Description[]
Erika is a member of the journalism club from the Riverview School, and aims to become a journalist when she grows up. Her best friend is Ikki.

In the games[]
Medarot 2 and Medabots (GBA)[]
Erika is a friend of Ikki that aims to become a reporter when she grows up, and recently bought a camera. In the beginning of the game Erika has a practice Robattle with Ikki to teach him the basics, and she published about Ikki's victory against The Screws in his first day as a Medafighter. Later, she investigates about a Medabot that is tickling girls (flipping their skirts in the Japanese version), and convinces Ikki to dress like a girl to help find the culprit, a member of the Rubberobo Gang. During the game she also does other investigations and is kidnapped by the Rubberobo Gang.
In this game, Ikki must trigger certain events in order to build a relationship with Erika. If succeeded, Erika will give him the Cat Medal at the final event.
At first Erika only has a Sailor-Multi, but later she also uses Pretty Prime. Sailor-Multi's level is low, though.

Erika is the reporter for the school's newspaper, the Riverview Review,[1] known in Japanese as the Ginjou Elementary School Newspaper (ギンジョウ小学校新聞) in Medabots[2] and the Amazake Newspaper (甘酒新聞) in Medabots Spirit.[3] She will do anything for a scoop, always looking for a story.

It is speculated that she has a crush on Ikki due to her jealousy when Ikki flirts with Karin and Nae. Her Medabot, Brass, is her camera girl.
