'''Snails''', also known as the "Greatest Artistic Genius of the Generation"<ref name = "ACCOUNT">{{CAR|COYE|Accountibilibuddies}}</ref> is the bumbling, but good-natured punching bag of [[Canterlot High School]]. Although a former lackie of [[Sunset Shimmer]], Snails is not a bad kid, merely weak-willed. He's best friends with {{EQG|Snips}}, sharing an almost brotherly-bond with him as the two do virtually everything with one another, even riding [[Ferris Wheels]]. A musical soul, Snails is an aspiring rapper and proud member of the [[Hip-Hop Club]]. Despite the harm he's done, he's good friends with {{EQG|Pinkie Pie}}, the [[Canterlot Movie Club]] and {{EQG|Big McIntosh}}.

He seems to be more intelligent than his pony counterpart as well, applying more critical thought to his day-to-day life, but at the same time doesn't appear to be as self-aware either and doesn't seem to ever truly question his place in the world as his original did.

===Etymology===

Snails' name is derived from the nursery rhyme, ''[[wikipedia:What Are Little Boys Made Of?|What Are Little Boys Made Of?]]'' In particular, his name is derived from the lyric, ''Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails, that's what little boys are made of!''. Furthermore, his name may be further a reference to ''The Powerpuff Girls'', a show [[Lauren Faust]] worked on before ''Friendship is Magic'', as the opening of that show opened with a slightly modified version of the rhymes second, and more iconic, verse, ''Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice, That's What Little Girls are Made Of''.
