| Variant of | Bandinero |
Buccaneros are a type of Bandinero that wield swords in Wario Land: Shake It! They are purple, with a yellow bandana-cap and a yellow-white-yellow pattern vest. They also have gray pants and yellow shoes. If Wario comes too close to these enemies, they try to attack him by swinging their sword wildly. These rare enemies only appear in two areas: the tutorial area (The Sweet Stuff) and occasionally during the battle against Large Fry.
One of the game's several unused bosses involves a tower of Buccaneros standing on top of one another. It can be assumed that they would have played a larger role earlier in development.

Heh. A Bandinero found a sword and wants to be called a Buccanero. Isn't that cute? OUCH! HEY! Cut it out! That thing's sharp![1]

- Threat:
- A rare form of enemy that's encountered early in the adventure, Buccaneros like to charge Wario, swinging wildly with their sharp sabers. Don't dash straight into Buccaneros or they'll slice you up; stun them with a fast Earthshake Punch instead. Once stunned, Buccaneros can be treated just like lowly Bandineros: Shake them for garlic and toss them about as you like.[2]
