Their name comes from a corruption of the phrase "chuck you," referring to their method of attack. In their original appearance, Chuckyas have red spheres for hands and purple arms, as well as yellow antennas with red orbs on their heads; their backs have black, diamond-shaped plates, and they move about by sliding across the ground on a metal point. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', they have a somewhat different appearance consisting of grey arms with boxing glove-like hands and white antennas, and the plates on their backs are replaced by gold windup keys, giving them a closer resemblance to normal Bob-ombs. When moving, Chuckyas produce winding sounds, similarly to [[Heave-Ho]]s.

| | '''Chuckyas''' are large purple creatures that resemble [[Bob-omb]]s and are found in the game ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. They move around a small area, and if [[Mario]] gets too close, they pick him up and throw him in a random direction. To defeat a Chuckya, Mario must pick the creature up from behind and throw the Chuckya, causing the enemy to explode and release five [[Coin]]s. [[Yoshi]] cannot defeat these enemies in ''Super Mario 64 DS''. They are found in [[Wet-Dry World]], [[Tall Tall Mountain]], [[Rainbow Ride]], [[Tiny-Huge Island]] (in the giant area), and [[Bowser in the Sky]], as well as the exclusive [[Battle Fort]] in the remake. In the remake, they have wind-up keys on their backs. |

| In ''Super Mario 64'' and ''Super Mario 64 DS'', Chuckyas are encountered in [[Wet-Dry World]]; on [[Tall, Tall Mountain]]; in [[Rainbow Ride]]; on [[Tiny-Huge Island]]'s "huge" portion; and in [[Bowser in the Sky]], as well as in [[Battle Fort]] exclusively in the DS remake. When [[Mario]] is in range of a Chuckya, it charges towards him, and if a Chuckya catches him, it picks him up and throws him in a random direction, similarly to what the [[King Bob-omb|Big Bob-omb]] does. It is possible to escape from a Chuckya's grasp by pressing {{button|n64|A}} and/or pushing the Control Stick from the inside to the outside 11 times before the Chuckya throws Mario.<ref>{{cite|author=UncommentatedPannen|date=September 26, 2017|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=_R8c70zuJSw|title=Escaping from Chuckya's Grasp|publisher=YouTube|language=en|accessdate=May 27, 2024}}</ref> Chuckyas patrol small areas. Usually, Mario can be thrown down a far distance or even into a [[pit]]. While moving, Chuckyas occasionally pause to turn around. To defeat a Chuckya, Mario must pick it up from behind and throw it, causing it to explode and release five [[coin]]s. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', [[Yoshi]] cannot defeat Chuckyas, because he cannot pick up enemies.

| *The Chuckya's method of attack is similar to that of an unused ''Super Mario 64'' enemy named "[[List of Super Mario 64 pre-release and unused content#Enemies|Motos]]," which was discovered in 2020 from assembled source code and shares the same form of attack as the Chuckya, but instead has a [[Bully]]'s weakness to [[lava]] and the Big Bob-omb's slow walking speed and fast in-place turning. | | *Chuckya's name is derived from the phrase "chuck ya!". |
| | | *Chuckyas are basically miniature versions of [[King Bob-omb]]. |
