Catch a Tsuchinoko (mythical serpent)

How to unlock the Believe It or Not achievement in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater - Definitive Guide

Tsuchinoko is a very rare snake that can be found in the Graniny Gorki: South location. One way to catch this snake is with mousetraps. Stock up on as many of them as possible. As soon as you get to this location, look for a large tree in its central part. Place all your mousetraps at the base of the tree. Then leave the location and return back to it. There will be prey in the mousetraps. If there are no snakes among the animals, collect mousetraps and repeat the process until you get a trophy.

There is more to add to this tip. To get the Only Skin Deep trophy you need to hold Tsuchinoko until the end of the game to get the last trophy. How to get it is described above, but I have one more important note.

IF YOU DO NOT CAPTURE "Tsuchinoko" BEFORE YOU ARE CAPTURED, SHE WILL NOT CRAwl AT THE WATERFALL, SHE WILL NOT BE IN THIS LOCATION AT ALL, AND YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A TROPHY!

I hope my tip will be useful to you, for example, I didn’t know about this at first, so I have to go through the game one more time.

PS But I don’t regret it, because the game is very interesting, it’s just a MUST HAVE!

PPS I didn’t replace user item112z ’s hint, so let’s assume I just described it in more detail!

Moreover, if you didn't catch this snake before the torture chamber. then she will not appear in the location with a waterfall.

I got it after the scene behind the waterfall with Eve. In the location after Sorrow. I really caught him in Graniny Gorki. We simply return to the previous location. They crawl there without hiding. We put a mousetrap next to him and wait until he gets caught. Save until the end of the game to get a camouflage for the trophy.

Catching Tsuchinoko in the location of the battle with Fir is more expensive and painfully troublesome. I recommend an earlier and simpler location - Bolshya Past South - in the north of the location, where there are two guards, on a hill on which the second guard walks (the first one is smoking bamboo at the pillar), we put 1-2 mousetraps, and run around the location. In a minute or two or three a characteristic sound will sound and Tsuchinoko will be caught.

In this location, it makes sense to hunt for Tsuchinoko after the battle with Fir. To get a 100% snake, kill ALL animals in this location, including: rabbits, snakes on the ground and especially in the trees, frogs and birds (as a result, the sonar should show a clear field throughout the entire territory). After that, place several traps (two were enough for me) in front of the entrance to the warehouse (Ponizovje Warehouse), climb a tree and wait (everything reset when leaving the location). Within 5 minutes our invisible snake will be caught.

By keeping the snake until the end of the game, you will receive the Infinity face paint, which provides infinite ammo for any weapon.

It should be noted that after Snake goes to prison, according to the plot, all his equipment will be taken away from him, including the previously caught snake Tsuchinoko. Therefore, to get platinum, you definitely need to catch her again in the location with the cave behind the waterfall, after the story cutscene with Eve in the cave. The capture scheme is the same as before: we set mousetraps, go into the cave, come back and check them for the presence of this snake. Moreover, I didn’t catch this snake with mousetraps at all; it just crawled by itself near the stream not far from the entrance to the cave. So, be careful when passing this location and you may not have to worry about mousetraps.

To easily catch Tsuchinoko, go to Sokroenno: West and at the entrance to Sokroenno: South, place 2 mousetraps. We go to the South, immediately return to the West and our snake lies in one of the containers.

If you are trying to get the Markhor trophy, I advise you to find Tsuchinoko in Tikhogorny near the waterfall after returning the equipment.
