The title of this article is conjectural; an official name for the article's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

Enemy from original version of Wario Land II.

Kamukamu is an enemy in Wario Land II. It is a small, sharp-toothed fish resembling Big Kamukamu.

Kamukamu swim around the room in a diagonal pattern, turning around and going up or down whenever they hit a wall. If they see Wario, they charge at him while snapping their jaws before swimming away. If caught, Wario will be held in the maw until shaken off. They are rare, appearing in only one area each in the Turn off the giant faucet! and Escape from the Tea Cup! stories.

Unused Kamukamu sprite in the Game Boy Color version of Wario Land II

Strangely, these enemies can only be encountered in the original Game Boy version, as they went unused and replaced by sawfish in the Game Boy Color update.[1] However, they exist with fully redrawn graphics in the files of the Game Boy Color version.[2]
