Choropū-san (チョロプーさん, translates to Mr. Monty Mole) is a Monty Mole who works for Bowser and also the last guard of the Mega Mole-shaped temple located at the Pū Tairiku in the third Super Mario Kart volume of the Super Mario Kodansha manga. The "-san" suffix is what Princess Peach calls him. Choropū-san wears a beret with a skull printed on the front.
When Mario and his friends are in the race, Bowser commands Choropū-san to ambush them. Though not initially intimidated, Choropū-san angrily throws a deadly scorpion at Mario and Peach. Luigi gets stung by the scorpion instead, with his head massively swollen. Mario and Peach then quickly go to the Pū Tairiku in order to get the serum to cure Luigi. However, Choropū-san returns to claim that he is the last guard of the serum in the inner temple, and that they have to beat him in order to obtain it. Mario, however, quickly runs over him.
