A '''Shogun''' is an ant-like creature and a relative to [[Armored Ant]]s found in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. They are seen in the desert region in [[Land's End]] where they reside in whirls in the sand, similarly to {{wp|antlion}} larvae.

By entering the whirls with Shoguns inside, Mario can make his way through Land's End and reach [[Belome Temple]]. However, sometimes the Shogun quickly changes the whirl it is in, and Mario may also have to fight the Shogun before being able to get into the whirl. When getting into one, he reaches another area of Land's End's desert. Jumping on a Shogun outside of battle earns Mario ten coins, and jumping on one three times consecutively earns him one [[Frog Coin]].

This enemy's name is from "{{wp|Shogun}}".

More powerful variants of Shoguns known as [[Armored Ant]]s are found in [[Barrel Volcano]].
