Cheep Chomps (also spelt as Cheep-Chomps) are enemies that commonly appear in the New Super Mario Bros. series that appear only in aquatic levels. They look like Boss Basses, and much like them, they attempt to eat Mario. They relentlessly chase after Mario whenever they see him and won't stop until they've swallowed him. A Cheep Chomp is not indefeatable however as they can be defeated with the use of a Fire Flower or Starman.
Cheep Chomps make their debut in this game, and only in one level, World 3-1. Unlike a standard Cheep-Cheep, Cheep Chomps have a purple and green design to distinguish them from the less harmful Mega Cheep-Cheep. Cheep Chomps still somewhat act like their original counterparts, trying to eat Mario or Luigi. Only three are found throughout the level, the use of a Fire Flower or a Starman can easily defeat a Cheep Chomp.

Cheep Chomps reappear in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. In this game, Cheep Chomps retain their behaviour from the last game are slightly larger than in the previous game. They are only found in secret areas of two levels, World 4-4 and World 9-2. Once again, the Fire Flower or the Starman can defeat them (the use of the Ice Flower is ineffective). Upon defeat, a Cheep Chomp will drop 3 1-Up Mushrooms.

A giant cardboard Cheep Chomp appears as a major enemy in Paper Mario: Sticker Star in the level Long Fall Falls. It is seen relentlessly chasing Mario on his raft down the river. It will make attempts to charge at his raft, dive bomb onto it, and make leaps out of the water. Sometimes, it makes periodic propellor recharges which buys Mario some more time. If the Cheep Chomp charges directly at Mario or lands directly on top of him, it will eat Mario resulting in an instant Game Over. If it destroys all 5 logs of Mario's raft, this will also result in a Game Over. Once Mario reaches the end of the waterfall, he narrowly escapes the Cheep Chomp's grasp and descends down the fall while the Cheep Chomp uses its propellor to fly all the way to space. The chase can be redone as many times as you wish. If you return to the level after collecting the Comet Piece that unlocks Chomp Ruins, the Cheep Chomp will be much more aggressive and as a result, it is harder to escape the Cheep Chomp in one piece so this is why it's recommended you get the other Comet Piece (along with the Secret Door and the Big Shiny Infinijump) first.
Several Cheep Chomps appear in the minigame Cheep Diamonds in Mario Party: Island Tour. In the minigame, you must pick the Cheep Cheep holding the most Jewels to win. The Cheep Chomps shuffle with each turn so players will have to remember which one is the correct one.
Mario Party 10
A Mega Cheep Chomp appears as a boss in Mario Party 10, where he is the sub-boss of the board Whimsical Waters, and his minigame is called "Mega Cheep Chomp's Shell Shock". Players must shoot at him with cannons in order to earn points whilst keeping the Cheep Chomp from targeting them as the creature rotates.
In Mario Party Superstars, the Cheep Chomp makes a brief appearance in Yoshi's Tropical Island. During the board when players land on Happening Spaces, the Cheep Chomp will arrive, swallow Toadette (who holds the Stars) and take her to the other side of the board (spitting her out in Bowser's former location) as Bowser takes Toadette's former spot. The game refers to these segments as "Cheep Chomp's Trick".
