Chain Chomplet

A Chain Chomplet is a relative of the Chain Chomp that has only appeared in Super Mario Sunshine. It has a personality like their main species, but they look different. They make a noise that sounds like a young dog barking. They appear to be young Chomps, made up of two spherical sections with a collar dividing each part. The only known Chomplets live in Pianta Village on Isle Delfino; a female red Pianta called the Chomp Keeper owns them. They leave a trail of lava goo when they are mad.

Chain Chomplets are in the first episode of Pianta Village, "Chain Chomplets Unchained". In the episode, Mario has to calm down the fevered Chain Chomplets. To complete the episode the Chain Chomplets must be cooled off with F.L.U.D.D. Once this is done, their tails can be grabbed. Releasing the tail slingshots the Chain Chomplet, hopefully into the river where they will cool off completely.

Trivia

 * In Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour, Chain Chomplet's name can be seen in the scorechart. However, it only says "Chomplet" rather than "Chain Chomplet."
 * The sound that the Chain Chomplets make when they bark is similar to the sounds that Chomp Pups make.
