Buchinyan in Yo-kai Watch 2

To befriend Buchinyan, the player needs to save a Yo-kai Cam picture to the 3DS in Yo-kai Watch, then switch to Yo-kai Watch 2 and go to Mount Wildwood. Talk to Mister E. to receive a Select-a-Coin+. Use it on the Crank-a-kai and choose between Komasan, Noko, and Buchinyan. The coin can be received once a day for three days.

Selecting Buchinyan will make a cutscene play, where the player seemingly gets an empty capsule from the Crank-a-kai, only for it to pull in Jibanyan and Whisper, and ejecting Buchinyan a few seconds later. After giving the player their Medal, Buchinyan disappears, and Whisper and Jibanyan reappear, expressing discomfort over the fusion.
