They are found in many of the underwater levels in the game. They move very quickly through the water, tracing a short path back and forth within an area. They never remain still for more than a second. Chain-Saw Fish are quite aggressive, and won't hesitate to attack [[Wario]] if the creatures catch sight of him. Once they do, they will swim at high speed towards the protagonist, aiming to harm him with the revolving chainsaw. They can swim diagonally and horizontally, but not vertically. They can out-swim Wario if they happened to be swimming head to head. Wario can defeat the Chain-Saw Fish by striking the underbelly of the fish. They can also be destroyed by the flames of [[Sea Dragon Wario|Sea Dragon]] or [[King Dragon Wario]].
