilage.
