'''Snoodles''' are a type of enemy in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They look like a regular plant with a thick green stem and a blue head at first sight. However, when [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] approaches one of them, they will reveal two eyes. Their only method of attack includes trying to block the brothers from advancing by leaning towards a set location. These enemies can easily be defeated with a [[Green Shell]] or even by the light shone by the shell itself. Also the player can shoot two [[Star Bit]]s at it or even just [[Spin]] into it to defeat it. They first appear in the [[Cosmic Cove Galaxy]], and later reappear in the [[Slimy Spring Galaxy]].

Snoodles' only method of attack includes trying to block the brothers from advancing by leaning towards a set location.

They first appear in the Cosmic Cove Galaxy, and they later reappear in the Slimy Spring Galaxy.
