Synopsis
The mysterious man turns out to be Gennai, who lives on a nearby continent called Server. He tells the kids of other evil on his own continent which needs defeating, but it will only be possible to defeat with the power of certain crests and tags capable of making their Digimon digivolve once more. So, the group set about building a raft, and with the help of familiar faces on File Island, they're on the ocean in no time. However, they're soon consumed by the black gear possessed Digimon, Whamon. When they pull a black gear out of his stomach, they're thrust out of Whamon's blow hole, and the raft is in pieces. Whamon offers to take them to Server, but first takes them to the location of the tags which Gennai spoke of. After fighting past another possessed Digimon, Drimogemon, they find the tags, and set off once again to Server, on the back of Whamon.

Miscellaneous trivia

 * In the English dub, the music normally played during digivolution is changed to the actual Digimon Opening Theme (though with some of the vocals cut out). This remains throughout this series, and the next series.
