Template:Minigame-infobox Storm Chasers is a Battle minigame found in Mario Party 3 and a Free-for-All minigame found in Mario Party: The Top 100. Its name comes from "storm chasers," which are people who pursue and watch severe storms. The game will also appear in Mario Party Superstars.[1]

The characters are located in a blue and indigo fenced area in the middle of a desert. There are various cacti and flowers that can be found on the outside of the fence. Players with potted Piranha Plants have to chase the rain cloud (that got updated to greatly resemble Lakitu's Cloud in later Mario Party games) to feed the Piranha Plants as the rain cloud moves randomly. In the middle of the minigame, some Monty Moles pop out of the holes; if a player bumps into one, that player will trip over (in Mario Party 3) or be knocked back (in The Top 100), stunning them. The player who gathers the most rain for their potted Piranha Plant wins.
