'''Cheep-Cheeps''' (Japanese プクプク '''Pukupuku''') (sometimes spelled '''Cheep Cheeps''') are fish that made their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' in the underwater levels. They are common recurring enemies throughout the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]]. They are found mostly in the water but they can jump out of the water as well like in ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. There are many different species of Cheep-Cheeps. Cheep-Cheeps come in different colors, such as yellow and green. The most common ones, however, are red with a white patch on their stomach, a yellow tail fin, a mohawk-like dorsal fin and wing-like fins. They also have blue eyes and pink lips.
 
==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Bros.'' / ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels''====
[[File:CheepCheepSMB.png|left|thumb|A Cheep-Cheep from ''Super Mario Bros.'']]
[[File:Ani smb1cheepr.gif|frame]]
In ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', Cheep-Cheeps are found in the underwater levels, swimming towards the [[player]], where they can only be defeated with a [[fireball]], or if Mario is [[Invincible Mario|invincible]]. They are found in all of the water levels and can usually be seen with [[Blooper|Bloobers]]. In some levels, red Cheep-Cheeps jump up from the bottom of the screen, creating random obstacles. These can be defeated in a single jump, but it's hard to do so, as they jump very high. They often appear in pit-heavy areas, and can foul Mario's attempts to cross should they jump directly under him.
 
There are two kinds of Cheep-Cheeps in the game. One of them is colored red and moves moderately fast. The other is colored gray (green in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'') and moves more slowly. In some levels, the red Cheep-Cheeps grow wings and fly up from the bottom of the screen.<ref>As stated in the ''Super Mario Bros.'' instruction manual.</ref>
 
====''Super Mario Bros. 3''====
[[File:CheepCheepSMA4.png|frame|right]]
In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Cheep-Cheeps act the same, although they can also jump out of water and [[lava]]. They are mainly seen in [[Sea Side]]. Also, around this time, Cheep-Cheep's tail fin color change from white to yellow, and the slow-moving Cheep-Cheeps were recolored green (instead of gray). The game was also to include yellow Cheep-Cheeps, which were to move even faster than red Cheep-Cheeps and appear in trios, but they were taken out due to unknown reasons. This game also introduced infant and adult versions of Cheep-Cheep - [[Baby Cheep]] and its mother, [[Big Bertha]], as well as the feared [[Boss Bass]].
 
====''Super Mario World''====
In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', they pose a numerous threat as the yellow, slow-moving fish found underwater and in floating bubbles, although they are only found in [[bubble]]s when they appear on land. If Cheep-Cheeps are on land flipping around, Mario or Luigi can simply run into them to defeat them. They can also be defeated with a [[Cape]], [[Yoshi]], or [[fireball]]s.
 
====''Super Mario Sunshine''====
[[File:Bubba_Sunshine_Art.png‎|100px|thumb|A Cheep-Cheep from ''Super Mario Sunshine''.]]
There are three varieties of Cheep-Cheeps in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. An orange variety is found in [[Ricco Harbor]] and sometimes during the King Boo fight in [[Sirena Beach]], a flaming, maroon variant lives in the lava in [[Corona Mountain]], and a pink variety can be found in [[Noki Bay]] and the coral reef at [[Gelato Beach]].
 
The orange and charred varieties make huge leaps and can be defeated by either a [[jump]] or with [[F.L.U.D.D.]], and can also turned into platforms by [[Yoshi]]'s juice. However, they will keep respawning. If [[King Boo]] spins three question marks on the slot machine during his battle, he may spit out two Cheep-Cheeps, but they'll flop about upside down. The pink ones will actively hunt Mario down if he gets too close and they will catch Mario in their mouths, dragging him down deeper into the depths of the water. These Cheeps are invincible to all of Mario's attacks, and it's unknown if Yoshi can defeat them since they're found in deep waters that Mario typically can't reach with Yoshi. They have blue fins on their tails and back in this game, as well as blue spots on their undersides, as well as a slightly flatter body shape.
 
====''Super Mario 64 DS''====
[[File:CheepCheepsm64ds.png|170px|thumb|right|A Cheep-Cheep and a [[Manta]] from ''Super Mario 64 DS''.]]
In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', Cheep-Cheeps replace [[Bub (Super Mario 64)|Bub]]s in [[Dire, Dire Docks]]. They don't really pose a threat to the heroes, as they do not attack them. In this game, they appear to be orange, unlike most games where they are colored red.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', Cheep-Cheeps behave the same way as in other platformers and have a [[Mega Cheep-Cheep|larger version]]. However, two subspecies were introduced: the [[Deep-Cheep]] and the [[Cheep-Chomp]]. Deep-Cheeps and Cheep-Chomps chase Mario when they appear on-screen. Deep-Cheeps can't turn around, but Cheep-Chomps can. The Deep-Cheep also has a [[Mega Deep-Cheep|larger version]]. In [[World 2 (New Super Mario Bros.)#World 2-4|World 2-4]], a strange Cheep-Cheep appears in a bonus area. It swims in a wavy line and trails six coins behind it. They also briefly turn toward the player if run into from behind.
 
====''Super Mario Galaxy''====
[[File:CheepCheepsmg.PNG|thumb|left|100px|Artwork of a Cheep-Cheep in ''Super Mario Galaxy''.]]
Cheep-Cheeps reappear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', acting the same way as they did in older games. They only appear in the [[Deep Dark Galaxy]], in the second and third missions. In the second mission, they appear on a small planet, half of which is covered in a thin layer of water, and bounce up and down around the planet. They can be defeated either with a [[spin]] or by [[jump]]ing on them. One appears underwater in the third mission, which can only be beaten with a spin or [[Green Shell|Koopa Shell]]. They are also seen in the video at the end of the game, jumping out of the water near [[Princess Peach's Castle]].
<br clear=all>
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
[[File:CheepcheepSchool.png|thumb|170px|right|A Cheep-Cheep School, in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''.]]
[[File:Cheep_red.png|left|frame]]
Cheep-Cheeps also reappear in the game ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. In this game, there are three colors of Cheep-Cheep: red, green, and golden.
 
The red Cheep-Cheeps behave just like they did in the original ''New Super Mario Bros.''.
 
The golden colored Cheep-Cheeps ([[Eep-Cheep]]s), are always found in schools, called '''Cheep-Cheep Schools'''. They'll also swim away from players whenever they get close, the complete opposite of the Deep-Cheep's behavior. The Eep-Cheeps seem to resemble the [[List of Super Mario Bros. 3 beta elements|beta]] Cheep-Cheeps of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.
 
====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
Cheep-Cheeps reappear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', but are much more common than in the predecessor. They appear in water-themed galaxies such as [[Cosmic Cove Galaxy]] and [[Starshine Beach Galaxy]], but they don't hop on land. They are now found swimming near the surface and can be defeated by a spin, jump, or by [[Yoshi]]'s tongue. They can't be stunned with a [[Star Bit]].
 
====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
[[File:SM3DL 3-2.jpg|thumb|200px|Mario encountering Cheep-Cheeps underwater in ''Super Mario 3D Land''.]]
Cheep-Cheeps reappear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' as underwater enemies in some of the levels, including some of World 3. They can also jump out of water. This time, stomping on a Cheep-Cheep underwater won't harm Mario. Additionally, they can be flattened by using [[Ground Pound]] whilst underwater. They can also be defeated by [[fireballs]], tail whips, boomerang hits, and turning into [[Statue Mario]] above them.
{{br}}
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
Cheep-Cheeps reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where they jump out of water trying to harm Mario or Luigi. After the Mario brothers touch a [[Gold Ring (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|Gold Ring]], Cheep-Cheeps (among other enemies) will turn golden. In this state, they are followed by a row of five [[coin]]s.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. U''====
[[File:Yoshi Cheeps NSMBU.png|thumb|left|Jumping Cheep-Cheeps in ''New Super Mario Bros. U''.]]
Cheep-Cheeps reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. They behave exactly like in past titles. Jumping Cheep-Cheeps also appear, as well as the Eep-Cheeps. There is also a new type of Cheep-Cheep, known as the [[Mecha Cheep]], that appears in underwater airships. They seem to be mechanical, and they use propellers on their fins to move forward.
 
===Nintendo Adventure Books===
As Luigi and Toad are exploring Water Land in ''[[Leaping Lizards]]'', some Cheep-Cheeps jump from the water to try and attack them, but most are avoided; some of the fish also appear three weeks later among the crowds at the International Mushroom Games. In ''[[Pipe Down!]]'', [[Ludwig von Koopa]] will sic some Cheep-Cheeps on the Mario Bros. if they attempt to attack him directly during one portion of the book, and some will attack Mario along with some other monsters if he pulls the wrong nob on Ludwig's giant pipe organ.
 
If Mario, Luigi, Toad and the [[Mushroom King]] are run down by a group of [[Dino Rhino]]s in ''[[Flown the Koopa]]'', they will lose their tickets to the International Dino-Flying Derby, which will end up being blown into a tree inhabited by Cheep-Cheeps by a gust of wind. If Mario is chosen to get the tickets back, he will succeed, stomping the irritated Cheep-Cheep he takes them from. If Luigi tries to get the tickets instead, a Cheep-Cheep will bite him and cause him to fall out of the tree and into a patch of [[Muncher]]s, causing a [[Game Over]].
 
===''Mario Kart'' series===
====''Super Mario Kart''====
Cheep-Cheeps first appear in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series, ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. They appear as enemies along with [[Thwomp]]s, [[Piranha Plant]]s, and [[Monty Mole]]s. Cheep-Cheeps appear in two races, [[Koopa Beach 1]] and [[Koopa Beach 2]]. In the courses, they are obstacles that the player must dodge.
 
====''Mario Kart 64''====
After appearing as enemies in ''Super Mario Kart'', a Cheep-Cheep appears as an enemy in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. A giant Cheep-Cheep appears in the course [[Banshee Boardwalk]]. This Cheep-Cheep tries to swallow the passing racers that drive by.
 
====''Mario Kart: Super Circuit''====
Cheep-Cheeps appear as non-playable characters in the [[Game Boy Advance]] game, ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]''. In this game, they have a course named after them, called [[Cheep-Cheep Island]]. Larger Cheep-Cheeps can be seen jumping in the background here. Koopa Beach 1 and Koopa Beach 2 from [[Super Mario Kart]] appear in this game, but the Cheep-Cheeps are absent due to both being Extra tracks.
 
====''Mario Kart DS''====
Cheep-Cheeps, again, make non-playable appearances in the [[Nintendo DS]] game, ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. In this game, Cheep-Cheeps have a course named after them, called [[Cheep Cheep Beach]]. Koopa Beach 2 returns, with Cheep-Cheeps appearing as hazards. In [[Mario Kart DS#Mission|mission]] 1-4, [[Wario]] must storm through five Cheep-Cheeps with a [[Star]].
 
====''Mario Kart Wii''====
In ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', Cheep-Cheeps make cameo appearances. In the course, [[Koopa Cape]], when the player enters the underwater tunnel, Cheep-Cheeps are seen in the background. [[Unagi]]s can also be seen with them. Also, the [[Cheep Charger]] is a [[Kart]] that resembles Cheep-Cheeps for light-weighted characters.
 
====''Mario Kart 7''====
In ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', Cheep Cheeps once again appear on the returning course Koopa Cape. They also appear on [[Cheep Cheep Lagoon]].
 
===''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins''===
''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'' again features Cheep-Cheeps. Cheep-Cheeps hinder [[Mario]]'s progress through the [[Macro Zone|Macro]] and [[Turtle Zone]]s by swimming back and forth in the water, like a [[Goomba]]. Among the other fish, they are accompanied by similar-looking [[Blurp]]s. They can be destroyed by a tossed [[Green Shell]] or a fireball.
 
===''Yoshi'' series===
[[File:Flopsy Fish.PNG|frame]]
Cheeps-Cheeps appear in several [[Yoshi (series)|''Yoshi'' games]], though they are named '''Flopsy Fish''' in the English versions. They make their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' (pictured at right) and reappear in ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', ''[[Tetris Attack]]'' (as a character, paired with a [[Lunge Fish]]), ''[[Yoshi Touch & Go]]'', and ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. They are a bit bigger than in most games and either jump out of water or just swim around. A more aggressive version repeatedly jumps out of the water with its mouth open. They can't be turned into [[Yoshi Egg|egg]]s if [[Yoshi]] eats them. The level "[[Lake Shore Paradise]]" has one of them as a map screen icon. In ''Yoshi Touch & Go'', a blue, spiky version similar to a [[Spiny Cheep-Cheep]] appears that has not been seen since. Similar enemies, called [[Blurp]]s, appear in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. Here, instead of wearing goggles as they do regularly, their appearance is similar to Cheep-Cheeps'.

In the English version of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', Cheep-Cheeps appear under the name '''Goby'''. They are actually Cheep-Cheeps, as they share the same Japanese name (''Pukupuku''). Gobies dwell underwater in [[Kero Sewers]]. They roam the waterways, battling intruders who invade their territory. In battle, a Goby will lower its head and ram into its enemy. Gobies have no special attacks, and they are weak against lightning-based magic attacks.
 
Unfortunately for the Gobies, the water of Kero Sewers can be drained, which is exactly what happens during the events of ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''. Without water, Gobies flop around erratically on the dry ground. However, when engaged by an attacker, Gobies will use their fins as wings, allowing them to fly for short periods of time. While flying, Gobies attack in the same way as they do when swimming. Gobies also have green-skinned relatives called [[Mr. Kipper]]s.

In the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]], Cheep-Cheeps are considerably more intelligent than their predecessors, and are able to speak, as well as safely live and travel about on land. As indicated in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', many even have jobs, such as blimp conductor and chef. The most significant of these land-dwelling fish is [[Sushie]], a female Cheep-Cheep who is among [[Mario]]'s many partners in ''Paper Mario''.
 
Cheep-Cheeps also appear as enemies in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', though they are allies in the first two games. A [[Shayde]] from [[The Underwhere]] told another of his species about how he lost his game and mentioned that he swam like a Cheep-Cheep and lost by being eaten by a Boss Bass.

Cheep-Cheeps return as enemies in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] game ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. In this game, they are only red, unlike in ''Super Paper Mario'' where they were also green. Cheep-Cheeps only appear in Whitecap Beach, where they jump out of the water, or poisoned water if [[Gooper Blooper]] hasn't been defeated. In battle, they can either slam into Mario or shoot a jet of water that could give Mario the [[Soggy]] status effect.
 
A [[Mega Cheep-Cheep]] also serves as a mini-boss and is fought in [[Surfshine Harbor]].

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', Cheep-Cheeps appeared as enemies at the [[Oho Ocean]]. They had the same coloration as in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. If the [[player]] jumps on them, they turn into [[Puffer-Cheep]]s, Cheep-Cheeps covered in spines.
 
===''Mario Party'' series===
====''Mario Party Advance''====
In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', there are two Cheep-Cheeps that appear in Shroom City. One of them is golden, and is a swim coach; the other is the normal red color and is the swim student. Upon arriving at the [[Mushroom Pool]], the coach tells the player that his student was lacking in confidence, and asks if the player will race him; however, the player has to lose, but make it look convincing. After succeeding, the coach rewards the player with the Gaddget [[Desktop Golf]]. The ending states that Cheep-Cheep had improved, even setting a record, and that the coach wrote a book about his confidence techniques.
 
====''Mario Party 7''====
In ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', Cheep-Cheeps appear in many [[minigame]]s, including [[Fish & Cheeps]], [[Bridge Work (Mario Party 7)|Bridge Work]], and [[Be My Chum]]. There is also a Cheep-Cheep in the [[Grand Canal]] that will squirt a player who lands on its [[Green Space]] (which is in front of what looks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa) back to the start.
 
====''Mario Party DS''====
There is a minigame called [[Cheep Chump]], where the player must prevent their character from getting sucked up by a Cheep-Cheep. There is another minigame called [[Cheep Cheep Chance]], where the player must choose the rope with the Cheep-Cheep on it.
 
====''Mario Party 8''====
Cheep-Cheeps make two cameo appearances in ''[[Mario Party 8]]''. One is in the minigame [[Rowed to Victory]]. They appear in the background watching the players row their boat. After that they assist a [[Mega Cheep-Cheep]] in chasing the losers. Also they appear as one of the pictures in [[Picture Perfect (Mario Party 8)|Picture Perfect]].
 
====''Mario Party 9''====
In ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', a giant Cheep-Cheep is one of the bosses that appear in the game. It is the mini-boss of [[Blooper Beach]]. The Cheep-Cheep is faced in the minigame [[Cheep Cheep Shot]], in which the players must attack the Cheep-Cheep by tossing shells at it while avoiding its attacks, which are charging directly at a player, or by diving at the players from the air.
 
Cheep-Cheeps also make minor appearances in the game. In the minigame [[Pianta Pool]], Cheep-Cheeps appear to leap through the rings the players grab. Three leap through a pink ring, while five leap through the golden ring. Additionally, in the minigame [[Pier Pressure]], players attempt to grab the lines that have Cheep-Cheeps on the end. Players are allowed to continue competing as long as they fish up a Cheep-Cheep. A Cheep-Cheep is also on one of the puzzles to be solved in the minigame [[Jigsaw Jumble]]. Additionally, [[Deep-Cheep]]s from ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' can be seen jumping over the water in Blooper Beach.
 
In this game, their name isn't hyphenated.
 
===''Super Princess Peach''===
Cheep-Cheeps appear in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', where they act similar to the Flopsy Fish in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. They can be defeated simply by jumping on them. A sub-species under the spell of the [[Vibe Scepter]] are the [[Sad Cheep Cheep]]s.
 
===''Mario Super Sluggers''===
They also appear in ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'' at [[Daisy Cruiser]], jumping around on the deck at night. [[Gooper Blooper]] appears with the Cheep-Cheeps.
 
===Other Appearances===
[[File:Cheep-Cheep (AR Fishing).JPG|thumb|right|200px|A Cheep-Cheep in the AR Fishing game]]
Cheep-Cheeps can be caught in the Fishing minigame included as part of the [[Augmented Reality Games]] software on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] if the [[Question Block]] AR Card is placed on a red surface.
 
Cheep-Cheeps also make a cameo in Lego City Undercover, in which they appear if the player goes fishing when not required.
 
==General Information==
===Language===
According to ''Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door'', Cheep-Cheeps have their own language, which is also called "Cheep-Cheep". This language is presumably spoken only by Cheep-Cheeps and it is only partly heard through the character [[Chef Shimi]] (who often mixes words, such as "saved" and "shaved", up due to his unique language knowledge). However, in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', the letter [[List of Implied Characters#Sashimie|Sashimie]] wrote to [[Sushie]] is written in Mario's language.
 
===Gender===
In the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' instruction booklet, Cheep-Cheeps are explicitly referred to as female. This makes them the first generic ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' enemy to be entirely female. However, this has changed since the ''Paper Mario'' series, in which both male and female members of the Cheep-Cheep species have appeared. The Cheep-Cheep boss of ''[[Mario Party 9]]'' is also referred to as male in the minigame description.
