As I recall the story, the tempter was only ever identified as the Serpent. They were even cursed to always go on their belly afterwards, which I don’t recall Satan doing.
Depending on your mythology, Satan might have instigated that; but I don’t think it was ever established in the story

Yeah, but the serpent WAS satan in disguise.
So God cursed Satan to crawl on his belly forever and Satan is like LOL I’ll transform to a different shape? Seems like a weak God.
That’s a common interpretation but it’s not actually confirmed anywhere in the bible that the serpent was Satan
