Underchomp

Underchomp is a boss who appears in Super Paper Mario. It is a Chain Chomp who is based on Cerberus from Greek mythology who guarded the gates to the Underworld and had three heads. The Underchomp is found in The Underwhere, where Mario goes after he dies in Chapter 6.
He is unleashed by Doorguy the Third as a test. The battle is unique as it is like a classic turn-based RPG battle in which the Underchomp and Mario and co. each have one attack a turn. When Mario is fighting the Underchomp he can use the Pixl, or Piccolo, to put him into a deep sleep. Doing this makes the battle much easier, but the battle itself is very difficult without Piccolo. It is also recommended using the Bowser/Thudley combo to take down the Underchomp quickly. In the fight, Mario can take massive amounts of damage as well as die with ease. During the fight, Mario can use his partner's special powers as well as use Pixls and Items.
