Unknown family]] Karatenmon is a Wizard Digimon whose name and design are derived from the mythological Karasu-tengu (烏天狗? lit. "Crow goblin"). It was adopted from a winning entry in the "Digimon Web Dot-art Contest" which belonged to Masaki Shima from Ibaraki prefecture. It has an appearance like a Shugenja. It is a follower of the great Tengu Digimon, and its face is the epitome of a crow. It excels in Shugendo, and freely manipulates its Genriki. The two swords that Karatenmon possesses are called the "Irataka" (伊由太加の剣 Irataka no Ken?, lit. "Irataka Swords"), and contain strong magical powers.[3] As a wandering warrior, it has been taught by many masters and gained arcane abilities.[4]

Another Karatenmon guards the Code Crown of the Shinobi Zone, and would only relinquish it if he could be made to laugh. Xros Heart and a group of Etemon traveled to a waterfall he was meditating under, and performed many comedy acts to try and elicit a laugh. In the end, Angie and Nene's bokke skit managed to make him laugh. Shinobi Zone, The Comical Ninja Battle!
