The devices take care of the virtual pets that see Sora and Kairi, which evolve depending on how they are raised by fans. Notably, it's been reported that the Tamagotchis have over twenty characters including the likes of Axel, Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Donald Duck, Terra, Riku, Aqua, Roxas, and much more.
