The '''Underchomp''' is a red, yellow, and blue three-headed [[Chain Chomp]] that acts as a guard dog of [[The Underwhere]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. It is located in [[Underwhere Road]]. Beating the Underchomp is [[Dorguy the Third]]'s test. Despite the fact that Dorguy the Third is the one that summons it, the Underchomp's Catch Card states that all three [[Dorguy]]s have ownership of the beast. The Underchomp is based upon the legendary hellhound [[wikipedia:Cerberus|Cerberus]], a giant, three-headed dog who guarded the gates of [[wikipedia:Hades|Hades]] in Greek mythology. In one story, he was put to sleep by the music of Orpheus, which is similar to how [[Piccolo]]'s music can put the Underchomp to sleep. | The '''Underchomp''' is a red, yellow, and blue three-headed [[Chain Chomp]] that acts as a guard dog of [[The Underwhere]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''.

The player cannot use [[Tippi]] at any point during the battle with the Underchomp, and it does not appear in the field before or after the encounter, making it the only enemy in the game (and one of the few in the ''Paper Mario'' series) that cannot be [[Tattle]]d. However, a Tattle exists in the game data. | The player cannot use [[Tippi]] at any point during the battle with the Underchomp, and it does not appear in the field before or after the encounter, making it the only enemy in the game (and one of the few in the ''Paper Mario'' series) that cannot be [[Tattle]]d.
