Mikey Kudo

Taiki Kudou (工藤タイキ) is a character in the Digimon Xros Wars series. Taiki is described in V-Jump magazine as "a hot-blooded 7th grader who saves the weak." He leads the red "Xros Heart" army, and is partnered with Shoutmon. Dorulumon, Starmon, Ballistamon and Cutemon also accompany him. Taiki's childhood friend Akari Hinomoto and "eternal rival" and classmate Zenjirou Tsurugi complete the posse. He is athletic and cannot turn down a challenge. He has genius capabilities but is naive about his prodigy abilities. His father is a sports trainer who travels throughout Japan.

Taiki possesses a Xros Loader Digivice, which allows Shoutmon to "Digi-Xros", a new Digivolution mechanic where various Digimon can fuse together. One of the resulting Digimon is Shoutmon X4, which is made up of Shoutmon Digi-xrossing with Dorulumon, Starmon and Ballistamon.

Description
Like most of the lead protagonists, Taiki wears goggles. Interestingly, his design resembles a "fusion" of traits of previous male leads. He seems to have a mix of Taichi "Tai" Kamiya's and Takuya Kanbara's hairstyles, with Tai's white gloves, Davis Motomiya's hair color, Takato Matsuki's blue shirt, pants and tennis shoes, and the reddish vest colors from both Takuya and Marcus Damon.
