'''Orochimon''' is a Demon Dragon Digimon whose name and design are derived from the mythological {{nihongo|[[wikipedia:Orochi|Orochi]]|大蛇}}. It was adopted from a winning entry in the "[[Bandai-Town FAX Service Digimon Illustration Contest]]" which belonged to Noritake Furuta from [[wikipedia:Niigata Prefecture|Niigata prefecture]]. It is gigantic and possesses eight heads, though seven of them are dummies, and the black one in the middle is the only real one. The dummies are able to regenerate if damaged or destroyed and the true head is reinforced with tough scales to avoid harm by most hits. The roots of Orochimon's creation are old, and even in the ancient [[Digital World]] its menace was a thing immemorial, but although it was a being that could drive an Area to the very brink of destruction, it was sealed due to the tamer of a "being" which sought to preserve the harmony of the Digital World.<ref>[http://digimon.net/cat-digimon-dictionary/01-a/orochimon/index.html ''Digimon Dictionary'': Orochimon]</ref>

Unknown family]] Orochimon is a Demon Dragon Digimon whose name and design are derived from the mythological Orochi (大蛇?). It was adopted from a winning entry in the "Bandai-Town FAX Service Digimon Illustration Contest" which belonged to Noritake Furuta from Niigata prefecture. It is gigantic and possesses eight heads, though seven of them are dummies, and the black one in the middle is the only real one. The roots of Orochimon's creation are old, and even in the ancient Digital World its menace was a thing immemorial, but although it was a being that could drive an Area to the very brink of destruction, it was sealed due to the tamer of a "being" which sought to preserve the harmony of the Digital World.[2]

Digimon Xros Wars

Orochimon is a member of the Bagra Army and serves under MadLeomon. It is contained in a cage but released by MadLeomon in order to crush resistance in the Green Zone. MadLeomon sends it after Taiki Kudou, Zenjirou Tsurugi, and Akari Hinomoto when he discovers them in the forest, and Orochimon proceeds to trap them against a cliff-face. Before it can finish the humans off, however, Shoutmon and Ballistamon intervene. Orochimon is then absorbed by MadLeomon to form MadLeomon (Orochi Mode), and when that form is defeated, Orochimon is deleted. Shoutmon, Roar!

Orochimon can Burst Digivolve from Reppamon.

Orochimon appears in the fourth Northwest area of Forest Coliseum and can be unlocked by winning the "Power" mini-game.
