Pumpkinmon is a Puppet Digimon. It is a plush toy Digimon with a surreal pumpkin head that has an axe stuck in it. According to legend, Pumpkinmon came to be when mutations developed in a computer virus created during the season of the Western holiday of "Halloween". Because it was never a malignant virus, it rarely inflicts any harm on purpose, but its external appearance belies its possession of powerful offensive ability.[3] As is characteristic of Puppet Digimon, its blank face rarely expresses emotions, so what it's thinking is indecipherable and its personality is wrapped in mystery.[4]
