Story

Tram and Poline's skill is shapeshifting which they use as their secret weapon in the circus. They were confident, but also naïve, because they actually have no rhythm. At the circus, they have to transform in time with the music. They grew flustered and their pride was hurt. Despite that, they have found their next goal. They take the challenge head-on^[1].

Tram in his human form appears in the epilogues of Remix 2 in Rhythm Heaven, where he appears to enjoy surfing. He also appears in the epilogues of Figure Fighter 3, mimicking the Muscle Doll's poses.

コーラスメン		Translation
	不思議ふしぎな魅力みりょくのキャラクターの多おおさでいえば、『リズム天国てんごく』の右みぎに出でる作品さくびんはそんなにない。たとえば「子孫しそんたち」「ウラおとこ」「わるもの」、ひねったのか、そのままなのか、わからない。また、「ミニ町人ちょうにん」「ラブさん」「トランとポリン」、かわいい、なんていうか、とてもかわいい。そんな中なかから今回こんかい、「コーラスメン」をどうぞ。	When it comes to having many mysterious and charming characters, there are not many works to the right of "Rhythm Heaven". For example, "Shison-tachi", "Mr. Upbeat", "Waru Mono", I don't know if they were twisted or have always been like that. Meanwhile, "Mini Chounin", "Love-san", "Tram and Poline" are cute, very cute. Please enjoy the "Chorus Kids" this time.

Trivia

Tram and Poline in their human forms appear in Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade) on the gender selection screen when the player's Flow is high enough to register in the leaderboard.
A common confusion among fans is pronouncing Poline's name as Pauline.
Thanks to his appearances in the epilogues for Remix 2 in Rhythm Heaven and Figure Fighter 3, Tram is one of the few characters to make an appearance in every game in the Rhythm Heaven Series.
