Chomp Link was one of Max Steel's new enemies introduced in Season 2. He was a purple Stinger Ultralink who bonded with a Venus fly-trap. He was a member of the small group of Ultralinks in charge of subjugating Earth alongside with Metal Elementor and Ultimate Elementor. Due to Chomp's constant defeats at the hands of Max Steel, he was thrown in the space. Chomp Link debuted in Ultralink Invasion Part One and was voiced by Sam Vincent.
History[]
Season 2[]
Ultralink Invasion Part One[]
During a meteor shower, a squadron of four Ultralinks were sent by Makino to Miles Dread, and after providing their link slaves, the stinger Ultralink linked with the Venus fly-trap, creating Chomp Link.
Alongisde with Blast Link and Prism Link, Chomp went to Copper Canyon city to cause havoc and chaos, which caught Maxwell McGrath and Steel's attention. While Chomp was about to eat a woman with his gigantic mouth, Max suddenly appeared and attacked him, also rescuing the citizen in the process. Shortly after, Blast and Prism appeared and Chomp grabbed Max with his elastic hands and tossed him the wall. Afterwards, Max activates Turbo Speed Mode and clone it with Turbo Clone Mode and manages to temporarily take down Chomp and Prism, but not Blast. C.Y.T.R.O. eventually arrives and presents Max to the Turbo Lash, which he uses to attack Chomp. The Ultralink is later on defeated by C.Y.T.R.O. with his brand new wrecking ball, which easily defeated them with one single attack.
After N-Tek's forces arrived, Dread released the fourth Ultralink, who did not bonded with anything. Chomp, along with his brothers, escaped although Dread's master plan was working the way he wanted.

Abilities[]
- Linking Abilities: Like other Ultralinks, Chomp is able to bond with a host and enhance their capabilities, turning them into a weapon of mass destruction.
- Superhuman Strength: Chomp is stronger than an average individual.
- Superhuman Durability: Like other Ultralinks bonded with a link slave, Chomp is highly durable, being capable of withstanding multiple blows of Max's Turbo Speed Mode continuously.
- Elasticity: Chomp's body is extremely elastic, mainly his arms.
- Florakinesis: Due to the fact that Chomp is bonded with a Venus fly-trap, he is able to control certain elements of the earth environment, such as vines.
- Plant Whip: Chomp is able to form an elastic whip through his hands.
- Regeneration: Chomp is capable of regenerating his limbs in case they are lost in battle. If one of them is cut, he can still control it and make it a part of his body once again.
- Giant Mouth: Chomp's mouth possesses multiple powers, such as:
- Dome Creation: Chomp can create a dome made out of vines by releasing several brown seeds on the ground.
- Goop Generation:: He can release a green, sticky goop from his mouth that can poison and confuse the adversary during a small period of time. Such ability was only seen in Ultralinks Attack.
- Toxic Bites: Chomp can inflict harm on his enemies by biting them with his toxic mouth.
Weaknessess[]
- Energy Core: Like all Ultralinks, Chomp's weak spot is located on the Ultralink on his forehead. It if hit by something or someone, Chomp will instantly faint.
- Vulnerability to Ultralink Hunter's Weapons: Since Chomp is an Ultralink, he is vulnerable to every weapon that the Ultralink Hunters can use to un-link them.
Etymology[]
The word "chomp" means munch or chew vigorously and noisily something, making a reference to Chomp's large mouth inherited by the Venus fly-trap, while "link" coems from the alien race Ultralinks.
Appearance[]
In his Ultralink form, he is a purple Stinger Ultralink. Stinger Ultralinks can be distinguished by their round body, the salient shape on the head, spiky arms and mainly the large sting.
After he bonded with the Venus fly-trap, the Ultralink generated a large body made out of the same material as its link slave. Chomp Link possesses a large mouth and his Ultralink is located on the center of his forehead, where his eye should be. His body is green with pointy leaves and brown vines in the chest to the thighs. He has large hands made out of brown vines with four fingers each and also brown feet made out of the same vine, having three toes.
Chomp's design is also quite unique, since he was the only on the Ultralink trio that actually had a mouth, hands and fingers and toes.

Chomp had two action figures released in 2014 - one released worldwide and the other being exclusive to Latin American countries. Chomp Link was a 6-inch action figure released on the first half of 2014, which closely matched the character's appearance on the animated series. Capture Claw Chomp Link (later on marketed as Chomp Elementor Crusher) was a 12-inch action figure in which the character opened its mouth to reveal a monstrous capture claw and featured an elastic whip on his left arm.

Trivia[]
- Chomp Link was voiced by Sam Vincent, who voices various characters from the Max Steel series.
- He is the second character to be called by "nature boy" by Max Steel, the first being Extroyer.
- He gets scared when Metal Elementor gets nervous.
- Chomp Link is a fan of the song that Max, Kirby, and Sydney played for a concert in Full Metal Racket. In the same episode, when Max was singing in the band, he confused him with Max Steel and also called the suit that he was wearing "a new Turbo Mode".
- He isn't able to eat Max's cafeteria food as shown in Journey to the Center of Copper Canyon.
- Chomp's arms and legs are notably disproportionate, which can explain why he isn't fast as his comrades.
- Despite Chomp does not present Elemental Manipulation and he manifests Florakinesis instead, he is considered an Elementor character by the toy line, as the Spanish translation of the Capture Claw Chomp Link toy is "Chomp Elementor Triturador", which could be translated in English as "Chomp Elementor Crusher".
