Machinedramon > HiMachineDramon
Upon rewatching the episode again, I don't believe that the scene depicts Machinedramon + SkullScorpionmon > HiMachineDramon. It looks more like Machinedramon's stealing energy from everyone in the area and using that to become HiMachineDramon. The scene depicts it literally eating the SkullScorpionmon (like no seriously, it left carcasses behind, how did this escape the censors?) until Laylamon begins the lightshow, which also includes the Fusion Fighters having their energy stolen, and then Machinedramon eats the resulting energy. Based on that interpretation of the scene, I believe it's just a straight Machinedramon > HiMachineDramon. What do you guys think? Lanate (talk) 03:54, March 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * Sounds good to me. Would that be similar to Paladin Mode, then? 16:30, March 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * I think so? If you're referring to the lack of merging, then yes. Lanate (talk) 23:51, March 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * No, I mean, we'd list it as "Machinedramon + SkullScorpionmon's data", right? 13:33, March 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't quite agree with that either. The main point I want to bring up is that MachineDramon was chomping on the Fusion Fighters' energy as well.  I interpret the scene it was just absorbing energy for a power-up as opposed to a fusion of any sort, and I kind of want other opinions rather than me making a unilateral change.
