They are sentient green springboards with a square head, red eyes, and sharp teeth. Their name is a portmanteau of "hop" and the phrase "chop-chop". These enemies usually appear in groups of three or more, and reside in areas where a [[springboard]] is required to obtain a collectible, such as a [[Green Star]].

'''Hop-Chops'''<ref>''Super Mario 3D World'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] eGuide</ref> are uncommon enemies that first appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. They are sentient green springboards with a square head, red eyes, and sharp teeth. These enemies usually appear in groups of three or more, and reside in areas where a [[springboard]] is required for objects, like [[Green Star]]s.

Hop-Chops are enemies first appearing in ''Super Mario 3D World''. They are usually encountered in groups. When players approach a Hop-Chop, it will begin to bounce toward them. Hop-Chops can be defeated by any attack. Some Hop-Chops react slower than others; these ones turn into [[Trampoline|springboard]]s when defeated, which the player can then carry and use. Usually, one Hop-Chop per group can turn into a springboard. If left as a springboard for too long, it will turn back into a Hop-Chop. This can also happen while it is carried.
When the players get near a group of Hop-Chops, they will begin to bounce towards them. Hop-Chops can be defeated by jumping on top of them, hitting them with projectiles, or swiping them with the [[Tanooki Mario|Tanooki tail]] or [[Cat Mario|Cat claws]]. Defeating a Hop-Chop sometimes turns it into a [[springboard]] which the player can carry and use, and is often used as a puzzle element in which the player has to figure out which Hop-Chop among the group will turn into a springboard upon defeat, rather than just falling apart into pieces. If a Hop-Chop does not break apart after being attacked, a sound will play signaling that the player has found the 'correct' one.


As springboards, Hop-Chops can be picked up, carried, and thrown. Much like [[Brolder]]s, Hop-Chops that do not break upon being hit will come back to life if they are not attacked after a certain period of time. Also like Brolders, if a Hop-Chop turns back to normal while in a player's hands, that player will take damage before dropping them.

Hop-Chops (singularized Hop-Chops for the first time) are enemies in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They can be placed in the ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' style only. Hop-Chops are no longer are defeated when jumped on, instead acting like Trampolines initially. Hop-Chops with wings jump and hover above the ground before dropping back down.
