Shinzan

Shinzan is a KWG-type Medarot that appears only in Medarot 5. It is the player's starting Medarot in the Kuwagata version, and is owned by the player's rival in the Kabuto version.

In the games

In the Kuwagata version, Koishimaru first finds Shinzan 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 Shinzan and the Medarotch were new models stolen from a nearby laboratory, but Koishimaru is given permission to keep them due to Shinzan's attachment to him. In the Kabuto version, the roles of Shinzan and Chrotojil are reversed. The two have distinct personalities when they speak in the story, which they keep regardless of which side they are on.
