The '''Chomby''' is a shy, plant-eating [[wikipedia:stegosaurus|stegosaurus]]-like [[Limited Edition]] Neopet who is most happy when munching on leaves and grasses.

Chombies naturally come from the prehistoric land of [[Tyrannia]], although many have ventured as far as the [[Lost Desert]] and [[Faerieland]].
The Chomby is a hefty Neopet - a single one can [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=7&id=81 shake the ground] on its own.

Chombies were released along with the discovery of Tyrannia. The first glimpse of the species came from an animation of a Chomby slowly eating away shrubbery at a cave entrace through the [[Ice Caves]].
