BasicsEdit

Chao Racing involves a group of Chao, usually eight, attempting to reach one end of the course from a designated starting point. More difficult courses are longer and the competing Chao have stronger stats to match.

Stat EffectsEdit

• Swim: This allows Chao to swim faster and more effectively in water areas.
• Fly: Higher flight stats allow a Chao to fly farther and faster and avoid more obstacles.
• Run: Chao run along the ground faster at higher speeds.
• Power: This lets Chao climb cliff faces faster and shake trees quicker.
• Stamina: More stamina lets a Chao run longer. Also, a quick speed burst can be given by hitting A at the cost of some stamina.

Non-Visible StatsEdit

There are two stats that cannot be seen on the Chao's list of stats. These are:

• Intelligence: Chao that have attended more kindergarten classes will solve puzzles faster and are more likely to get them right the first time. Also, any animal with a silver lining and backdrop when it is picked up (such as the skull-dog) will increase this stat, and may also have a special side effect on the Chao. For example, the skull-dog allows the Chao to wear on object on its head, such as a pot, tree stump, or wool hat.
• Charisma: Playing with the Chao will increase the charisma stat or lower it, depending on how the Chao is raised. Any animal with a golden lining and backdrop, like the Phoenix, will increase this stat, and again may have a special side effect on the Chao. For example, if a Chao is given many dragons, it may spew fire for fun while lazing about the Chao Garden.

ObstaclesEdit

• Trap door: These show up randomly when a Chao runs over the designated section, costing time as they pull themselves out.
• Jack-in-the-box: All Chao run into these in certain races and must open them to proceed. If the jack springs out, the Chao will faint and lose time. The appearance of the jack is a random occurrence.
• Trees: At tree patches, Chao must shake down a nut and eat it to continue. Eating speed is the same for all Chao.
• Matching puzzle: The Chao must present an item to the screen that matches the one shown.
