"Snake" (蛇（へび） Hebi) or "Snake monster" (蛇（へび）モンスター Hebi Monsutā) is a group of Monster Cards used by Seika Kohinata in the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX manga. They are based on venomous snakes or serpents from various mythologies.

It is unclear how Snake monsters are identified in the manga; no Snake monster has "蛇（へび）" (Hebi) in their name, and they are shown to be Reptile with the effect of "Viper's Grudge", making "Snake" neither an archetype nor a Type. It is possible that "Snake monster" simply refers to a group of monsters based on snakes, without any in-game relation, considering the manga series use lores that greatly differ from OCG lores, and often use non-gaming terms in card lores. In the international release, the term "Snake monster" is removed and replaced by the term Reptile monster, possibly to avoid confusion.
