A '''Snifaro''' is a [[Snifit]] enemy found in [[Gritzy Caves]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. The name "Snifaro" is a portmanteau of "Snifit" and a corruption of "pharaoh," the name applied to ancient Egyptian rulers who Snifaros are designed after (using the traditional pharaoh mummies' sarcophagus and wearing stereotypical pharaoh headdresses). The headdresses contain a small [[Koopa Troopa]] head on the top. In the field, Snifaros slide over the floor in their sarcophagi, their feet pointed in the direction last moved in; if approached by the Mario Bros., they will charge.
A '''Snifaro''' is a floating [[Snifit]] sarcophagus found in [[Gritzy Caves]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. The name "Snifaro" is a portmanteau of "Snifit" and a corruption of "pharaoh," the name applied to Ancient Egyptian rulers who Snifaros seem to be designed after (using the traditional pharaoh mummies' sarcophagus and wearing stereotypical pharaoh headdresses).
==Battle==
[[File:Snifaro MLPiT sprite.png|thumb|left|]]
Snifaro starts out covered by a floating sarcophagus except for its masked head, and has two main attacks. For the first, it positions itself in front of one of the Mario Bros. and opens up its sarcophagus, revealing that it is standing on top of an ordinary Snifit. The Snifaro and Snifit then fire one bullet at the target, one after the other. If the sarcophagus lid opens to its right (away from the camera), the Snifaro fires first on top; if it opens to its left, the Snifit fires first on bottom. The Snifit can be easily dodged by a [[jump]], and the Snifaro is likely to hit the Mario Bros. if jumped, although it is possible to successfully jump over the top bullet. Their second attack has the Snifaro jump out of the sarcophagus and ride it like a rocket. The Snifaro flies high and then attempts to crash into a Mario Brother. If the Snifaro rides the sarcophagus normally (over the object), it attacks [[Mario]]. If the Snifaro places itself under the sarcophagus, it attacks [[Luigi]]. This attack can be dodged or countered by jumping which if not, it may cause the [[trip]] status effect. After the attack, it will go offscreen and come back in its normal form.


If a [[Bros. Flower]] is first used against a Snifaro, its sarcophagus burns up. The Snifit that was inside the sarcophagus then runs away, leaving the Snifaro to fight on its own. The exposed Snifaro attacks faster and is slightly weaker. Its attack consists of walking up to a Mario Brother and shooting one or two bullets from its mouth; this can be avoided by jumping.
In battle, a Snifaro attacks by first opening up its sarcophagus, revealing two Snifits inside, one standing on top of the other. Each Snifit then fires one bullet at a Mario brother, at alternating intervals. They can be dodged by a [[jump]] depending on the altitude of the bullets. Another attack is when the top Snifit jumps out of the coffin and rides the sarcophagus akin to a rocket. The Snifaro flies high and then attempts to crash into a Mario brother. If the Snifit rides the sarcophagus normally (over the object), it attacks Mario. If the Snifit places itself under the sarcophagus, it attacks Luigi. This attack can be dodged or countered by jumping.  


==Statistics==
If a [[Fire Flower]] is used against a Snifaro, the sarcophagus burns up, revealing two Snifits, one of which runs away, leaving the top Snifit (still labeled as "Snifaro") to fight on its own. This exposed Snifit attacks faster.
