History Edit

Super Mario-kun Edit

In volume 5 of Super Mario-kun, one of the Monty Moles briefly mentioned the existence of King Choropū when one Monty Mole suggested to take Mario and his friends to King Choropū's place. However, the Monty Moles changed their minds and decided to take them to their livestock instead.[2]

Paper Mario: Sticker Star Edit

King Choropū would have physically appeared in Paper Mario: Sticker Star, as seen in an official E3 2010 screenshot. King Choropū would have also likely been a boss, and one of his attacks involved him throwing a giant boulder at Mario or his partners, like the Chain Chomp in the screenshot.
