| Log | A red, brutal Chain-Chomp. Attack and Defense are high. Rumor has it that it's so angry because someone painted it red while it was sleeping... |

| Tattle | That's a Red Chomp. It's a rabid, red, biting, chewing, chomping fool! Max HP is 6, Attack is 5, and Defense is 3. Its attacks are so powerful, we could be in a world of hurt if we don't beat it fast! ...Which is why it's really, REALLY lame that its Defense is so high. Its HP is pretty low, though, so items and special moves might just work... Just look at that color! Think someone painted it after it fell asleep at a party? |

Red Chomps, as their name implies, are red-colored sub-species of Chain Chomps introduced in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Though in that game they are weaker than their black counterparts, they have the same attack pattern as regular Chomps: they lunge at their opponents in order to bite them. Red Chomps are first seen in the Glitz Pit, during Chapter 3, as members of the Major League team called Chomp Country. Their initial ranking is 2 (n°1 being The Koopinator), but they eventually downgrade to Rank 3 after Mario's victory over Rawk Hawk. Several Red Chomps can also be found in the Pit of 100 Trials, on floors 54 and 59. These enemies are immune to fire attacks, and have a high defense.
A Red Chomp appears in Mario Party 7, in Pyramid Park. For 10 coins, he will let a player use three Dice Blocks and ride on him, moving that many spaces around the board. If the Red Chomp manages to ram another player, a star is stolen from the victim and given to the player riding the Chomp.
Red Chomps' latest appearance was in Super Paper Mario. These enemies are found in Castle Bleck Foyer and inner sanctum. In Chapter 8-2, several Red Chomps are hiding in the basements, waiting for Mario and his allies to fall into one of Mimi's traps. Unlike in the previous Paper Mario game, Red Chomps are actually stronger than regular Chain Chomps.
[edit] Trivia
- In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Goombella suggest that Red Chomps are actually Chain Chomps that were painted red while they were sleeping. However, this is but an unconfirmed rumor.
- In Super Paper Mario, Tippi mentions that it likes pizza sauce. This could be a joke on the fact that the Chain-Chomp's appearance is like Pac-Man, who was based on a pizza. It could also be a joke on its red coloring - the same color as pizza sauce.
- Oddly, in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, the Red Chomps are weaker then regular Chain Chomps, while in Super Paper Mario, the exact opposite is true.
