Under the influence of the [[girl]], the monkeys change their appearance multiple times along with her. The monkeys [[Monkey (Tap Trial 2)|bring their A game]] in [[Tap Trial 2]], changing their appearance once again. During one segment in [[Remix 7 (GBA)|Remix 7]], the monkeys get replaced with {{Nihongo|Buta-san|ブタさん|Mr. Pig}}<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n08/brij/chara/secret.html キャラクターアルバム もろもろ] (Character Album Various)</ref>. The monkeys return in [[Songbird Remix]], wearing bird-themed hats. The sprites of the monkeys appear significantly taller than their artwork in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]''.

The {{Nihongo|Monkey|SALU|SALU}} replace the monkeys mentioned previously in [[Tap Trial]]. Like the other monkeys, these ones like to tap dance. One of them is a DJ who plays at night and on the weekends, relieving the stresses of young people with his energetic selections. He also hosts a radio show as {{Nihongo|[[Rhythm Shiryō-Shitsu#とあるラジオ番組 (A Certain Radio Program)|DJ SALU]]|DJ SALU|DJ SALU}}. He seems to have a lot of life experience, as he was brash as a teenager<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n08/brij/chara/stage06.html キャラクターアルバム ステージ6] (Character Album Stage 6)</ref>. Yellow versions of this monkey appear in [[Live]] as part of the [[Drum Samurai's Band]].

In [[Police Call]], inputting the code word {{Nihongo|BIRDS}} brings up audio of the monkey attempting to play [[Tambourine]] with a [[The Huebirds of Happiness|Huebird]]. The Huebird keeps ending every pattern with the squawk call from [[Flock Step|its own Rhythm Game]], so the monkey eventually finishes a pattern with the same squawk call so that the Huebird can correctly follow before the call ends. A {{Nihongo|Rhythm Monkey}} Hat, based on the monkey from [[Tambourine]], appeared as one of the unlockable [[miiwiki:Outfit (StreetPass Mii Plaza)|outfits]] in ''[[miiwiki:StreetPass Mii Plaza|StreetPass Mii Plaza]]''.{{clear}}

They keep the time on the Monkey Watch products. The player, who is one of the monkeys, rides the watch's clock hand and "high fives" the other monkeys as they pass by them. There are also ones which high five on the off-beat, who look like purple versions of the [[Monkey (Tap Trial 2)|monkeys from Tap Trial 2]]. A single Small Monkey also rides in a hot air balloon at one point. In [[Remix 2 (Wii)|Remix 2]], the Small Monkeys are high-fiving on a giant, [[wikipedia:Big Ben|Big Ben]]-esque clock, suggesting these are the size of a normal monkey.

The purpose of the Monkey Watch as a product is to make the user happy while looking at it, as the [[Ad Copy|ads]] claim it to be "medically impossible" to frown after doing so, citing "We asked some science guys about it!" as proof. Using Monkey Watch continuously may make the monkeys tired, so it is suggested users to give them rest and the occasional banana for more accurate timekeeping. It is never claimed to be useful for time management however, and can cause people to forget about time and stare at the cute monkeys<ref>"My parents bought me a monkey watch when I started high school. The monkeys are so cute that I forget about time and just stare at them. Kind of useless as a watch, isn't it?" ~ [[Monkey Watch (Rhythm Item)|Monkey Watch]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>, which can lead to them being late<ref>"I'm so sorry I'm late! It was the monkeys' fault!" ~ [[Try Again]] epilogue to [[Monkey Watch]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''</ref>. When the watch itself gets worn out, it is fixed by replacing the monkeys themselves<ref>"Nova went out shopping after lunch. Recently, her Monkey Watch had worn out so she went to get the monkeys changed." ~ [[Bossa Nova#Endless Game|Bossa Nova]], ''[[Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise]]'' (English)</ref>. [[Mr. Upbeat (character)|Mr. Upbeat]] also seems to use the Monkey Watch as a therapist<ref>"Do you ever have problems like this? Do people just look at you and assume that you're into, I dunno, copying what people do?" "Oookii oook-ook!" "Right, right. My therapy is about me and my problems, not you." ~ [[A Musical Term]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''</ref>.{{clear}}
