Grani
Zero ARtifical MonSter Grani / "Zero ARMS Grani" (ゼロアームズ・グラニ zeroāmuzu gurani). Grani is a special type of Digimon that also serves as a transport vehicle. It was named after Sigurd's horse from Norse mythology (Gallantmon's lance, Gram, is named after Sigurd's sword). It even has its own card in the Card Game to equip to Gallantmon for him to ride on. Grani is voiced by Dave Mallow. Grani mainly serves as a "steed" for Gallantmon to ride on, and had Mitsuo Yamaki's Yuggoth Program installed. Grani was originally a rudimentary digital lifeform (though it soon evolved into a sentient Digimon), created by the 'Monster Maker' team with the aid of Hypnos as an 'ark' to bring the kids home from the Digital World, in the process developing a bond with Guilmon. Later the ark was modified and brought to the Real World by Henry Wong's D-Power in order to act as a flying 'steed' for Gallantmon to assist in fighting the D-Reaper. It was destroyed when it gave its data to Gallantmon, enabling him to Mode Change to Gallantmon Crimson Mode. Dave Mallow voices Grani in the English version and Masami Kikuchi in the Japanese version.

Digimon Tamers
In Digimon Tamers, the first Biomerged Digimon (termed 'Matrix Evolution/Matrix Evolved' in the Japanese version), Guilmon became Gallantmon when Takato Biomerged with him so they could fight Beelzemon together. The ensuing battle was fierce but Gallantmon managed to defeat Beelzemon. However, Gallantmon did spare the hostile Digimon on Jeri's pleas. Gallantmon eventually was a major power in the battle against the D-Reaper, playing a key role in confronting it, obtaining the ARMS "Grani" as his mode of transportation until it gave Gallantmon the power to transform into Gallantmon Crimson Mode for the final battle against the D-Reaper.

Runaway Locomon
After a Parasimon captured Rika, Takato and Guilmon Biomerged to save her. They were able to save Rika but found out that the Parasimon that controlled Locomon was trying to get other Parasimon to materialize in the Real World. Henry and Rika Biomerged with their Digimon to stop them but even after Justimon arrived to help, they were greatly outnumbered. In the end Takato refused to give up and enabled Gallantmon to power-up to Crimson Mode, who then used his Crimson Light attack to seal the hole the Parasimon used, causing all of the Parasimon to die.

Digimon Frontier
In Digimon Frontier, a Gallantmon was seen at the Autumn Leaf Fair running an armory there who was unable to help Zoe find the Toucanmon and the guys' D-Tectors (In the Japanese version, this one didn't talk while in the American version, he spoke with both voices).

Digital Monster X-Evolution
In Digital Monster X-Evolution, he is a member of the Royal Knights but because he questioned the intentions of the host computer, Yggdrasil, he acted individually. He tried to convince his close friend Omnimon that they were being used and that their Lord Yggdrasil's Project Ark was more than it seemed but Omnimon refused to hear it. The two Knights engaged in a brief battle in which Gallantmon was killed as a result; from his final words, it seems like his impalement on Omnimon's blade was intentional. However, Gallantmon was soon reborn as Gallantmon X.

Digimon World DS
Gallantmon evolves from WarGrowlmon. For some reason, despite being in the game, Gallantmon Crimson Mode doesn't evolve from the regular Gallantmon.

Digimon Savers
Currently, Gallantmon appears in the second opening of Digimon Savers, flying at the camera with his weapons at the ready.
