Edward Archer, known as Eddie, is Nate Adams' 11-year-old classmate and friend at Springdale Elementary. His appearance features distinctive "sleepy" eyes, high-placed eyebrows, and unkempt brown hair. He typically wears a green jacket (short or long) with orange patches on the sleeves, a white collared shirt over a light blue undershirt, rolled-up capris, blue shoes with white rims, and orange headphones matching his jacket patches. He appears shorter than Nate and Bear. Eddie maintains a relaxed, generally friendly demeanor, though not entirely reserved. He occasionally displays a subtle sense of superiority, noted by Katie, yet shows genuine concern, like when disturbed by Bear's bewitched bullying. He often appears expressionless or smiles awkwardly, internalizing frustration rather than expressing it openly. Academically stronger than Nate or Bear, Eddie has a keen interest in technology and new gadgets, frequently researching topics on his mobile phone. He disbelieves in supernatural phenomena, preferring scientific explanations. He also shows romantic interest in girls, including hints of a crush on Katie during the "Eddie's Search" chapter. He comes from a wealthy family in a high-class neighborhood. His parents are frequently absent due to work, leaving him alone during significant events like his birthday. This isolation surfaced in the "Yo-kai Sandmeh" episode, where a locked door in his heart symbolized his longing for parental presence during celebrations; his parents later returned home to celebrate with him after intervention. Eddie's closest relationship is with Nate, whom he advises and teases in a friendly manner. His dynamics with Bear are less defined, though they often socialize. Interactions with Katie remain ambiguous despite occasional romantic undertones. Eddie's parents share a cordial relationship with him, though this aspect is underexplored. Eddie possesses advanced technological skills. In the "Eddie's Search" game chapter, he disabled a museum's security system. In "High-Tech Hide And Seek," he utilized a specialized Mega Watch for tracking. He participates in key episodes and films. In "Yo-kai Sandmeh," his emotional conflict over his parents' absence drives the narrative. In the first Yo-kai Watch movie, he discusses strange town occurrences but dismisses Yo-kai involvement, laughing off the idea; he later appears in a dancing end-credits scene. The second movie features him in a non-speaking cameo, sleeping through a burglar alarm at his home. In the third movie, he bargains with Bear over a rare toy figure, leveraging their friendship for a discount. Game quests highlight his involvement. In "Yokai Aren't Real!", he reports familial oddities resolved by defeating specific Yo-kai. "Time And Toys" sees him seeking a retro robot, ultimately receiving an authentically aged version through time manipulation. "Who's That Girl" involves his infatuation with a temporarily inspirited girl named Shelly, though recognition issues arise later. "Ultimate Bear Boy" depicts his reluctance to play hero with Bear, leading to supernatural intervention and abrupt disengagement. Trivia notes Eddie as the third most frequently inspirited character in his friend group, after Nate and Katie. His zodiac sign is possibly Scorpio, indicated in episode 45. Alternate names include Matt (French), Pier (Italian), and Gabriel (Brazilian Portuguese).
