Divermon is a Sea Animal Digimon. It is clothed in a wetsuit, has a cheerful personality, and is always swimming around the "Net Ocean".

Fiction[]
Digimon Adventure[]
Digimon Adventure 02[]
When Kari went to the shores of the Dark Ocean, she encounters what she believed to be Scubamon cuffed in Dark Spirals who have been contacting her through visions. When Kari manages to free them from their bounds through Angewomon, the "Divermon" are revealed to be actually larger shadowy creatures that served Dragomon and try to take Kari with them. However, with a warning shot from Angewomon, the creatures are forced to give up and fall back into the Dark Ocean to reunite with Dragomon. An error with this episode is that they were called "Scubamon", though may it have been intended to separate them from normal Divermon. These creatures' true forms were homage to the Deep Ones of Lovecraft literature.
Some Divermon were seen during the final battle against MaloMyotismon.
Digimon Adventure tri.[]
Maki Himekawa defends herself from the Scubamon with the bazooka she had brought with her to the Digital World, as she had somehow found herself in the Dark Ocean.[citation needed]
Digimon Tamers[]
After being separated from their friends by a Data Stream, Takato Matsuki, Henry Wong and Terriermon wound up on the water plain of the Digital World, where they met some Otamamon, who swam away from them. Divermon appeared and attacked the trio, thinking they had attacked the Otamamon. Henry managed to knock his spear away and crash him into some rocks and Terriermon finished him off with a Terrier Tornado. He then apologized and they asked him if he could lead them to someplace that wasn't made of water. He led them to a pipe, which took them to a crossroads of many tubes, where they met some DigiGnomes, who led them to Shibumi's library.
Neil Kaplan voices Divermon in the style of Bullwinkle J. Moose.[7]
