The Hissi (from hiss, onomatopoeia for the noise a snake makes) is a snake-like Limited Edition Neopet released on 4 May 2005. It has wings, like the Aztec serpent god Quetzalcoatl. They have acute vision and a keen sense of smell which makes them extremely good at games of hide and seek.

A limited number are available for creation every Hissi Day. An existing Neopet can be turned into a Hissi by a Transmogrification Potion, Morphing Potion or by certain zaps the Lab Ray. The Ice history is reminiscent of the Snowager. In the Neopets Trading Card Game, they are associated with the element of darkness.

Battledome

In the Battledome, Hissis have no natural resistances, but do have three species abilities:

Hissi Wing Blast - Attack: 2 x Dark; Defence: none; available at level 3;
Hissi Strike - Attack: 2 x Earth; Defence: none; available at level 12;
Hissi Squeeze - Attack: 2 - 3 x Light, 2 - 3 x Physical; Defence: none; available at level 20

There are also nine pieces of equipment that can only be used by a Hissi.

-Users had been wanting a snake-like Neopet for a long time, and were happy to see the Hissi created. It is generally considered to be a fairly good pet, with nice artwork for the standard colours. Since most of the Neopets are made to look "cute," there is a large group of players who celebrate every time Neopets releases a non-cuddly pet.
