'''Snailicorns'''<ref>Loe, Casey. ''New Super Mario Bros.'' Official Nintendo Player's Guide. Page 12.</ref> are large snail-like creatures that sport a single horn on their heads, as indicated by the species name (a portmanteau of ''snail'' and ''unicorn''), as well as feet. | |||

They appear only in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' and are never seen outside of ice stages. Snailicorns are resistant enemies, as [[jump]]s are not enough to defeat them, and [[fireball]]s are ineffective. However, as jumping on them pushes them back, this tactic can be used to send them off of cliffs, though they will reappear if [[Mario]] leaves the area and comes back. Also, a full-speed [[Shell Mario]] or a stray [[shell]] will knock them out. | |||
Snailicorns always charge in a straight line, but change direction at edges. They only appear in [[World 5-3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 5-3]] and [[World 5-B (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 5-B]]. | |||

| | ==Trivia== | ||
*The game's internal filename for Snailicorn is a romanization of the Japanese name for [[Bully]], suggesting that it was originally designed as one before being changed to a horned snail.<ref name=internal/> | |||
