A Chomp Bro. without his Chain Chomp.
Chomp Bros. are large, muscular sub-species of Hammer Bros. wielding a Chain Chomp as a weapon. They are encountered in Bowser's Castle during the events of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. They attack by throwing their Chain Chomps at either Mario or Luigi. The number of times they spin around determines how fast the attack will be. If Mario or Luigi jump on the Chain Chomp when it is thrown, it will fall off the screen, leaving the Chomp Bro. completely defenseless. Sometimes, Chomp Bros. will run away from the battle when they are unaccompanied by a Chain Chomp. At other times, they might actually get the Chain Chomp back, and the entire process starts over again. Also, they are healed by fire, and are weak to thunder.
Chomp Bros. are likely based off of Hammer throw athletes, due to their muscular appearance and how they throw their Chain Chomps, which resemble the balls used in the hammer throw.
