==Battle==
Flifits attack by spitting [[Sneed]]s at their target; Bowser must counter the attack depending on the angle it fires at. If the Flifit keeps its head still, it spits the Sneed at the ground, and Bowser must duck into its shell so it bounces over his head. If the Flifit tilts its head backwards, the Sneed will fly straight at Bowser, who must counter with a punch; the Sneed will be deflected upward and fall onto Bowser, which he can avoid by ducking in his shell. Using the [[Vacuum Block|inhale ability]] will cause the Flifit to wilt, lowering its defense; after a few turns, a [[Flying Snifit|butterfly-winged Snifit]] will appear to water it and restore it to normal.


In battle, Flifits spit [[Sneed]]s at the character, which Bowser must counter with a punch or by hiding in his shell. If the Flifit keeps its head still, then it will spit a Sneed at the ground, which will then bounce over Bowser. He must counter this by hiding in his shell to prevent the Sneed from damaging him. However, if the Flifit tilts its head backwards, then the Flifit will send a Sneed straight forward, which Bowser must punch, causing the Sneed to bounce up, and he must hide in his shell again. Flifits are weak to fire (obviously, for they are plants), and if Bowser uses the [[Vacuum Block|inhale ability]], it will make the Flifit wilt, leaving it a lot more vulnerable than it was with its petals attached. After a few turns, though, a [[Flying Snifit]] will appear to revive it. There is also a [[Blitty]] which Bowser can get by inhaling.
They use the same attacks when fought by the Mario Bros.; in addition to using the above tells, the Flifit shakes its leaf down if targeting Luigi and up when targeting Mario. The straight shots must be dodged by [[jump]]ing, while the angled bouncing shot must be deflected with the [[Hammer]]. Sneeds that manage to hit the brothers will join the fight, and a Sneed may eventually bloom into another Flifit.


When [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] fight Flifits, the plants attack the same but the attacks need to be dodged differently. When the plant is going to shoot the fast Sneed, Mario and Luigi must jump over it. The Flifit shakes its leaf down for Luigi and up for Mario. When the Flifit shoots it slowly, the brothers must avoid it with the [[Hammer]]. Again, the leaf decides which brother the Flifit is going to attack. If any of the attacks hits one of the Mario brothers, a [[Sneed]] will help the Flifits battle the brothers. Sneeds can also bloom into Flifits implying that Sneeds are seeds or baby versions of Flifits.
Flifits, being plants, are weak to fire attacks, and may drop a [[Hot Drumstick]] or [[Syrup Jar]] upon defeat; in the remake, the Hot Drumstick has a higher chance to drop, and the Syrup is replaced with [[Cheese]].

Flifits are Snifit-like sunflowers that appear in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and its remake, Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey. Their name is a portmanteau of "flower" and "Snifit". Flifits are encountered in Bumpsy Plains by Bowser, and a Blitty can be retrieved from a group of Flifits. Flifits chase after the player in the overworld; in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, they no longer chase Mario and Luigi.

Battle[edit]

Flifits attack by spitting Sneeds at their target; Bowser must counter the attack depending on the angle it fires at. If the Flifit keeps its head still, it spits the Sneed at the ground, and Bowser must duck into its shell so it bounces over his head. If the Flifit tilts its head backwards, the Sneed will fly straight at Bowser, who must counter with a punch; the Sneed will be deflected upward and fall onto Bowser, which he can avoid by ducking in his shell. Using the inhale ability will cause the Flifit to wilt, lowering its defense; after a few turns, a butterfly-winged Snifit will appear to water it and restore it to normal.

They use the same attacks when fought by the Mario Bros.; in addition to using the above tells, the Flifit shakes its leaf down if targeting Luigi and up when targeting Mario. The straight shots must be dodged by jumping, while the angled bouncing shot must be deflected with the Hammer. Sneeds that manage to hit the brothers will join the fight, and a Sneed may eventually bloom into another Flifit.

Flifits, being plants, are weak to fire attacks, and may drop a Hot Drumstick or Syrup Jar upon defeat; in the remake, the Hot Drumstick has a higher chance to drop, and the Syrup is replaced with Cheese.
