You can use two ways to adopt the Hammerhead Shark in Adopt Me: Buying with Doubloons and Trading with other players. Here are the details:

1) Buying with Doubloons

After exiting your house, go to the Adoption Island via its tunnel and visit the Summer Shop.

You will find all three latest critters for sale behind the Baby Shop. The Hammerhead Shark, displayed above a black cage, costs 11,000 Doublons.

If you’re short of Doubloons, there are various methods to earn them. Here is the list:

• Play the new Treasure Defense mini-game: You must defend the treasure against Kelp Raiders in this mini-game. There are various items that help you defeat the raiders, such as an Anvil, Barrel, Bomb, Coconut, Crate, and Dynamite. It rewards Doubloons for the amount of Gold saved and participation.
• AFK Beach: Visiting the AFK Beach helps you earn Doubloons passively. You can get 25 Doubloons for every 15 seconds spent on the beach.
• Beach Bonfire: You can also earn Doubloons by curing the Beach Bonfire ailment of your Pet. After a critter gets the ailment, visit the bonfire in the Summer Shop and listen to stories told by the Gravedigger. You can get 250 Doubloons after the ailment gets cured.

Like other Pets in Adopt Me, Hammerhead Shark goes through six growth stages: Newborn, Junior, Pre-teen, Teen, Post-Teen, and Full Grown. It learns a new trick at every stage, as follows:

• Newborn: Sit
• Junior: Joyful
• Pre-Teen: Beg
• Teen: Jump
• Post-Teen: Trick 1
• Fully Grown: Trick 2

You can make Neon and Mega Neon variants of this critter. However, it might require a lot of grinding while purchasing with Doubloons. So, you can use the trading method to obtain the required numbers.

Combining four Fully Grown Hammerhead Sharks makes one Neon variant, and four Neon variants make one Mega Neon Hammerhead Shark.
