'''Flame Chomps''', originally '''Fire Chomps''',<ref>{{cite|language=en|title=''Super Mario Bros. 3'' instruction booklet|page=36|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=1990}}</ref> are enemies first appearing in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They are [[Chain Chomp]]-like creatures that float along with a trail of four [[fireball]]s each. At any time, a Flame Chomp may shoot a fireball from its "tail" at [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. When it runs out of fireballs, the Flame Chomp explodes, damaging the player if they are within the blast radius. Flame Chomps are not very durable, unlike Chain Chomps, because they are vulnerable to being [[stomp]]ed and having [[fireball]]s thrown at them.
'''Flame Chomps''', originally '''Fire Chomps''',<ref>''Super Mario Bros. 3'' English instruction booklet. Page 36.</ref> are enemies that first appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They resemble [[Chain Chomp]]s but differ in several ways. They are not restricted by chains, and they instead float along with a trail of four [[fireball]]s each. At any time, a Flame Chomp may shoot a fireball from its "tail" at [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. When it runs out of fireballs, the Flame Chomp explodes, damaging the player if they are within the blast radius. Also, unlike Chain Chomps, Flame Chomps are not very durable, as they are vulnerable to mere [[stomp]]s and [[fireball]]s thrown by [[Fire Mario]]. They live mainly in the skies.

Fire Chomps are enemies in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. They are featureless black orbs that follow the player, occasionally stopping to reveal their face briefly and spit a fireball. After using up their fireballs, Fire Chomps continue to follow the player, flashing red before exploding like [[Bob-omb]]s. They can be defeated with stomps, fireballs, [[hammer]]s, [[Invincible Mario|invincibility]], and [[Raccoon Mario]] or [[Tanooki Mario]]'s tail whips. Regardless of how they are beaten, however, Fire Chomps would always respawn until they self-destruct.

In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', while no normal Fire Chomps appear in the game, [[flame thrower (Flame Chomp)|a derivative]] is introduced. They are motionless and shoot a homing fireball when the player approaches. Unlike usual Fire Chomps, they do not self-destruct or run out of fire. These objects originally lacked faces or an explicit connection to Fire Chomps, which were given to them starting with the remake.

Flame Chomps are enemies in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' They are encountered in [[World 7-1 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-1]] only. Flame Chomps act the same as before, but a difference with their appearance is that their face is now shown at all times.
Flame Chomps appear under their current name in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' as uncommon enemies, appearing only in [[World 7-1 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-1]]. They retain their previous characteristics and weaknesses from ''Super Mario Bros 3.'', with the exception that they now depict their faces at all times.

====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
Flame Chomps are enemies in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. Compared to previous appearances, when a Flame Chomp has no more fireballs, it begins to go after the player much faster before exploding. As usual, they can be defeated with a stomp or fireballs, and can also be frozen with [[Ice Ball]]s. Their look was further standardized from ''New Super Mario Bros.'' in that Flame Chomps now have five teeth.
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', Flame Chomps are a bit more common, appearing in [[World 2-6 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 2-6]], [[World 8-3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 8-3]], and [[World 9-6 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 9-6]]. Flame Chomps have a minor addition to their attack pattern; once out of fireballs, it begins pursuing the player much faster before exploding. As usual, they can be defeated with a stomp or fireballs, and can also be frozen with [[Ice Ball]]s. From this game on, they are depicted with five teeth.

Only one Flame Chomp appears as an enemy in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. It is encountered in a hidden room in [[Rising Tides of Lava]]. Flame Chomps are also enemies in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', this time as part of their own level, [[Flame Chomp Ferris Wheel]], where a total of sixteen are encountered. Flame Chomps had their behavior modified: They now draw in their entire fiery "tail" to shoot out a massive fireball then chomp in place while flashing red and self-destructing eventually.
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', only one Flame Chomp appears in the entire game, located in a hidden room in [[Rising Tides of Lava]]. It can be bounced off of to obtain the stage's third [[Star Coin]].
 
A total of 16 Flame Chomps also appear in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'' level [[Flame Chomp Ferris Wheel]], where they act differently; rather than spitting one fireball at a time, all the Flame Chomps in the aforementioned level instead draw in their entire fiery "tail" to shoot out a massive fireball. After this, rather than chasing the player, these Flame Chomps simply chomp in place as they flash red and eventually self-destruct.

Flame Chomps are enemies in the {{iw|smashwiki|Smash Run}} mode of ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]''. Like in previous games, they breathe fireballs at the player and explode shortly after losing all of their fireballs. The fire trail can also damage the player if they run into it. They are weak to the water effect.

Flame Chomps are enemies who can become allies to the player in ''[[Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition]]''. A Flame Chomp's attribute is [[Fire Flower|Fire]], meaning that it is powerless against [[Penguin Suit|Water]], yet strong to [[Super Leaf|Wood]]. Flame Chomps have relatively high HP and they are very efficient in regenerating their team's health points. Instead, their attack point rating is a little poor. The main skill of any Flame Chomp in the game is called Flame Dance, which increases the attack rating of every Fire-type team mate by 1.3 for five turns. Flame Chomps also have a secondary skill, the Skill Boost; when the player enters a course, this skill helps by reducing the number of turns till the main skill can be used.
