He reappears as a referee in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]'', and drops the puck in the [[Ice Hockey (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games for Wii)|Ice Hockey]] event during the Face Off. He also appears in the Adventure Tour of the DS version. In it, the other members of the Chaotix left him behind in [[Cubyrinth]] while they were traveling. He will not open the gates he is in front of unless the player finds Vector and brings him to Charmy. Charmy will then argue with Vector and he will start a quiz. If the player completes the quiz, Charmy will cheer and open the gates. If the player talks to him enough times, he will tell the player the number of whitestones on Dream Island.

Charmy Bee return as a referee in the [[Wii]] [[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|version]] of ''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games'', and also appears as a character that can be spoken to in London Party mode in order to play minigames and earn stickers. A Mii costume based on Charmy can be unlocked for the player to wear, and Charmy will also occasionally send the player mail.

Charmy also appears in the game's story mode, where he finds [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Toad]], [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]] and [[Miles "Tails" Prower|Tails]] at the [[British Museum]] with Espio, and directs them to four different locations around [[London]] where [[Bowser]] and [[Dr. Eggman]]'s minions are causing trouble. He goes with Luigi to the [[London Tennis Club]], where they find [[Waluigi]] confronting [[Metal Sonic]], before following the pair to [[Eton Dorney]], where Charmy and Luigi meet back up with Mario and Toad and they watch [[Wario]] and Waluigi take on Dr. Eggman and Metal Sonic before destroying the [[Fog machine]]. They leave Wario and Waluigi to deal with Metal Sonic and Dr. Eggman before heading back to the [[Main Stadium]]. Charmy also appears in the final episode, where he calls the Heroes from the Main Stadium to offer them support when they face Bowser and Dr. Eggman, and later appears at the opening ceremony.

In the [[Wii U]] [[Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games (Wii U)|version]], the player needs to talk to him to play Heroes Showdown mode in single player (to play it in multiplayer, the player has to talk to [[Birdo]] instead).

In ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020]]'', Charmy Bee reappears as a referee for the [[Boxing (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020)|Boxing]] and [[Karate]] events.
