The Chao from Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Adventure 2: Battle and Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut can also favor 'dark' and 'hero' sides as well as the default 'neutral' side which can lead to variations in visual evolution. When they hatch, they can be trained to have different attributes and emotional states. Ways of hatching them include snuggling the egg (the kindest way), throwing the egg at a wall (the Chao will obviously not like this) and of course, simply waiting for the egg to hatch on its own. For example, a Gold Egg is solid gold in color and will hatch a solid Gold Chao. Eggs other than those acquired in visiting a Chao Garden for the first time or mating are colored differently and reflect how the Chao will look. These statistics can be raised through proper raising, and will enable a Chao to do better in their competitions: Chao Racing and Chao Karate. During raising, Chao have statistics: Swimming, Flying, Running, Power and Stamina, as well as a number of other properties which aren't quite as obvious.

Chao-raising and the main Sonic games tie together in a number of ways items which are encountered in the main game can be used to raise Chao, collected Rings can be used to buy things for them, and several unlockable features are related to Chao. Making their first appearance in Sonic Adventure for the Dreamcast (both in the plot and in a Chao-raising aspect of the game) and later in Sonic Adventure 2, Chao have recently come to be a large part of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. The Chao are the good friends of Cream the Rabbit and Tikal the Echidna.

The word Chao is a pun on Chaos, a word commonly used in the Sonic series and which is why the word remains unchanged when plural. Chao are somewhat complex: they respond to stimuli, have moods, require food and can be loving or fearful. Their role in the games are to be raised by the player in mini-games, similar to many virtual pets. The Chao (チャオ?) are a species from the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
