Helmetchi is one of two secret characters, the other being the twin ants, FutagoAritchi. To obtain him, the user must start with a white egg. When Babymotchi becomes Imotchi, the user needs to feed it only candy, and ensure its weight is maintained at 40mg. When Imotchi becomes Mayutchi, the user needs to ensure that the temperature stays middling, never too hot or cold. 24 hours later, it will evolve back into Imotchi. During this time, the user needs to decrease and maintain its weight at 30mg. In 48 hours, it will evolve into another Mayutchi, where the same regulations apply. After a further 24 hours, the second Mayutchi will evolve into Helmetchi. Helmetchi wakes at 12 PM, sleeps at 11 PM, has a base weight of 80mg, and his special food is a mushroom.
