'''Chuckoroks''' are a species of round, rock-like monsters seen only in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''.  
'''Chuckoroks''' are a species of round, rock-like monsters seen only in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''.  


[[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] encounter Chuckoroks during their return to [[Chucklehuck Woods]] in search of the [[Beanstar|Beanstar piece]]s. Entering a small area inhabited solely by the [[Winkle]]s, they are eventually forced to enter [[Winkle Colosseum]] to receive the Beanstar piece. They play the [[Chuckola Bounce]] [[minigame]] in the Colosseum, which pits them against the Chuckoroks.
[[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] encounter Chuckoroks on their search for the [[Beanstar|Beanstar Pieces]], more specifically on their return to [[Chucklehuck Woods]]. Here, the Mario Bros. come to a small area inhabited solely by the [[Winkle]]s and are eventually forced to enter [[Winkle Colosseum]] in order to receive the Beanstar piece. Inside the Colosseum, the brothers play a [[Chuckola Bounce]] [[minigame]] which finally pits them against the Chuckoroks, who move around in a circular motion and spit Chuckola Rocks at Mario and Luigi. Although these rocks can stun the Mario Bros. on contact, if the pair manages to make the Chuckola Rocks hit their [[Chuckola Board]], they turn blue and go against their firers. As such, if the rocks hit a Chuckorok, they would knock the beast away and reward Mario and Luigi with a point. If the brothers catch a [[Barrier Mushroom]], getting hit or manually firing their more-direct barrier at a Chuckorok would also make the creature explode. Although destroying some Chuckoroks, smaller ones would appear to replace them, making them harder to hit.


Chuckoroks move in tandem around the arena in a circular motion, and spit Chuckola Rocks at Mario and Luigi; these rocks stun the brothers on contact. Hitting the Chuckola Rocks with the Chuckola Board turns them blue and sends them back towards the Chuckoroks. If a Chuckola Rock hits a Chuckorok, it is defeated, and one point is added to the brothers' score. If a brother touches a Barrier Mushroom, a Chuckola Rock that hits him will automatically defeat the Chuckorok that sent it.  
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', the "X" on top of their heads are replaced by a giant swirl, and their eyes are completely black, as their eyes will turn red upon spitting Chuckola Rocks or Barrier Mushrooms at Mario & Luigi.


Chuckoroks that are defeated will be replaced after a while. After defeating a certain number of Chuckoroks, they will begin to be replaced by smaller ones that are harder to hit.
==Trivia==
*The Chuckoroks seem to be based off the enemies [[Octorok]]s from ''The Legend of Zelda'' series, both shoot rocks and have similar names. Also, the way to damage Chuckoroks in ''Superstar Saga'' is also similar to the way [[Link]] defeats Octoroks in ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'', by reflecting the projectile back to the Octorok.

Chuckoroks reappear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'' with an identical purpose. However, the 'X's on top of their heads are replaced by a giant swirl. Their eyes are completely black, but turn red when they spit Chuckola Rocks or Barrier Mushrooms.

==Trivia==
*Chuckoroks take inspiration from [[zeldawiki:Octorok|Octorok]]s from [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]], as both shoot rocks and have similar names. The method used to damage Chuckoroks is also similar to the way [[Link]] defeats Octoroks in ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'': by reflecting the enemy's projectile back at it.
