Later on he digivolved to Ikkakumon when the Black-Gear-infected Unimon attacked them.

When the kids returned to the Real World to halt the plans of Myotismon, on August 3, Joe and T.K. tried to get back to Odaiba. However, they were ambushed by MegaSeadramon while they were passing Rainbow Bridge. Joe saving T.K. from drowning gave Ikkakumon the power to Digivolve to Zudomon, who defeated MegaSeadramon and became a needed ally in the battles against Myotismon, the Dark Masters, MetalEtemon and Apocalymon. But before they went their separate ways, Joe thanked Gomamon for being a good friend.

Second Season (Digimon Adventure 02)
One year after their adventure, Joe and Gomamon were reunited in the series Digimon Adventure 02

Joe gave up his Crest power to free the Sovereigns and as a result, Gomamon lost the power to become Zudomon. Two years later, when the Digimon Emperor was conquering the Digital World, Gomamon was among the old generation Digimon to help the new gang out. One such event was when Gomamon challenged the Emperor when he was forcing some Gizamon to build a Control Spire in the frozen north, but he was attacked by the Gizamon, who were promised a reward by the Emperor if they did so. He was left for dead but the second group of DigiDestined managed to save him and, together, they destroyed the finished Control Spire.

He also came to the Real World on Christmas Eve and on Christmas day, he helped to gather the Digimon who appeared world-wide along with Control Spires, receiving a power boost from one of the DigiCores of Azulongmon, restoring his ability to Digivolve to Ultimate. But the next day, during the battle with SkullSatamon of the Daemon Corps, the strain of being in the Real World got to Gomamon so he and the others had to return but not before sacrificing the energy to go Ultimate to power up Imperialdramon to Fighter Mode. He was later seen sealing the Hikarigota Gate and in the final battle against MaloMyotismon.

Digimon Frontier
Many unrelated Gomamon are seen as minor characters in Digimon Frontier. A group of Gomamon were separated from their Gomamon friends on Goma Island by whirlpools. In a later episode some Gomamon were seen at the Autumn Leaf Fair during both visits.

V-Tamer
A Gomamon that was named Gon appeared in Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01. Gon the Gomamon lives in the Net Ocean.

He often swims in the ocean, despite the fact that the evil MarineDevimon has surfaced to attack anyone who attempts to swim near the Tag of Sea. But Gon takes the risk to keep in contact with Whamon, the Net Ocean Protector, and keep him up to date on activities. At first, he thought Taichi was stupid for training Zeromaru to swim. However, the human-Digimon combo proved to Gon that Digimon have limitless possibilities. Thus, he resolved to fight with them, and he became braver, too. Eventually, after MarineDevimon was defeated, Gon digivolved to Ikkakumon and inherited the position of Net Ocean Protector from Whamon.
