The '''Burrowing Snagret''' ({{j|ヘビガラス|Hebi Garasu|Snake Crow}}) is | The '''Burrowing Snagret''' ({{j|ヘビガラス|Hebi Garasu|Snake Crow}}) is an enemy in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]] and the [[boss]] of [[White Flower Garden]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It appears to be a combination of a bird and a snake, and a member of the Snavian family (Snavian being a combination of the words ''snake'' and ''avian'', avian meaning "bird-related"). 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 head into the ground to eat a leader and then regurgitate them – if the attack misses, its head will get stuck in the ground and be vulnerable to attack. | ||

Their only locations in the first game are [[The Forest of Hope]] where 3 appear in the same area, and [[The Final Trial]] on [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]]. In ''Pikmin 2'', a Burrowing Snagret is the boss of [[White Flower Garden]], found on sublevel 5 (this one contains the [[Five-man Napsack]]), and many are encountered throughout [[Snagret Hole]]; one is even guarding the entrance in [[Awakening Wood]], where the three in ''Pikmin'' are located. Another is on sublevel 4 of [[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 ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', Burrowing Snagrets are known to live in the [[Twilight River]]. There are also Burrowing Snagrets in [[Mission Mode]] levels including [[Silver Lake]], [[Tropical Wilds Remix]], [[Garden of Hope Remix]], [[Twilight River Remix]], and [[Shaded Garden Remix]]. There are four of them located in Garden of Hope Remix. | |||

===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 ''Player's Guide=== | |||
''"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 3'' Prima Guide=== | ===''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."'' | |||

In ''Pikmin'', they are extremely hard to beat without losing Pikmin if [[throw]]n at the head, as they have very high [[HP|health]] and are larger than in the second game. Its striking speed will also allow it to eat some Pikmin and burrow back into the ground before any real 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 [[Group move|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, getting stuck for some time. It is best to attack the Snagret then, and Olimar should kill it without losing any Pikmin. With quick, 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 3'', the Burrowing Snagret can be defeated in a matter of seconds by charging at it with 100 Winged Pikmin under the effects of an [[ultra-spicy spray]]. This works because the Snagret will only catch grounded Pikmin, and since the Winged Pikmin can fly, they can both dodge its beak, and aim straight for the head – its weak point. | |||

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.

This boss is named "burrowing" due to its habit of burrowing and remaining underground until prey approach. Although the [[Pileated Snagret]] also burrows, it is a less important characteristic. In Japanese, the creature is called {{j|ヘビガラス|Hebi Garasu}}, which translates to "Snake Crow". Its scientific name is ''Shiropedes anacondii'', where ''anacondii'' is similar to "{{w|anaconda}}", a dangerous type of constricting snake. The internal name in ''Pikmin'' is quite straightforward – <code>snake</code> – and in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3'', it is the same as its translated Japanese name, <code>snakecrow</code>. | |||
