The '''Burrowing Snagret''' ({{j|ヘビガラス|Hebi Garasu|Snake Crow}}) is an [[enemy]] in the {{pg}}, and is a [[boss]] in {{p2}} and a mini-boss in {{p3}}. It appears to be a combination of a bird and a snake, and is a member of the [[Snavian family]]. It remains underground for the majority of the time, surfacing only when approached by [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or a [[leader]]. In the first two games, it has a chance of struggling to fully emerge for a few seconds before attacking. When above ground, it attempts to eat Pikmin one by one until it is sufficiently damaged, at which point it burrows back underground. In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', it can also stab its beak into the ground to eat a leader and then regurgitate them &ndash; if the attack misses, its beak will get stuck in the ground and its head will be vulnerable to attack.

When killed in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']], Burrowing Snagrets explode into many [[pellet]]s; in ''Pikmin 2'', a dead Burrowing Snagret leaves behind its head to be returned to an [[Onion]] or the [[Research Pod]]. In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', the Snagret's entire body comes out of the ground to be salvaged, revealing a foot much like the one on a [[Pileated Snagret]].

==Locations==
In {{p1}}, 3 Burrowing Snagrets are found in the same area of [[The Forest of Hope]], one of which contains the [[Geiger Counter]]. One is also found in [[The Final Trial]] in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]].

In {{p2}}, a Burrowing Snagret is the main boss of the [[White Flower Garden]], found on sublevel 5 (this one contains the [[Five-man Napsack]]), and many are encountered throughout the [[Snagret Hole]]; one is even guarding the entrance in the [[Awakening Wood]], where the three in ''Pikmin'' are located. Another is on sublevel 4 of the [[Hole of Heroes]], and yet another guards the [[Pink Menace]] in the [[Valley of Repose]]. Burrowing Snagrets are the most common boss-class enemies in ''Pikmin 2'', having eight different in-game occurrences outside of [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]].

In {{p3}}, there is a Burrowing Snagret in the [[Twilight River]], holding the [[Insect Condo]]. There are also Burrowing Snagrets in [[Mission Mode]] levels, including [[Silver Lake]], [[Tropical Wilds Remix]], [[Garden of Hope Remix]] (which contains 4 of them), [[Twilight River Remix]], and [[Shaded Garden Remix]]. In the [[Side Stories]], 1 can be found in [[Looking for Louie]]. In [[Bingo Battle]], 1 can be found in layout C of [[Arid Metropolis]], and 2 can be found in layout B of [[Parched Brook]].

===Nintendo Player's Guide===
''"The Burrowing Snagret's weak spot is its head. Toss Pikmin at the bird-snake's skull as it's emerging from the ground, and let them go to work on the beast. Call them before they're shaken off and prepare for another assault."''

===''Pikmin'' Official Player's Guide description===
''"The white-headed snagret is a subterranean dweller characterized by a birdlike head and a snakelike body. Its avian head features white plumage and a long, pointed beak, which it uses for digging, while its reptilian body is covered with blue scales. White-headed snagrets burrow in flocks and they will rear their heads when surface vibrations alert them to possible prey above ground. The blueish hue of its feathers distinguishes it from the burrowing snarrow."''

===''Pikmin'' Nintendo Power Booklet description===
{{transcript|Snagrets usually hang out in groups of three, and their agile beaks are capable of plucking up devastating numbers of Pikmin. When attacked, they temporarily retreat underground.}}

===''Pikmin 3'' Prima Guide===
''"As its name implies, the Burrowing Snagret spends most of its time underground. When it senses potential prey, however, this creature emerges and uses its powerful beak to snatch up any victims in range. The Burrowing Snagret's body it protected by scales, making the creature's head its only weak point.''

''Each time a Burrowing Snagret emerges from the ground, there's a brief pause just after the creature's beak appears -- this brief window is the only opportunity you'll have to execute a successful charge. If your Pikmin can latch onto the creature's head before it's fully exposed, they'll be able to do a significant amount of damage in a very short time. Winged Pikmin can charge the Burrowing Snagret's head whenever it's above ground, but you'll need a large squad to compensate for the Winged Pikmin's low attack power.''

''If you can't seem to land a successful charge attack, flank the Burrowing Snagret's side and toss your Pikmin directly onto the creature's head. This method makes it fairly difficult to keep your squad out of harm's way, but it does allow you to deal reliable damage for the duration of the battle."''

==Strategy==
[[File:Two Burrowing Snagrets.jpg|thumb|Olimar fighting a pair of Burrowing Snagrets in [[The Forest of Hope]].]]
{{guide}}
In ''Pikmin'', they are extremely hard to beat without losing Pikmin if [[throw]]n at the head, as they have very high [[health]] and are quite large. Its striking speed will also allow it to eat some Pikmin and burrow back into the ground before any significant damage is done. When trying to defeat it in the first game, the best strategy is to throw Red Pikmin at its head while it's emerging from the ground as fast as you can, then whistling in your Pikmin right before it shakes them off to prevent them being eaten. Another effective, but risky way is to [[swarm]] the head in hopes of making the Burrowing Snagret retreat underground.

In ''Pikmin 2'', defeating one is an easier task because of its lower health; even so, it remains a good idea to use [[Purple Pikmin]]. It is easy to take advantage of the fact that sometimes, the beast will not fully emerge from the ground, getting stuck for some time. It is best to attack the Snagret then, as it is possible to defeat it without losing any Pikmin. With quick and accurate throwing, however, this is not necessary to secure the battle. Throw many Pikmin at its head as soon as possible and the Snagret should die before managing to swallow any of the Pikmin that it may have snatched up from the ground. In ''Pikmin 2'', attacks to the body will only cause 10% normal damage. Statistically, both in ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', every time the creature emerges it has a 40% chance of getting stuck.<ref>Local Parameter <code>{s10}</code> in <code>/dataDir/bosses/snake/parms.bin</code>, in ''Pikmin''</ref> That said, a Burrowing Snagret will never get stuck the first time of the day that it unburrows, in ''Pikmin''.

In the first two games, if it burrows back underground without swallowing Pikmin it has caught, these Pikmin will die. In the first game, it was the root of many [[Glitches in Pikmin#Counter glitch|glitches involving the counter]].

In ''Pikmin 3'', the health is even lower, and [[Winged Pikmin]] can be [[charge]]d directly onto its head to defeat it quickly, especially under the effects of an [[ultra-spicy spray]]. The boss can only eat Pikmin on the ground. It is helpful to stay away from its beak, as if it eats a leader, it can take a while to get all your Pikmin back into your squad.

It is not possible to defeat the Burrowing Snagret with [[leader]]s alone.

==Burrowing Snarrow==
{{main|Snavian family#Burrowing Snarrow|t1=Burrowing Snarrow}}
The Burrowing Snarrow is a creature that is referred to only twice in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]], but never seen. The first of these mentions is in the [[enemy reel]] at the end of [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']], while the second is in [[Olimar's notes]] [[#Olimar's notes|on the Burrowing Snagret]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''{{'s}} [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]].

==In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series==
The Burrowing Snagret appears as a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''.

===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' Assist Trophy===
The Burrowing Snagret appears in {{ssbu}} as an Assist Trophy, in its ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' design. When summoned, it will emerge from the floor (even go-through platforms) near an opponent, and will idle for a second before unleashing three quick stabs towards the opponent. It can peck at the ground or the air. It will then bury back down and reemerge elsewhere, repeating the process. Like other Assist Trophies, it can be KO'd if it takes enough damage. It makes the Burrowing Snagret death sound from ''Pikmin'' when it emerges, and also when it is KO'd.{{cite youtube|AFHgO8rMzcg?|of Olimar's introduction to ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', demonstrating the Snagret Assist Trophy|s=10}}

==Trivia==
*The Burrowing Snagret can be seen in a pre-release [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7x245evHAhQ video] of ''Pikmin'', where it appears to have a light or white body. This most likely originates from its [[Pikipedia:Japanese#Japanese names and common names|Japanese name]] which means "White-tailed snake crow".
*In the ''Super Smash Bros. series'', the Burrowing Snagret trophies contain a few [[mistake]]s.
**The ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]'' trophy states that no one has ever seen a Burrowing Snagret's tail before. However, Olimar states in the Piklopedia that the Burrowing Snagret and Snarrow can both be distinguished by the markings on their tails, implying that Olimar has seen its full body, or at least its tail. ''Pikmin 3'' further confuses the matter by showing that the Snarget has no tail, as seen by defeating it.
**The ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' trophy erroneously omits ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' from the list of games. The ''Pikmin'' trophies in ''Smash 4'' always list the first two games, except for this one. In addition, the Snagret is more common in ''Pikmin 2'' compared to ''Pikmin 3'', especially considering it appears the most in the second game's story mode, and only once in the third game's. This makes the ''Pikmin 2'' omission a mystery.
**In the US [[Region|version]] of ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', the description claims that the creature belongs to the "avian" family, instead of the [[snavian family]].
*The Burrowing Snagret is the most commonly fought boss in all 3 games, as it can be fought 4 times in the first game, 9 times in the second game, and 10 times in the third game.
**If one only counts story mode, then this title is lost in ''Pikmin 3'', as it is only encountered once. It is also fought in the {{p3d}} [[Side Stories]] mode once.
*The [[enemy reel]] [[Mistake|mistakenly]] states that its body is lined with feathers.
**This mistake is not present in the Japanese [[Region|version]], where the method given for distinguishing the Burrowing Snagret from the Burrowing Snarrow is the same that would later be described in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 3)|Piklopedia]].
*In ''Pikmin 2'', this enemy and the [[Pileated Snagret]] shake the least when damaged, meaning their model stretches the least amount of all enemies.
*It is the only boss that appears in every mainline ''Pikmin'' game.
*In ''Pikmin 2'', when the creature dies, its body shrinks while the head remains the same size. With the closest [[camera|zoom]] settings, it is possible to see its small body in-game. The same happens with the [[Pileated Snagret]], [[Toady Bloyster]], and [[Ranging Bloyster]].
