Snartle is a Rank S Brave Yo-kai with Ice attribute.
Official Description
This Yo-kai visits homes asking "Any brats here?" He uses his knives to scare children. He is revered as a popular figure, so much as so that people dress up as him to scare children into being good.
Yo-kai Watch 1 Game Information
This is another Yo-kai who can be recruited very early on in the game and can hold his own during the post game. By running the red light 5 times, he will appear and try to punish you. He may not be so easy to bring down at first, but once you have Yo-kai at level 25+ you should be able to bring him down without too much trouble. His STR stat is very good, and the rest of his stats are quite balanced. You might want him to be a little quicker though, so I recommend training him with the Twisted or Cruel attitude. His skill also offsets his need to have a lot of attack power, because it raises his strength with each enemy he defeats. This is another Yokai who makes best use of the Vampiric Fangs.
- Recommended- Main-game and Post-game
How to Recruit/Befriend
- Once your yo-kai team is strong enough, you'll want to cross the street at crosswalks without pressing the button on purpose so Snartle will appear and fight you. Throw him his favorite food and it's business as usual to befriend him. You can also go to the Tranquility Apartments at Shopper's Row and befriend him like any other Yo-Kai. I prefer you use Marbled Beef.

Toiletta

to produce him as so.
Anime
Snartle appears in EP063 when he is seen terrorizing a crosswalk looking for any brats. He is arrested and eventually released, not without being depressed. Then, Nate approaches him and expresses relief on his release. At Nate's house, he reveals he traveled from the countryside to teach city kids to behave well as well. After deliberating about how to give Snartle an occupation without causing terror, Nate summons Toiletta. The girl Yo-kai decides to give Snartle a makeover, complete with a new phrase, and christen him as NAMAHAGE. Afterwards, Toiletta uses the media to spread Snartle's new image, with an astonishing grade of success: being the personality with the best look in jeans; with the year's catchprase, and even being the star of a movie. At their offices, Snartle thanks Nate for introducing him to Toiletta; however, upon being asked that he left his role of scaring children, Snartle breaks in tears and begs Toiletta to produce him into an image of fear. However, not even a second later, Namahage is arrested by tax evasion.
Trivia
Origin
Snartle is based on the Namahage (also his Japanese name), a bogeyman from the Iga peninsula. During New Year's, unmarried men of Iga dress up with oni masks and straw coats, and go around scaring girls and children brandishing a large kitchen knife and a wooden bucket, while chanting "Any crybabies in here? Are there any naughty brats?" The creature's name derives from namomi, the heat blisters one gets from sitting by a fire for too long, and hageru, "peeling off". The kitchen knife signifies the threat they'll peel the namomi off of any lazy bum who spends all winter in front of the fireplace doing nothing.
