Witchmon is a Demon Man Digimon. It came along from "Witchelny", the Digital World of another dimension, in pursuit of its rival, Wizardmon. In its native Witchelny it mastered the sorcery (advanced programming language) of wind and water, and in order to gain an advantage on Wizardmon, who aims to become a great wizard, it followed and diligently trains in this Digital World. It's a little cruel, it has great pride, and it despises customs and rules.[2]

It has vertical black marks around its eyes, and also has large hands, a black cat tattoo on its left arm, and wears red lipstick as makeup, red elbow gloves with two golden blades on the vack of the hands, and black boots. Its cape has a red eye in the collar, and its dress has multiple zippers on it. It also wears two black belts on its belly, and two black belts on its legs.
