D-3
The D-3s are the Digivices
of the new DigiDestined. According to Izzy,
they have three settings - Digital, Detect, and Discover - hence
their name. The D-3s belonging to Davis, Yolei
and Cody were released from the Digi-Egg
of Courage when it was touched by Tai
upon his return to the DigiWorld, and shot
through the Digi-Port. Davis was in the computer
room when they emerged, and got his immediately, and used it to
travel into the DigiWorld with T.K. and Kari.
The next day, Yolei and Cody were able to use their D-3s to
travel into the DigiWorld and find their Digimon
and Digi-Eggs. When T.K. and Kari discovered
their own Digi-Eggs a little later, their own original Digivices
morphed into D-3s.
The Digimon Emperor also had a D-3, which he
used to broadcast power to his Control Spires.
It had originally been
a regular Digivice,
but when he travelled to the DigiWorld for the second time,
infected by a Dark Spore, he dipped his Digivice
into the Dark Ocean in the World of
Darkness, transforming it into a black D-3.
It was later revealed that only D-3s were able to open the
Digi-Port to the DigiWorld. When the kids use them to do so, they
say "Digi-Port, open!" but it is unlikely that this is
a necessity, as the portal opened without them saying it to start
with. The D-3s, like the old Digivices, have the tracking
facility that allows them to detect other Digivices, and also
pick up the signals emitted by Digi-Eggs. When a Digimon Armour
Digivolves, the power of the Digi-Egg in use is sent to
the D-3 by the D-Terminal in which it is stored,
and released through it, allowing the Digivolution to take place.
When the new Digimon were finally able to normally Digivolve
into their Champion forms, the D-3s acted just
like regular Digivices during the process.
D-3s first appear in "Enter Flamedramon."
Izzy dubs them "D-3s" for the first time in "Guardian
Angel."
DAEMON
Group: Evil - Level: Mega
- Type: Virus - Attack Techniques: Evil Inferno,
Evil Flapping
The origins of the malevolent Digimon called Daemon
are shrouded in mystery. Possessed of the ability to open Digi-Ports
whenever he wants, Daemon commands a squad of powerful Digimon,
dubbed the Daemon Corps, and is thought by many to have some
connection to the enigmatic World of Darkness.
Daemon was aware of the Dark Spore within Ken
Ichijouji, and sought to use the construct for his own
purposes. He, LadyDevimon, SkullSatamon
and MarineDevimon appeared in Odaiba,
and began searching for Ken. After Imperialdramon
destroyed SkullSatamon, Daemon appeared and demanded that Ken
come with him. Arukenimon then appeared with a
truckload of kidnapped children, and told Ken that if he went
with her, she would release the captives. He complied, but once
inside the truck, Ken was confronted by Oikawa,
Arukenimon and Mummymon's creator, who copied
the Dark Spore within Ken, planning to implant it inside the
kidnapped children. LadyDevimon and MarineDevimon were destroyed
by Silphymon and Shakkoumon,
but Daemon pursued the truck, forcing it to stop, and demanding
Ken be handed over. Oikawa was about to comply - having no longer
use for the boy - but the other DigiDestined and
their Digimon arrived and commenced battled with the villain.
Their attacks were unable to defeat him, but they kept fighting.
As Daemon was able to open Digi-Ports on his own, sending him the
DigiWorld served no purpose - but then Ken used the dark power
that was still buried within him to convert a Digi-Port into a
gateway to the World of Darkness, though which Daemon was cast.
Daemon did nothing but laugh as the portal closed around him.
Daemon did not return - it is thought that his continued
existence is required to maintain the balance of light and
darkness in the universe.
Daemon first appears in "Invasion of the
Daemon Corps." His voice is supplied by Bob
Papenbrook.
Bandai packaging and trading cards show that Daemon
has another form - a demonic beast - that did not appear on the
show.
Name: "Daemon" (pronounced
"Day-mon") is an archaic alternative spelling of
"demon" - and Daemon's original Japanese name is
"Demon." The name on Bandai's materials is
"Creepymon," but this awful name was thankfully changed
by Saban for the show to one more reminiscent of his original.

DARK DIGIVOLVE
The process by which Agumon became a viral
version of MetalGreymon, which involved the Digimon
Emperor using his Dark Digivice to
power up the Dark Spiral holding Agumon, giving
him the ability to Digivolve. Agumon skipped out Champion
level when he Dark Digivolved, and went straight to Ultimate
- it's not known if this is inherent in the Dark Digivolve
process.
Dark Digivolving occurs in "The Captive
Digimon."

Episode Trivia - Upon this episode's first screening
in the US, it was combined with "Duel of
the WarGreymon" to make an hour long
special which acted as the second part of "The
Battle For Both Worlds."
DARK MASTERS
The Dark Masters are four Mega level Digimon
created by Apocalymon - MetalSeadramon,
Puppetmon, Machinedramon and
their leader, Piedmon - many years ago. When a
Koromon and Parrotmon were transported
to Earth by a dimensional rift, the mysterious group charged with
protecting the DigiWorld (of which
Gennai was a part) observed the situation that ensued,
and decided upon the eight children who viewed the battle to be
the new DigiDestined. They began to create Digivices,
Tags and Crests for them, so
they could save the DigiWorld from evil in the future, but the
Dark Masters got wind of their plan. In a brutal attack, Piedmon
killed all of the group and stole the Crests. Four Earth years
later, the Crests were spread out across the DigiWorld - it is
not clear how this came to be.
Prior to the coming of the DigiDestined, the Dark Masters battled
and defeated the Harmonious Ones, the four
guardians o the DigiWorld, sealing them away. The DigiDestined
soon arrived, and battled and defeated Devimon
and Etemon. In the many years that passed in the
DigiWorld during the few days that the kids returned to Earth to
stop Myotismon's plans for conquest, the Dark
Masters emerged again took control of the entire DigiWorld,
reforming its digital matter into the massive Spiral
Mountain. The kids returned to the DigiWorld to battle
the Dark Masters, but in their first fight with them, they were
severely outmatched. They were only saved by Piximon.
The kids then began to climb Spiral Mountain, battling each of
the Dark Masters in turn, with help from their old Digimon
friends. The Dark Masters were each defeated in turn, and the
kids then had to fight Apocalymon himself.
The Dark Masters first appeared, obviously enough, in "Enter
The Dark Masters."

DARK NETWORK
Etemon's Dark Network is essentially a computer network that runs
across the desert regions on the continent of Server,
connecting all areas of Etemon's domain. There are numerous
access terminals across the desert, one of which was tapped into
by Izzy. Etemon and his Gazimon constantly
monitor the Network for information. Even Kokatorimon's
cruise ship was connected to the Network.
When the DigiDestined kids arrived on Server, they were set upon
by Etemon, who blamed them for recent malfunctions in his
Network. They fled across the desert, finding their Crests
on the way, and running to several of his minions, including
Kokatorimon and Tyrannomon. It was when Izzy
tapped into the aforementioned terminal that he received a
message from someone who purported to be imprisoned inside
Etemon's pyramid, the nexus point for the Dark Network. The kids
discovered that the prisoner was Datamon, who
had been imprisoned there by Etemon after being defeated by him
in battle, and was forced to run his Network. It was actually
Datamon who had been causing the Network malfunctions. The kids
freed Datamon, but he turned out to be just as evil as Etemon,
and kidnapped Sora and Biyomon,
taking them to another chamber in the pyramid, where he attempted
to make a digital copy of Sora who could use her Crest and serve
him. Tai saved Sora, and then Etemon smashed in. As he and
Datamon fought, Datamon dropped computer viruses into the Dark
Network, causing it to start to absorb matter. Datamon was sucked
in and destroyed, but somehow, Etemon managed to merge with the
Dark Network, boosting his power. Even that power wasn't enough
to stand against MetalGreymon, however, who used
his Giga Blaster attack to destroy Etemon and the Network.

DARK RINGS
The Dark Rings were created
by the Digimon Emperor, and are overly
reminiscent of Devimon's Black Gears.
The rings are capable of independent flight, and are outfitted
with cameras, which transmit images back to the Emperor's throne
room in his base. When a Dark Ring attaches itself to a Digimon,
it takes control of their mind, placing them under the Emperor's
complete control. The Emperor's shades are linked to the rings,
and send orders directly from his mind to the minds of the
Digimon, via the rings. Dark Rings are only powerful enough to
control Digimon at the Champion level or below -
the Emperor discovered this when he attempted to have Greymon
become MetalGreymon while under the power of a
Dark Ring. Greymon fought the power of the ring, and the Digivolving
process, which corrupted and once again transformed him into SkullGreymon,
who was unaffected by the ring. To capture Ultimate
Digimon, the Emperor created the Dark Spirals.
Dark Rings first appear in "Enter
Flamedramon."
DARK SPIRALS
The Dark Spirals
are more powerful versions of the Dark Rings,
created by the Digimon Emperor, which run on their own
independent power source and do not need the Control Spires to
power them. After his experience with SkullGreymon,
the Emperor realised that Dark Rings were not powerful enough to
control Ultimate level Digimon, and so created
the Dark Spirals for that purpose. Agumon, held
captive by the Emperor, had a Spiral attached to him, and was
then Dark Digivolved into a viral version of MetalGreymon
by the Emperor's D-3. This Spiral was destroyed
by Raidramon, and so the Emperor developed a
more powerful version, which was then seen to be used on Gorillamon,
Digitamamon, Ninjamon, ShogunGekomon,
MegaSeadramon and Dokugumon.
The "Scubamon" in the World of
Darkness were seen to have Dark Spirals attached to
them, but apparently they were not real, and were merely used to
dupe Kari into helping them so they could
capture her.
Dark Spirals first appear in "The
Captive Digimon."
DARK SPORES
The Dark Spores appeared when Ken and Ryo
defeated Millenniummon, apparently released from
the monster's body. The Spores then soared through the air,
towards Ryo, but Ken pushed him out of the way, and one of the
Spores struck his neck, sinking inside of him.
Some time after his brother Sam's death, Ken
received an e-mail from Oikawa, a human who was
aware of the digital world's existence, and knew of the Spore
within Ken. Ken had forgotten all about the DigiWorld,
but used the Digivice which had emerged from
Sam's computer some years prior to return to the DigiWorld, but
was sidetracked into the World of Darkness.
Urged on by the power of the Dark Spore, Ken immersed his
Digivice in the ocean, transforming it into the Dark D-3,
and activating the Spore fully. Ken went on to the DigiWorld, and
was reunited with Wormmon, but the Spore began
to affect him. Ken, feeling guilt over Sam's death, because he
had wished for him to disappear, wanted to be like Sam, so he
could fill the void that had been left in his parent's lives -
so, the Spore fulfilled his desires, making him a genius, like
Sam had been, and augmenting his physical abilities. But, as the
e-mail from Oikawa had said, Ken became apathetic towards
society, and found the people of Earth below him. In the
DigiWorld, he became the Digimon Emperor,
setting about conquering it. Months later, he was restored to his
normal self, but the Dark Spore remained within him.
Some time later, after the DigiDestined had
rounded up all the wild Digimon that had made their way to Earth,
the evil Daemon and his minions arrived in Odaiba,
planning to find Ken, and use his Spore for their own purposes.
Daemon demanded Ken come with him - but Arukenimon
convinced him to come with her but showing him a truck of
kidnapped children, saying they would be freed if he complied.
Ken did so, but once inside the truck, he was confronted by
Oikawa. Oikawa said the children did not WANT to be freed - they
wanted to become like Ken had been. Oikawa copied the Dark Spore
within Ken, planning to implant it within all the children.
Daemon caught up with them, and Oikawa was willing to hand Ken
over, no longer having need for him. However, the DigiDestined
and their Digimon were able to repel Daemon back into the World
of Darkness.
The children had been implanted with copies of the Spores, and
they were already taking affect, fulfilling the children’s'
own desires, making them like Ken - making them apathetic and
vicious. The Spore within a girl named Noriko
then flowered, and Oikawa absorbed it's power, enabling him to
actually defeat BlackWarGreymon in battle.
Oikawa brought then brought the children to Highton View
Terrace, and attempted to open a portal to the
DigiWorld. However, the portal took him, Arukenimon, Mummymon,
the Spore-carrying children and the DigiDestined to a bizarre
nightmare world, where the truth finally came out - the spirit of
Myotismon had been within Oikawa for the last
four years, manipulating his actions. Myotismon emerged, and
then, as the Spores came into flower, he absorbed their power one
by one, using the dark energy to transform himself into MaloMyotismon.
MaloMyotismon attempted to spread pure darkness across the face
of the Earth and the DigiWorld, but the combined power of the
world's DigiDestined, and the power of their dreams, destroyed
him for good.
The Dark Spores first appear in "Invasion
of the Daemon Corps." Their original
Japanese name is the Dark Seeds.

DARKTYRANNOMON
Group: Dinosaur
- Level: Champion - Type: Virus
- Attack Technique: Fire Blast
The first DarkTyrannomon the kids encountered was one of Myotismon's
minions. He first appeared when Myotismon's armies emerged to
swarm Odaiba in the search for the Eighth Child,
the predestined eighth member of the DigiDestined.
Matt's father and his friends had a close run-in
with him, but escaped unharmed. DarkTyrannomon reared his head
again when the captive populous of Odaiba attempted to escape
from the convention centre where Myotismon had imprisoned them. Togemon
battled him, but was outmatched, when Mimi's
father crashed a van into him, but didn't do any damage.
DarkTyrannomon was all set to finish off Mimi's parents, when
Mimi's Crest began to glow, allowing Togemon to Digivolve
to Lillymon. Lillymon used a flower chain to
suppress the computer virus inside DarkTyrannomon, rendering him
harmless. Then, Myotismon showed up and blasted DarkTyrannomon
back to the DigiWorld.
Four years later, DarkTyrannomon were seen under the control of
the Digimon Emperor on several occasions. First,
the Emperor called in a platoon of DarkTyrannomon to battle the
rampaging SkullGreymon, who had overpowered one
of the Emperor's Dark Rings. More were summoned
to battle the DigiDestined's Digimon while the Emperor attached a
Dark Spiral to Agumon. Later, when the DigiDestined
discovered the location of the Emperor's base, a number of
DarkTyrannomon were seen battling other Digimon
outside of it.
At Christmas, a DarkTyrannomon and some Bakemon
invaded the arena where the Teenage Wolves were
playing, and another appeared in New York City shortly
thereafter.
A DarkTyrannomon first appears in "Flower
Power."
Name: From the words "dark" and
"Tyrannosaurus," a type of dinosaur.
DARK WHIRLPOOL
The Dark Whirlpool, as noted by the Digimon Emperor,
was created by the presence of an evil Digimon.
The Emperor brought his fortress inside the Whirlpool, but was
pursued by T.K., Pegasusmon and
Tentomon. Wraith-like images swirled in the air around
them, and Pegasusmon told T.K. not fear, although he and the
other Digimon nearby, including Wormmon, could
feel an evil presence within the pool. Venturing inside the
Whirlpool in a Mekanorimon, the Emperor
confronted the presence in question - Devimon!
Devimon told the Emperor to beware the darkness, but he paid no
heed, and harvested some of Devimon's data for use in the
creation of Kimeramon.
Later encounters with the same feeling and energy that the kids
experienced within the pool makes it clear that the Dark
Whirlpool was some form of gateway into the World of
Darkness - it was most likely only temporary, to lure
the Emperor in to attempt to prevent him from his plans to
control the forces of darkness.
The Dark Whirlpool appears in "An Old
Enemy Returns."
DARK WORLD
See World of Darkness
DATA
One of the three Digimon
classifications. Digimon of the Data type are commonly harmless,
who don't make battling a major part of their lifestyle, and
exist to carry out a certain job or function.
Compare: Vaccine, Virus
DATAMON
Group: Android -
Level: Ultimate - Type: Virus -
Attack Techniques: Digital Bomb, Data Crusher
Datamon is a good example of why you should never judge a book by
it's cover. He's small and harmless-looking, and he approached
the kids claiming to be good, but in reality, he's packed with
power, and evil through and through!
Long ago, Datamon battled Etemon, but was
defeated. Etemon captured the damaged Datamon and sealed him
inside his pyramid, forcing him to run his Dark Network.
As time went on, Datamon slowly repaired himself, and began to
take partial control of Etemon's Network. When the DigiDestined
arrived on Server, Etemon blamed them for recent
malfunctions in his network, when in reality, it was Datamon who
was responsible. Datamon sent the kids an e-mail through Izzy's
computer when it was latched up to an access port for Etemon's
Network, and told them he was being held prisoner in the pyramid.
He promised that if they helped free him, he could take them to Sora's
Crest. The kids formulated a plan, and snuck
inside the pyramid, breaching the chamber where Datamon was held.
Just as Etemon barged in, they succeeded in freeing Datamon, but
he immediately turned on them and captured Sora and Biyomon.
Taking them to another chamber deeper inside the pyramid, Datamon
set about attempting to create a digital duplicate of Sora, who
could use her Crest, but would be under his control. Tai
was able to save her, allowing her to recover her Crest from
Datamon, when Etemon smashed his way in again, and engaged
Datamon in battle. Datamon then dropped computer viruses into the
Dark Network (presumably this was his Digital Bomb attack), which
began to suck in matter, eradicating it. Datamon was sucked into
the Network and destroyed.
Datamon appears in "The Prisoner of the
Pyramid" and "The
Earthquake of Metal Greymon." His voice is
supplied by Eddie Frierson.
Name: From the word "data," meaning
information.
DATA WORLD
The Data World is the world between Earth and DigiWorld, a
form of limbo, where the digital information of deceased Digimon
is sent upon their death. Once there, it is reconfigured into a Digi-Egg
and then deposited in Primary Village. The DigiDestined
were sent to the Data World when Apocalymon deleted their
digital bodies, but they were able to reconstitute themselves.
DATIRIMON
Group: Micro - Level: Baby
- Attack Technique: Bubble Blow
Datirimon is the Digimon partner of Oikawa. When he
was younger, and in communication with the DigiWorld,
along with Cody's father, Oikawa met Datirimon, but when
his connection to the DigiWorld was removed, he forgot about him,
thanks in part to his possession by Myotismon. When MaloMyotismon
was defeated, Cody dragged Oikawa to the edge of the portal to
the DigiWorld, where Datirimon appeared, and greeted Oikawa, who
began to remember that he had a Digimon all along. Oikawa then
sacrificed himself to restore the DigiWorld to normal. What
became of Datirimon is unknown - what he may Digivolve into
remains just as unknown. While Oikawa did have a Digimon
partner in Datirimon, he was not, repeat, NOT, one of the
original five DigiDestined.
Datirimon appears in "A Million Points of
Light." His voice is supplied by Dorothy
Elias-Fahn.
Name: Datirimon's original Japanese name is Pipimon. His American
name was chosen as the result of a contest held by Bandai.
DAVIS
Davis
Motomiya is a member of the DigiDestined,
partnered with Veemon and holder of the Digi-Eggs
of Courage and Friendship. Davis is the
self-proclaimed leader of the new team of DigiDestined, but he is
far from being the sharpest tool in the box, and often finds
himself the butt of others' jokes. He goes to the same soccer
club as Tai, and has a serious crush on Tai's
sister, Kari, which she knows about, and uses to
tease him. Davis's connection to Digimon and the
DigiWorld began in the summer of 1999, when he,
his sister June and his parents were among the
people held prisoner at the convention centre by Myotismon
when he was searching for the Eighth Child. In the original
planning packet, Davis was one of the children who had seen the Greymon/Parrotmon
battle at Highton ViewTerrace, but this was
later changed.
Four years later, Davis, like all the other non-DigiDestined
people on Earth, had his memories of Myotismon's invasion and the
battle with Apocalymon suppressed. All he knew
about Digimon and the DigiWorld was what Tai had told him - but
that was destined to change. When the Digimon Emperor began
his conquest of the DigiWorld, Agumon summoned
Tai to help, who discovered the Digi-Egg of Courage. When Tai
touched it, it released three new Digivices -
D-3s - which travelled to the real world, to be received
by Davis, Yolei and Cody - the
new DigiDestined. Davis travelled through the gate to the
DigiWorld with T.K. and Kari, and met his
Digimon, Veemon. He proved to be the only one who could lift the
Digi-Egg of Courage, and then used it to Armour Digivolve
Veemon into Flamedramon to battle a Monochromon
which was under the influence of one of the Emperor's Dark
Rings. The next day, Yolei and Cody came to the
DigiWorld with Davis, T.K., Kari, Sora and Izzy,
but Davis and Veemon were captured by the Emperor. Yolei and Cody
found their Digimon and Digi-Eggs, and freed Davis.
Davis effectively dubbed himself the leader of the new group, but
few of them actually listened to him - he and Matt clashed
when the older boy came to the DigiWorld with them following a
distress call from Gabumon. Later, when Kari was
stranded in the city of the Gardromon, Davis and
T.K. argued violently about how to save her.
A little later, Davis was playing in a soccer match against the
famous Ken Ichijouji, and wound up injuring him.
The Digimon Emperor then tortured Davis, threatening to feed the
DigiDestined to Deltamon - but in a scuffle,
Davis saw a familiar cut on the Emperor's leg - he was really
Ken!
When the Emperor kidnapped Agumon and Dark Digivolved
him into a viral version of MetalGreymon, Davis
could not bring himself to attack the Digimon who he considered
to be his friend. Veemon came under threat from his inaction, and
when Davis realised that he had to be cruel to be kind, the Digi-Egg
of Friendship activated, and Veemon became Raidramon
to free MetalGreymon.
Davis continued to go on all the group's adventures, even
travelling to America with the other DigiDestined to help Willis,
a DigiDestined from Colorado, battle his rogue Digimon partner, Kokomon.
Davis and Willis used the Golden Digi-Eggs,
released by Seraphimon and Magnadramon,
to Armour Digivolve Veemon and Terriermon into Magnamon
and Rapidmon to defeat Kokomon. Note that
this adventure is supposed to be out of continuity, but has been
shoe-horned in by the US translators.
When the DigiDestined discovered the Digimon Emperor's base and
made it their mission to destroy it, Davis wound up being left
behind as everyone followed the base out across the sea. Davis
used a floating island to catch up and help transport the
Emperor's rescued captives to safety. Davis and the rest of the
team then managed to infiltrate the base, but were defeated in
battle by the Emperor's creation, Kimeramon.
Davis attempted to locate the engine room, and was led there by Wormmon,
the Emperor's partner, who was equally determined to stop his mad
plans. Davis discovered that the base's power source was the Digi-Egg
of Miracles, which he used to Armour Digivolve Veemon
into Magnamon. Magnamon then defeated Kimeramon, and Davis and
the other made the Emperor realise that Digimon were real, living
things, not just computer data. Stunned, the Emperor reverted
back into his true personality.
While rebuilding the DigiWorld after the Emperor's defeat, Davis
tried to make Veemon Digivolve into his Champion
form by pulling tricks on him. However, his tricks led to them
being chased by an aggravated Tortomon, but
Veemon finally was able to Digivolve into ExVeemon
to see him off.
Later, Davis attempted to convince the others to let Ken help
them in their work. Davis said it was if the Digi-Egg of Miracles
"told" him Ken could be a good person - but none of the
others believed him. Nonetheless, Davis summoned Ken to help them
prevent the reactor of his old base exploding - but during a
battle with Okuwamon, who had been created by
the mysterious woman plaguing the team, ExVeemon and Stingmon
DNA Digivolved into Paildramon. Ken's Crest
of Kindness failed to stop the reactor's explosion
building, but then Paildramon destroyed the reactor's power
source, saving the day. Davis still could not understand why Ken
would not join the team.
Summoned to the Giga House by the mysterious woman, the
DigiDestined were attacked by insectoid Digimon under her
control, and Davis, Ken and Cody wound up trapped in a Dokugumon's
web. They escaped, and managed to free Digmon
and Stingmon from her control, and she revealed her true form - Arukenimon,
a Digimon! She and her partner Mummymon defeated
Paildramon, and escaped.
Davis and the others then battled Arukenimon's latest creation, BlackWarGreymon,
numerous times, working to prevent him from destroying the Destiny
Stones. The power of the kids Digivices, when used on
the last Destiny Stone, freed the mighty Azulongmon,
who explained the reasons behind Davis, Yolei and Cody's becoming
the new DigiDestined, and warned the kids to be beware of a
greater enemy. He also told BlackWarGreymon that all living
things have a purpose, and the misguided Digimon set off to find
his.
Davis then accepted an invitation to Ken's Christmas party, along
with all the other kids, and even suggested a game of strip
poker. However, the fun was cut short when a Control
Spire appeared in the city along with some wild Digimon,
and they had to battle them and destroy it. Spires began
appearing all over Earth, as Arukenimon opened all the Digi-Ports.
During a battle with Mummymon and Arukenimon, Davis and Ken came
under threat, and Paildramon Mega Digivolved to Imperialdramon.
Then, Davis travelled to America, where he teamed up with Mimi,
Michael and the other American DigiDestined to
battle a Cherrymon in Rockafeller Centre, while
the other Japanese DigiDestined headed off to other spots around
the world, taken by Imperialdramon. When they all returned to
Tokyo, their job done, they discovered that an evil Digimon named
Daemon and his minions had come to Earth and
were searching for Ken, planning to use the Dark Spore within
him for their own purposes. Ken was taken away by Arukenimon,
Mummymon and their creator, Oikawa, who copied
Ken's Spore and implanted it in other children, as Davis pursued
the truck he was in. Daemon appeared and demanded Ken be handed
over, and Oikawa was about to do so, when the DigiDestined
arrived to battle the dark Digimon. Ken had to call on the dark
power that remained within him to convert a Digi-Port into a
gateway to the World of Darkness - it appeared
that he would not be able to do it, but Davis and the others
showed their confidence in him, and offered the power of their
hearts. Daemon was banished.
When BlackWarGreymon returned, determined to destroy Oikawa,
Imperialdramon and WarGreymon battled and
defeated him. When he was fatally injured by a blast of dark
energy from Oikawa, who had absorbed the dark power from a
flowered Dark Spore, he used the last of his energy to seal the
gate to the DigiWorld at Highton

with his body. Oikawa tried to open the portal to the DigiWorld,
and Davis and the others followed them through, but they, Oikawa,
Arukenimon, Mummymon, and the children infected with Dark Spores
wound up in a bizarre alternate dimension, where the truth came
out - Oikawa was possessed by the spirit of Myotismon, who had
been manipulating him for the last four years. Myotismon emerged
from Oikawa's body, and absorbed the power from the Dark Spores,
turning himself into MaloMyotismon. Bending the
dream dimension to his will, MaloMyotismon subjected the
DigiDestined to illusions of their greatest desires - but Davis
had no desires, and was able to free the other kids from their
illusions. In the process, he used the dimension to make a dream
of his own come true - and Veemon Digivolved into all his
different forms at once! The other Digimon did the same, and
MaloMyotismon fled into the DigiWorld, where he began to infect
Earth with darkness. The children who had been infected with Dark
Spores believed it was all over - their hopes and dreams meant
nothing. But Davis and the other convinced them to believe in
their dreams - Davis even talked about a dream of his own; to own
a noodle cart! The other kids began talking about their dreams,
and the power of hope began to weaken MaloMyotismon, destroying
his body. Imperialdramon then destroyed his spirit with his Giga
Crusher attack. Oikawa sacrificed his life to restore the
DigiWorld to harmony.
Three months later, it was discovered that Diaboromon
had survived his battle with Omnimon four years
beforehand, and that he had used the time in between to reproduce
as millions of Kuramon. Davis was on his way to
soccer practise when Izzy called him to fill him in on the
situation, but on the way, he met some kids who confused him with
talk of jellyfish, not knowing the truth. The Kuramon were
transmitting themselves into the real world through e-mail, so
while Tai, Matt and Omnimon headed into the 'net to battle
Diaboromon, the other kids were sent on the trail of the Kuramon
- Davis and Ken located several, including a large cluster on a
train. When Davis learned that Kari, T.K. and their Digimon had
gone to help Omnimon, he demanded that he go as well. He begged
to borrow a laptop computer from a nearby civilian, and
instructed Yolei to open the gate for him. However, he had played
right into Diaboromon's hands - when Yolei opened the gate, it
was opened wide enough for all the Kuramon to travel through it
into the real world, where, in Tokyo Harbour, they all merged
into the monstrous Armageddemon, who quickly
defeated Omnimon. Davis and Ken eventually reached the harbour,
where they then struggled to reach their partners through the
crowd of spectators. Davis screamed out in anger, and the crowd
parted, allowing them to get to their partners, and have them
evolve into Imperialdramon. Omnimon gave Imperialdramon his
energy, transforming him into his Paladin Mode, and he
discorporated Armageddemon with his Omega Sword. The kids then
used their Digivices - and the other spectators their cell
phones - to capture the Kuramon, and after the battle was done,
Davis remarked how tired he was.
Twenty-five years into the future, the portal to the DigiWorld
remains open, and Veemon remains at Davis's side. Davis has
accomplished his dream - and more! He started out with a simple
noodle cart, but slowly, his business grew, and he now owns a
chain of "Noodle, Noodle, Come Get Your Noodle"
businesses all across the world! He is a millionaire (possibly
even a billionaire), and he and Veemon have even appeared on the
cover of TIME magazine! He is married, and as a son (though
the identity of the mother is unknown).
Davis first appears in "Enter
Flamedramon." His voice is supplied by
Brian Donovan.
"DAVIS CRIES WOLFMON"
Digimon Adventure 02 episode #22
English version written by Jeff Nimoy & Bob Buchholz
The DigiDestined
set about
rebuilding the DigiWorld, but during
the work, Davistries to make Veemon
Digivolve into his Champion
stage. His tricks wind up annoying Tortomon,
who chases the two of them, until Veemon finally does Digivolve
into ExVeemon to send Tortomon packing.
Episode Trivia - This episode featured notable edits,
specifically, of Tortomon urinating. Davis and Veemon actually
interrupted him while he was doing so, and that's why he chased
them. Davis did ask him to wash his hands, because it's just good
hygiene. The title of this episode is
derived from the fable, "the Boy Who Cried Wolf,"
though it first aired with the misspelled title "Davis Cries
Wolfman."
DELTAMON
Group: Composition - Level: Champion
- Type: Virus - Attack Techniques: Triplex
Force, Serpent Bite
Deltamon was a slave of the Digimon Emperor,
under the power of a Dark Ring. The Emperor had
several of his Bakemon slaves disguise
themselves as the DigiDestined, making Davis
think he had captured the real DigiDestined. The Emperor made
Davis chose one of them to be spared from Deltamon's hunger, but
Davis tried to sacrifice himself. Fortunately, the DigiDestined
showed up in time to reveal the truth and destroy the Control
Spire, freeing Deltamon - but Davis had made a shocking
discovery: the Digimon Emperor was really Ken Ichijouji!
Deltamon appears in "Ken's Secret."
Name: Delta is the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet,
represented by a triangle.
DEMIDEVIMON
Group: Evil - Level: Rookie
- Type: Virus - Attack Techniques: Demi Dart,
Evil Whisper
DemiDevimon is a servant of Myotismon, and is
adept at cunning and treachery. He's a convincing liar, without
remorse for his actions.
DemiDevimon made his first appearance while Tai
was missing after the battle with Etemon.
Without Tai's leadership, the DigiDestined group
slowly broke up, until Matt and T.K.
and their Digimon were the only ones left
together. Matt and Gabumon took a boat across a lake to see what
they could find, and came across Joe, working in
the restaurant of Digitamamon, trying to pay off
a debt. Matt wound up being consigned to the same fate when
DemiDevimon began causing accidents, making it look as though
they were Joe's fault. Matt and Joe had to keep working to pay
the damages, plus Matt grew angry at Joe, preventing his Crest
from glowing. DemiDevimon then went off to inform a group of Gekomon
and Otamamon about Mimi and her
singing voice, telling them she could surely wake up their
sleeping ruler, ShogunGekomon. The Gekomon and
Otamamon found her and brought her to the castle, but Mimi soon
had them treating her like a princess. She was more than a little
spoilt, and it prevented her Crest from glowing. After dealing
with Sora by telling her that her Crest wouldn't
glow because she didn't know what love was, DemiDevimon turned
his attention to Izzy, and managed to have him
trapped in Vademon's dimension. Leaving him
there, DemiDevimon then went back to the lake, where he met up
with T.K. and Tokomon, and tried to convince
T.K. that Matt wasn't coming back out of choice. Tokomon thought
he was a liar, and wound up arguing with T.K. T.K. left with
DemiDevimon, but then, Tai returned, but was duped by DemiDevimon
too. With a little help from Sora, lurking in the background and
trying to help the other kids to prove that she loved them, Agumon
was able to prevent T.K. and Tai from eating the Mushrooms
of Forgetfulness that DemiDevimon tried to make them
eat. Tai, T.K. and their Digimon set out across the lake and
found Joe and Matt, and were able to reveal that it was
DemiDevimon causing the accidents at the restaurant. Matt's Crest
began to glow, and Gabumon Digivolved
to WereGarurumon to deal with Digitamamon. As
the kids divided up again to go looking for the others,
DemiDevimon quickly returned to Vademon, and tried to get him to
swap Izzy's Tag and Crest for a portion of his
curiosity. Fortunately, while he and Vademon were occupied, Tentomon
was able to snap Izzy out of the trance he had been put
in, and then Digivolved to MegaKabuterimon to
deal with Vademon. Immediately thereafter, Izzy met up with Matt
and T.K.. Joe and Tai, meanwhile, had come across Mimi, and,
after a lengthily bit of convincing, with a little unseen help
from Sora, they convinced her to sing her song and wake up
ShogunGekomon.
Myotismon was greatly displeased with DemiDevimon's failures to
prevent the Crests from glowing, and then attacked the kids
himself, but was held off by Garudamon.
DemiDevimon then recruited a selection of Digimon as part of
Myotismon's army - but his selections of Numemon,
Vegiemon and Chuumon and
Sukamon were upstaged by the much more powerful Digimon
collected by Gatomon, Myotismon's other
lieutenant. DemiDevimon then accompanied Myotismon in his assault
on the real world in his search for the Eighth Child, the
predestined eighth member of the DigiDestined. Wizardmon was
able to dupe DemiDevimon when he found the eighth Digivice.
DemiDevimon used his sleep wave attack to subdue the captive
populous of Odaiba, and also attempted to aid
Myotismon when the kids' Digimon Digivolved in the final battle
with him by intercepting the eighth Digivice as it was tossed to
it's owner, Kari (Tai's sister). However, when
Wizardmon sacrificed himself to save Kari's life, her Digivice
began to glow with power, forcing DemiDevimon to drop it. Tai
caught it and tossed it back to Kari, enabling Gatomon, who had
been proved to actually BE Kari's Digimon, to Digivolve to Angewomon
and finish Myotismon.
However, Myotismon was not destroyed, merely discorporated, and
immediately began reconstituting himself by having his bats
convert the bodies of his fallen followers into energy to power
him, then corralling together to form his new body. DemiDevimon
was also absorbed to be a part of this new body, as Myotismon
became VenomMyotismon. WarGreymon and
MetalGarurumon went on to defeat him.
DemiDevimon first appeared in "Forget
About It!" His last appearance (not
necessarily considered as his death) was in "Prophecy,"
when he was absorbed by VenomMyotismon. His voice is supplied by
Derek Stephen Prince.
Name: From the words "demi," meaning partially, or
lesser, and "devil."
DEMIVEEMON
Group: Micro - Level: In-Training
- Attack Technique: Pop Attack
DemiVeemon is the In-Training form of Veemon,
the Digimon partner of Davis of
the DigiDestined. DemiVeemon is fun and
excitable, with a serious love of candy. DemiVeemon first
appeared when Veemon came to the real world for the first time
along with the other new DigiDestined and their Digimon - Veemon
automatically reverted into DemiVeemon, and stayed that way until
he and the others returned to the DigiWorld the
next day, automatically Digivolving back into
Veemon upon arrival.
DemiVeemon continued to be Veemon's default form while on Earth,
easily hidden due to his small size. While in America with the
other kids, searching for Willis, a DigiDestined
from Colorado, DemiVeemon Digivolved into Veemon and then into Flamedramon
to battle Kokomon, Willis's rogue Digimon
partner. Note that this adventure is supposed to be out of
continuity.
DemiVeemon again Digivolved in the real world when Wizardmon's
ghost was causing trouble at the Odaiba TV
station - he and the other Digimon didn't know that it was
Wizardmon, and Digivolved to prepare for battle, but fortunately
didn't have to fight.
Later, when all the Armour Digimon were defeated
in battle with Kimeramon, they were so badly
injured that they reverted to their In-Training forms. DemiVeemon
accompanied Davis on a search for the engine room, which proved
to contain the Digi-Egg of Miracles - it's
energy allowed DemiVeemon to become Veemon again, and then to Armour
Digivolve into Magnamon. After
destroying Kimeramon, Magnamon reverted back to DemiVeemon.
After ExVeemon and Stingmon DNA
Digivolved into Paildramon, they
separated into Chibomon and Leafmon.
After a night's sleep, Chibomon Digivolved back into DemiVeemon.
DemiVeemon continued to act as Veemon's default form in the real
world, until Digimon began appeared all across the world.
Paildramon Mega Digivolved into
Imperialdramon, and then carried all the DigiDestined to
different locations around the world, before separating into
Veemon and Wormmon and helping to clear out the
wild Digimon in their respective locations, before returning to
Odaiba to battle the Daemon Corps, then help WarGreymon
battle BlackWarGreymon and go on to fight MaloMyotismon.
In March of the following year, when Diaboromon
returned, having reproduced as millions of Kuramon
which were entering the real world, DemiVeemon went with Davis,
Ken and Wormmon to track them down. When a large Kuramon cluster
emerged on a train, DemiVeemon Digivolved to fight, much to
Davis's anger.
Twenty-five years in the future, Davis's son has a DemiVeemon for
a partner.
DemiVeemon first appears in "The
Digiteam Complete." His voice is supplied
by Derek Stephen Prince.
Name: From "demi," meaning "half," and
"Vee," being a phonetic representation of
"V," for "victory."
"DEPARTURE FOR A NEW
CONTINENT"
Digimon Adventure episode #14
English version written by Jeff Nimoy & Bob Buchholz
After beating Devimon, the kids meet Gennai
for the first time, and head off to Server to
battle other evil Digimon, meeting Whamon
and Drimogemon
and finding their Tags
along the way.
DEPUTYMON
Group: Mutant - Level: Champion
- Type: Vaccine - Attack Techniques: Justice
Bullet, Russian Roulette
Deputymon is a rootin', tootin' hombre of a Digimon,
and is partners with Starmon. When Starmon fell
under the influence of a Dark Ring, he
imprisoned Davis, Cody, Yolei,
Sora and their Digimon, but then Deputymon
showed up. When he proved to the kids that he didn't have a Dark
Ring on him, they hoped he would release them - but he only
released the girls and their Digimon, wanting them to play cards
with him. Before the card game could get started, however,
Starmon showed up and he and Deputymon had a western-style
showdown. Starmon's Meteor Shower technique felled Deputymon, but
shortly, after the Control Spire was destroyed
and Starmon was freed, he popped up again, and he and Starmon
played cards with the kids.
Deputymon appears in "The Good, The Bad,
and The Digi." His voice, supplied by Dan
Lorge, is a caricature of John Wayne, the legendary western movie
star.
Name: From the word "Deputy," a police rank.
DERAMON
Group: Bird - Level: Ultimate
- Type: Data - Attack Techniques: Royal Smasher,
Beak Buster
The first Deramon the kids encountered was one of Puppetmon's
playmates, who commonly hung around with Floramon.
He made a brief appearance when T.K. escaped
from Puppetmon during the kids' first meeting with him, then he
and Floramon encountered the rest of the DigiDestined
after the group had divided up. Deramon gave the kids a tour of
Puppetmon's mansion, and agreed to help the kids fight him by
firing a cannon at him. When Puppetmon threatened them, Deramon
and Floramon fled, and were not seen again.
Four years later, several Deramon were seen
being held prisoner in the Digimon Emperor's
dungeons, and more were seen fleeing in panic shortly thereafter
as Kimeramon razed a town.
Deramon first appeared in "Playing
Games," but was not referred to by name,
and did not get a Digimon Analyser
screen until "Etemon's Comeback Tour."
His voice is supplied by Doug Erholtz.
Name: From "derakkusu," the Japanese pronunciation
of the word "deluxe."
DEREK
Derek is the Australian DigiDestined
encounter by Cody and Joe, who
is partnered with a Crabmon. While on the beach,
Cody and Joe saw Derek, who was wind surfing, come under attack
from an Ebidramon, a Gesomon and
a Shellmon. He escaped them, but they were then
all attacked by a Scorpiomon, who was seen off
when Submarimon and Zudomon
teamed up with Coelamon, Crabmon's Digivolved
form. Derek then reappeared when MaloMyotismon
was infecting Earth and the DigiWorld with
darkness, to join the other DigiDestined of the world in uniting
against the villain.
Derek appears in "Digimon World Tour,
Pt. 2" and "A Million
Points of Light." His voice is supplied,
fittingly enough, by Derek Stephen Prince.
