A Snimon was the head honcho at Wind Factory Incorporated. When it ran low on power, he had his Goblimon henchmen capture the Kokuwamon in the nearby forest and force them to work in his factory. The Kokuwamon fought back with the other Legendary Warriors and Snimon was defeated and purified by the debut of Beetlemon.

Trivia
It is interesting to note that Snimon bares a resemblence to the Scyther Pok√©mon, as both are taken from the preying mantis as templates.
