Kotemon's Digivolution
While it's true that Kyukimon has Kotemon's DDNA, nothing in DW3 says that Kotemon's next form is Kyukimon.Q-orca (talk) 16:02, November 20, 2015 (UTC)
 * Besides wouldn't Kotemon -> Kyukimon be a Warp Digivolution like Meramon -> SkullMeramon? Wikimon lists DinoHyumon as the intermediate form between Kotemon and Kyukimon. Chimera-gui (talk) 16:19, November 20, 2015 (UTC)
 * Quoting from DW:EVOLVE, As a rule of thumb, if you cause the Digivolution, it is not considered acceptable, but if you watch the Digivolution, it is.
 * Since Kotemon needs to meet a certain condition in order to digivolve into Kyukimon. Furthermore, Blast DV cannot be used as a valid source, since in this case, Kotemon can blast digivolve into GranKuwagamon or MaloMyotismon. And assuming that it can be treated as warp DV, "A standard for using this list on species articles, considering that there are multiple instances of the same digivolution, is that the highest instance on the list is the one that should be cited." (DW:EVOREF). As a result, the revert shouldn't happened.--Q-orca (talk) 17:29, November 20, 2015 (UTC)
 * Kyukimon was cited because the game directly states the DDNA requests as the Ultimates of the associated Rookies. You talk to the Rookie's DRI agent, they request you get the DDNA of the Ultimate, you do, you get the Rookie as a partner. That's what we're citing, not the in-game Kotemon > Dinohyumon > Kyukimon, which is still a player-aided evolution. Yes, Kotemon>Kyukimon would be a warp evolution, as it's skipping levels, but until we get a Dinohyumon > Kyukimon that actually meets DW:EVOLVE, we can't claim that we have -- if we discount the DDNA links, that removes any support for Kotemon eventually evolving to Kyukimon. "Breaking warp links" requires finding additional sources, not discounting the present ones. Petition Masters for a SlashAngemon line, they love doing that shit. 18:38, November 20, 2015 (UTC)
