Risukuma is an older student at the school in Puyo Puyo 7 and is a former science club member. He is the classmate of Ringo and Maguro.
Risukuma's name is a play on words. His name is a contraction of risu and kuma, which literally means Squirrel bear. His form in Mini Puyo Fever shows evidence for this, giving him a squirrel tail. His name is also a portmanteau of risuku and kuma, where risuku is probably referring to his mannerisms and back story.

History
Puyo Puyo 7
Risukuma makes his first appearance in Puyo Puyo 7. Three months before the events of the game, the science club room blew up after an experiment went wrong; he is now in the middle of renting the physics club. The explosion apparently caused Risukuma to become madly obsessed with love, which is evident in even his attack phrases. He also uses his mad scientist experiments in his attacks as well. Risukuma also tells Amitie that she can "touch him all she wants". The story mode in Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary can be related to this, where he becomes a counselor.
In this game, Ecolo attempted to take control of Risukuma's body ala Arle but has failed to do so.
He replaces Onion Pixy in this game, as evidenced by his dropset and character.
Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary
Risukuma appears in the introduction of Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary. After an experiment blew up, he, along with Ringo, Maguro, and Ecolo are sent to Primp Town.
According to the Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary official website, the "Unscientific Matter Detector" beeped at him, showing that he is not scientific. After that, he exploded a flask, and broke the "Unscientific Matter Detector."
