Spiky Snifits are enemies that appear inMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its remake,Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. They only appear in battle alongsideGritty Goombas andAnuboos inTeehee Valley.

Spiky Snifits are seemingly designed as a cross between aPokey and aSnifit, based on their Japanese name; where Pokeys generally appear segmented, Spiky Snifits are instead depicted as stylized stationarysaguaro cacti wearing Snifit masks. In the remake, their defeat sprite shows they also have a pair of tiny legs under the ground.

Battle[edit]

Spiky Snifits shoot projectiles at the Mario Bros., with two hints as to whom their target is. Prior to attacking, it shifts back and forth; if its right arm becomes visible, the enemy attacksMario, and if it waves its left arm,Luigi is the target. Secondly, the Spiky Snifit's mouth may vibrate before it actually attacks, spitting the object at a low arc directly towards its target; if it fires immediately instead, the spat object bounces harmlessly over the target's head.

The projectile is either a spiked ball or amushroom; the spiked balls have a chance topoison the Bros. if they hit. Conversely, any Mushrooms that "hit" Mario or Luigi in the original game will be added to the inventory; in the remake, they will heal some of the Bros.’ HP.

Spiky Snifits are weak to Mario'sFirebrand, and cannot be jumped on unless Mario or Luigi are wearing one of the "Spiny-Killer Jump"badges. Upon defeat in the original game, they may drop aRed Pepper orSyrup; inMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, the Syrup is replaced with thePokey Flower, a clothing item that increases the damage ofFirst Strikes.
