The Burrowing Snagret (ヘビガラス?, lit.: "Snake Crow") is a boss in the Pikmin games, it has low health for a boss but it often appears in groups. 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 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 – if the attack misses, its beak will get stuck in the ground and its head will be vulnerable to attack. In Pikmin 4, fledgling versions called Downy Snagrets can be found.

When killed in Pikmin, Burrowing Snagrets explode into 7 random 1 pellets and a 5 pellet; 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 Pikmin, 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.

In Pikmin 2, 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.

In Pikmin 3, 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.

Notes

Olimar's voyage log

“This large, subterranean life-form suddenly erupts from underground to feast on nearby Pikmin. Its body is covered in slick scales, which render Pikmin attacks ineffective. Surely, it has a weak point somewhere...”

Reel notes

“The bluish hue of its feathers distinguishes it from the burrowing snarrow.”

Olimar's notes

“The majority of snagret species lie in wait to ambush and capture prey, with a body type perfectly adapted to such sudden strikes. It violently attacks small, surface-dwelling insects. Distributed across a relatively wide range, subspecies of snagret suited to the varying soil conditions have emerged, making the snagret the most geographically represented species besides the bulborb. Visually resembling the burrowing snagret is the burrowing snarrow, the range of which partially overlaps with the snagret's range. While the two may appear similar, when pulled from the ground they can be distinguished by the presence or absence of tail and wing markings.”

Louie's notes

“Slice the serpentine torso into thin medallions, skewer on a metal rod with Hocotate onions, and barbecue over an open flame.”

Alph's comments

“Structural flaw: beak
Weight: 10

Its bulk and speed make it a very fearsome model. It's very difficult to retrieve a Pikmin once it's snapped one up in its beak. However, if you can dodge its beak as it comes down, the beak's sharpness works against it as it gets stuck in the soil. That leaves the head wide open to be pelted with Pikmin as fast as you can.”

Brittany's comments

“I've never seen the bottom half of one of these. I have all sorts of ideas about what might be under there. It could be a long snake tail, or a big, plump body stuck underground. Or maybe, below the neck, it looks just like us.”

Charlie's comments

“Now, I get that it's big, and that big things are scary. But that twisty neck can't twist all the way around, so all you have to do is get behind it. Once you're there, pour on the Winged Pikmin, and you're golden!”

Louie's comments

“Slice the serpentine torso into thin medallions, skewer on a metal rod with Hocotate onions, and barbecue over an open flame.”

Olimar's comments

“Burrowing Snagret
Shiropedes anacondii
Snavian family

Visually resembling the burrowing snagret is the burrowing snarrow, the range of which partially overlaps with the snagret's range. While the two may appear similar, when pulled from the ground they can be distinguished by the presence or absence of tail and wing markings.”

Pikmin Nintendo 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.”
“Avoid the snagret's pecking beak by clustering your Pikmin around the back of the bird's neck. Group your Pikmin on top of the snagret as soon as it pokes its beak above the surface. That way, your Pikmin will be able to cling to the bird's upper limits where its beak can't reach.”

Pikmin Nintendo Power Booklet description

“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 2 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 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

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

In Pikmin, they are extremely hard to beat without losing Pikmin if thrown 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.[1] 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 involving the counter.

In Pikmin 3, the health is even lower, and Winged Pikmin can be charged 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 leaders alone.

Burrowing Snarrow

Main article: Burrowing Snarrow.

The Burrowing Snarrow is a creature that is referred to only twice in the Pikmin series, but never seen. The first of these mentions is in the enemy reel at the end of Pikmin, while the second is in Olimar's notes on the Burrowing Snagret in Pikmin 2's 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.

Brawl trophy

The Burrowing Snagret trophy from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Description:

“A member of the snavian family with a birdlike head and a snakelike neck and body. An underground dweller, the snagret makes sudden strikes aboveground to capture surface-dwelling prey. It uses its beak to scoop up daily nutrition and can snatch up three Pikmin at once—a relatively small amount made deadly by its strike speed. No one has ever seen its tail.

Smash 4 trophy

The trophy of Burrowing Snagret from the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. US version US description:

“A foot-long bird doesn't sound all that large, but when you're the size of a Pikmin, a foot is massive! This member of the avian[sic] family will emerge from underground, hunting for Pikmin, its favorite snack. Act fast—or this bird of prey will prey on your poor Pikmin!
Appears in:

European version EU description:

“A strange creature that looks like it's part bird and part snake. At 35cm in length, it's fairly small by our standards, but for the Pikmin, it's a towering monster! Another thing that makes it monstrous is that it sees Pikmin as a nutritious meal. If you're not careful, it'll pop out of the ground and gobble them up before you know it!

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Assist Trophy

The Burrowing Snagret appears in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate 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.[2]

Trivia

  • The Burrowing Snagret can be seen in a pre-release video of Pikmin, where it appears to have a light or white body. This most likely originates from its Japanese name which means "White-tailed snake crow".
  • The Burrowing Snagret aboveground in the Awakening Wood has been reported to sometimes spawn with only 750 health. The cause of this is unknown. [1]
  • In the Super Smash Bros. series, the Burrowing Snagret trophies contain a few mistakes.
    • The 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 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 the first 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. In Pikmin 4, it is fought 5 times, beat out by the Emperor Bulblax at 6.
    • 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 Pikmin 3 Deluxe Side Stories mode once.
  • The enemy reel mistakenly states that its body is lined with feathers.
    • This mistake is not present in the Japanese 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.
  • 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 zoom settings, it is possible to see its small body in-game. The same happens with the Pileated Snagret, Toady Bloyster, and Ranging Bloyster.
  • The Burrowing Snagret lays eggs, as seen in Pikmin 4 where Downy Snagrets can be found inside nectar eggs, and to a lesser extent, the nest on sublevel 5 of the White Flower Garden, and the eggs found there.
