A Snake[1] is an enemy from the Virtual Boy title Mario Clash. They resemble normal snakes except with spikes protruding from their heads. The Snake routinely multiplies by producing an egg from its mouth, which will soon hatch into another Snake. Snakes can be defeated by having a Koopa shell thrown at their sides to stun them and again from any angle to finish them off. Their eggs can be defeated by touching them or throwing a shell at them.

TriviaEdit
- The original Mario Bros. arcade game, which was the inspiration for Mario Clash, had similar squat snake-like entities that were cut during development.[3]
- The Snake artwork closely resembles the Prince of Sablé's snake form in Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru, but without a cape. This is more noticeable in his role as an Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
- A screenshot found in the data of Paper Mario: Sticker Star shows an unused, snake-like enemy that bears a slight resemblance to the Snake found in Mario Clash.[4]
