Chrotojil (クロトジル) is a KBT-type Medarot that appears only in Medarot 5. It is the player's starting Medarot in the Kabuto version, and is owned by the player's rival in the Kuwagata version.
In the games
In the Kabuto version, Koishimaru first finds Chrotojil disassembled along with a Medarotch and medal inside a large tree at the Shijimi shrine. He takes the Medarot and Medarotch with the intention of returning them to their original owner, but is forced to activate it in a battle with Hikoo shortly after, due to his own Medarotch being broken. Later, it is revealed that Chrotojil and the Medarotch were new models stolen from a nearby laboratory, but Koishimaru is given permission to keep them due to Chrotojil's attachment to him.
In the Kuwagata version, the roles of Chrotojil and Shinzan are reversed. The two have distinct personalities when they speak in the story, which they keep regardless of which side they are on. The game 「Medarot 5」has an opening with Indian ink"Bokujyu"、which is written 墨汁 in Kanji. Split the kanji 墨 to two Kanji and you'll read it 黒("kuro") and 土("to" in one way of Japanese pronunciation). Read the Kanji 汁 "Jiru" and we know the name Chrotojil comes from 墨汁.
In the manga
In the manga version, Koishimaru finds Chrotojil in a similar way, but without a medal. Instead he uses his own Kabuto medal named Omeda, which was given to him by his father along with a Medarotch so that he would have a friend to talk to. Having only been used in a Medarotch, Omeda has no battle experience and is forced to fight for the first time against Hikoo's Shinzan.
Oh, and "Omeda" is a word made from the Japanese word "Dameo", meaning a man who couldn't do anything right. The word was used as a nickname for one of the main characters in the Japanese drama "Oretachi-no-Tabi", played by Ken Tanaka.
