His other attacks, as seen in cards and games, are:
 * Beetle Horn Attack (Horn Attack, Beetle Horn): Charges his horn with electricity, and attacks enemies with it.
 * Electric storm: Charges his body and arms with electricity, then flies around with the electricity attacking nearby opponents.

Digimon Adventure
Kabuterimon first appeared when he freed Andromon from the power of the Black Gear (thus being the first chosen Digimon to defeat an Ultimate in battle). He was also involved with battles against Devimon and Etemon. Izzy later gained the Crest of Knowledge allowing Kabuterimon to digivolve to MegaKabuterimon and defeat Vademon. Kabuterimon also appeared during the battles against Myotismon and the Dark Masters (some of the time he was in the form of MegaKabuterimon).

Our War Game
Tentomon digivolved into Kabuterimon in order to defeat Keramon. Keramon soon digivolved into Infermon, skipping the champion stage. Neither him nor Greymon or their respective partners were aware of this, and only realized after several attempts at attacking him had amounted to nothing. Afterwards, Infermon took a cheap shot, attacking him while he was left defenseless digivolving into MegaKabuterimon for a half second, turning him back into Tentomon,badly injured.

Digimon Adventure 02
Kabuterimon was later seen getting Izzy and Cody, as well as Armadillomon, away from the Digimon Emperor. His head's exoskeleton was used for the creation of Kimeramon. Kabuterimon later appeared at Christmas time when Digimon were invading Matt's concert.

Digimon Frontier
A Kabuterimon was among the Digimon seen capturing IceDevimon in Bokomon's story.
