Kudamon (Data Squad)

Kudamon is a fictional character from the Digimon franchise, a Rookie-level Exalted Beast Digimon based on the mythical Kudagitsune, a Pipe Fox spirit. The Digimon partner of Commander Satsuma, Kudamon is calm and collected sort who carries out precise assessments of things and can progress through battle with superiority and smugness. It is said that he accumulates holy power in his left earring every day, intending to use the energy to evolve eventually.

Description
Though being based on a fox, Kudamon generally resembles a white ferret or weasel. Originally, this Digimon was designed with a grey metal choker or collar, purple markings, with a body that was constantly coiled around his weapon, a Holy Cartridge. When taking flight, his hind legs disappear and become a long, streaming tail. For his appearance in Digimon Savers, Kudamon was redesigned, with smaller forelimbs, golden markings, and a tail with a bell at the end of it. His collar was also changed into a Power Ring. This version has since replaced the original in most merchandise.

Digimon Savers


The Savers exclusive version of Kudamon serves as Rentarou Satsuma's advisor in matters relating the Digimon, and assists in the running of DATS. In times of danger Kudamon can Digivolve into Reppamon and/or Qilinmon.

It was later revealed that Kudamon is actually the Royal Knight Sleipmon, sent by Yggdrasil to keep an eye on the humans while undercover. However, overtime, Kudamon soon grew fond of the humans and therefore could not obey Yggdrasil's orders to exterminate them. He exposed his identity to Gallantmon and fought him to protect the DATS crew, their battle ending in a draw and leaving their fates unknown when they disappeared in Sleipmon's attack.
