The Rookie level is the lowest Digivolutionary level that can deal meaningful damage during a battle. Digimon Digivolve to the Rookie level as children; depending on their battle experience, they may progress to the Champion level as adults or remain Rookies throughout their lives. They may also dedigivolve to Rookie if they cannot sustain the energy needed for higher levels.

Armor level. This level is a special Digivolutionary level, that first appeared in the Digimon Adventure 02 series, in which it can be reached by using a Digi-egg on a Digimon. The power of most of these Digimon are equal to a Champion level Digimon, although some are as strong as Ultimates or even Megas.

DigiCore
We need info on DigiCore's, and the redirect needs to be fixed to that section. 12:12, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Gender cleanup
I, personally believe the message this article is trying to convey is bogged down by using too much information concerning instances where gender has been mentioned. It can be broken down into two parts, one being an outright and brief explanation between physical gender and gender personality, and where gender personality exists among Digimon, and another concerning instances of secondary sex traits and genderlessness. This needs to get done, and think of the younger readers need to grasp the real message upfront. 74.194.224.252 04:06, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * ...as far as I can decipher your comment, the article does that. Please, give an actual example of what should be changed? 06:54, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

I was watching the neweest series and something is bothering me about this gender thing. This article says Digimon cannot sexually reproduce, but in the 7th episode of the series was revealed that Cutemon has parents. How is it possible if they cannot sexually reproduce? And I'm pretty sure Gomamon once asked Joe what are parents. Shadow Abyss 18:27, August 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * They could be its foster parents, or Xros Wars could have a different setup. However, in past seasons which were more or less linked, Digimon explicitly did not have gender.208.249.136.187 20:29, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

I personally think it can be up to the viewer to decide whether they think Digimon have gender or not. Though this is on a fan-based idea, not an official one.--Aang13 (talk) 13:06, April 21, 2015 (UTC)

Free
What about "Free" attribute? There only four written.

Super Ultimate
I do believe its Ultra after Mega, not Super Ultimate. Atleast that's how i've always known it. And i have always heard that their was a level above that but i don't believe so, their would be very few if any at that level.
 * Super Ultimate is what's canon, not Ultra. 03:47, January 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Honestly is there an example of Super Ultimate? I never found one CLARKMASTER! 16:30, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

Data absorption
By destroying a Digimon and absorbing their data, a Digimon can increase their power and/or size, gain the attacks of the destroyed Digimon, or become a entirely new Digimon

The ability to absorb the data of a fallen Digimon is first demonstrated in Digimon Tamers. Rika had destroy and absorb the data of many Digimon in the hopes that the increase in power would cause her to digivolve. destroyed countless Digimon to increase his power in his pursute to become the strongest. In his Battle with, Beelzemon destroyed and  and absorbed their data. As a result, Beelzemon gained Makuramon and Leomon's attacks and a increase in power.

In Digimon Fusion, The Bagra Army Zone Commanders, , and along with elite soldiers  and  used this ability. By destroying their own comrades and absorbing their data, they were able to become a new Digimon altogether.

In Digimon Fusion, planned in absorbing all kids in Taiki's school by turning them into data,expect for Taiki and Tagiru who we're not present at the time (Tagiru was late,Taiki was in different class and was later not present),  attempted to destroy  and absorb her data, in order to become the most powerful Digimon in the Ocean. In one episode later, used 1 persons obsession of cards to absorb him and turn black and later become .However this might not be data absorbtion but rather absorbing negative energy.

In Digimon Frontier, absorbing a Digimon's Fractal Code achieves the same result as aborbing its data.

Reproduction
In addition to Xros Wars, should we mention the Deep Ones in the Cthulhu episode? If they're Digimon, or at least entities inhabiting bodies physically identical to Digimon, the fact that they think they can mate with Kari would be relevant. 18:59, April 24, 2014 (UTC)

digiegg
Rescue whatever can be cited. 14:17, July 7, 2014 (UTC)DigiTama (デジタマ Dejitama) are the source of all Digimon. (Dub: DigiEgg) DigiTama is a portmanteau of the words "Digital" and "Tamago" (卵), egg in Japanese, hence it is literally translated as "DigiEgg"

All Digimon are born from DigiTama. They come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and colors. They typically hatch into Baby I Digimon, but will sometimes hatch directly into a higher form, even an Adult Digimon like Numemon. It is possible for a single Digitama to produce twins. They can be produced in one of three ways:
 * Random data 'roaming' the Digital World may coalesce into a DigiTama.
 * After the death of a Digimon, its data will reincarate into a Digitama, usually in the deceased Digimon's lowest form.
 * After the death of a Jogressed Digimon, instead of reincarnating into two DigiTama, sometimes the two Digimon will be reborn as a single combined DigiTama with the potential to grow stronger than their previous forms.

NS Template
I don't understand how the ns template can be considered any more burdensome as a coding format than the default code was when it's already used in Level for Armor Digimon and no one complained about that. It seems rather arbitrary to use the default code here for Categories when the ns template is used for them elsewhere. Chimera-gui (talk) 17:47, January 16, 2015 (UTC)
 * Each usage is three characters longer for the exact same result. There's just really no point to it, in my view. 20:28, January 16, 2015 (UTC)
 * Except for the fact that ns removes Category: from the links' hoverboxes because of the the template's span tags. Chimera-gui (talk) 21:10, January 16, 2015 (UTC)
 * Okay, fine. 21:56, January 16, 2015 (UTC)

Gender
Second row in the center here, it specifically says something similar to "Digimon don't reproduce because they do not have gender." This only applies to null canon, obviously, since Xros Wars explicitly refutes it, but it would go a LONG way toward shortcircuiting a lot of the waffling and potential for debate we have on this page.

I'll try to translate eventually if I can find/create a transcription.

THANK YOU THEIGNO. 20:25, April 29, 2015 (UTC)
