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 in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. They attack by throwing their Chain Chomps at either Mario or Luigi. When battling a Chomp Bro., pay attention to whether it spins clockwise or counterclockwise before throwing its Chain Chomp. In the former case, the Chomp Bro. is targeting Mario; in the latter case, it is targeting 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. 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 restarts. Also, they are healed by fire and are weak to thunder.

Chomp Bros. are likely based on hammer throw athletes, due to their muscular appearance and how they throw their Chain Chomps, which resemble the balls used in the hammer throw.
