'''Mecha-Chomps''' are [[Chain Chomp]]-like enemies that only appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. They are found at [[Woohoo Hooniversity]], where they only appear during battles with [[Laser Snifit]]s in the basement. Mecha-Chomps have a grey canine-like body, a retractable neck, a large LED display presumably used as an eye, and wheels for moving around. They appear to be based on real-life toy {{wp|List of robotic dogs|robotic dogs}}, such as {{wp|Tekno the Robotic Puppy}}.


'''Mecha-Chomps''' are [[Chain Chomp]]-like enemies found at [[Woohoo Hooniversity]] exclusively in the original Game Boy Advance version of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. They have grey, dog-like bodies and move around on wheels. They never appear on the field, instead showing up in battle alongside [[Laser Snifit]]s. When attacking, the LED on its head cycles between red and green, eventually stopping on one of the two. The Mecha-Chomp then throws its head at the appropriate target: Mario if it is red, Luigi if it is green.
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', they are replaced by [[Mechakoopa]]s.


If a Mecha-Chomp is damaged, it starts to malfunction, meaning that the colors it displays will be for the opposite targets: red for Luigi, and green for Mario. Additionally, the item it drops changes while malfunctioning.
==Battle==
The Mecha-Chomp wheels itself towards the Bros., then stops as the LED on its head cycles between red and green, eventually stopping on one of the two. The Mecha-Chomp then throws its head at the appropriate target: [[Mario]] if it is red, [[Luigi]] if it is green. Sometimes, if a Mecha-Chomp is damaged, it starts to malfunction, meaning that the colors it displays will be for the opposite targets (red for Luigi, green for Mario); using [[Thunderhand]] will always cause it to malfunction. Additionally, the item it drops while malfunctioning changes from a [[Nut]] to the [[List of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga gear#School Emblem|School Emblem]] [[Badge]]; this makes the badge [[Missable content|missable]] if Mario or Luigi's attack power gets high enough.


In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', they are replaced by [[Mechakoopa]]s.
