'''Mega Cheep Chomps''', also called '''Big Cheep Chomps''',<ref name=esmarch>{{cite|author=von Esmarch, Nick|date=2012|title=''Paper Mario: Sticker Star PRIMA Official Game Guide''|location=Roseville|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|isbn=978-0-307-89675-9|page=282-283, 285}}</ref> are a large variety of [[Cheep Chomp]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 10]]''.

==History==
===''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''===
A Big Cheep Chomp<ref name=esmarch/> makes its first appearance as an obstacle on the water surface of [[Long Fall Falls]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. They are made of cardboard and have a propeller-like tail. When entering the level, a Big Cheep Chomp emerges from the water and starts chasing Mario throughout the entire river, charging and jumping onto the raft to destroy parts of it. If all parts of the raft are destroyed, Mario receives a [[Game Over]]. At the end of the waterfall, the Big Cheep Chomp propels itself into the sky while Mario continues his descent.

If the level is replayed after collecting the Comet Piece on the left path, the Big Cheep Chomp will become more difficult to evade each time, moving faster and tricking the player.

===''Mario Party 10''===
In ''[[Mario Party 10]]'', a Mega Cheep Chomp is featured as the mid-boss of [[Whimsical Waters]] in story mode. Its minigame, [[Mega Cheep Chomp's Shell Shock]], involves each player launching their three [[Koopa Shell]]s to inflict damage. Mega Cheep Chomp targets the player who last hit it. If a player is caught, Mega Cheep Chomp lunges at them, costing them two points. When Mega Cheep Chomp becomes angry, two or three [[Cheep Cheep]]s swim around Mega Cheep Chomp to help protect it from the shells.

This battle features mechanics quite similar to [[Whomp Stomp]], as in both boss minigames, the players must avoid being attacked by the boss by baiting it into attacking another player.

===''Mario Tennis Fever''===

A Mega Cheep Chomp called [[Lightning Cheep Chomp]] appears as a boss in ''[[Mario Tennis Fever]]''{{'}}s Adventure mode after eating the [[Lightning Racket]] in Limestone Cave. It fights the same way as its smaller counterpart, but also launches [[Cheep Cheep]]s at the player, who must hit them back to the Cheep Chomp.
