Master Sharkie Chan (シャッキー・チェン Shakkī Chen, 17-49) is a legendary Fist Sage who is a grand master of the Fierce Beast Shark-Fist (激獣シャーク拳 Gekijū Shākuken) style that relies on a hard body and uses twin swords.
Biography[]
He appears as an anthropomorphic Great White and tends to cry when emotional. Sharkie's catchphrase is "Sharkin" (シャッキン Shakkin). Sharkie Chan lived on the isolated Aozame Island, becoming its first sumo champ, until the Gekirangers arrived with Sharkie amazed by Jan's skills in the "canoe race" test he set up (which Jan won). Jan soon became Sharkie's first pupil, with the two instantly getting along as Jan called his teacher "Shark" (鮫 Same). However Dokariya's interference and GekiShark's sudden attack left Sharkie to feel unfit to train others, furthered by Bat-Li and Elehung's criticisms, forcing him to renounce Jan as his student. However, after being framed by Dokariya of attempting to kill Sha-Fu, Sharkie's spirits were lifted by Jan defending Sharkie's honor as a Beast Fist Master and Sha-Fu approving him as a true mentor. Sharkie was originally the holder of the Ikigimo until he lost it when a tsunami hit his island home and the item itself came into the possession of a young celebrity named Alice.
When he fights Rio and Mele, he says, "There is Sharkin! while training. The doing your best Shark-Fist, Sharkie Chan!" (シャッキーン!の中に修行あり。とにかく頑張るシャーク拳 シャッキー・チェン! Shakkīn! no naka ni shugyō ari. Tonikaku ganbaru Shākuken, Shakkī Chen!).
