'''Scarracudas''' are piranha-like enemies with silver fangs in ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'' Their name is a pun on the predatory fish, "{{wp|barracuda}}", and "scare", although they actually resemble {{wp|piranha}}s. There are three varieties of Scarracuda: red, green, and black. Red ones simply swim around in a pool of water. However, green ones can jump out of the water and attempt to bite [[Wario]] if he comes too close. Black ones live in the lava, but otherwise act the same as Green Scarracudas. If Wario gets hit by their fangs, he gets hurt. They can only be defeated when Wario runs fast via a [[Max Fastosity Dasherator]], or [[Dash Attack]]ing them while they are in the air.
