Fiction
Digimon Adventure
A Tuskmon was first seen as a henchman of Myotismon. Phantomon brought him and Snimon to Aqua City where Yamato "Matt" Ishida and Sora Takenouchi were at and attacked them, punching Garurumon over a building. Kari Kamiya surrendered to Phantomon, making a deal that she would go with him if Tuskmon ended his rampage and Phantomon left Sora and Matt alone. Tuskmon was later knocked out by Zudomon and was absorbed by Myotismon's bats so that he could be revived as VenomMyotismon.
