Stan is a male hamster character in the Hamtaro franchise, identified as the twin brother of Sandy. Their separation occurred when Noel, harboring a romantic interest in Sandy's owner Hillary, offered to care for one of her hamsters, resulting in Stan going home with Noel. Characterized by flirtatious behavior, Stan frequently attempts to charm female hamsters. This trait regularly annoys male characters, particularly Boss, Howdy, and Dexter. He is regularly depicted carrying maracas or using a skateboard. Unlike his typical interactions with other female hamsters, Stan does not engage in flirtatious behavior towards the nurse hamster, Flora. His documented appearances do not extend to storylines, development, or appearances in movies, OVAs, spin-offs such as *Tottoko Hamutaro: Norisuta Hai*, or video games including *Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Games*.
