[edit] Appearance
Patamon is a small flying creature resembling a hamster, with bat-like wings instead of ears.
[edit] Description
Patamon is the playful digimon partner of T.K.. In Digimon Adventure, Patamon was the last of the Digi-Destined digimon to achieve his champion form, and the last again to achieve his ultimate form. However, both his champion and his ultimate forms are very powerful, and are responsible for defeating Devimon and the final Dark Master Piedmon respectively.
T.K. returns as a main character in the second Digimon Adventure 02 season, and so does Patamon. Because of the Digimon Emperor's control spires, Patamon was no longer able to Digivolve into his champion form, and instead fought in his Armor form - Pegasusmon.
Attacks
- Boom Bubble (Air Shot): Patamon's body inflates as he gulps in air - which he then shoots forward from his mouth.
[edit] Other Forms
The name "Patamon" refers to only the rookie form of this digimon. Throughout the series, Patamon gains the ability to Digivolve into a number of more powerful forms (each with a different name). However, the rookie form remains as the most common and preferred form.
[edit] PoyomonPoyomon is Patamon's Fresh form. Poyomon's name comes from the Japanese word "poyon", an adjective which means "soft and mushy". After Angemon sacrificed himself to defeat Devimon, Patamon's data was reconfigured into a Digi-Egg. As the DigiDestined departed for the continent of Server - the Digi-Egg hatched into Patamon's fresh form Poyomon. Attacks

[edit] TokomonTokomon is the In-Training form of Patamon. The name "Tokomon" comes from "tokoton", a Japanese word meaning "the very last". T.K. first meets Tokomon immediately upon his arrival into the Digital World, and the two formed a strong bond very quickly. Tokomon later digivolves into Patamon when the DigiDestined children were under threat from Kuwagamon. When Patamon is reconfigured after the battle with Devimon, he hatches as Poyomon and digivolves to this form again in the Koromon village. Attacks

[edit] PegasusmonPegasusmon, the "Flying Hope", is the form Patamon becomes when he Armor Digivolves using the Digi-Egg of Hope. Patamon first became Pegasusmon on the day the Digi-Egg of Hope was found. Patamon and his partner T.K., along with Kari and Gatomon had ended up in a cave after escaping from attacking Tyrannomon. T.K. managed to open the Digi-Egg and evoked its power, allowing Patamon to Armor Digivolve to Pegasusmon. After Ken renounced his evil persona, Pegasusmon was no longer needed as Patamon could now Digivolve naturally. Pegasusmon was used as a means of transportation around the Digital World, and appeared one last time during the battle with MaloMyotismon. Attacks

[edit] AngemonAngemon redirects here. This section refers to the Angemon featured in Digimon Adventure/02. For the Angemon in Digimon Frontier, see List of Digimon Frontier minor characters
Angemon is the Champion form of Patamon. Angemon is a six-winged angel dressed in white and blue clothing. Angemon appears for the first time during the final fight against Devimon. Devimon had already defeated the other six DigiDestined and their partner Digimon, and when he attempted to grab T.K., Patamon jumped in with T.K. and finally Digivolved into his champion form Angemon - and in a final desperate attempt to defeat Devimon, sacrificed himself. Angemon was reborn as a Digi-Egg, eventually hatching to become Patamon again. Angemon is a very powerful Champion Digimon - his primary attack, the Hand of Fate is very effective against virus digimon. Even Myotismon (an ultimate level digimon) had been unable to dissipate it and Phantomon (another ultimate digimon) was completely destroyed by it. Attacks

[edit] ShakkoumonShakkoumon is an Ultimate level Mutant digimon who is the DNA Digivolved form of Angemon and Ankylomon, combining the features and armor attributes of a Dino-type Digimon with the powers of an Angel type. Shakkoumon is modeled after the Shakoukidoguu, an ancient Japanese clay figure from the Jomon era known for being suspiciously alien in appearance. Shakkoumon was first formed when the DigiDestined were about to battle BlackWarGreymon in an effort to protect the very last Destiny Stone. Both Cody Hida and T.K. knew they could not let the artificial Digimon destroy everyone, despite BlackWarGreymon's reasons. Their Digimon partners, Angemon and Ankylomon were able to DNA digivolve at that point, forming Shakkoumon, who teamed up with Paildramon and Silphymon to fight BlackWarGreymon. Attacks

[edit] MagnaAngemonMagnaAngemon is Patamon's natural Ultimate form. He carries the sword "excalibur", which allows him to open the Gate of Destiny. MagnaAngemon first appears towards the end of Digimon Adventure. Piedmon, the last of the Dark Masters, had been able to turn almost all the DigiDestined children and digimon into key chains. Patamon Digivolved to Angemon and joined the fight, but was easily defeated by Piedmon. After seeing T.K.'s hope for him, Angemon finally digivolves into MagnaAngemon. Using the Magna Antidote ability, MagnaAngemon was able to restore all the DigiDestined. MagnaAngemon then helped WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon defeat Piedmon. MagnaAngemon makes brief appearances in Digimon Adventure 02. In one episode, Angemon uses the power of a Destiny Stone to digivolve into MagnaAngemon and fight the nearly invincible BlackWarGreymon. Despite being only an ultimate level Digimon, MagnaAngemon was able to fight evenly with the mega level BlackWarGreymon. MagnaAngemon's unusually high power for an Ultimate digimon is similar to how his champion form, Angemon, is strong enough to match most ultimates. MagnaAngemon also appears during the World Tours.
