==History==
===''Yoshi's Island'' series===
===''Yoshi's Island'' series===
Chomp Rocks are common objects appearing in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its Game Boy Advance version]]. Chomp Rocks appear in gray and brown varieties, and the only difference is that gray ones will respawn at their starting point if the player goes offscreen and then returns, while the brown ones will not. Chomp Rocks are generally used for moving through [[soft rock]] and reaching high areas, but in some levels, they are an obstacle, such as when they need to be rolled off a thin pillar to reach a key. Some [[Slugger]]s hit these back and forth. [[Yoshi]] can push Chomp Rocks forward or jump on top of them to roll them in any direction. He can use Chomp Rocks to crush most enemies, including [[Tap-Tap]]. [[The Cave Of Chomp Rock]] is themed after them.
====''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''====
Chomp Rocks first appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and its [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|remake]] as a common object. They are generally used for moving through soft rock and reaching high areas, but in some levels, they are an obstacle, such as when they need to be rolled off a thin pillar to reach a key. Some [[Slugger]]s hit these back and forth. Yoshi can push Chomp Rocks forward or jump on top of them to roll them in any direction. He can use Chomp Rocks to crush most enemies, even otherwise-invulnerable foes, such as a [[Tap-Tap]].


Chomp Rocks return in both sequels, ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''. Though they are mostly the same as before, Chomp Rocks differ in ''Yoshi's Island DS'' in that neither color respawns, except for a brown one in the [[Island Museum]]'s Land Enemy section. Chomp Rocks in ''Yoshi's New Island'' use the same model as [[snowball]]s, except the latter is retextured.<ref>[[:File:YNI Snowball Retextured Chomp Rock.png|Image showcasing the retextured Chomp Rock.]]</ref>
Chomp Rocks come in gray and brown in this game, the difference being that the gray ones will respawn at their starting point if the player leaves the screen and comes back, while the brown ones will not.


===''Club Nintendo''===
====''Yoshi's Island DS''====
In the ''[[Club Nintendo (magazine)|Club Nintendo]]'' comic "[[Mario's Picross (comic)|Mario's Picross]]", [[Mario]] is arrested and locked up inside of a pyramid. He comes across a treasure chamber with a chest inside. When trying to pick up the treasure chest, a Chomp Rock is released through a trap door and starts rolling towards Mario. He escapes from the rock by jumping into a [[Mine Cart|lorry]] and moving away.
Chomp Rocks appear in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' unchanged from the previous game except for the fact that neither color respawns, except for the one in the [[Island Museum]]'s Land Enemy section - which happens to be brown.


===''Paper Mario'' series===
====''Yoshi's New Island''====
====''Paper Mario''====
Chomp Rocks appear in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', unchanged from the previous game.
Chomp Rocks appear in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' as background objects in [[Dry Dry Ruins (Paper Mario)|Dry Dry Ruins]], and resemble the living [[Stone Chomp]]s. They are also seen outside the Dry Dry Ruins, on decorative pedestals surrounding the outside. ''Paper Mario's'' Chomp Rocks have slightly gaping mouths.


====''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''====
====''Yoshi's Woolly World''====
Two Chomp Rocks appear in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' in the [[Palace of Shadow Tower]] area, blocking the [[Warp Pipe|pipes]] that Mario needs to unlock the tower. Actual Chain-Chomps guard the pipes. In this incarnation, the rocks are hollow and have open mouths. Mario can destroy the rocks by throwing [[Bobbery|Admiral Bobbery]] into the gaping maws of the rocks. When Bobbery explodes, the rock is destroyed.
Chomp Rocks reappear in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', acting the same as in previous ''Yoshi'' games.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caS_eSIKIj0</ref> In this game, they resemble [[wikipedia:amigurumi|amigurumi]] crochet spheres that come in many different color variations with white buttons for eyes. [[Frame Chomp]]s can be turned into a Chomp Rock if [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] throws a yarn ball at one. The color of the Chomp Rock is determined by the color of yarn used.


===''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''===
===Other appearances===
Brown Chomp Rocks appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', where the Yoshis are needed to move them on two occasions to open up new paths in [[Yoob's Belly]]. Five Yoshis can also use a Chomp Rock to lower [[Sunnycide]]'s defense after the Bros. free them from Yoob eggs.
Chomp Rocks appear in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' as background objects in [[Dry Dry Ruins]], and resemble the living [[Stone Chomp]]s, which are actually based off of entire [[Chain Chomp]]s. They are also seen outside the Dry Dry Ruins, on decorative pedestals surrounding the outside. ''Paper Mario's'' Chomp Rocks have slightly gaping mouths.


===''Yoshi's Woolly World''===
Two Chomp Rocks appear in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' in the [[Palace of Shadow]]'s Riddle Tower area, blocking the [[Warp Pipe|pipes]] that Mario needs to unlock the tower. Actual Chain Chomps guard the pipes. In this incarnation, the rocks are hollow and have open mouths. Mario can destroy the rocks by throwing [[Admiral Bobbery]] into the gaping maws of the rocks. When Bobbery explodes, the rock is destroyed.
Chomp Rocks reappear in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', functioning identically as in the ''Yoshi's Island'', though designed after [[wikipedia:amigurumi|amigurumi]] crochet spheres that come in many different color variations with white buttons for eyes. [[Frame Chomp]]s can be turned into a Chomp Rock if Yoshi throws a yarn ball at one. The color of the Chomp Rock is determined by the color of yarn used.
