Red Chomp

Red Chomps, as their name implies, are red-colored 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, 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 they have a high defense rating.

A red Chomp appears in the souvenir "Reel-to-Reel" from WarioWare: Touched!.

A Red Chomp is featured in the Pyramid Park board of Mario Party 7. It is located on the left side of the board, and its palace is larger and more detailed than the huts that house the regular Chomps. It is also much less accessible than the other Chomps. For 10 coins, it will let a player use three Dice Blocks and ride on it, moving that many spaces around the board, whereas the other Chomps charge 30 coins for the same amount of dice, and offer only 1 Dice Block for the same amount of coins. 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. One of the Underchomp is red and can breathe fire. Otherwise, Red Chomps are found in Castle Bleck Interior and inner sanctum. In Chapter 8-3, several Red Chomps are hiding in the basements. Unlike in the previous Paper Mario game, Red Chomps are actually stronger than regular Chain Chomps.
