"Golly! You're that famous Mario guy! If I beat you they'll make me Snifit 4-8! If I'm lucky!"

Apprentices (also known as Snifit Cadets) are blue Spookums that are Snifits in training and reside in Booster Pass. They are encountered in an area in Booster Pass which could be opened by hitting a switch in Booster Tower. They are training on an obstacle course. If Mario runs into one, he will battle him. At the end of the obstacle course, Mario can get a few items. In battle, they were adept at using thunder attacks. Apprentices are quite weak in battle, and were no match for Mario.
