This article is about the ShadowSeraphimon, named BlackSeraphimon in Japanese, who appears in Digimon Frontier. For the Digimon with the same name in Japanese who appears in Digimon World 3, see BlackSeraphimon.

ShadowSeraphimon is a Seraph Digimon. It is another evil form of Seraphimon whose concealed inner resentment tumefied and engulfed it in darkness. Its ten shining gold wings have been steeped a dark bat-like purple, and its silver armor has transformed ominously.[5] It is said that it will fall to a Daemon if this condition persists for long.[6] One version of ShadowSeraphimon was formed from Mercurymon and Seraphimon's seized data, and possessed Mercurymon's tactics.[7]

Attacks

  • Strike of the Seven Dark Stars[8] (Seven Hells[9]): Fires seven super-heated spheres of darkness.
  • Shadow Starburst[10] (Testament): Performs its greatest special technique by sacrificing its mortal life to incinerate its enemy with hellfire. In Digimon Frontier it tackles the enemy, wraps its arms around them, and then electrifies them with its body.
  • Shadow Shockwave: Flicks its hand to release an invisible shockwave.

Quick Answers

What causes Seraphimon to transform into ShadowSeraphimon? toggle section
The transformation of Seraphimon into ShadowSeraphimon, or black seraphimon, happens in two scenarios. Firstly, when Mercurymon uses Seraphimon's Fractal Code, which he had concealed in Sakkakumon's Light Area. Secondly, after Seraphimon falls into a dark miasma post the ancient war, leading to his dedigivolution into MagnaAngemon and then Angemon.

What happens to ShadowSeraphimon if its condition persists for too long? toggle section
ShadowSeraphimon, if its state continues for an extended period, is predicted to succumb to a Daemon. This change is marked by a shift to a dark, bat-like purple hue and an ominous transformation of its silver armor. A variant of ShadowSeraphimon, created from the captured data of Mercurymon and Seraphimon, exhibited Mercurymon's strategic abilities. It can execute a unique move, Shadow Starburst, by forfeiting its mortal existence.

How does ShadowSeraphimon's appearance change from Seraphimon? toggle section
ShadowSeraphimon, also known as BlackSeraphimon, is a darker, more powerful version of Seraphimon. This transformation occurs when Seraphimon's hidden resentment is unleashed, turning its ten golden wings into a dark, bat-like purple and its silver armor into a menacing form. Despite the physical changes and increased strength, the Digimon's consciousness remains the same.

What are the tactics of ShadowSeraphimon that it inherited from Mercurymon? toggle section
ShadowSeraphimon, a fusion outcome of Mercurymon and Seraphimon's fractal code, utilizes Mercurymon's tactics. These tactics include moving between polished surfaces and drawing adversaries into the Light Area. It also stores fractal code data within itself for transformation and power enhancement. In combat, ShadowSeraphimon can force opponents to degenerate and can launch seven super-heated spheres of darkness, a move called Strike of the Seven Dark Stars.

What is the significance of ShadowSeraphimon's dark bat-like purple wings? toggle section
The dark bat-like purple wings of ShadowSeraphimon signify its transformation from an angel to a dark entity due to evil influences. Despite its ominous transformation, it retains loyalty to its master. The wings are part of its ominous transformation, which if persistent, might lead to its fall to a Daemon. They also facilitate powerful attacks like the Strike of the Seven Dark Stars and Shadow Starburst.
