Lionfish from Hungry Shark Part 1

A Lionfish in Hungry Shark Trilogy.

Lionfish are a medium-level danger in Hungry Shark Evolution and Hungry Shark World. Lionfish are harmless to the Hammerhead (in HSE) or any L Sharks and above (in HSW), and can only be eaten during Gold Rush for smaller sharks. They deal 15 hit points worth of damage per attack, but if you are not careful they can repeatedly inflict damage. Lionfish are poisonous in real life and that's why they can hurt you very much.


Behavior[]

Like most enemies in Hungry Shark Evolution, Lionfish act naturally until disturbed. When this creature is disturbed, it exposes its sharp, poisonous pins. The creature becomes noticeably larger when defensive. Lionfish will return to their natural state when your shark is out of range. The behavior of the Lionfish will remain the same even when your shark gets stung by them.

Location[]

Lionfish can be found near land. They are most common near the Daily Bonus treasure chest and where the Reef Shark spawns, but are also very common in gaps between rocks and areas affected by an underwater current. Lionfish are rarely ever found alone; they usually appear in groups of four or five; sometimes even more. It can be eaten by a hammerhead and stronger.

Appearance in Hungry Shark World[]

Not much has changed about Lionfish in this game. They can be eaten by a large shark and above, and will spawn in the Pacific Islands.

Trivia[]

  • Eating Lionfish sometimes makes "Delicacy!" or "Lion Tamer!" pop up.
  • However, eating a Lionfish during Gold Rush always makes "Lion Tamer!" pop up. It is unknown if this is a bug or not.
  • Unlike other poisonous prey, Lionfish dish out their damage in instant bursts, unlike others such as Jellyfish which simply accelerate the health decreasing rate.
  • In the game, when Lionfish sting, the sting is accompanied by a hissing noise.
  • Lionfish can be eaten by Hammerheads or higher.
  • Rarely, maybe caused by a bug, Lionfish can be eaten by Reef and Mako Shark outside the Gold Rush.
  • Lionfish usually spawn near the surface or deeper, and sometimes, in caves.
  • There is a cave-like formation near the Daily Rewards chest where Lionfish always spawn.
  • Lionfish can spawn in packs of 6 or more!
