Ragumo only appear in two volumes of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''.


A Ragumo appears in the final chapter of volume 6, where when Mario enters the [[Tree Zone]], he and his [[Carrot]] friend are ambushed by the Ragumo. Mario tries luring the Ragumo with his Carrot but the Carrot kicks him in the air. Mario then proceeds to attempt throwing [[fireball]]s at the Ragumo, but it pops up on the other side unharmed. A [[Bopping Toady]] helps the Ragumo by pinning Mario down using its tongue. The Carrot tries helping Mario but it is quickly destroyed when the Ragumo drills through it. The Ragumo then attempts to drill through Mario next, but Mario uses his [[Bunny Mario|Bunny Ears]] to try and stop the Ragumo's drill. As the Ragumo drills, Mario spots a [[Super Mushroom|Mushroom]] that he uses to power up his Bunny Ears to break the Ragumo's drill and slap the Bopping Toady. Notably, the Ragumo heavily resembles a Monty Mole in this volume, looking nearly like them with the only difference being their drill.
A singular Ragumo appears in the final chapter of volume 6 as a major enemy. When Mario enters the [[Tree Zone]], he and his [[Carrot]] friend are ambushed by the Ragumo, with Mario attempting to lure the Ragumo with his Carrot, but the Carrot kicks Mario into the air. Mario then proceeds to attempt throwing [[fireball]]s at the Ragumo, but they pops up on the other side unharmed. A [[Bopping Toady]] helps the Ragumo by pinning Mario down using their tongue. The Carrot tries helping Mario but they are quickly destroyed when the Ragumo drills through it. The Ragumo then attempts to drill through Mario next, but Mario uses his [[Bunny Mario|Bunny Ears]] to try and stop the Ragumo from drilling into him. As the Ragumo attempts to drill into Mario, he spots a [[Super Mushroom|Mushroom]] that he uses to power up his Bunny Ears, allowing him to break the Ragumo's drill and slap the Bopping Toady pinning him. Notably, the Ragumo heavily resembles a Monty Mole in this volume, looking nearly like one with the only major difference being their drill.


A Ragumo cameos in volume 10 as one of the enemies Luigi recruits to defeat [[Wario]]. The Ragumo's design in this volume looks more faithful to its artwork from ''Super Mario Land 2''.

In the first ''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins'' volume, several Ragumo emerge out of the ground and surround [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach|Peach]], and a friendly [[Battle Beetle]], alongside the other [[Tree Zone]] inhabitants. However, Mario eats a [[Carrot]] to become [[Bunny Mario]] to escape from the Tree Zone enemies while carrying his friends. Much later, a Ragumo can be seen in one of the tunnels in the [[Macro Zone]]'s [[The Ant Monsters|first area]], despite never appearing in [[Macro Zone]] in the game.

In the third ''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins'' volume, a Ragumo can be seen as one of the several enemies that Mario and [[Luigi]] quickly pass by on their way to [[Wario Castle]]. Later on, a Ragumo, alongside other Tree Zone inhabitants, can be briefly seen as [[Wario]] announces his plan.
