Season 5[]
In "Cheeks the Hamster", Chris activated Hamster Power to look for the Micro-XT power processing chips for the Creature Power Suits. In attempt to take a chip from Chris, a hamster unwittingly pulled Chris and itself into a river. Later, Chris learned from the hamster how to use his cheek pouches as a floatation device while swimming. As he climbed back onto land, he discovered that Cheeks had been taken by a red fox and alerted the crew. Chris soon found the last remaining chips and had Jimmy teleport them to Aviva, who then made a second Hamster Disc for Martin.
Later Martin activated and dug his way to the fox den where he was confronted by two fox kits. He stuffed Cheeks in his cheek pouches and made it back to the escape tunnel after dodging the kits' attacks. After this, Martin turned back to normal size and stored all his adventure gear in his cheek pouches, along with one of Jimmy's candy bars.
