The story is about a boy who accidentally squishes a frog and now the frog's spirit lives on in an imprint on Hiroshi's shirt. Hamilton also bears an almost identical appearance to Hiroshi. Also, Hamilton's Croagunk maybe a reference to the frog, known as '''Pyonkichi''', because it did spend a lot of time on the front of his shirt.

Hamilton (Japanese: ヒロキ Hiroki, タクヤ Takuya) is the character of the day in Cream of the Croagunk Crop! of the Pokémon anime. He was the defending champion of the Croagunk Festival in Pastoria City.

Hamilton first comes off as an arrogant boy. Brock overheard Hamilton talking about a marriage with Nurse Joy. Angered, Brock interrupts the conversation saying that he won't let him marry Nurse Joy. Joy then corrects him and tells him that Hamilton wants his Croagunk, Craig, to marry her Croagunk, Chrissy. Brock then decides to enter the competition with his Croagunk to defeat him and win the love of Nurse Joy.

Craig seemed equally matched to Brock's Croagunk and knew a variety of different moves. But the competition was interrupted by Team Rocket who began to steal all the Croagunk.

Setting their differences aside, Hamilton, Brock, and Nurse Joy teamed up with their Croagunk to help. Eventually it was Chrissy who saved the day. Crasher Wake decided that Nurse Joy was the winner for saving the festival, even though she didn't enter. Hamilton also agreed to Wake's choice.
