Puppetmon

Puppetmon is a Puppet Digimon. It was built from the body of a cursed Cherrymon, and it is thought that it was probably constructed from Cherrymon's data by a single fiendish hacker. It has an appearance like a, but it can move under its own volition. Its personality is detestable, as it tells fibs, and when a computer presents false information, it is the work of Puppetmon.

The group try and convince Garurumon to escape with them, though multiple Puppetmon arrive as their conversation ended up being too long.

The Puppetmon ask Garurumon to re-join them and kill the kids, though he refuses and evolves to.
