Shoutmon (Fusion)

Shoutmon is one of the main characters in Digimon Xros Wars. He is the founder of Taiki Kudou's Xros Heart army, and his goal is to become king of the Digital World with Taiki's help. Shoutmon can DigiXros with other Digimon to reach stronger forms, and can digivolve normally as well.

Appearance
Shoutmon appears as a small, red dragon with blue eyes and a spiky mouth and a V-shaped forehead. He wears green headphones around his ears, and his joints appear to be held together by screws.

Description
Shoutmon is the main protector of the Village of Smiles, but he is heavily damaged during battle. Near death, he calls out for anyone who can aid him, and Taiki is the first to respond. When Shoutmon saves them from a falling van, Taiki agrees to help him out, and Shoutmon rests in his new Xros Loader. When MadLeomon attacks the humans with an army, Shoutmon appears with his allies Ballistamon, Starmon, and the Pickmons. Unfortunately, MadLeomon absorbs his allies to become Armed MadLeomon and proceeds to wipe the floor of his opponents, but Taiki uses Digi-Xros to first merge Shoutmon and Ballistamon into an incomplete Shoutmon X3 and then Shoutmon, Starmon, and the Pickmons into Shoutmon + Star Sword, who defeats Armed MadLeomon. Shoutmon then explains to the confused humans that they are in the Digital World and that Taiki would become their General.

However, after learning that Taiki intends to return home, Shoutmon pulls out all the stops in order to prevent it. He says that he wants to become the Digimon King, but Taiki rejects this dream because he thinks that Shoutmon wants it for himself. He does come to the rescue to protect the humans when MadLeomon appears again with an Orochimon. MadLeomon merged with Orochimon into MadLeomon (Orochi Mode) and then analyzes that Shoutmon is fast but has no tactical ability, so he beats down both him and Ballistamon. Shoutmon then reveals that he wants to be the Digimon King to protect his village, so Taiki has no regrets in aiding him now. Taiki DigiXroses Shoutmon and Ballistamon to Shoutmon X2 who, with the help of Starmon and the Pickmons, defeats MadLeomon.

In the Island Zone, Shoutmon starts freaking out when he learns of all the DigiNoir trees on the Island. He then teaches an idol of Xros Heart, ChibiKamemon, about being strong and brave. Shoutmon then helps the rest of Xros Heart defend the Island Zone against Neptunemon and the Mantaraymon fleet.

In the Magma Zone, during the fight with AncientVolcamon, when they realize the cave might collapse, Taiki gives up, causing Shoutmon to bug out. Then Taiki gives AncientVolca his X Loader, which is fake, to make him believe that they give up, which causes Shoutmon to bug out even more. This is because Shoutmon was too oblivious to realize Taiki's plan. Once Tactimon shows up and reveals Dorulumon's double life, Shoutmon isn't pleased. He is then forced retreat when Tactimon captures Dorulumon and Taiki.

In the Lake Zone, Shoutmon keeps watch for Lillithmon and IceDevimon when he spots Akari acting strange. He follows her, finding her talking to a "magic mirror," which is really a trick caused by Lillithmon, and acidentally breaks it. When she yells at him, he says it wasn't even a magic mirror. Akari then says she "hates the digital world." Shoutmon is later frozen by Daipenmon's Ice Wave.

In the Sand Zone, Shoutmon helps protect Taiki when Baalmon begins his hunt, and then helps search for Taiki when Blastmon releases his Crystal Bullets. He is later brainwashed by Ebemon along with Ballistamon, Dorulumon, Cutemon, and Deputymon, and attacks Taiki. Later he is cured, which is when Taiki commands Shoutmon to help him save Baalmon after he's poisoned by Lillithmon, surprising Shoutmon. After the Ressurection Pyramid is formed and Machinedramon attacks, Shoutmon is angered when Taiki refuses to create ShoutmonX4 because of Baalmon's healing process. But after hearing Taiki's touching speech, Shoutmon changes his mind about lashing out on Taiki and goes back to the battle.

In the Heaven Zone, Shoutmon, along with Taiki and Dondokomon are framed for breaking a symbolic statue and is sentenced to death until they escape, which fails and results in the entire army of Xros Heart to be sentenced to death. Later when Lucemon betrays them and unleashes the Temple of Darkness, he is paralyzed for a while until hearing about Lucemon's plan to become President of the Heaven Zone only so he would obtain the Code Crown. Then, he is angered enough so that he can move again and then attacks Lucemon. During the Nene rescue mission, Shoutmon and Dorulumon agree that they have a "weird general."

Attacks
 * Rock Damashī (ロックダマシー): Forms a ball of energy in the shape of an eighth note and throws it at the opponent.
 * Soul Crusher: Uses its mic to amplify the energy of the heated emotions blazing within its chest, then bashes the opponent. Because passion is the very source of the attack, it will definitely inflict damage no matter the target.
 * Rowdy Rocker: Wields its mic as in bōjutsu.

OmegaShoutmon
OmegaShoutmon is Shoutmon's digivolved form. In this form, Shoutmon is considerably more powerful than any of his DigiXrosed forms.

Attacks
 * Hard Rock Damashī (ハードロックダマシー): Changes the passion of his courage into flames that surge in his fists, with which he strikes the opponent when at close range, and hurls when at a distance.
 * Beat Slash: Changes his feet into blades by filling them with the passion of his fighting spirit, then uses them to kick and cut apart the opponent.
 * Heavy Metal Vulcan: Converts the passion of his overflowing friendship into firepower, as a hail of shots that he fires from his chest as both an attack and an impregnable wall that keeps his opponents away from his comrades.
