A Snake[1] is an enemy in Mario Clash. They are snakes with spikes appearing from their heads. The Snake artwork closely resembles the Prince of Sablé's snake form in Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru, but without a cape.
History
Mario Clash
A Snake in Mario Clash can produce an egg from its mouth, soon causing another Snake to hatch. Throwing a Koopa shell a Snake's sides stuns them and another Koopa shell from any angle finishes them off. A Snake egg can be defeated by either touching it or throwing a shell at it.
Unused appearances
The original Mario Bros. arcade game, which was the inspiration for Mario Clash, had similar squat snake-like entities that were cut during development.[2]
A screenshot in the data of Paper Mario: Sticker Star shows an unused, snake-like enemy that slightly resembles the Snake in Mario Clash.[3]
