**Snake** is a minor character in Twitch Dates Pokémon. He is the Sports Correspondent for the School Newspaper, although his whereabouts and actions seem much larger then what that suggests.

He is a major character in Abby's route.

## Appearance

Similar to Air, Snake's status as one of, if not the largest student at the Academy makes it difficult for him to wear clothing. He only wears the second-year tie for his uniform, and enjoys wearing a black headband or even an eyepatch when he feels like it.

## Personality

Snake is a stoic Steelix, rarely expressing emotion and only speaks whenever he feels it is necessary, using as few words as possible. He is not one to sugar coat and play around, being direct, concise, and decisive with what he has to say to people.

## Relationships

Despite what appearances may seem, Snake is actually one of the most networked students at the Academy.

As fellow members of the Newspaper Club, Snake is friends with Digrat, Dux, and Abby. In particular, him and Abby seem to talk about a lot of private matters, signifying a deeper friendship between them.

Snake is friends with Brian after a circumstantial meeting together, and are seen having a conversation with each other on the first day of Week 2. As the Sports Corespondent and a former athlete himself, Snake is also friends with Air and Fonz. He shows concern for Gator's well being, which Gator does not seem to appreciate.

Snake also shows an admiration towards Lt. Surge.

## History

Snake shares his History class with Burrito. He formally introduces himself to Burrito on their third day at lunch, where he compliments Air's Ultraball skills.

Snake was a former member of the Sports Club, despite showing heavy talent thanks to his speed and tunneling skills. His official reason was to simply focus on his other studies, but Abby seems to know otherwise. He comes from a military focused family, which is why he enjoys History Class with Lt. Surge who comes from the same background.

## Origins

*For more information, refer to Snake's page on Helixpedia*

Snake was an Onix caught at Victory Road during the Twitch Plays Pokémon Crystal playthrough. His reasons for joining the party were varied, with one popular depiction being that he was tired of being a loner and wanted to tag along with the party in order to make some friends. He evolved to Steelix using a Rare Candy during democracy, which was possible thanks to the playthrough being done using a hacked ROM that allowed traded Pokémon to evolve through basic level ups.

Snake proved pivotal to the end of the run, becoming the primary tank for the party on the trail up Mt. Silver in order to face Helix. His solid defenses as well as being given leftovers to heal allowed him to deal with wild Pokémon on the way up, and his survival was pivotal as he was the best matchup against Zapdos, who otherwise was capable of sweeping the party including the otherwise carry Lazorgator.

Due to being a snake Pokémon and evolving into a Steel-type similar to a Metal Gear, Snake is named, designed, and personified after Solid Snake, the main character of the Metal Gear series.
