For anyone who's raising something like a Sonic or Shadow Chao that needs a "second evolution" to make it look just right, keep in mind that age is also a factor in your Chao's appearance. If you evolve your Dark-type Chao into a Run-type and then immediately load it up with green Chaos drives, it's not going to go red like Shadow. It'll still have the cyan stripes until it gets older. I usually wait until it's gone through breeding season at least once before trying to make it more like the character. To make the Shadow Chao easier, you can also just raise a two-toned red Chao. It'll have the red stripes by default.
Thank you for this information. Before my shadow chao even evolved for the first time, i rushed it to 99 running, after evolution i tried giving it more running and saw now changed, this continued even when i gave it a ton of flying/swimming and it still didnt change, i thought it was a conflict in some of the mods.
01:28 --me looking at the bookshelf where my GBA, my GBA to GCN cable and my copy of Phantasy Star ep 1&2 are sitting right now hearing how imposible it is to get right now. I was lucky to buy the PSO game for cheap years ago, everything gamecube related went crazy expensive a few years ago.
i actually learned how to mod from this channel so thanks for that and also thanks for this vid i needed help knowing the requirements for certain chao evos
If you're willing to put in the effort you can transfer save data between PC and GC chao data if you're willing to edit the hexadecimal code. I did this about 10 years ago and I have a Knuckles, Tails, and Amy chao in my GC memory card. You will need a homebrew wii to do this but it's possible! Edit: of if you're not crazy like me who wants it on console you should just play the PC version!
You forgot the Flicky Chao from Hero Flying. I don't blame you for forgetting the random birds & technically Spartoi was a famous chao from Sonic Chronicles that wasn't something you could just make in Adventure 2. I hope more stuff gets made for chao like you said. We could use Cream, Blaze, & Silver Chao. I wonder if Miku Chao exists yet? I never kept up with the mods & it's a cool funfact that Yellow Shadow Android chao existed 4 Years before it did. Something cool I expected from the modding community was new types of Chao Balls like a flower. I actually remember the rumors that Sonic Heroes would add 2 New Types of Chao from 20 Years Ago with Rose Chao being leaked with an Amy Chao with a flower ball. I miss my childhood so much these days!
There is a guide on the Chao Island website, I didn't cover it here since it is quite involved and would take up the majority of the video. I believe that you need a gameboy link cable and a gameboy advance aswell to get the tails chao. It is a lot of work.
Not that much work, but you need Sonic Advance with Tiny Chao Garden and the mentioned GBA and cable. In game if I remember correct you need may 30 min gameplay to get a specific mission. After it, you can download the chao in the TCG (with putting the cable in the third controller slot for some reason 😅)
Hey choa, can you make a tutorial video on how to use the chao attire mod? I've tried giving my character chao their shoes but it defaults to amy's. I've tried to get help on the game banana page with no luck for a month.
@@Choa just tried it and it didnt work :( it dosen't let me configure anything.. thanks tho. if you have any other solutions that would be great. im just gonna redownload the mod rn Update: no luck.. it still says it can't be configured..
How do I make em age faster? And btw, do you upgrade their stats using mods for the easy way, or you go by the hardway (giving animals and chaos drives through normal way or infinit glitch)?
Ok so i have a sonic chao already..and its already maxed out on the run ability drives, my question is, if i keep giving the other drives to it..will it still be a sonic chao?
No. It’ll change. If you give it swim or Fly it’ll be a run+swim or run+fly. If you give it just power it’ll turn to a regular run then give it more power it’ll be a run/power. It’s confusing but swim and fly can’t be hybrids neither can run and power. They cancel each other out.
Great video explaining on the character chao, Choa! Been wanting to reset raising Chao recently and have decided to start in SADX and SA2B (US and JP saves) from scratch. It was relatively easy to get the demo disc, which I get my hands on 3 character Chao on my JP save of SA2B. I do have some questions though. Are the character Chao considered Chaos Chao? For the Tails Chao in Phantasy Star Online for the Gamecube, is it just the Plus version that you can get the Tails Chao, or any version of Episode1&2? Was just curious about this as I know the Plus version does sell for far more than the vanilla Episode1&2. Chao UA-cam channels like yours and SapphireChao has brought a renewed interest in Chao raising for me. I'll definitely check more of your videos when I need to know something about Chao.
The website Chao island might be of help. It contains information about Chao, raising, animals, obtaining the character chao, tiny chao garden, and such. It even has some tools for modifying Chao's on DC, GC, and PC (funny how those kinda rhyme lol).
there is a proper tikal chao mod in gamebanna and a bunch of other characters i have yet to get one in my vannila game cause i lost my save file for the 4th time and this will be the last time
I always wanted character chao and type chao to be different never liked sonic being hero neutral or shadow speed dark. Or the Raela and Nights Chao being flying chao.
I had the idea that Chaos Chao who are types end up evolving as Character Chao in a new Chao Garden. Hero/Fly = Cream or Silver Hero/Run = Blaze Neutral/Swim = Big Neutral/Fly = Tails Neutral/Run = Sonic Neutral/Power = Knuckles Neutral/Normal = Amy Dark/Swim = Vector(?) Dark/Fly = Rouge Dark/Run = Shadow Dark/Power = Omega Not sure how that would impact Neutral/Run, Dark/Run, Neutral/Fly and Dark/Fly's appearance changes, though, since they are based off of characters.
Make sure it’s the version that actually gives you the tails Chao because there’s 2 different versions of PSO. The cheaper one doesn’t, the more expensive one does
Ive actually tried so many times to get a chaos chao and it never works lmao, I did just recently grind up an all s chao and was planning on keeping it to get all s chaos of specific colours and then make an all s chaos chao but its hard man
How I got my Talls chao I just modded my Nintendo Wii and downloaded the ROM for phantasy Star online episode 1 and 2 and played up to the part of the story where I can download tiny Chao garden and get the Talls chao
maybe a dumb question but is this for sonic adventure 2 modern (the one on steam?) i’ve only played on gamecube and recently got back into it on steam but saw that some colors weren’t in pc
The ones that require mods require the steam version, but the ones that don’t can be got normally (except knuckles and Amy, who you can technically get but are likely too hard to find) Some of the colors (like shiny two tones) got messed up in the steam port. There’s mods like Chao World extended that fix them.
@@TheAmazingAnimator yes download the chao world extended mod and beat the new challenge races, you will get an award that gives immortality to the chao that wins the last race

That Tails Chao doing a swim was the most precious thing I've ever seen.
The character chao are so adorable ❤ i really like them a lot :)
the chaos sound so cute.
Maybe by merging the Chaos Chao body with Sonic Chao spikes, and the Werehog feet, we could get a makeshift werehog.
1:04 with some of the colors matching the Shadow androids in the Multiplayer Mode of Shadow the hedgehog
For vanilla metal sonic, make a sapphire run/swim chao for the rounded out spikes
i actually learned how to mod from this channel so thanks for that and also thanks for this vid i needed help knowing the requirements for certain chao evos
going back 2 school made me upsetty spaghetti... thankfully this video made my week better. Thanks Choa.
Cant wait for the eggman chao
Is it weird I like how that Tails in an Amy dress looks? They’re strangely cuter than both combined
I'm currently getting all the achievements in sonic 06 and hot damn it got me in a sonic mood. Really want to try this game out
ROUGE FANS SOUND OFF LETS GOOOO
Love your content bro, keep it up.

You can easily get a tails chao “legit” easily If you load up phantasy star or the demo disc back ups from a soft modded GameCube or a modded Wii
Race metal in the warthog feet? Idk what that is and how to obtain it
I found a copy of phantasy star online for £28
