The Kikis also appear as enemies in several other mini-games, some of which where the objective is to count the number of Kikis on the screen.

In Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games for the Wii, Kikis appear as enemies in the Individual and Team version of the Dream Alpine event. Here, Kikis throw bombs at the playable characters. In addition, colliding with a Kiki will knock the playable character over and slow them down temporarily.

In Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games for the Nintendo DS, Kikis are enemies during the spin segments of the Mario & Sonic Download Medley, Sonic Medley and Mario & Sonic Medley in the Ultimate Figure Skating event. Here, the Kikis must be defeated by the player.
Furthermore, in Adventure Tour, a Kiki can be found destroying a Chao's garden of flowers in Icepeak. To get rid of it, Daisy has to engage it in a mini-game called Chase off Kiki!, where the player must throw snowballs at it in order to deplete its HP. Once the Kiki is defeated, it will retreat through a gate that it leaves open behind it.
