Also I used “buckball unicorn” because that’s what was being used in the credits. Yeah. I’m not too creative. :V
EDIT: I actually did the video for this before the GIF. Didn’t provide it initially because I don’t think it’s great at all. Wasted opportunity really. Ah well. Might as well provide it anyways: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFV_G6OnBR8
Keep in mind that Snips and he are in Cheerilee’s class. Back in season 1, Sweetie Belle couldn’t do jack in magic, but Snails could light his horn and keep the light going.

I’ve always taken it that all unicorns are easily taught the basic cantrips - levitation and light, for the most part - but more complex magic beyond their cutie mark talent (like Rarity’s gem dousing) requires special training, which is why Celestia’s school exists, for unicorns that appear to have a handle on many different types of magic.
Celestia’s School isn’t the only magic school, I’m sure, it’s just the best.
I have a hard time picturing Snails at Celestia’s School for Gifted Unicorns. If he’s been in magic training, it must’ve been a very unorthodox school.

Everything sounds dumb if you put “bucket” in it
It HAS been five years. Maybe he’s been training?
Snap that would’ve been good. :o
