Variant ofKoopa Troopa

Snortoises[1] arepig-nosed turtle-like enemies inSuper Mario Bros. Wonder. They have orange skin and a long snout. Their navy blue shell resembles that of aKoopa Troopa, though it is flatter, its head and arm holes are combined into one, and the lines between each scute are a lighter blue instead of black. They function as variants of Red Koopa Troopas, moving back and forth, turning on ledges, walls, and the edge ofDownpour Cloud waterfalls, and hiding into their shell when stomped. When outside ofwater, they simply crawl back and forth on the ground, but they will swim at a constant elevation when underwater.

They first appear inRobbird Cove and later return inDownpour Uproar. Their shells can be used in both courses to breakBrick Blocks underwater and swim throughcurrents, granting access to various10-flower coins.
