DIGIMON X-EVOLUTION
Summary
In this incarnation of the Digital World, the realm is overseen by a
computer identified as Yggdrasil. When the amount of data created by
Digivolution exceeded Yggdrasil's predictions, the Digital World began
to collapse, forcing Yggsdrasil to initiate a plan dubbed "Project
Ark," which saw it unleash the deadly X-Program to wipe out all the
Digimon it had no use for. A selected amount of Digimon were relocated
to a new Digital World, constructed of three plains, for further
experimentation. But some Digimon left behind were able to survive the
wrath of the X-Program, developing an antibody against it - the
X-Antibody - that transformed them into new, more powerful versions of
themselves. And they too fled to the new Digital World... and that is
where our story begins...
Viewed as outsiders by most Digimon, the X-Antibody Digimon are under
constant threat from Yggdrasil's elite team of warriors, the Royal
Knights (known to consist of Gallantmon, Omnimon, Magnamon,
Crusadermon, Dynasmon and Alforce Veedramon - there are twelve of them,
but only the first three of these appear in the movie, and
Crusadermon's voice can be heard in one scene). One such unfortunate
Digimon is the mysterious Dorumon, the nature of whose existence is
unknown even to him. After an encounter with a Leomon seeking his
X-Antibody and harassment from some Mushroomon, he crosses paths with
WarGreymon X, leader of a resistance movement who is attempting to make
regular Digimon realise that Yggdrasil is a threat to them all.
Following a battle with Omnimon, WarGreymon X entrusts a Tokomon to
Dorumon's care, but unfortunately, they both soon run afoul of
Omnimon, only to have WarGreymon X and MetalGarurumon X come to their
aid. In the course of the battle, Tokomon is injured and receives the
X-Antibody from MetalGarurumon X, who apparently dies. Tokomon becomes
Tokomon X, and Dorumon Digivolves into his Champion form of Dorugamon,
but then Gallantmon intervenes in the battle, revealing that Yggdrasil
has moved Project Ark into it's second stage - the complete deletion of
the Digital World, and all Digimon, both normal and X. Gallantmon has
turned against Yggdrasil because of this, and Omnimon clashes with him,
but in the course of the battle, Gallantmon allows himself to be
impaled on Omnimon's sword, dying, but claiming that there is something
he must find out by doing so.
In a renewed offensive, Mangamon, captures Dorugamon, and Yggdrasil
splits his data. When Omnimon questions this, it is revealed that
Dorumon is not a normal Digimon, but an experimental being created by
Yggdrasil (although quite what his purpose was is not clearly divulged
in the movie). Dorugamon is returned to the Digital World, and is found
and taken in by a rebel Digimon group, but the other half of his data
transforms into Death-X-Dorughoramon, who lays a series of Digi-Eggs
that hatch into a massive swarm of Death-X-Dorugremon. These beasts
proceed to attack the cave base of the rebel Digimon, and although
they, WarGreymon X and MetalGarurumon X (who is alive and well with no
explanation, and is still in his X form, despite giving Tokomon his
X-Antibody... er, yeah, I don't know either...) defend themselves,
things look bleak. Tokomon X awakens Dorugamon, and he Digivolves into
his Ultimate form of Dorugremon - and is startled by his similarity to
the Death-X-Dorugremon.
The battle reaches it's peak when Gallantmon returns, reborn with the
X-Antibody as Gallantmon X, and opens the doorway to Yggdrasil for
Dorugremon, telling him he will find his answers there. Entering
Yggdrasil's realm, he is confronted by Omnimon and Mangamon, but in the
course of the battle, Digivolves into his Mega form - Alphamon, who
Omnimon and Magnamon recognise as the legendary leader of the Royal
Knights. Although Magnamon is still loyal to Yggdrasil, he cannot stop
Alphamon and Omnimon from venturing towards Yggdrasil. And as they do
so, the second phase of Project Ark begins... and the Digital World
begins to die...
The duo's path is blocked, however, by Death-X-Dorughoramon, who
Alphamon quickly dispatches, allowing them to reach Yggdrasil. But
Yggdrasil remains silent, refusing to debate with them, and as they
prepare to destroy it, the floor of the chamber erupts -
Death-X-Dorughoramon has transformed into Death-X-Mon, and the two
knights seem unable to defeat him. Alphamon realises that Death-X-Mon
is his shadow, his own darkness, and so sacrifices himelf to destroy
him, impaling them both on his own sword. He transfers his X-Antibody
into Omnimon, who becomes Omnimon X, while he and Death-X-Mon recombine
into Monodramon. Omnimon X destroys Yggdrasil, and the Digital World
dies... and is reborn.
Gallantmon X and Omnimon X meet on a mountaintop, and discuss the
situation, realsing how they were all manipulated by Yggdrasil. And in
the valley below, Monodramon and Tokomon X are reunited.
