Flame Chomps, otherwise known as Fire Chomps, are an enemy type encountered in the Mario Series.
Attacks and Weaknesses[]
In all games that they appear in, Flame Chomps will chase after Mario or Luigi by floating around the stage. At any time, they will shoot one of their four fireballs at them. Once they have shot all four fireballs, they will explode, damaging the Mario brother or brothers within their blast radius. In some games, they will begin to chase Mario or Luigi with greater speed before exploding. In New Super Luigi U, they gain the new ability of shooting all of the fireballs from their tail at once, creating a much larger fireball. They can be defeated by hits from stomps, fireballs, hammers, Starmen, and tail whips.
