A group of Chinchos.

A Chincho is an undead enemy species encountered in Super Mario Odyssey; they can be found in the Sand Kingdom, Wooded Kingdom, Seaside Kingdom, Ruined Kingdom, and Mushroom Kingdom. They are short, mummy-type enemies, with a skull for a head, and their eyes in the shape of stars; as such, they are undead dark purple Tostarenans, as proven by their Japanese name, despite already being skeletal. They appear only in dark areas such as sub-areas, so they are not present during the daytime. They will rise out from underneath the ground, usually in large groups. To defeat them, Mario must jump on them; if they only receive a hit from Cappy, they are stunned shortly and reheal the damage after a short time. They can also be defeated if charged at while riding Jaxi, or capturing a Chargin' Chuck.

Concept and creation

The Chinchos were designed with slightly different eyes compared to those of the Tostarenans.[1] The concept art reveals that they are meant to be dark purple-colored Tostarenans covered by bandages.
