Ricky

Ricky (Japanese: レイジ Reiji) is a self-proclaimed and a character of the day who appeared in Climbing the Tower of Success!.

In the anime
Ricky entered the Wishing Bell Festival contest along with, , , and Stephan. He was grouped with them in the first portion of the contest. He claims to be a psychic, but in reality, he was using his 's powers to get through most of the competition. Although, it was his cheating that helped the gang get through the quiz portion of the contest, since he used Elgyem to manipulate 's mind to get the right answer. He was the first to cross the finish line during the race across the lake portion because he used Elgyem's to simply float across.

During the dress-up and impersonation portion of the contest, Ricky was supposed to dress up as Officer Jenny while Elgyem was to dress up as. Again, he used Elgyem to make Miles think he looked exactly like her. He, Ash, and Stephan were last in the competition by the time they all had to climb the Mistralton Tower, all the while keeping their shaped candle lit. Ricky was the first to get to the top of the tower by use of Elgyem's Psychic again, but he was also the first to lose up there when a  blew out his Litwick candle with.

Ricky likes to believe his Elgyem's Psychic abilities are his own. He will even often make motions as if he is performing a move himself.

In the games
