'''Falcomon''' is a Rookie level Bird Digimon that lives in high mountains. There are two versions of Falcomon: old design and new design. The former is known for his ability to glide rather than fly, and will become [[Diatrymon]]. The latter is a ninja-like, flight capable version, and will become [[Peckmon]]. Incidentally, both versions resemble more an [[wikipedia:owl|owl]] than a [[wikipedia:falcon|falcon]].
 
 
The original design of Falcomon was used for the Digimon Accel V-Pet, while the newer one appears in [[Digimon Data Squad]] as well as [[Digimon World DS]]. Like [[Yatagaramon]] and [[Agumon]], the new design of Falcomon has now replaced the old one in most Digimon media.

Falcomon

Falcomon is a Bird Digimon whose name and design are derived from the Falcon. It lives up in 3000 m-high mountains, but as its wings are not very developed, it can only fly to the extent of gliding. However, since it is a powerful runner instead, it is able to run about the craggy mountains at great speed. Because it has a rough temperament, you will receive a fierce attack if you carelessly approach, so caution is necessary.[1]

Attacks

  • Scratch Smash: Scratches with its wing claws.
  • Falco Rush: Unleashes an attack using its powerful running ability.

Notes and References

  1. Digimon Dictionary: Falcomon
  2. Digimon Data Squad, "The Wild Boy of the Digital World" [14]
  3. Shuririnken (手裏裏剣?) is a play on words based on the direct translation of the name, the use of "rin" in splitting "shuri" and "ken" - shuriken being a common weapon associated with ninjas - implies dozens of smaller versions of a shuriken - in this case, it applies to the multitude of shuriken Falcomon uses in this attack.
  4. Uchitake itself is a ninja tool, so it remains untranslated as it is a proper noun.
