Chain Chomplets Unchained

Chain Chomplets Unchained is the first episode of Pianta Village in Super Mario Sunshine. The episode's objective is to cool down the flaming Chain Chomplets.

Layout
In this episode, three Chain Chomplets are running around the village. The Chain Chomplets have come down with a fever, according to their owner, and must be cooled off to return them to normal. As the Chain Chomplets move about the village, they leave a trail of lava behind them; they will also only move along the paths in the village, only leaving them to attack Mario.

When Mario sprays them, they will attempt to charge him, but spraying the Chomplets entirely will cool them down for a short period of time. During this time period, the Chomplets will try to flee. The player has to grab their tails and pull back, releasing them will launch them in the direction they're facing and they will be stunned for a small time. Once they recover, or after enough time has passed after spraying them, the Chomplets will return to being on fire. The player has to angle the Chomplets and launch them into the pool underneath the large tree in the center. Getting all three into the water will return them to normal and reward the player with a Shine Sprite.

Trivia
When all three Chain Chomplets have been dunked into the spring, F.L.U.D.D. says "Remember, always be kind to your pets!" Despite this, the situation was not caused by a lack of kindness to them, but rather by them falling ill.
