Poyomon's Digi-Egg was held by the Agents alongside T.K.'s Digivice and Tag, the Crest of Hope, and the other Digi-Eggs, Digivices, Tags, and Crests, but when Piedmon attacked their base and stole the tags and crests, Gennai took the Digi-Eggs and Digivices and escaped in a Mekanorimon.

While he normally appears to be harmless and cute, it is notable that when in danger Tokomon will open his mouth, which reveals layers of huge shark-like fangs. However, he is never seen using these fangs so it is likely they are just used as a scare tactic.

Unlike the other Armor Digimon, Pegasusmon was still needed after Ken reformed, mainly due to the fact that 's main attack, Hand of Fate, was useless against the Control Spire Digimon the DigiDestined had to face, as well as the fact that it's hard for T.K. to ride on Angemon.

Even Myotismon (an Ultimate level Digimon) had been unable to dissipate it, (he had been able to dissipate Ultimate-level attacks from the other DigiDestined's Digimon), although the attack itself was an ambush, and Phantomon (another Ultimate Digimon) was completely destroyed by it.

After the Digimon Emperor was defeated and his block against Digivolution lifted, Patamon had the natural ability to once again assume his Champion form. However, his main attack, Hand of Fate, was useless against the majority of Digimon the DigiDestined had to fight, since they where created from Control Spires. This meant they were not real Digimon and Angemon's attack only affected evil Digimon. For that reason, Pegasusmon was still used as his primary fighting form until Angemon and unlocked the power of DNA Digivolution.

When Diaboromon resurfaces on the net, Angemon and Angewomon appeared to help fight. The angels pinned him down as Omnimon impaled Diaboromon before he appeared in the Real World as.
