Veemon is the partner of Davis Motomiya, though before that was the partner of Ryo Akiyama.[2] Digimon Adventure 02: Tag Tamers
Appearance[]
In the English dub, Veemon speaks with a slight lisp (though this is perhaps to differentiate his voice from Ken Ichijouji's, as the two share the same English voice actor, Derek Stephen Prince). This is most evident in how he pronounces his partner's name as "Davish."
Of all the Adventure/02 Digimon, Veemon is the one with the most affinity for hand-to-hand combat, due to both his attacks and his personality. Veemon also demonstrates a crush on Gatomon. (In Davis Cries Wolfmon he has a dream that he and Gatomon were dancing and in A Very Digi-Christmas, (English Dub only) Ken teases Veemon about him and Gatomon under the mistletoe.)
Description[]
Veemon is one of the main characters in Digimon Adventure 02, and also appears in its two related movies Digimon Hurricane Landing!!/Transcendent Evolution!! The Golden Digimentals and Revenge of Diaboromon.
Veemon, along with Hawkmon and Armadillomon, are the three Digimon of ancient times who were sealed away by the Harmonious One Azulongmon, to be awakened again in a time of crisis. Veemon was freed in the first episode of Digimon Adventure 02 when Davis Motomiya lifted the Digi-Egg of Courage. Enter Flamedramon
Throughout Digimon Adventure 02, Veemon gains the ability to assume three different Armor formsāone from each of the three Digi-Eggs that its partner Davis Motomiya acquires. After the defeat of the Digimon Emperor, Veemon's natural champion form is unlocked, as well as the ability to DNA digivolve to Paildramon with Stingmon, and later even further to his Mega form, Imperialdramon.
In Diaboromon Strikes Back, Veemon (in the form of Imperialdramon Fighter Mode) is able to reach the Imperialdramon Paladin Mode form after Omnimon donated his power to Imperialdramon Fighter Mode.
Before the events of Digimon Adventure 02, Veemon was the partner to Ryo Akiyama and helped the latter to fight Millenniummon throughout the events of Tag Tamers and D-1 Tamers. If Ryo chooses to rescue Davis in Digimon Tamers: Brave Tamer, he can again partner with Veemon.
Veemon makes an appearance in Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01's special chapter "Double Tamer!! The Great Super Dimensional Battle!!" when he and the rest of the Adventure 02 group are fighting Parallelmon, only to be saved when T.K. pushes them away from his absorption attack.
Veemon is also usable as a fighter in Digimon BattleSpirit, Digimon Tamers: Battle Spirit Ver. 1.5, and Digimon Rumble Arena. He is also usable in whatever chapter Davis is in Digimon Tamers: Digimon Medley.
Attacks
- Vee Headbutt (V-mon Head): Knocks down the opponent with an intense headbutt.
Other Appearances[]
Digimon ReArise[]
In the Japanese version, between January 21, 2020 and February 5, 2020, Veemon and Davis Motomiya appeared as part of the login promotion screen to promote Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna. Upon completion of the Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna challenge between January 21, 2020 and February 21, 2020, the player is awarded with a Veemon wearing Davis' Goggles. In the English version, the event was between March 15, 2020 and April 12, 2020.
Other Forms[]
The name "Veemon" refers to only the Rookie form of this Digimon. Throughout the series, Veemon gains the ability to digivolve into a number of more powerful forms (each with a different name). The Rookie form, however, is its most common and preferred form.
Chibomon[]
Chibomon is the Fresh form of Veemon. Chibomon appears when Paildramon lose so much power that Veemon and Wormmon are no longer able to maintain their Rookie forms.
DemiVeemon[]
DemiVeemon is Veemon's In-Training form. Veemon takes on his In-Training form whenever he returns to the Real World with Davis Motomiya. DemiVeemon also sometimes appears when Veemon is forced to de-digivolve after a particularly difficult battle.
Attacks
- Pop Attack (Hop Attack): Rams into the opponent while hopping about.
Flamedramon[]
The name 'Flamedramon' comes from 'flame' and 'dra' as in dragon.
Flamedramon, the "Fire of Courage", is the form that Veemon takes when he armor digivolves using the Digi-Egg of Courage.
Flamedramon was Veemon's very first Digivolution, achieved almost as soon as Veemon was unsealed in the first episode of Digimon Adventure 02. Davis Motomiya's will to protect Kari Kamiya from an attacking Monochromon initially evoked the Digi-Egg's power, allowing Veemon to armor digivolve to Flamedramon to destroy Monochromon's Dark Ring. Enter Flamedramon
After Ken renounced his evil persona, Veemon gained the ability to reach his natural champion form, ExVeemon. ExVeemon took over the role of being Veemon's primary fighting form, and Flamedramon appeared again only a couple of more times.
Flamedramon made his last appearance in the Digimon Adventure 02 finale when the DigiDestined were transported to a dimension where (according to Gennai) "wishes can become reality". Here, Veemon was able to simultaneously digivolve into all of his forms, except for Magnamon.
In the movie, Veemon became Flamedramon to fight Kokomon, who had digivolved to Wendigomon. He was quickly taken down before Terriermon digivolved to Gargomon. Flamedramon later helped Gargomon, Halsemon and Digmon fight Kokomon, who digivolved from Wendigomon to Antylamon. When Antylamon digivolved to Cherubimon, the Armor Digimon were defeated. Digimon Hurricane Landing!!/Transcendent Evolution!! The Golden Digimentals
In Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01 special chapter "Double Tamer!! The Great Super Dimensional Battle!!", Flamedramon makes an appearance.

Raidramon, the "Storm of Friendship", is formed from Veemon digivolving with the Digi-Egg of Friendship. The Digi-Egg of Friendship first appeared during the fight against the MetalGreymon controlled by the Digimon Emperor. Davis' desire of wanting to help his friends evoked the Digi-Egg's power, allowing Veemon to armor digivolve to Raidramon and destroy the Dark Spiral controlling MetalGreymon. The Storm of Friendship
After Ken renounced his evil persona, Veemon was able to digivolve to his Champion form, ExVeemon. Raidramon was no longer needed as a fighting form, but as he is the only four-legged form of Veemon, he still made several appearances to help transport Davis around the real world and destroy Control Spires if needed.
Raidramon made his last appearance in the Digimon Adventure 02 finale when the cast was transported to a dimension where (according to Gennai) "wishes can become reality". Here, Veemon was able to digivolve into all of his forms (except Magnamon) at once.
In Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01 special chapter "Double Tamer!! The Great Super Dimensional Battle!!", Raidramon makes an appearance.

Magnamon[]
Magnamon, is the Golden Armor form of Veemon created by the Digi-Egg of Miracles. Unlike most members of his species, he has five fingers per hand instead of three. Magnamon first appeared during the Digimon Emperor's reign, when the Digimon Emperor's creation, Kimeramon, was wrecking havoc in the Digital World. Wormmon decided to aid the DigiDestined, and led DemiVeemon and Davis to the power source of the Digimon Emperor's base. There, Davis discovered the Golden Digi-Egg of Miracles, and used its power to digivolve Veemon to Magnamon. The Darkness Before Dawn
Magnamon was powerful enough to fight Kimeramon, but eventually lost his ground. Wormmon, in a last attempt to make Ken Ichijouji see the error of his ways, managed to free Magnamon by sacrificing the last of his life force. Magnamon, re-energized by Wormmon's sacrifice, was able to destroy Kimeramon by using his Magna Explosion attack. The Crest of Kindness
Magnamon appears again in the third Digimon movie to help Rapidmon (Armor) fight Cherubimon.
In Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01 special chapter "Double Tamer!! The Great Super Dimensional Battle!!", Magnamon appears when the Tamers trapped by Parallelmon create the Digi-Egg of Miracles, and he defeats the Mega Digimon.
When the Watchmaker summons the heroes of the past to the Fusion universe to help take down Quartzmon, Magnamon takes part in the fight against Quartzmon's army of Myotismon replicas. He quickly degenerates into Veemon. A Great Legendary Hero Gathering! The Digimon All-star Showdown!!

Other Armor forms[]
In the virtual pet D-3, Veemon can Armor digivolve with each of the other Digi-Eggs.
ExVeemon[]
ExVeemon is Veemon's natural champion form. After the Digimon Emperor was defeated and his block against Digivolution lifted, Davis tried to get Veemon to digivolve into his Champion form in a bid to impress Kari and Gatomon. Naturally, none of these attempts were successful. It wasn't until Davis was about to be killed by an irate Tortomon that Veemon was able to digivolve in order to save his partner's life. Davis Cries Wolfmon
From then on, ExVeemon overshadowed Flamedramon and Raidramon and became Veemon's primary fighting form until he and Stingmon unlocked the power of DNA Digivolution to form Paildramon. He then becomes essential in fighting Control Spire Digimon, Arukenimon, Mummymon, BlackWarGreymon, the Daemon Corps and finally MaloMyotismon.

Attacks
Paildramon[]
Paildramon is an Ultimate-level Digimon who is the DNA digivolved form of ExVeemon and Stingmon (Wormmon's champion form), combining the features and attributes of a Dragon type Digimon with those of an Insectoid type. Some of his recognizable parts are ExVeemon's lower wings, lower legs, arms and tail; and Stingmon's armor, hands and body.
Veemon and Wormmon are the first of the second generation DigiDestined Digimon to achieve DNA Digivolution. When Ken's former base threatened to explode, Arukenimon attempted to stop the DigiDestined with an Okuwamon she had created out of Control Spires. Ken Ichijouji had been willing to throw away his life to undo the damage he caused, but Davis Motomiya managed to convince him to get over what he did in the past and keep living. At that instant, when the hearts of Davis and Ken were beating as one, ExVeemon and Stingmon were able to merge and form Paildramon.
Paildramon was strong enough to easily destroy Okuwamon and stop the detonation of Ken's base. For a substantial time, Paildramon was the only Ultimate-level Digimon on the DigiDestined's team, and was a valuable ally in their struggle against Arukenimon, Mummymon, and later BlackWarGreymon.
Paildramon is Veemon's Ultimate DNA Digivolution in Digimon Tamers: Digimon Medley. He can also digivolve to Paildramon by leveling up in Digimon Tamers: Brave Tamer, or by equipping both ExVeemon and Stingmon with Calumon cards.
Attacks
- Desperado Blaster: Fires energy bullets from the two cannon weapons on his hips, like a machine-gun.
- Sting Strike[7] (Esgrima, Esp: Fencing): Extends the spikes on his wrists into lances, then strikes at the opponent.
- Cable Catcher: Fires off his claws on wires and binds or stabs the opponent with them.
Imperialdramon Dragon Mode[]
Imperialdramon Dragon Mode is a Mega level Digimon who is the digivolved form of Paildramon. Around Christmas time, Veemon and Wormmon were given power from one of the DigiCores of Azulongmon. This allowed them, as Paildramon, to digivolve further to Imperialdramon Dragon Mode.
Imperialdramon Dragon Mode was also responsible for transporting the DigiDestined around the world so they could help the Chosen Children of other countries. Interestingly, Imperialdramon Dragon Mode appears to help Sora Takenouchi and Yolei Inoue in Russia even though at the same time, Ken Ichijouji was with Matt Ishida in Mexico and Davis Motomiya was with Mimi Tachikawa and Michael in America, though Gennai mentioned that Imperialdramon Dragon Mode can travel across the world in the blink of an eye.
This was the primary form of Imperialdramon used until SkullSatamon paralyzed him, leading to the older generation Digidestined's Digimon giving up their power from the DigiCores, leading to his further digivolution into Fighter Mode.
Three years after the defeat of MaloMyotismon, Dark Gennai, under the guise of the Digimon Emperor, seemingly controls Imperialdramon. He attacks Palmon, Gomamon and Leomon.
During the final battle with BigUkkomon, Veemon and Wormmon quickly formed Imperialdramon who flew Davis, Ken and Lui Ohwada close to the Mega before Mode Changing into Imperialdramon Fighter Mode. Digimon Adventure 02: The Beginning
Imperialdramon Dragon Mode is Veemon's Mega DNA Digivolution in Digimon Tamers: Digimon Medley. He can also achieve Imperialdramon Dragon Mode through leveling up in Digimon Tamers: Brave Tamer.
Attacks
- Mega Crusher (Mega Death): Fires super-massive dark matter, swallowing everything within a dark space and completely annihilating everything within a radius of a few hundred meters around the impact-point of the dark matter.
- Positron Laser: Fires a huge blast of positronic energy from the Positron Laser on his back.
Unison Attacks
- Double Positron Laser: Combines his Positron Laser with Imperialdramon Fighter Mode's to deal immense damage.
Imperialdramon Fighter Mode[]
Imperialdramon Fighter Mode is an alternate form of Imperialdramon Dragon Mode. The Fighter Mode gives Imperialdramon Dragon Mode a more human shape. It is also said that his fighting power is tripled.
When the evil Digimon Daemon and its Daemon Corps appeared, Imperialdramon Dragon Mode was frozen by SkullSatamon. To free Imperialdramon Dragon Mode, the Digimon of the older DigiDestined dedigivolved from their Ultimate forms and gave their remaining power to Imperialdramon Dragon Mode, triggering the Mode Change for the first time. Fighter Mode was forced to kill SkullSatamon with his Positron Laser in order to save a busload of children. It was something the DigiDestined regreted as they didn't want to kill, but Imperialdramon Fighter Mode had no choice in the matter. Invasion of the Daemon Corps
Imperialdramon Fighter Mode subsequently slew SkullSatamon, participated in battle against Daemon and BlackWarGreymon, and ultimately destroyed MaloMyotismon once and for all boosted by the power of the Digidestined of the world's Digivices. In Revenge of Diaboromon, he appears to fight against Armageddemon, but is unable to defeat him until Omnimon donates his energy and allows Imperialdramon Fighter Mode to digivolve to Paladin Mode.
Whilst fighting Vikemon, Rosemon and Leomon whilst being controlled by Dark Gennai, Imperialdramon Dragon Mode mode changes into Fighter Mode, though it is defeated by the combined efforts of the three.
In the battle against BigUkkomon, Silphymon and Shakkoumon sever most of his tentacles to give Imperialdramon Fighter Mode a clean shot to destroy BigUkkomon with his Giga Crusher. After the battle, he reverts back to Veemon and Wormmon. Digimon Adventure 02: The Beginning
Imperialdramon Fighter Mode is Veemon's Mega DNA Digivolution in Digimon Tamers: Digimon Medley.

Unison Attacks

Imperialdramon Paladin Mode[]
Imperialdramon Paladin Mode is an even more powerful alternate form of Imperialdramon Dragon Mode, achieved after Omnimon gave Imperialdramon Fighter Mode his remaining power.
Imperialdramon Fighter Mode had been fighting Armageddemon using his Giga Crusher attack. However, he was not strong enough, and ended up injured in Armageddemon's counterattack. Omnimon, who had already been badly injured and nearly torn apart by Armageddemon's laser whips, gave his remaining energy to Imperialdramon Fighter Mode. Omnimon's arms separated from his main body to become Agumon and Gabumon again, whilst his main body became the Omni Sword. Imperialdramon Fighter Mode, wielding this sword, turned into Imperialdramon Paladin Mode and defeated Armageddemon. He did this by charging at Armageddemon with his Omni Sword. He then impaled Armageddemon through the snout, causing Armageddemon to disintegrate back into countless Kuramon that are absorbed into the Omni Sword with the help of the many bystanders' cellphones.

- Omni Sword[9] (Omega Blade): Cuts the opponent in two with a single stroke of the Omni Sword, resetting and clearing their configuration data.
