Chain Chomplets, also referred to as Chain Chompers,[1] are young Chain Chomps (or relatives of them) owned by a female bright red Pianta at Pianta Village in Super Mario Sunshine. They behave similarly to their parent species, but make a noise that sounds like a puppy barking. Chain Chomplets are made up of two spherical sections with a collar dividing each part, and their chains appear to be their tails; contrarily, the head is the only part of a Chain Chomp's body. Chain Chomplets are of a silver color when permanently cooled off, orange when angry, and black when temporarily calmed by a barrel of water or FLUDD. While angry, Chain Chomplets leave a trail of burning goop and have small flames on their chains.
Chain Chomplets are the focus of Episode 1, where Mario has to calm them with water from FLUDD, since the Chain Chomplets are fevered. Once this is done, their tails can be grabbed. Releasing the tail slingshots the Chain Chomplet, hopefully into the river where they will cool off completely. If the player waits too long, the Chain Chomplets will fire back up.
Chain Chomplets might be related to the Chain Chomp in Episode 4, since it must be calmed and cooled in a similar fashion. Like the Chain Chomplets, this Chain Chomp's color changes when placed in a pool of water.

Trivia
- In Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour and Mario Golf: Advance Tour, Chomplet's name can be seen in the score chart.
- The shark-like faces of the Chain Chomplets with the small lower jaw are shared with that of the Elder Princess Shroob's Chain Chomp in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time as well as Template:Media link in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, but not the game's sprites.
- Chain Chomplets share their Japanese name with CiaoCiao and ChowChow, small Chain Chomp characters who appear in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening.
