Final Chapter, Story 3: The way to the open door
Wario facing two Chūta

Chūta are enemies in Wario Land II. These rodents (described as "mice"[1] generically) emerge from mouseholes and attack Wario by tackling him, though the attack is too weak to inflict any damage and only causes Wario to bounce back a few steps. Chūta cannot be stunned from being stomped, meaning that Wario cannot pick them up and carry them around. When Wario defeats a Chūta, a new one will respawn after the player re-approaches the mousehole. Chūta do not drop coins when defeated.
