Chiwawa

"Chiwawa" by Wanko Ni Mero Mero is featured on, , (for the Nintendo Switch),  and.

Classic
The dancer is a woman with pink hair. She wears some cube and oval headbands, a yellow shirt with some chihuahua plush heads along with a square-pattern skirt that is shaped similar to a Rubik's cube, some yellow and red spotted legging socks, and some black high heels with leg straps. At some points of the routine, the coach turns black and white. The dancer appears to be a paper cutout, as she seemingly peels off of the background revealing her to be flat and completely white at the back.

Barbie Version
The coach is a female that looks like Barbie. She has blond hair tied in a long ponytail with a pink headless cap, a pink crop top with the word Barbie written on it in several places, a golden necklace, a violet fingerless glove, purple tight pants and a pair of pink sneakers.

Classic
The background switches between pink, blue, orange and green, with flowers, hearts and sandwich ingredients in a monochromatic color scheme in the background. The word "Chiwawa" appears sometimes when it is said. Multiple Chihuahuas appear in most of the backgrounds. At the beginning there are red, yellow, pink and purple flowers and the dancer appears to be walking a Chihuahua. It changes to a background with Chihuahuas and dog bowls in the background. The Chihuahuas sit down and touch their noses with their tongues at certain points. Near the beginning of the verses the background switches between a background with pipes with the dancer in a monochromatic color scheme coming out of them and cups with Chihuahuas coming out of them. Very random and usually animal-related objects appear during the chorus, such as hotdogs, carrots, rabbits and a gumball machine with dog toys dropping out of it. It appears that one of the Chihuahuas has cucumbers over its eyes and is singing into a microphone. At the beginning of the second verse and the bridge there are cats coming out of a photocopier; The second time they are coming out in sandwiches. There are also bowls of noodles flying around; at one point the dancer in a monochromatic color scheme is riding on them. The last time she rides on them her face is replaced by I Gotta Feeling 's. Near the end the background also contains dog bones as well as hearts and stars also in a monochromatic color scheme. The entire environment appears to be made of paper. At the beginning and end there is also a Chihuahua wearing glasses that have the coach from Built For This on one of the lenses.

Remastered by Barbie Version
The background is a dollhouse based on Malibu Dreamhouse play-set from Barbie life in the Dream-house. At the start, a chiwawa pops out of a TV and appears several times during the routine. The coach teleports herself with a flash effect to various rooms of the house, such as a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom, with furniture that shakes to the beat of the song. Before the chorus starts, the coach is teleported to a moving lift that carries her up to the roof, and then she dances in front of a background that is mostly recycled from the Classic routine, but it also contains new elements, such as floating tea set items.

In the bridge, the house becomes smaller and the coach dances near it, with lots of cartoony cats around her.

At the end of the song, the coach is in front of the house and, after the final Gold Move, she is seen riding a car with a chihuahua sitting on her left.

Chiwawa has a Mashup with the theme Geeks, which can be unlocked with 1000 Mojo Coins (or 20 Mojo Coins for the Wii). It features nerdy dancers. It is exclusive to Wii/eighth generation consoles.

 * The remastered alternate for the song is likely due to the song and routine being used in Barbie Video Game Hero. Dance battle of chiwawa is the last level that Barbie need to play in order to beat the virus.
