Befriend

Yo-kai Watch

Tanbo rarely appears under vending machines/cars and in trash cans near Sunshine Station (Blossom Heights).

Yo-kai Watch 2

Tanbo can be rarely found on the 3rd floor of the school (check the Library or the Music room). He can also be freed from the Crank-a-kai with a Red Coin in the past as well as through the gates of whimsy.

Quotes

  • Befriended: "YEE-haw! That was awesome! You! Be my friend!"

  • Being traded: "Need a ride? I'm by your side! C'mon now. Let's be friends!"
  • Receiving food (favourite): "Ah, nutritious!"
  • Receiving food (normal): "It's all right..."
  • Receiving food (disliked): "Don't need that."

Etymology

  • "Sakigakenosuke" combines sakigake (魁, "charging ahead") and suke (助, common ending for male names).
  • "Tanbo" comes from tan, and is possibly a corruption of tan boy.
