Appears in
The Sick Beats Doctor (バイキンはかせ?, Baikin Hakase) is a character who kills Viruses (バイキン?, Baikin) with forks to protect a yellow organism in Sick Beats in Rhythm Tengoku and Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
Story
The Sick Beats Doctor is known to everyone in the lab and is at the top of his field of virus extermination. He believes that "the side effects of medicine can be scary, too."[1]. His radio is indispensable as the groovy tunes help with curing diseases[2]. He is a devoted listener and submits messages to his favorite radio programs, despite that they've never been read by the DJ[3][4]. One time, his message did get read, in which the doctor ironically caught a cold, and asks the DJ to recommend a cure[5][6].
One day, he discovered bacteria that get into the groove when listening to music, for which he placed a radio on his desk[7]. He received a message from his assistant calling for help with a massive virus outbreak. These viruses interfered with the research, so he used a machine to stab them with tiny forks to get rid of them[8], which led to the production of a fantastic medicine.
On August 3, 2006, about five years after the doctor announced his new method for bacterial research in "Microbe Today", he and his students continued working day and night to catalog their newest data. While looking at a vial received from the mysterious Rhythm League, they discovered the Microbes[9][10].

Trivia
- The color of the virus determines how many hits it takes to kill completely. In Rhythm Tengoku, the normal Rhythm Game only features blue ones, which take one stab. The Endless Game introduces pink and black variants, requiring 2 and 3 hits respectively, which gradually add to the challenge. A single black virus appears in Remix 7, being the only time the non-blue viruses appear in a Remix in Rhythm Tengoku.
- In the Endless Game version of Sick Beats, the yellow blob produces random objects (increasing in variety and amount as time goes on) every single time a virus is stabbed. It does not do this anywhere else.
- In Mahō Tsukai, whenever the Wizard makes a mistake, he summons a monster which eats the flower instead of it blooming. This monster has a face which is eerily similar to that of a virus.
- In Wake-Up Caller, the moon may occasionally have the monster's face on it[11], which in turn makes it resemble a virus as well.
- The date mentioned in 小さないきもの報告書 (Microbe Report), August 3, 2006, is the release date for Rhythm Tengoku. While this text explicitly mentions the doctor in Minna no Rhythm Tengoku, his name was removed in all other languages, as Rhythm Tengoku was only released in Japan, and Sick Beats would not be localized until Rhythm Heaven Megamix, and as such, the reference would be lost.
- There is an unused description for the Rhythm Game in Rhythm Heaven Megamix, intended to be used in the Museum. This description gives the character a name in each language (listed below), however, his appearance in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate gives him a more generic name instead, except for the French and German versions where the unused name is used.
