Talk:Trailmon (Worm)

I would interpret the DRB profile as applying to all Trailmon (excl. Battle Armament), and maybe we need to discuss combining them all into one page as one species? At the least, I don't think the katakana should omit the Worm bit. 15:48, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I had suggested this myself under the belief that, like numerous species of Appmon, Trailmon is a singular species whose individuals can vary in appearance. While TMS supported the idea, Devkyu brought up Trailmon having multiple profiles in one of the artbooks though TMS and I noted that Ball's card states its species name as being just "Trailmon" and that "Ball" is a nickname.

 * In that case, we can still treat them as separate species, but I believe the DRB profile applies to all of them (as with other Digimon with multiple appearances). 17:48, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
 * The issue I have with Devkyu's interpretation however is that I personally believe that the art book profiles were for the Trailmon as characters rather than them as (sub)species since these profiles are very specifically tied to which Trailmon transported who and when during Frontier, a level of specificity that is typically a huge red flag for me regarding Digimon as characters vs Digimon as species. Again, Ball's card explicitly states that Ball is the Trailmon's nickname, not a (sub)species designation so it seems very likely that this applies to the profiles in the art book as well.

Additionally the idea of these Trailmon being (sub)species doesn't work when we add the unnamed variants from Next and the countless Trailmon in Xros Wars. Chimera-gui (talk) 19:55, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
 * combining them as one page would probably be better than duplicating this DRB profile onto 50 different trailmon pages.Marcusbwfc (talk) 20:55, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
