Sharkey, Tyrant of the Shire's last ability uses a new template indicating that you may spend mana as though it were mana of any type to activate Sharkey, Tyrant of the Shire's abilities. The six types of mana are white, blue, black, red, green, and colorless.

6/16/2023·wotc

Sharkey, Tyrant of the Shire gains only activated abilities, excluding activated mana abilities. It doesn't gain keyword abilities (unless those keyword abilities are activated), triggered abilities, or static abilities.

If an activated ability of a land an opponent controls references the card it's printed on by name, treat Sharkey, Tyrant of the Shire's version of that ability as though it referenced Sharkey, Tyrant of the Shire by name instead.
