Flame Chomps, originally Fire Chomps,[1] are enemies first appearing in Super Mario Bros. 3. They are Chain Chomp-like creatures that float along with a trail of four fireballs 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 stomped and having fireballs thrown at them.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario Bros. 3[edit]

Artwork of a Fire Chomp spiting out some fireballs from Super Mario Bros 3
Fire Chomp's original artwork for Super Mario Bros. 3

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-ombs. They can be defeated with stomps, fireballs, hammers, 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.

Level appearances

Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS[edit]

Fire Chomp
Main article: Flame thrower (Flame Chomp)

In Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS, while no normal Fire Chomps appear in the game, 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.

New Super Mario Bros.[edit]

A Flame Chomp

Flame Chomps are enemies in New Super Mario Bros. They are encountered in 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.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii[edit]

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 Balls. Their look was further standardized from New Super Mario Bros. in that Flame Chomps now have five teeth.

Level appearances

New Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]

Flame Chomps are enemies in New Super Mario Bros. 2. Their characteristics and weaknesses are the same as in New Super Mario Bros. Wii.

Level appearances

New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Luigi U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe[edit]

Flame Chomp
The only Flame Chomp in New Super Mario Bros. U, guarding a Star Coin.

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.

The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3[edit]

Fire Chomps from The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode, "The Beauty of Kootie".

Fire Chomps make a few appearances in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, such as in the episode "The Beauty of Kootie", where several Fire Chomps act as crew members on the Doom Ship.

In the show, Fire Chomps do not have a fireball tail, and have flexible borders around their eyes (which this time are red) and mouth. Fire Chomps also appeared during the episode "Never Koop a Koopa". They tried to attack Mario inside Castle Koopa, but Toad and Princess Toadstool opened the window and let them fall into the water.

Nintendo Adventure Books[edit]

A Fire Chomp appears in Koopa Capers, prowling a cave in the Magma Pits. While Luigi is fleeing from the Hot Feet that also live in the cave, he can choose to either rush blindly ahead, or take his time; if he chooses the latter, he will just narrowly avoid the Fire Chomp, but if he picks the former, he will run into and be scorched by the fireballs of the Fire Chomp, causing a Game Over.

Super Mario Bros. & Friends: When I Grow Up[edit]

A single Fire Chomp appears on the Homemaker page in Super Mario Bros. & Friends: When I Grow Up.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS[edit]

SmashWiki article: Flame Chomp

Flame Chomps are enemies in the 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.

Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition[edit]

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, meaning that it is powerless against Water, yet strong to 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.

In the game's commercial, Flame Chomps are used to demonstrate fusion between enemies.[citation needed]

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam[edit]

In Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, "Flame Chomp" can appear as a wrong answer when identifying a certain enemy in the Toad quizzes.

Minecraft[edit]

In the Super Mario Mash-up in Minecraft, Blazes are replaced by Flame Chomps.

I knew it was a bomb

The black ball floats in the air and approaches Mario. When it stops moving, it will spit flames from its mouth. You can defeat it by simply stepping on it, but beware that it will try to self-destruct and wreak havoc on you at the end.

If you thought Chain Chomps were bad, wait till you meet Flame Chomps. They use the flames that make up their tail as ammo, and when they run out, they head straight for you and self-destruct. When you defeat one, it'll explode and take out any enemies nearby, and it'll leave a whole load of stat boosts behind, too. (American English)
