- “Blub blub blub...”
- —Cheep-Cheep, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Cheep-Cheeps (Japanese プクプク Pukupuku) are fish that made their first appearance in Super Mario Bros. in the underwater levels. They are common recurring enemies throughout the 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 gray and green. Another type of green Cheep-Cheep is called a Deep Cheep, which made it's appearance in New Super Mario Bros..
Appearances
Super Mario Bros.
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. They are found in all of the water levels. And they can usually be seen with Bloopers. In some levels Cheep-Cheeps jump off from the bottom of the screen creating random obstacles. These can be killed in a single jump but it is hard to do it as they jump very high making them very annoying.
There are 2 kinds of Cheep-Cheeps in this game. One of them is colored red and moves moderately quickly. The other is colored gray (green in SMAS) and moves more slowly.
Super Mario Bros. 3
In Super Mario Bros. 3, Cheep-Cheep act the same, although they can also jump out of water and lava. They are mainly seen in World 3. Also, around this time, Cheep-Cheep's tail fin color change from white to yellow, and the slow-moving Cheep-Cheeps were colored green. The game was also to include yellow Cheep-Cheeps, which were to move even faster than red Cheep-Cheeps, but they were taken out due to unknown reasons.
Super Mario World
In Super Mario World, they posed a numerous threat as the white, slow-moving fish found underwater and in floating bubbles, although they were only found in bubbles when they appeared on land. Those can be killed easily by simply touching them which makes them easy Points. They can be killed with a flick of the Cape, a lick from Yoshi, and smothering them in Fireballs. For some reason, like the Ninjis, they weren't included in the credits.
Super Mario Land: 6 Golden Coins
Super Mario Land: 6 Golden Coins again featured Cheep-Cheeps. Cheep-Cheeps impeded Mario's progress through the Macro and Turtle Zones by swimming back and forth in the water, like a Goomba. Among the other fish, they were accompanied by similar-looking Blurps. They could be destroyed by a tossed Green Shell or a fireball.
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Cheep-Cheeps appeared in this game as weak underwater enemies. However, in the English version, they were renamed as Goby.
Super Mario Sunshine
Cheep-Cheeps are found in Ricco Harbor and Noki Bay in the game Super Mario Sunshine. While they mostly just flail, they cause Mario to spin when they touch him. They can be defeated with FLUDD, but will reappear almost instantly. Yoshi can turn them into platforms by spraying them with certain fruit juice.
Paper Mario series
Template:Catch Card In the Paper Mario series, Cheep-Cheeps are considerably more intelligent than their predecessors, and are able to speak, as well as, strangely enough, 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 was among Mario's many partners in Paper Mario. Cheep-Cheeps also appear as enemies in Super Paper Mario, though they were allies in the first two games.
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Cheep-Cheeps appeared as enemies at the Oho Ocean. They had the same coloration of Goby, from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. If we jump on them, they turn at Puffer-Cheeps, Cheep-Cheeps full of spines.
New Super Mario Bros.
In New Super Mario Bros., Cheep-Cheeps behave the same way as in other platformers, and have a larger version. (Mega Cheep-Cheep). 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 . In Level 2-4, a strange Cheep-Cheep appears in a bonus area. It swims in a wavy line and trails six coins behind it.
Mario Party Series
Mario Party 7
In Mario Party 7, Cheep-Cheeps appear in many Mimi-Games, including Fish & Cheeps, Bridge Work, and Be My Chum. There is also a Cheep-Cheep in the Grand Canal that will squirt the player back to the start who lands on the ? space in front of what looks like the leaning tower of Pisa.
Mario Party 8
They make 2 cameo appearences in Mario Party 8. One is in the Minigame Rowed to Victory. They appear in the backround watching the players row their muscles out. After that they assist a Mega Cheep-Cheep in chasing the losers. Also they appear as one of the Pictures in Picture Perfect you have to make.
Mario Party DS
There is a minigame called Cheep Chump, where the player must prevent their character getting sucked up by a Cheep-Cheep.
Super Mario Galaxy
Cheep-Cheeps reappeared in Super Mario Galaxy acting the same way as before in old games. They were killed by a Green Shell or a red or a Gold Shell or by Star Spinning them. They are also seen in the video at the end of the game jumping out of the water near Peach's Castle.
Other Games
Cheep-Cheeps are also found in many Mario Kart courses. These include Peach Beach (Mario Kart: Double Dash!!), and Cheep-Cheep Beach (Mario Kart DS) .In Super Mario Kart, they are refered to as Flopping Cheep-Cheeps. In the mission 1-4 in Mario Kart DS, the player's task is to defeat five Cheep-Cheeps. Cheep-Cheeps have also appeared in the Mario Party Series, having several roles, mostly in mini-games involving catching or dodging Cheep-Cheeps. In Mario Kart Wii, there is a kart called the Cheep Charger. It resembles a Cheep-Cheep with a seat, steering wheel, and wheels. In Koopa Cape, in underwater tunnel Cheep-Cheeps are swiming around in the water. They also appear in Mario Super Sluggers at Daisy Cruiser and jump on the deck at night. Gooper Blooper appears with the Cheep Cheeps.
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 natively 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 Sashimie wrote to Sushie is written in Mario's language.
Gender
In the Super Mario Bros. instruction booklet, Cheep-Cheep is female. This makes her the first generic Mario enemy to be female.
Trophy Information from Super Smash Bros. Brawl
"A round fish with big eyes. Although mainly aquatic, Cheep Cheeps sometimes attack above land like flying fish, at which point Mario can stomp on them. There are a wide variety of Cheep Cheep variations, including spiked ones and enormous ones.''
