Mokka

"Found in a curiosity shop by Principal Biscotti, Mokka is a dry and deadpan robot who wields powerful earth magic."

Mokka, also known as Latte (カフェラテ Kaferate), is an Ancient Element mage in Magical Vacation, and an Earth aligned mage in Magical Starsign. He is enrolled as a student at Will-O'-Wisp Academy after being found and bought by Principal Biscotti in a small curiosity shop.

Appearance
Mokka's appearance remains consistent in both Magical Starsign and Magical Vacation. He is mainly composed of a brown metal, possibly copper, bronze, or brass, and has many screws around his body. There are exactly six small ones and two large ones on his chest, and five on his head.

He also has quite a few "sectioned" parts where joints are, like on his legs and feet. He has three fingers on each hand, each composing of three silver joints, and are attached to a grey metal socket on each palm. Also on his arm are decorative indents in the metal plating.

He has one singular orange eye that rests on his bucket-shaped head. Also on his head are three gold or brass horn-like objects, two on either side, and one that is more bell-shaped on the very top of his head. It is unknown what the purpose of these objects are.

The only color differences in his sprite are from each game. In Vacation, his sprite is much lighter-colored, but in Starsign it is darker and more defined.

Personality
Mokka takes a very deadpan view to everything, though as the story progresses, appears to have a strong desire to be in a romantic relationship. He is often portrayed as sarcastic, and rather nihilistic in personality, while simultaneously taking the part of the logical member of the group. He can even be a bit stubborn and impatient. However, he is actually very kind and always works hard for his friends. If the protagonist is female, Mokka will confess that he has feelings for her during the Starfall Festival. It is unknown if he still retains them afterwards.

Magical Vacation
Mokka is an Ancient Robot bought in a curiosity shop buy Principal Biscotti. He was soon later enrolled as a student at the Will-O'-Wisp Academy, were he befriends the protagonist and the rest of the main characters.

Magical Starsign
The story opens with Mokka and friends in class waiting for their teacher, Miss Madeleine, who has been showing up late for the past few days. After her arrival, members of her class become suspicious of her recent behavior and decide to listen in on a conversation between her and Principal Biscotti, in which she announces that it is her duty to travel to Puffoon, the wind planet.

After her leave to Puffoon, the class begins to catch word of a rocket hidden in the school, and decide to follow her to the wind planet. Upon discovery of the rockets however, Lassi accidentally takes off in one, crashing on Erd. Mokka and the class decide to go after her.

After setting out to help Lassi, Mokka crashlands on Cassia, the water planet. He is then confronted by an unnamed assailant who supposedly knocked him unconscious and stealing his Battery Pack, or head, thus rendering him unable to function. It is up to the player to retrieve his battery pack from the otter who stole it in order to keep his house warm. After confronting the otter though, he claims he will return the battery pack if his toolbox key is returned to him.

After having the battery pack returned to him, Mokka is revived and joins the player on their quest to find Miss Madeleine.

Later during the course of the game, Mokka begins to malfunction. It is revealed that this is because his battery core has begun to run dry, and it needs to be recharged or else he will die.

Changes and Tune-ups
Mokka forgoes many changes and tune-ups throughout the Magical series, starting when Madeleine uses spare parts from eight other robots for repairs. He later ends up getting repurposed as an oven in the La Roche Tower, and soon later relinquishes some of his own parts to help get the Magical School Bus up and running, and in Magical Starsign he is beheaded by an otter for his battery back, and in the end he is repurposed into a Rocket ship by Lassi.

Stats
Mokka has horrendous MP stats and speed compared to the rest of the team, but he dishes and takes damage like a tank. It gets even better if you optimize him with the right equipment. Because he can shield weaker characters, dish out some heavy physical attacks and can occasionally get a good earth spell in, Mokka is best suited for the front row.

Mokka appears in the game as a trophy and as sticker #629, using his art from Magical Starsign. Like other Magical Vacation series trophies, Magical Vacation is omitted in his appearances.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Mokka appears in the game as spirit no. 1178. In his spirit battle, he is portrayed by R.O.B. on the Great Plateau Tower stage.
