In ''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins'', Ragumo appear exclusively in the [[Tree Zone]]'s [[Invincibility!|first stage]] and can be found in low-lying areas, such as pits or ditches. To attack, the Ragumo will burrow underground and attempt to pop up in [[Mario]]'s path. However, Mario can swiftly [[jump]] before the Ragumo pops up, thus landing a hit on its head. [[Fireball]]s can also be effective to defeat it, but only when the Ragumo has surfaced.
In ''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins'', Ragumo appear exclusively in the [[Tree Zone]]'s [[Tree Zone Area 1|first stage]] and can be found in low-lying areas, such as pits or ditches. To attack, a Ragumo will burrow underground and attempt to pop up in [[Mario]]'s path. Unlike their [[Monty Mole|relative]] however, Ragumo do not chase Mario and only damage him if he comes in contact with them. Mario can defeat a Ragumo by simply [[jump]] on them before or after they are out of the ground. [[Fireball]]s are also an effective way to defeat a Ragumo, though this only applies once the Ragumo is surfaced, as the fireballs will simply miss the Ragumo while their still underground.

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.

Notably, the Ragumo in this volume is redesigned to heavily resemble a [[Monty Mole]], although the Ragumo still keeps their signature drill.


A Ragumo cameos in volume 10 as one of the enemies Luigi recruits to defeat [[Wario]]. The Ragumo's design in this volume is more faithful to its artwork from its source material.
