The '''Burrowing Snagret''' ({{ja|ヘビガラス|Hebi Garasu}}, ''Snake Crow'') is an enemy from the {{uv|Pikmin}} series.

The Burrowing Snagret first appeared in the original ''Pikmin'', serving as the basis for its trophy in ''Brawl''. Its later design in ''Pikmin 3'' serves as the basis for its appearances in both ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate''. Within the ''Pikmin'' games, the Burrowing Snagret is a strong enemy and occasional boss that attacks by ambushing prey from underground and pecking at anything within reach. Though there are [[pikipedia:Pileated Snagret|related species]] that fully emerge from the ground to chase their prey, the Burrowing Snagret chooses to remain at least partially buried at all times. In ''Pikmin 3'', it not only pecks at both the [[Alph|leaders]] and their [[Pikmin]], but can also pin them down and regurgitate them as a form of attack.

The Burrowing Snagret makes its Smash debut in ''Brawl'' as a randomly-acquired trophy.

''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.''

:{{flag|ntsc}} ''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 family will emerge from underground, hunting for Pikmin, its favorite snack. Act fast—or this bird of prey will prey on your poor Pikmin!''

:{{flag|pal}} ''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 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!''

After appearing, the Burrowing Snagret waits a short while and then starts wildly pecking in front of itself. It then burrows into the ground and reappears in a random spot (including on [[platform]]s), repeating this routine several times before disappearing. Although it cannot be grabbed and has flinch resistance, it can be stunned and left open for punishment, and is one of the many Assist Trophies that can be KO'd. [[Training Mode]] describes its Assist Trophy: ''Pecks at opponents with its beak.'' It cannot appear on [[Brinstar Depths]], [[Mute City SNES]], [[Pilotwings]], [[Pokémon Stadium]], [[Spirit Train]], and [[Venom]].
