Chain Chomps (ワンワン, Wanwan) are recurring enemies in the Mario games. Chain Chomps are a canine-like species that are round and made of metal. They have a giant mouth filled with large, sharp teeth. Chain Chomps are also very aggressive and will attempt to lunge and bite the player. Typically in Mario games, Chain Chomps are restrained by a metal chain.
Origin
Chain Chomps first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3 and have become a recurring character since. In most games, Chain Chomps are tethered to chains and will try to lunge and bite the player if close enough. The design of the Chain Chomp in Super Smash Bros. 4 is similar to their modern look in contemporary 3D Mario games; however, the chain itself originates from the chain in Super Mario Bros. 3 as it was simply circles representing the chain.

Chain Chomps make a minor appearance in Brawl as a background character in Yoshi's Island, and it appears as both a trophy and a sticker.
