The '''Burrowing Snagret''' is an enemy in the [[Pikmin games]] and the [[:category:bosses|boss]] of [[White Flower Garden]] in [[Pikmin 2]]. It appears to be a combination of a bird and a snake, and a member of the Snavian family (Snavian being a combination of the words ''snake'' and ''avian'', avian meaning "bird-related"). They remain underground for the majority of the time, surfacing only when approached by [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or a [[Captain]]. Every few times it emerges, the beast gets stuck with only its head above ground for a while, giving a captain an opportunity to attack without fear of losing any Pikmin. When above ground, it attempts to eat Pikmin one by one | The '''Burrowing Snagret''' is an enemy in the [[Pikmin games]] and the [[:category:bosses|boss]] of [[White Flower Garden]] in [[Pikmin 2]].

Once the snagret is sufficiently damaged, it burrows back underground. | ||
When killed in [[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin 1]], Burrowing Snagrets explode into many [[pellet]]s; in Pikmin 2, a dead Burrowing Snagret leaves behind its head to be returned to an [[Onion]] or the [[Research Pod]]. | When killed in [[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin 1]], Burrowing Snagrets explode into many [[pellet]]s; in Pikmin 2, a dead Burrowing Snagret leaves behind its head to be returned to an [[Onion]] or the [[Research Pod]]. | ||

In Pikmin 1, they are extremely hard to beat without losing Pikmin if thrown at the head, as they have very high health and are larger than in the second game. 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 he 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]]. | In Pikmin 1, they are extremely hard to beat without losing Pikmin if thrown at the head, as they have very high health and are larger than in the second game.
