The Choropū Chika Butai (チョロプー地下部隊 Monty Mole Underground Unit?) are a group of Monty Mole miners under the command of Bowser. The Choropū Chika Butai make their only appearance in the third Super Mario Kart volume of the Super Mario Kodansha manga. Despite being Monty Moles, the Choropū Chika Butai have much more of a resemblance to Mega Moles, with additional mining helmets as well.

During one of the races, Bowser calls upon the Choropū Chika Butai to sabotage the race to allow him and Wario to win it. The Choropū Chika Butai alongside some Chargin' Chucks help break a supporting beam to make the track fall apart. However, Mario and Peach are able to use a small supporting pipe to drive on the other side and continue the race. Unfortunately, Bowser and Wario on the other hand are stuck on the other side of the road.
