'''Spiky Snifits''' are enemies that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. They only appear in battle alongside [[Gritty Goomba]]s and [[Anuboo]]s in [[Teehee Valley]].

Spiky Snifits are seemingly designed as a cross between a [[Pokey]] and a [[Snifit]], based on their Japanese name; where Pokeys generally appear segmented, Spiky Snifits are instead depicted as stylized stationary {{wp|saguaro}} cacti wearing Snifit masks. In the remake, their defeat sprite shows they also have a pair of tiny legs under the ground. 

==Battle==

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 attacks [[Mario]], 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 a [[mushroom]]; the spiked balls have a chance to [[poison (status effect)|poison]] 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's [[Firebrand]], and cannot be jumped on unless Mario or Luigi are wearing one of the "Spiny-Killer Jump" [[badge]]s. Upon defeat in the original game, they may drop a [[Red Pepper]] or [[Syrup Jar|Syrup]]; in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', the Syrup is replaced with the [[Pokey Flower]], a clothing item that increases the damage of [[First Strike]]s.
