After Tutankoopa is defeated, he beckons Chompy to come over to him, though it chases him out of Dry Dry Ruins. Chompy, along with two other Chomps, finally catch Tutankoopa at the ending parade of the game. It is unknown if Chompy is really his name or if it is simply a nickname given to it by Tutankoopa.
