[[Boss Bass]]es and the ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' [[Blurp (Yoshi's Story)|Blurp]]s have been used as a giant counterpart to Cheep Cheeps, and in some other games [[Porcupuffer]]s and [[Cheep Chomp]]s are as well.

These large-sized Cheep-Cheeps first appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures]]'' alongside the normal size. They reside in the [[Desert of Doubt]]'s first stage. The large Cheep-Cheeps charge at [[Link]], and can cause critical damage if they touch him.
In ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'', two abnormally-large Cheep-cheeps appear when [[Mario]] and [[Haru-ōji|Kibidango]] search for the [[Super Star|star]] underwater. The first one chases after the pair mistake an angler fish for the star. It takes the appearance of a giant flat fish that puffs itself up until it explodes into many smaller versions of itself that rapidly bounce around the screen, hitting Mario six times. The second one also chases after Mario and Kibidango manage to retrieve the star from a [[clam]], this time not as a flat fish. Mario and Kibidango swim away to a sunken ship. The Cheep-cheep rams the ship five times, causing it to also burst into smaller versions of itself, which do not hit Mario this time. This forces the sail down, making the ship begin to rise.
