Blackholetchi (ブラックホールっち Burakkuhōrutchi) is a Gaiatchi character that debuted in Tamagotchi: The Movie, and later made his first virtual pet appearance in Tamagotchi On as an NPC.
Name Origin[]
Blackholetchi's name comes from Black Holes, astronomical bodies that are remains of massive stars that have collapsed upon themselves following a supernova explosion. A Black Hole's force of gravity at the event horizon is strong and dense enough to make escape futile for anything near it, even light.
Appearance[]
When awake, Blackholetchi takes the form identical to a massive, black squid-like creature with five tentacles, a large head, and a mouth with a giant purple swirl inside. When Blackholetchi is asleep, he takes the form of a giant, swirling black hole and will suck anything within range into his stomach unless he's woken up.
Personality[]
Despite its massive size, Blackholetchi is a gentle and understanding Tamagotchi that doesn't mean any harm. However, he's also very drowsy, and often doesn't realize the damage he causes until he's woken up.
On Virtual Pets[]
Tamagotchi On[]
If the user uses the telescope at the Starry Lab, Blackholetchi may occasionally appear in an animation where he accidentally sucks a UFO into his mouth, before a larger UFO appears and rescues it.
In Media[]
Tamagotchi: The Movie[]
Blackholetchi is first encountered asleep, accidentally starting to suck the rocket piloted by Mametchi and Tanpopo into his mouth. The group mistakes him for a legitimate black hole, but Mamehakasetchi hears the snoring coming from the center of the hole and realizes it's really Blackholetchi.
They attempt to wake up Blackholetchi by shouting at him using the speaker on the outside of the rocket, but a stray rock becomes lodged in it. Mametchi and Tanpopo are forced to go outside the ship and dislodge it, and are sucked into Blackholetchi in the process. With every Tamagotchi on the Tamagotchi Planet chanting for Blackholetchi to wake up, the Planet itself suddenly lets out a shout loud enough to wake him up. Upon awakening, Blackholetchi pulls Mametchi and Tanpopo out of him, apologizes for accidentally swallowing them, and sends them and the rocket back to the Planet.
Tamagotchi Official Shorts[]
Blackholetchi makes a cameo in "A Close Encounter in Between Time and Space" where he sucks up Mimitchi when she tries to connect to Mametchi. Mimitchi later wakes up, revealing the whole sequence as a dream.
