Digi-Egg (Armor)

Digi-Eggs, known as Digimentals (デジメンタル Dejimentaru) in the Japanese version, are rare and ancient items used in the Digimon Adventure 02 animé series, the Digimon card games, and various video games. In total, there are fifteen Digi-eggs, four of which have never been shown in the animé series or movies, and of those four, only one has been depicted in the card game. They allow digimon to perform an ancient type of digivolution known as Armor Digivolution (アーマー進化) in the Japanese version, which was used more commonly in ancient times in the place of normal digivolution. The Digi-Eggs were rebuilt by Ryo Akiyama and Ken Ichijouji over the course of Digimon Adventure 02: Tag Tamers.

In Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01, however, there is another artifact called a Digimental entirely unrelated to those which are used for Armor Digivolution. Instead, this one was much more powerful; it allowed digivolution into the Super Ultimate level.
