Guardromon (Gold)

Guardromon (Gold) is a Digimon. It is the guardian of the Chrome Digizoid mine, transformed to withstand the repeated, relentless raids from illegal miners. This is supposedly the result of Guardromon's armor taking in the Chrondigizoit dust data floating in the air, making it more durable than a normal Guardromon's armor. In exchange, however, the armor is heavier and its movements are consequently sluggish.

A Solarmon hires Keisuke Amasawa to find out how it can get a glorious golden body, just like its boss - Guardomon (Gold). Keisuke and Solarmon then hack into the area that Guardromon guards, to intentionally get its attention. When it shows up, it is in no mood to talk as it has to deal with the hacker who just got into the system. Keisuke defeats it however, though when explaining why he was here, the Guardromon explains that it once used to be a Solarmon, so the Solarmon just needs to work hard and it'll eventually digivolve and gain a golden body too. The Solarmon is ecstatic to learn this, whilst the Guardomon is happy that a real hacker wasn't the one to get in, though states it'll need to work even harder to keep the area safe. The two then thank Keisuke, who then leaves.
