Momonyan is a cat Yo-kai inspired by Momotarō, a Japanese fairytale. Momonyan has peach-pink fur with a pale white muzzle, chest, and paws. His inner ear, tail flames, and bell are light blue. He has black hair worn in a top knot with two tufts of bangs hanging loosely over a white headband depicting a peach on it. It wears a red and goldenrod jacket and teal pants over his gold belt. He carries a banner that says "Nippon ichi" (Japanese: 日本一,"Japan's best").
The player can befriend Momonyan by freeing him from the Crank-a-kai or Dream Wheel with a Wanderer Coin, which can be obtained as a reward for using StreetPass or as a Clu-T-fact memo in the Labyrinth of Legend in Blasters T.
He is required for the The Taronyan Trio Yo-kai Circle.

Etymology[]
"Momotarōnyan" and "Momonyan" is a combination of Momotarō and nyan.
His Wibble Wobble name, "Taronyan," is his Japanese name shortened as well, but differently.
Origin[]
Momonyan is based on Momotarō, a famous character of the eponymous fairytale.
Trivia[]
The Korean design of Momonyan's B Medal.
In Yo-kai Watch: Wibble Wobble, Momonyan was called "Taronyan." Despite this, Pheasanyan calls Momonyan "Momotaronyan" when the player befriends him in the game.
Momonyan's Soultimate was named "Treatocalypse" in Yo-kai Watch: Wibble Wobble, but it renamed to "Dumpling Dice" in Yo-kai Watch Blasters.
Momonyan is the one of the few Yo-kai to be redesigned in the Korean version:
His Korean B Medal has lacks his hair and banner.
In the Korean version of Yo-kai Watch: Wibble Wobble, the text on Momonyan's flag is translated from "日本一" (Japan's best) to "천하제일" (world's best). Strangely, this change was not done for the Korean version of Yo-kai Watch Blasters.
