Flying SnifitSprite of a Flying Snifit from Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey

A Snifferling is a non-damagable enemy in the Nintendo DS game Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and its 3DS remake. They are blue Snifits with a pair of butterfly wings, and can only be seen in Bumpsy Plains. They aid Flifits if they've been wilted by Bowser's Vacuum by watering them, thus restoring their normal strength in the process. Mario and Luigi never see these enemies due to not having the ability to wilt Flifits.

Due to being a type of Shy Guy with wings working as a gardener, they are comparable to Shy Away from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.
