Chavo

About him[]

El Chavo del Ocho is the main character of the TV show of the same nickname. El Chavo is an eight-year-old orphan. "Chavo" is a Mexican Spanish slang word for "kid"; Chavo's real name is not known, but in some episodes, he calls himself Chente, short for Vicente, after a friend who died in the orphan home in which he was abandoned. Chavo is usually enthusiastic, creative, and good-natured, but on the other hand, he is also rather naïve and very gullible. He is not particularly bright and is remarkably clumsy, often hitting Quico, Don Ramón and Señor Barriga with balls, shoes, hammers, bricks, chairs, and other objects. Despite being a hungry 8-year-old child, he seems to have incredible physical strength, since his punches can stun or even topple a full-grown man, mostly Don Ramón.

He is recognizable with his green hat, which has both sides hanging down. He wears a white-brown striped T-shirt, gold pants, and brown shoes. His front brown hair is seen out of the hat.

In the games[]

Obama RatFace Operation[]

He appears in the scene with Quico, hiding in his barrel. Obama calls his out and gives him a "McHam" sandwich, which he gladly eats and tosses out Quico's square ball.

Crazy Haunted House[]

Chavo was in the barrel, but as the postman told him that Quico and Chilindrina are in danger, he had to save them from the witch.

At the graveyard, he had to move carefully as he could see that the paper showed that the path is safe when following the arrows. He also grabbed a jar of vitamins and an arrow that were behind the tombstones. In a room that had a large hole, he had to use the witch's broom to fly and grab a flying sandwich. However, when he turned back, the broom started to stop near the edge of the cliff. He had to grab hold of the edge while the broom was falling in the pit. As he ate the sandwich, he became strong and could push the heavy wardrobe blocking the path. In the end, he defeated the witch. All of this adventure was actually a nightmare since he got woken up by Chilindrina and Quico. Then they scared him using scary masks.

Chavo and the Giant Sandwich[]

Chavo has to earn 30 pesos to buy the super-giant sandwich. But to earn the money, he has to be tricky, clever, and good.

In the beginning, Chavo helped the kitty that was stuck in a tree and took it to Mr. Prudencio. He also helped Chompiras by giving him a helmet that would protect him from the slaps by Botija. He helped Doctor Chapatin get his memory back and managed to get the canary into its cage for Ms. Florinda in Apartment 14. Chavo tricked Quico into throwing his two pesos in the well by wishing that Paty would kiss him. Chavo had kicked the ball towards Mr. Barriga, and when the landlord walked off, the chaos started with the two neighbors Mr. Ramon and Ms. Florinda. He helped get Popis get her doll Serafina. He bought the milk (and drank half) for Ms. Clotilde, the nice old lady in door 71. Chavo gave the tickets to Ms. Gloria at door 43, who would seduce Mr. Ramon; Chavo managed to get Mr. Ramon a date with the beautiful woman. He helped Chilindrina get her dog, Peluchin. He scared Paty with a skeleton so that her hiccups disappeared. He was given a kiss from her to show her gratitude as he fell. Chavo gave a pair of earmuffs to Chimoltrufia so that she could get some rest. He scared Chaparron and Lucas for a prank. Chavo placed his stuff outside the alley so that he could sell his beverages to the people. He had to dance an Indian dance so that the rain could fill the buckets with its water. He bought the fruit from a fruit seller so that his water became beverages. Chavo met Gonzales (the Inkagames winner) and got a squeezer so that he could squeeze the fruit in the water. He then sold the beverages to earn money in order to buy the giant sandwich. In the end, Chavo got his giant sandwich but then gave it to a poor child that was hungry. Chavo was then invited to a feast at Mr. Barriga's home and realized how nice it is if you give away something important to you.

He had to cross the graveyard again when he was going back to the house.
