Template:Species-infobox Chuckyas,[1] also formatted as Chuck-Yas,[2] are a large purple variant of Bob-ombs found in Super Mario 64 and its remake, Super Mario 64 DS. They are found in Wet-Dry World, Tall, Tall Mountain, Rainbow Ride, the "huge" area of Tiny-Huge Island, and in Bowser in the Sky; in the remake, they are additionally found in the Battle Fort.
In Super Mario 64, they have red spheres for hands and purple arms, as well as a yellow antenna with a red orb on their heads; their backs have a black, diamond-shaped plate, and they move about by sliding across the ground on a metal point. In Super Mario 64, they have a somewhat different appearance: they now have grey arms with boxing glove-like hands, their antennas are white, and the plate on their backs is replaced by a gold windup key, giving them a closer resemblance to normal Bob-ombs. When moving, they produce winding sounds, similar to Heave-Hos.
Chuckyas patrol a small area, occasionally pausing to turn around. When Mario is in range, they charge towards him; if they catch him, the Chuckya picks him up and throws him in a random direction, similar to the Big Bob-omb. Chuckyas are usually placed in areas where they can throw Mario down a cliff or platform and cause him to take fall damage upon landing, or even off the map, costing him a life. It is possible to escape from a Chuckya's grasp by pressing 
and/or pushing the Control Stick from the inside to the outside 11 times before the Chuckya throws Mario.[3]
To defeat a Chuckya, Mario must pick the creature up from behind and throw it, causing the enemy to explode and release five coins. In Super Mario 64 DS, Yoshi cannot defeat Chuckyas as a result of this, and must use the Mario Cap, Luigi Cap or Wario Cap instead.
