Diaboromon (Adventure)

Diaboromon (Diablomon in the Japanese version) is a fictional character from the Digimon franchise. His name originates from diabolus, the Latin word for devil, and his design and actions are a reference to the Y2K Bug (in the dub, Diaboromon was instead a Digimon created by the DigiDestined Willis as a partner). In the movies, Diaboromon and Infermon are voiced by Paul St. Peter while Kuramon is voiced by Brianne Siddall.

Description
Diaboromon is the result of Infermon sucking up all the data of the network into a force of terrible strength, having power well beyond that of most Mega Digimon, he is the final antagonist for both the first and second series. Infermon hacked into a United States military computer and began launching nuclear missiles around the world, starting with Japan and, in the dubbed version, Colorado to kill the DigiDestined. When WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon began to overwhelm him, he digi-volved into Diaboromon, nearly killing both Patamon and Tentomon. However, when Tai's computer froze, WarGreymon was disabled, and MetalGarurumon was easily defeated by Diaboromon. He then cloned himself and made over 75 thousand copies of himself. At that moment, Tai and Matt entered the Internet through their computers, reviving their Digimon, whom DNA Digivolved into Omnimon. Omnimon destroyed all of his copies, but the remaining Diaboromon was too quick for Omnimon's cannons. Izzy forwarded emails to Diaboromon, causing him to lag, and Omnimon seemingly destroys him by impaling his head, disabling the clock of the missiles impact stored in his head. In the dubbed version, the virus that infected him would go onto to infect one of Willis's true partners, Kokomon.

However, Diaboromon had in fact survived from the previous battle and, during the late spring of 2003 (in Revenge of Diaboromon), he created billions of Kuramon that entered the Real World. Omnimon went back into the Internet to deal with him again and, with some help from Angemon and Angewomon (who held him down), Omnimon blew off his head and he was destroyed for good. But Diaboromon intended that so that he could live on in his Kuramon as they had all escaped to the Real World and eventually fused to become Armageddemon. Diaboromon's creator is Willis only in the dub in the original Willis is not referred to.

 Attacks
 * Web Wrecker (Catastrophe Cannon): Fires a powerful destructive energy bullet from the orb on his chest.
 * Cable Crusher: His arms extend to attack the enemy.

Other forms
The name "Diaboromon" refers only to the first Mega form of this Digimon. Throughout the series, Diaboromon takes a number of different forms, each with a different name and special attack. Diaboromon, however, is the form he most recognized in.

Kuramon


Kuramon hatched from a Digi-Egg that had formed on the Internet from a collection of viruses. In the dubbed version, it was instead hatched from a Digi-Egg that Willis created which was subsequently infected by a virus. Kuramon's mere presence on the internet wreaked havoc - phones stopped working and people were unable to board trains. Tai described him as "A cross between a jellyfish and a contact lense". This Digimon spoke in window messages, with its first word being "Hello!"

In Revenge of Diaboromon, Diaboromon reappears on the net, where he produces thousands of Kuramon which emerge into the Real World through cell phones and computers. The DigiDestined tried to round them all up, but when Diaboromon was destroyed by Omnimon, all the Kuramon escaped. The Kuramon went to Tokyo Bay and combined into Armageddemon. Not even Omnimon or Imperialdramon Fighter Mode could get the best of him until Omnimon's body became the Omni Blade for Imperialdramon Fighter Mode to use. Upon destroying Armageddemon, his body disintegrated into millions of Kuramon. Everyone used their Digivices and cell phones to capture them and send them all back to the Digital World.



Tsumemon


Tsumemon started eating computer data and causing havoc for cash registers worldwide as soon as its Digivolution was complete. Shortly after, Tsumemon digivolved into its Rookie form Keramon. Tsumemon, like Kuramon, only spoke in e-mails, and the first thing it said was "I'm hungry."

Keramon


It is unknown if this was originally intended to be a champion or rookie, as Izzy hints by its power seeming to be that of a champion. Ultimately, it was decided to be a rookie. Keramon caused more trouble on the Internet by eating data. To stop the virus-like Digimon, Tai and Izzy, with the help of Gennai, sent their partners Agumon and Tentomon to his whereabouts to fight him. However their attacks had no effect, so they digivolved to their Champion forms and attacked again but then Keramon also digivolved. However he skipped his Champion Form and digivolved straight to Ultimate, becoming Infermon.

The e-mail Keramon uses in the movie is "@@@@@@djm.factorymark.co.jp".

 Attacks
 * Bug Blaster:Keramon shoots orbs of destructive light from his mouth.



Infermon


The Ultimate level Infermon form was reached through Warp Digivolution, thus bypassing the Adult/Champion stage, Chrysalimon. In this form, Greymon and Kabuterimon had a hard time fighting him. To defeat the powerful Digimon, they also planned to Digivolve on their Ultimate Level but while there were Digivolving, Infermon attacked them while they were still transforming, resulting in their defeat; as well as breaking the forty-fifth rule of anime, the rule of uninterruptable tranformation sequences. Infermon then escaped and hacked himself in the US military network, from where he launched a nuclear missile on the DigiDestined. Agumon and Gabumon attacked him in their Warp Digivolved forms, WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon. However, as the tides were against him, he Digivolved into Diaboromon, nearly killing both Patamon and Tentomon, the former in particular knocked out from being attacked in the midst of Digivolution to Angemon. This greatly enraged Tai and Matt, and they began to pummel him, that is, until Tai's computer froze, causing WarGreymon to do the same. Without the help of WarGreymon, MetalGarurumon was easily defeated by Diaboromon, who then escaped and began to clone himself.

Attacks
 * Spider Shooter (Cocoon Attack): His mouth opens to reveal a barrel-like cannon.Shooting small flares

Armageddemon


Armageddemon appeared in Revenge of Diaboromon.

The group of Kuramon combined into Armageddemon at Tokyo Bay. His sheer size is noted as being so large, he can't even be returned to the internet. He confronted Omnimon (the mega digimon formed when Agumon and Gabumon warp DNA digivolve), who stabs a hole in Armageddemon's forehead with his Transcendent Sword and blasts the inside of his mouth several times with Supreme Cannon. This proved to be a mistake, for it allowed Armageddemon to release his Destiny Destroyer at point blank range upon Omnimon. After defeating Omnimon, he also made short work of Imperialdramon Fighter Mode. The combined power of WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon created the Omni Sword, reviving Imperialdramon and creating Imperialdramon Paladin Mode whose Omni Sword attack ultimately killed Armageddemon, releasing all the Kuramon's who were forever sealed within the Omni Sword, ending Diaboromon's rampage. Armageddon is the final battle between good and evil, which is reference to the fact that this is the final battle in the Adventures universe.

 Attacks
 * Destiny Destroyer (Ultimate Flare): Fires a solar-hot energy blast from his mouth.
 * Full Scale Attack (Black Rain): Launches a swarm of missile-like projectiles from his back.
