I'm a huge fan of Digimon Adventure 01 who believe the other seasons are too crappy to be considered cannon. One of the reasons for this staunch standpoint is that while the plot of Season 1 is quite simply awesome, all subsequent seasons are characterized of being improvised and unneccesary sequels. The story could have ended when all evil was eradicated with the death of Apocalymon, but instead they made it reappear in a completely unlikely and senseless way.

This page will contain a table where the digimons of Season 1 are placed in different categories depending on their fighting abilities, and some fanfiction as well.

Digimons of Season 1 by level
The following table is based on my personal analysis of the fighting ability of each Digimon in the first season.

=Good Digimon=

Angemon
Angemon is the Champion form of Patamon, and make his first appearence when Devimon had defeated Greymon, Garurumon, Birdramon, Togemon, Kabuterimon and Ikkakumon, who despite putting together all their strenght were easily beaten by their powerful foe. Devimon then attempted to kill T.K., causing Patamon to finally digivolve into Angemon. Angemon gathered the combined powers of all of the seven DigiDevices, and used his hand of fate against Devimon. Devimon was destroyed by this powerful attack, but this came at a price - Angemon used up all his energy and, as a result, de-Digivolved into a Digi-Egg.

Much later, when  had a square-of with  in the Real World, Angemon intervened when Myotismon was about to kill WereGarurumon with his Crimson Lightning. Myotismon initially made fun of Angemon, but was soon forced into retreat when Angemon joined forces with WereGarurumon and inflicted unexpected damage on him.

When the real confrontation between Myotismon and the DigiDestined took place, Lillymon, MetalGreymon, WereGarurumon, Zudomon, MegaKabuterimon and Garudamon launched a combined assault on Myotismon, but he did not even suffer minor injuries. Angemon then appeared on the scene and attacked with his hand of fate, causing Myotismon to fall down on his knees in agony and killing Phantomon in the process. However, instead of fighting back, Myotismon launched his Grisly Wing towards Hikari in a last attempt to kill the eight DigiDestined, causing Gatomon to Digivolve into her Ultimate form Angewomon. She used the combined powers of all of her allies and finally defeated Myotismon.

Attacks
 * Hand of Fate: Angemon fires a beam of sacred energy from his fist.
 * Angel Rod: A strike using the staff he carries.
 * Angel Staff: Spins his staff to block incoming attacks.

MagnaAngemon


MagnaAngemon is Patamon's Ultimate form, and appeared when Piedmon, the last of the Dark Masters, had wiped out all the DigiDestined children and their Digimon and turned them into key chains. Angemon was able to inflict some minor damages on Piedmon, but was inevitably defeated. However, he then finally Digivolved into MagnaAngemon, and easily overwhelmed Piedmon with his Excalibur. Using the Magna Antidote ability, MagnaAngemon restored all the DigiDestined and their Digimon before he finished off Piedmon with his Gate of Destiny.

MagnaAngemon seems to only appear when the world is in serious danger. When destroyed numerous Destiny Stones, and after the DigiDestined had failed repeatedly to defeat him, Patamon Digivolved into MagnaAngemon and challenged a yet unbeaten BlackWarGreymon. With his Gate of Destiny, he forcibly expelled BlackWarGreymon to a different corner of the Digital World and inflicted serious damages on him in the process. Despite having the ability to settle it and kill BlackWarGreymon there and then, it is believed he decided not to because he was aware that there was actually good in him. Strangely enough, he didn't intervene the next time BlackWarGreymon attempted to destroy a Destiny Stone, presumably because he already knew the outcome of that battle - namely, the arrival of Azulongmon, who made BlackWarGreymon rethink his intentions and caused him to leave the scene in a melancholic state.

MagnaAngemon are present during the fight with SkullSatamon. Despite being hit by his extremely powerful Skull Hammer, he neither de-Digivolved nor sustained any injuries at all - unlike all other Digimon present, who de-Digivolved instantly. He then transferred a small portion of his energy to Imperialdramon Fighter Mode, allowing him to fire a deadly Positron Laser blast towards SkullSatamon which destroyed him in a single hit.

Attacks
 * Gate of Destiny: A large portal that sucks in the enemy Digimon, either destroying them or forcibly transporting them away from the battle scene, taking their powers away in the process.
 * Magna Antidote: An unique all-purpose healing ability.
 * Excalibur: As the holder of the most powerful sword that exists, MagnaAngemon is able to destroy his enemies in a single, powerful strike.

Seraphimon


Seraphimon is Patamon's Mega form, and appeared for the first time when Daemon, the 3rd strongest of the Seven Great Demon Lords, had defeated Omegamon, Imperialdramon Fighter Mode and Imperialdramon Paladin Mode with his immense powers. Seraphimon beat Daemon with his Strike of the Seven Stars, causing him to disintegrate.

When Fanglongmon, the strongest of the Digimon Sovereigns, turned into an evil overlord, Seraphimon used his advantage of being a Celestial Digimon and defeated him with the help of Cherubimon, Ophanimon and Lucemon.

Seraphimon is one of the strongest Digimon alive, if not the strongest of them all. It is told that when he descends for the final battle against evil beings, he will purify everything.

Attacks
 * Strike of the Seven Stars: Fires seven super-heated spheres of sacred light at his opponents, wiping any of them out in a single hit.
 * Rising Halo: Uses the to convert his mortal life into a, an ability only shared with Apocalymon.
 * Excalibur: Attacks with the holy sword Excalibur.
 * Hallowed Ascension: Calls down powerful bolts of divine lightning.
 * Seraph Antidote: Restores anyone to their full health, no matter how severe the damages inflicted on them might be.
 * Mega Defense: Creates an impermeable forcefield, protecting anyone inside from virtually any attack.

=Evil Digimon=

Apocalymon
Apocalymon is the main villain in the Digital World and the strongest of them all. His ultimate goal is to make both worlds descend into chaos, and created the four Dark Masters to achieve this. When the DigiDestined surprisingly enough defeated them all, he engaged them himself and demonstrated his ability to use the same attacks as all the villains he had created before Reverse Digivolving all of the DigiDestined Digimon to their base forms. He then deletes their Tags, Crests, and bodies, sending them all to the Data World.

To Apocalymon's surprise, the DigiDestined and their Digimon managed to re-emerge and attacked in their stronest forms. After, , , , and  had destroyed all of Apocalymon's claws,  and  destroyed his humanoid form. However, he was still far from being defeated, and prepared to use his Total Annihilation ability to destroy both worlds. However, the children's Digivices contained the attack, so all that it achieves was his own death. As a result, the Digital World reformated and the time difference between the two worlds equalized.

With Apocalymon dead, all remaining evil Digimon were no more than rests of his once so great empire. Although Digimon like SkullSatamon, Daemon and a few others caused trouble at some instances, none of them possessed a strenght even resembling that of Apocalymon.
