These animals are found inside Badniks. Simply destroy the Badnik to release the Elephant inside, and then touch it to pick it up. When released, the Elephants have a green sphere around them, which disappears shortly afterwards. They are found in the following Action Stages:

• Lost World
• Red Mountain
• Twinkle Park

Upon entering a Chao Garden with an Elephant, it will leave the playable character and run around the garden. The Elephant will sparkle if it has not given them to a Chao in the garden. Should the player give an Elephant to a Chao, the Chao will embrace it, attaining its appearance and behavior and raising its stats according to the Elephant's. The Elephant will then lose its sparkle and disappear shortly after.
