In the games
Medarot 1
The Chick Seller can be found near Hikaru's house. When talked to, he demonstrates unusual awareness of the RoboRobo Gang's activities and current events.
During the City Tournament, he is found at the Local Shrine, selling Hell Phoenix's part set at a discount, or in Medarot Perfect Edition, a Medarot with a random set of parts, pooled from Coffinbat's, Hell Phoenixs, Volume 10's (arms only), Samurai's (head only), or King Pharaoh's sets.
In the ending, the Chick Seller directs two Select Corps officier to arrest Taiyo and briefs Hikaru, congratulating him on his deeds and advising him to keep the details of his adventures a secret to the public. After this, the Chick Seller's role in the ending depends on Hikaru's romantic points values with his two potential love interests:
- If Hikaru fails the requirements for both Kirara and Nae, the Chick Seller will run up after Kirara rejects Hikaru at the Harbor Town andd gift him a "Blue Chick" as a consolation prize. Having the Blue Chick lets Hikaru Robattle him in the post-game.
- If Hikaru meets the requirements for Kirara but not Nae and rejects Kirara's advance in the ending, the Chick Seller will quip that "There's always a bigger catch", after which the ending credits roll.
In the post-game, the Chick Seller returns to his usual location near Hikaru's house and can be Robattled if Hikaru has the Blue Chick. He uses a trio of female Medarots with highly leveled Medals.
In Medarot Perfect Edition, he is given additional dialogue in the ending more clearly establishing to be a special agent, as in the Manga version of the story.

In the anime
The Chick Seller is a recurring character in the first anime series, starting in the first episode where he gives a speech to Ikki that inspires him to rescue Arika and face The Rockers head-on, leading to his acquisition of Metabee. Though simply trying to hawk his wares, the Chick Seller's speeches are invariably taken by the characters to as inspirational words of widsom.

Notes
- In Medarot 1, the Chick Seller has a different sound effect from other NPCs when spoken to, ressembling a bird's chirp.
