This Snaky Family page is about the Nintendo DS release. For the Super Famicom release, see Shiren 1 SFC:Snaky Family.

The Snaky (Japanese: ハブーン, Habūn Kei) Monster Family in  Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer consists of:

1. Snaky (Japanese: ハブーン, Habūn)
2. Vipy (Japanese: マムーン, Mamūn)
3. Pythy (Japanese: ニシキーン, Nishikīn)
4. Anacondy (Japanese: アナコーン, Anakōn)

Snaky Family Monsters are muscular humans, though with three-clawed hands. They have the head of a white-eyed cobra and the large hood and body of which runs down the monsters back to its feet. This snake attribute is notable in the English names of the monster family: Snaky-snake, Vipy-viper, Pythy-python, and Anacondy-anaconda. Additionally, it is fitting that the level 1 monster is named after the smallest of these snakes, and the level 4 monster is named after the biggest, anaconda.

The color of the cobra atop the monster depends on its level:

• 1 - Lime green
• 2 - Violet
• 3 - Grey
• 4 - Magma Orange

There is also a vein-like pattern on this snake, which remains peach-colored on all four levels.

When attacking, Snaky Family Monsters jump up into the air, snake mouth open with teeth bared, and three-clawed hands flexed, and bite down on their target before leaping backward into their initial position.

Combat Strategy

When first encountering Snaky monsters at the Mountain Stream in on floors 3 - 4 of Table Mountain, there is a large jump in power from the previously encountered Mamel, Mini Robber and Chintala.

Though they do not possess any special abilities, Snaky family Monsters are physically strong, particularly at levels 3 - 4. A strong Weapon and Shield is all that is recommended for combat with these monsters.

It may be a possible option to reduce the Strength or attack of Snaky monsters using Leech Worm Family Monster Meat or with a Poison Dart Trap as a Trap Master.

As they are very strong at higher levels, it is not recommended to use Snaky Family Meat to transform other monsters into a more easily defeated form. However it may be an option to do this for monsters to neutralize their dangerous abilities - one more melee attacker is easier to handle than an Ark Dragon dealing 50 fixed damage each turn.

Meat Strategy

Consuming Snaky Monster Meat does not provide any special abilities.

There are some benefits to consuming any monster meat in general:

• Eating any Monster Meat will increase fullness by 10 points.
• As a monster, items in Shiren's inventory cannot be accessed and therefore items cannot be: equipped, unequipped, put down, thrown, eaten, dropped, Projectiles, inserted or removed from Jars and jars also cannot be pressed.
• However, Items and Gitan can still be stolen by Thief-type monsters, items can still be Fusion, become Cursed, be turned into Big Riceball, become Miscellaneous Items, be changed into Weeds or be knocked away.
• As a monster, items in Shiren's inventory cannot be accessed and therefore items cannot be: equipped, unequipped, put down, thrown, eaten, dropped, fired, inserted or removed from jars and jars also cannot be pressed.
• When transforming into or reverting from a monster back to Shiren, most statuses can be cured, however some states prevent using actions and therefore cannot be conventionality cure in this way.
