A Snifaro hanging on its coffin

A Snifaro is a floating Snifit sarcophagus found in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. The four Mario Bros. of past and present encountered these enemies in the Gritzy Caves beneath the Gritzy Desert. In battle, a Snifaro attacks by first opening up its sarcophagus, revealing two Snifits inside, one standing on top of the other. Each Snifit will then fire one bullet at a Mario brother at alternating intervals. If the bottom Snifit fires first, then Mario or Luigi should jump over the first bullet and duck under the second bullet. If the top Snifit fires first, Mario or Luigi should duck first then jump. Occasionally, the top Snifit will jump out of the coffin and ride the sarcophagus like a rocket. The Snifaro will fly high in the air then attempt to crash into a Mario brother. This attack can be dodged by jumping. If a Fire Flower is used against a Snifaro, the sarcophagus will burn up, revealing Shy Guys. These exposed Snifits will attack much faster, making their bullets harder to dodge.
