Snaptors[1] are enemies that appear in Mario & Luigi: Brothership. They are red birds that have plier-like beaks, yellow slit eyes, and coil necks. In addition to their role as common enemies, Snaptors are also used as transport by Ten and Shun; Ecks does not ride them due to his natural flight abilities.[2] The Snaptor's name is a portmanteau of "snap" and "raptor". Mario and Luigi encounter them commonly on Merrygo Island and Desolatt Island. They have a bigger variant called Mega Snaptor, which serves as a boss on Lottacoins Island, and there are also variants infused with Glohm.
Battle
Snaptors have two different ways of attacking. Their first attack is by stretching their necks at Mario or Luigi to peck at them, which can be countered with a hammer. If the Snaptor cackles a bit before this attack, they will hit the brother they were not aiming for.[1] Their second attack involves them flying across the screen before snatching one of the brothers and throwing him towards the other. If the captured brother cries out before the Snaptor returns, the remaining brother must carefully jump over them to avoid damaging them with a stomp, or being damaged by the thrown brother. Otherwise, the remaining brother must stomp the Snaptor as it dives, to prevent both brothers from taking damage.[3]
