X-Program

The X-Program (Xプログラム X-Puroguramu) is a termination program initiated by Yggdrasil in the 8th digimon movie Digital Monster X-Evolution to eliminate 98% of digimon as a result of the exponential growth of digimon causing the Digital World to reach maximum capacity. When the X-Program was executed by Yggdrasil, 98% of the total digimon population was eliminated. The remaining 2% were transferred to the NEW Digital World where the X-Program could not reach them. However, a minority number of digimon strong enough to resist the effects of the X-Program were able to survive by changing their DigiCores. The digimon were reborn in a form that could take in the X-Program and eventually it came to a point where a program that opposed the X-Program was installed into the DigiCore - the X-Antibody.
