Mr. Champion
Mr. Champion is a common sight at The Iron Rice Bowl of the Dumplings. He was named after the streak of white on his side that looks like a championship belt. He may be confused with his less freaky near-double, Tire Tracks.
The English-speaking community first became familiar with him in November 2024, but he has been visiting for a long time.
Behavior
Mr. Champion is a goofy creature who likes to stick his narrow head into the feeder and lap up kibble like a lizard. He seems to be friendly with Mr. Pikmin and has a mysterious habit of swapping places with Tire Tracks. He is often seen resting his head on the concrete the feeder rests on in the upper left corner. He also likes to wipe his face on the plastic covering the feeder and nearby plants.
Appearance
Mr. Champion has striking mackerel stripes, white shoulders, and a streak of white on his side that resembles a belt. His tail has a black tip. His fur is overall very glossy. His nose is pink with a white "flame" above it.
