Pistmon is a Vegetation Digimon. It digivolved via a training program used by road racers. Its bicycle-like wheels and body are fully integrated with each other, and it has a remarkable sense of balance that allows it to stand still even when it is not running. Its thorny vines, which act as tires, are capable of changing shape, allowing it to run across even rough roads speedily without going flat.[1] It is a good friend of BlackGatomon Uver., who is often seen riding on its back while performing deliveries.[2]
