First appearance Super Mario Bros. Wonder (2023)
Variant of Koopa Troopa

Snortoises[1] are sea turtle enemies with softshell turtle snouts that appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. When on land, they crawl forward, though if encountered underwater, they will swim instead. Like Koopa Troopas, they hide in their shells when jumped on, which can be carried and thrown or kicked. Their name is a combination of "snort" (referring to the pig-like noses they have) and "tortoise"
