However, Tai gives him the signal to just save Matt and Meiko, which Omnimon agrees with, and successfully does so reverting back to and.

With this new power, Omnimon quickly destroys Ordinemon, which results in Meicoomon's death, before reverting back to the partner Digimon's In-Training forms.

Five years later Greymon and Garurumon warp DNA digivolve together to form Omnimon during their fight with in their attempt to free all the DigiDestined it had stolen the consciousnesses of. Before Omnimon is able to defeat Eosmon it suddenly glitches and reverts back into Agumon and Gabumon. Izzy assumes the Cyber Space they were in must've caused it, however Menoa Bellucci explains that the older they get the weaker their Digimon get and that they would eventually lose their partners forever, and that that is why Omnimon's DNA Digivolution reverted. Agumon and Gabumon later warp DNA digivolve together again to form Omnimon to fight and its army of Eosmon (Ultimate) whilst in the Never World. Omnimon is able to destroy thousands of Eosmon (Ultimate) but it is easily defeated by Eosmon (Mega) and reverts back to Agumon and Gabumon.

Soon after dark digivolving, Ophanimon Falldown Mode reacts to Kari's breakdown at Tai's apparent death and forced DNA digivolve with Raguelmon to become Ordinemon. Her raw power opens up a portal to the Real World, and she flies through.

Ordinemon's power allows the Real World to begin being swallowed up by the Digital World. According to, she has so much power that she can barely control it, rendering her actions mindless and emotionally-driven, although some connection to her partners remains. She easily defeats the DigiDestined's partner Digimon in multiple battles, forcing them to focus on distracting her to mitigate the damage she causes just by existing. Homeostasis decides to initiate a reboot on the Real World in order to deal with Ordinemon, which would have the side-effect of essentially erasing all of humanity's technological progress associated with digital devices. In the meantime, Hackmon exploits Ordinemon's connection to Meiko by having her draw Ordinemon to the sea to minimize casualties. There, human authorities set up a military ambush, but it also proves ineffective against Ordinemon. As the countdown to the reboot ticks down, Izzy discovers a locked file hidden within Ordinemon's data that was created from an intersection between Meicoomon and his own backup field. When Meiko unlocks the file, light spills forth and restores the memories that were lost during the reboot. The process takes time though, and Ordinemon begins to split into light and dark halves before trying to flee. Acknowledging the miracle formed from the bond between humans and partner Digimon, takes flight and stalls Ordinemon's advance before slicing  out of the fusion. The restoration succeeds, and the reboot is halted. Unfortunately, takes advantage of the situation and replaces Gatomon with new files. Just as Meiko is about to be killed by one of Ordinemon's attacks, Tai returns to the battlefield, resolved to end the conflict once and for all. The entire team digivolves to Mega and renews their attacks on Ordinemon, and then Tai's, Matt's, and Meiko's Digivices begin to shine white, combining the Digimon into. With this newfound power, Omnimon manages to destroy Ordinemon. Freed from her suffering, Meicoomon thanks Meiko before she dies, happily waving goodbye.

On the day Spiral Mountain was formed, Sukamon fell into a deep crack and died. Chuumon was left alive to fend for himself until the DigiDestined arrived. He sacrificed himself to protect Mimi from a knife thrown by when he selected her to die first. When the and  were defeated, both Digimon were reborn.

Three years later, the same Sukamon and Chuumon tried to get Mimi to go out with them after broke  free of the Dark Spiral. Mimi responded by punching them across the lake. Mimi also refers to Sukamon as a 'lemon custard' and not a turd.

Chuumon is seen briefly when the partner Digimon regain their memories.

Digitamamon


Digitamamon was first seen running a diner with Vegiemon who made Joe and work off their bills, due to the fact that Digitamamon accepts only  instead of the  (Digi-Dollars in the dub) that Joe had on him. Matt arrives to help Joe work off his bill and to ensure the safety of Joe when Digitamamon made a threat about "accidents" after paid him in dollars to keep Matt at his diner.

DemiDevimon told Matt that Joe was deliberately causing accidents so Matt would stay there forever. Matt eventually blew up and yelled at Joe. However, when Tai,, T.K. and found them, Matt decides to leave. Digitamamon, knowing he'll lose money, grew large and attacked. Vegiemon grabbed T.K. and held him by his ankle; Joe daringly jumps on Vegiemon, which freed T.K. and proved his reliability. Matt was stunned at how Joe tried to protect T.K. even after he yelled at him. Matt's thought of friendship allowed to digivolve to  and defeat Digitamamon.

In Digimon Adventure 02, Digitamamon runs a restaurant near the lake and the bill caused trouble for Yolei. When she tried to pay, Digitamamon said that he only accepted digi dollars. However, Mimi and appear with  and, who paid the bill for the gang. T.K. realized this was the same Digitamamon that forced Joe and Matt work in his restaurant. However, Digitamamon explains that's he a changed person since the ordeal and is now on the level. He even waives the bill, saying that it is on him. Everyone, except a still-annoyed Yolei, believed he was telling the truth.

When a Gorillamon under the control of the Dark Spiral attacked, Digitamamon threw himself in front of the DigiDestined and was sent flying. After Gorillamon was freed, Digitamamon rolled back. But this time, he had an unseen Dark Spiral in his shell and it regressed him to his evil self. When, and 's attacks couldn't get though his shell, Mimi tried to convince Digitamamon that he wasn't evil, but Digitamamon tackled her. That made Yolei angry and her talk of her trying to be sincere activated the Digi-Egg of Sincerity. Halsemon dedigivolved to and became. Shurimon used the shuriken on his back to keep Digitamamon's shell open as and  trapped him. Shurimon used his Double Star attack and destroyed the Dark Spiral, freeing Digitamamon from its influence. A later episode would find the DigiDestined encountering him as the chef of yet another restaurant, with a Tapirmon serving as a waiter (In the Japanese version it was a different Digitamamon). The two of them attempted to assist the DigiDestined with stopping from destroying the last Destiny Stone (which was revealed to be the reason Digitamamon's soup tasted so good) by attacking  and, only to get wrapped up in bandages for their troubles. After the battle, he gave the DigiDestined a free meal.

His voice is an impression of actor.

Otamamon, Gekomon, and ShogunGekomon
The first ShogunGekomon seen was in a castle where his Otamamon and Gekomon servants worked, here being called simply "Shogunmon" by his subjects. A long time ago he lost a contest and thus fell into a deep sleep out of sorrow. The Gekomon and Otamamon were told by DemiDevimon that Mimi was the one to wake their master by singing. Tai, Joe, and  also tried to sing, but they failed because of their "wonderful" voices. Mimi then was convinced to sing completely because of the lesson she learned valuing the importance of friendship over wealth. When that finally happened, he woke up grumpy and started to attack everyone and everything. digivolved to to save Mimi from being flattened from the falling ceiling and  used his Giga Blaster attack to knock ShogunGekomon unconscious again. Later, when the attacked, a bunch of Gekomon and Otamamon from the castle assisted the DigiDestined in the final battle against Piedmon and Vilemon. It is implied by the Gekomon and Otamamon that ShogunGekomon had been killed by the Dark Masters.

Three years later (in Digimon Adventure 02) in the Night Forest, a small group of same Gekomon and Otamamon that were friends with Mimi ended up under the control of the Digimon Emperor's Dark Rings and were freed when and  took down the Roachmon Brothers and the Control Spire. Sometime later, the same Gekomon and Otamamon have found a new ShogunGekomon as leader. Later, in a village under the control of the Dark Rings, the members of ShogunGekomon's group were found hiding underground and offered hospitality to the DigiDestined. A Ninjamon slipped a Dark Spiral on ShogunGekomon while he and the DigiDestined were sleeping (as his solution to the Digimon Emperor taking over his territory was going to sleep and his love of sleeping was a running gag at this point), he went on a rampage. and tricked him into attacking the Control Spire and he was knocked unconscious by  and. Raidramon,, Digmon, Pegasusmon, and Nefertimon destroyed the Dark Spiral.

The most prominent Gekomon that appears in these seasons has a lisp that slurs his words and lengthens the S of his words. He appears to be the unofficial leader of the other Gekomon and Otamamon.

Gotsumon and Pumpkinmon


Gotsumon and Pumpkinmon were supposedly minions of, although they would rather have had it be otherwise. Dispatched to search for the Eighth Child, Gotsumon and Pumpkinmon ended up in Shibuya, where they became enthralled by the culture and populace of Earth and immediately set about exploring, having fun and generally causing trouble. It was only when they pulled a teenage girl's nose ring that they encountered Matt, T.K. and as they were searching for  (due to an argument he and T.K. had earlier). After explaining that they just wanted to have fun, the two carried on their mischief, with Matt and T.K. trying in vain to get them out of trouble. But after the two stole some ice cream, Myotismon appeared and was angered to find the two slacking off. He ordered them to attack the brothers and, and they had no choice but to comply. As soon as they got far enough away from Myotismon, however, they simply quit as they did not want to hurt the DigiDestined. Enraged, Myotismon attacked them. They tried to fight back but they were no match for his power. His Grisly Wing attack killed them (in the English dub, they were condemned to his dungeon in the ). They are not seen again, although they are remembered by Matt and T.K., who later comment that they miss the two Digimon.

Though these particular Digimon do not show up in the next season (however a group of Gotsumon are shown) they are remembered by T.K. and Matt. Matt comments "I really miss those guys."

Gotsumon and Pumpkinmon somehow find themselves in the world of Digimon Frontier. They work as ticket officers for the train in Shibuya, that leads to the, taking the tickets of , , , , , and. Due to being distracted, they accidentally depart alongside the DigiDestined. Due to the frustration of being trapped in the train, the duo decides to make a mess and attack, accidentally attacking Loweemon. This angers Loweemon, who Slide evolves to in anger and then proceeds to break a window, which sucks Gotsumon and Pumpkinmon out of the train. The duo then return to Shibuya.

Gotsumon and Pumpkinmon also appear in Digimon Masters as part of the June 2019 Odaiba update, which follows the events from Digimon Adventure in which tries to find the Eight Digidestined.

Heso-ishi
The Heso-ishi (へそ石) is a stone in Rokkaku-dō that is said to protect the center of Kyoto. It has protected the city's center for 1000 years. Despite being a stone, it is aware and is able to speak.

In 2001, when the power of the is not in balance with the Real World, it causes the Heso-ishi to turn upside down and affect Kyoto, Gennai sends the 's Digimon to the Real World for them to try to balance Kyoto's four directions. stands on top of the stone, representing the, while , , , and gather around it, representing the. After the powers are balanced, the Heso-ishi is still upside-down, and tries to ask it to go back to normal, but the stone answers that it knows its place. The Heso-ishi also complains about people treating it without respect, even though it is the guardian of Kyoto. Although the DigiDestined claim to respect the stone, the Heso-ishi accuses them of being simply "verbal" and asks them to show their sincerity. Mimi and interpret "sincerity" as "giving flowers", and Rosemon uses her "Roses Rapier". Although the other DigiDestined get scared about Rosemon using an attack, and fear the stone might get angrier and destroy Kyoto, the Heso-ishi likes the flowers' sweet scent and returns to its position.
