Chain Chomp: Difference between revisions

|lastappearance = ''{{s|zeldawiki|Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda}}'' (2021, as BowWow)

Chain Chomps are often seen  bound to a wooden pole by a metal chain, which means the player is safe if kept outside a certain radius. If possible, destroying the pole releases them, where the wildly bounce around the area, destroying everything in their path. This is sometimes necessary for progression, such as the Chain Chomp crashing through a wall and revealing a secret area. Chain Chomps are usually fought as enemies and hazards throughout the ''Mario'' franchise. They are also occasionally used as items, like in ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart: Double Dash}}'' and several ''Mario'' sports games.

;Chain Chomp

:''A black, spherical character thought to be made of some metal, such as iron. Although usually tethered down with a chain, Chain Chomps will eagerly chomp at passersby, inflicting major damage. In Super Mario 64, a Chain Chomp appears in the first level. It cannot be defeated, but you can daze it temporarily by throwing bombs at it.''

{{Flag|ntsc}} ''This beast frequently appears in the Super Mario series, and it is definitely equal parts bark and bite. No surprise it's often chained to something. In Smash Bros., it's connected to a stump in the ground and will lash out at anyone who gets close. Don't even bother trying to teach it manners.''

 

{{Flag|pal}} ''An iron ball with a face, complete with shiny white teeth, that shows up fairly often in the Mario series. They're impossible to tame, so they're almost always chained to a post, and this game's no exception. Seriously, don't go anywhere near them unless you want to end up a Chomp's dinner.''

Chain Chomp appears as a hostile Assist Trophy in both spirits' battles.

 

Chain Chomp uses a [[Metal]] {{SSBU|Pac-Man}} puppet fighter and is fought on the {{SSBB|Yoshi's Island}} stage's [[Battlefield form]]. During the battle, the Metal Pac-Man favoring [[Power Pellet]] transforms him into his classic form, which resembles the Chain Chomp's shape.

During the Goo-Goo Buggy spirit battle, the Chain Chomp Assist Trophy is fought along with the {{SSBU|Mario}} and {{SSBU|Luigi}} puppet fighters on the [[Figure-8 Circuit]] stage. During the battle, the puppet fighters' move speed will increase, referencing the Goo-Goo Buggy's high acceleration stats.
