Name Origin[]
Kuchitamatchi's name comes from kuchi (口) meaning "mouth" or "lips", and tama (球) meaning "ball" or "round".

Personality[]
Kuchitamatchi is an adolescent Tamagotchi which isn't so well cared for. He can be a little mischief maker at times. This Tamagotchi is always kind and gentle.

On Virtual Pets[]
Tamagotchi (Generation 1)[]
Kuchitamatchi is a teen who evolves from Marutchi with below average to poor care. If the Discipline meter was 50% or less when it evolved, it will start off with an empty Discipline meter and make four calls before it evolves. If the Discipline was 75-100%, it will start off with 50% and make two calls. Kuchitamatchi wakes at 9 AM, sleeps at 9 PM, and has a base weight of 20.
If Kuchitamatchi started with 50% Discipline, it can evolve into Kuchipatchi with full Discipline and above average to perfect care, Nyorotchi with average care, or Tarakotchi with bad care. If it started off with 0% Discipline, its evolutions are limited to Nyorotchi and Tarakotchi.
Tamagotchi Connection Version 3[]
Kuchitamatchi is a gender-neutral child that can appear on any generation except the first, if one or both parents are of a higher tier. It shares this distinction with Mohitamatchi.
Kuchitamatchi sleeps from 8 PM to 9 AM, likes Cherries, dislikes Hamburgers, and has a base weight of 10lbs.
Tamagotchi Connection Version 4.5[]
Kuchitamatchi is a gender-neutral child character that can evolve from Tsubutchi. With 0-2 care misses in both or either category (mental or physical), it will always evolve into an Ura Meme-type teen, but with 3 or more care misses in a specific category, it has a 50% chance of evolving into an Ura Kuchi-teen.
If one of its parents were Oyajitchi or a universal group adult, giving Kuchitamatchi good care will cause it to evolve into Hashitamatchi or Hikotchi if it is a boy, and Ichigotchi or UFOtchi if it is a girl.
Kuchitamatchi shares the same base weight, sleep times and favorite/least favorite foods as the Version 3.

It shares this distinction between Mohitamatchi, and is most likely to evolve into a good care teen, with the exception being from a slightly lower-tier marriage and given 3 or more care misses in both categories.
It shares its base weight, sleep times and favorite foods from the Tamagotchi Connection Version 3.

| Went home |
| "It was cool hanging around your planet. One Earthling said I looked like an orange with lips. That made me laugh! As an orange, I have great ap-PEAL. Thanks for the food -- shrimp is great!" |
| "Hello. I'm sorry I had to leave before I gave you a big, wet smacky kiss. You may not be too sorry about that." |
| "When I was living in your computer, I liked to look out from the monitor and see your stuff. You have some cool things! I wanted to try on your clothes. For that, though, I guess I'd need a human body." |
| "You know, I really don't see why I had to come here to Planet Tamagotchi. I thought you were doing a great job of raising me! Of course, they say I'm too easy-going. But if you're going to go, why not go easy?" |
| "I love to run, so I've run away - all the way back back to Gotchi. (And when your legs are as short as mine, that's a lot of running!) Thanks for the food." |
| Sent home |
| "So you pushed the button to send me home. That's cool. Thanks for taking care of me for a while -- I liked being your pet. Some people say I'm happy-go-lucky. Well, I went and I'm happy -- that's lucky!" |
| "You know what? You sent me home just when I was going to show you all the tricks I can do. For example, when I turn my lips to the side, I do a great impression of a turkey drumstick! See ya later, space invader!" |
| "Okay, I didn't mind being hungry. I didn't mind not playing either. I didn't even mind being sick. But I do mind being sent home early." |
Tamagotchi Town[]
Kuchitamatchi evolves from Marutchi if it has four or more stress. Akin to the original virtual pet, the adult Kuchitamatchi evolves into depends on its quality of life, with higher stress levels resulting in unhealthier adults. Unlike the virtual pets, Kuchitamatchi is capable of evolving into any of the possible adult characters or straight to Oyajitchi and Bill - Oyajitchi with 10 to 13 stress and Bill with 14 or more stress.
If lured into another kind of block by food after waking up on the day it is due to evolve, Kuchitamatchi will evolve into Risutchi if lured into a mountain block, Nessietchi lured into an ocean block or Kumatchi if lured into a forest block.
