What are your Digimon headcanons?

[Agent Z]

The D-Reaper is an alternate universe eequivalent of Yggsdrasil.

Myotismon/Vandemon prior form is a Bakemon in Digimon adventure 1999, hench why he is surrounded by Bakemon in his Castle and unlike Gatomon and Demidevimon never mistreats them as he is one of them, just one step ahead. Also notice how much like Bakemon in prior episodes his only goal is to feed on others.

Also, I am awere that out of universe Myotismon/Vandemon was also surrounded by Bakemon in the Digimon 1997 game which is probably what inspirated them being his companions in the animated series.

IIRC the novel explicitly stated Apocalymon created Myotismon as Myotismon and it did not evolve from anything.

I don't recall the novel saying anything about Vamdemon's origins.

This only occurred to me today in light of the new 02 movie, but unless it's been confirmed elsewhere, I now headcanon that Tri abandoned a plot that more heavily featured the 02 Chosen in relation to Maki plotting along with a reluctant Daigo to sacrifice them and their partners for the sake of restoring their former roles as Digidestined and their partners. I don't have all the details figured out, but the 02 kids being kept in stasis gives me a bit of a sneaking suspicion that it was abandoned in light of the less compelling Maiko plot.

 

[Unknown Neo]

That would be weird. But also might have a lot of questions left.

How so?

Overall, there is a 1:1 correspondence between the Sovereign 4 (5?) Destined, and the Adventure 02 Team kidnapped. It wouldn't have been much of a stretch if Maki would have gone on to kidnap Kari to swap out between them. It's the holding them in stasis that leads me to that conclusion. Honestly, Tri suffered, because of Maiko and Meicoomon. It would have been more compelling if Meicoomon was Maki's original partner. Then the story would make sense. But this is going into "Unpopular Opinions" territory, so I'll just leave it as my headcanon that the intention was to reserve their bodies in stasis for a reboot of those partnerships. Perhaps even a Dark Sovereigns line as a result of Maki and Daigo making a deal with Yggdrasil. That's sorta fan fiction, but I think it's plausible based on a number of loose plot points we saw depicted that never came to a definitive end. We never get an explanation for why Maki takes Ken's D3 specifically vs. say, Davis', which leads me to think there was a Dark Ocean plot that may have featured Dagomon as well which was later abandoned. Having Ophanimon Falldown Mode trigger this sacrifice would have made more sense thematically. There really is nothing about the plot that makes us care for Maiko. I headcanon that it was abandoned as it would have been EXTREMELY dark to have the Chosen 8+1 have to make the decision to take down former digidestined, to the point of slaying their human partners. Would have been interesting to see how they would have handled THAT!

I don't know if anyone has already said something like this in this thread before, but I think Birdramon and Saberdramon with wattles are male. GG Saberdramon has wattles and Adventure Birdramon doesn't, for example.

wait a second, this makes a lot of sense.


Very loosely counting a headcanon, I like to associate the color blue with data types, green for vaccine types, and red for virus types based off of color theming in Tamers. For example, if I were to draw a virus digimon with its wireframe exposed I would make the wireframe red. I know this is definitely not the case for most media but it's my default color associations

Uh, did you reply to the wrong comment? Lol

I was making a comment to what Citramon wrote then wrote my own unrelated thing. I also made a typo and meant to write "Very loosely counting as a headcanon"

Oh, I like this. It makes sense.

For me it's red = data and blue = virus.
Mainly because of RedOtamamon and BlueGreymon.

That actually makes some sense. Weird sense but hey, Pokemon does things like that.

Oh my gosh! I did the same lol. I just never got around to adding it.

I do however have another headcanon following the conclusion of Ghost Game (might be a bit too much fan fiction but I still think it could work):

Spoiler: Ghost Game Conclusion Theories

Originally, Hiro’s Gammamon and Regulusmon were a single entity—Proximamon, that dwelled in their extraterrestrial Digital World as an ultimate form of digivolution to exist there. This digital space would look much different from what we’re used to and that is what we saw inside of Siriusmon’s internal world (the bubbles/orbs reminded me of different planets) that would be constantly created and destroyed.
When the Endbringer destroyed that Digital World, it was so cataclysmic that it depowered Proximamon (who was only able to survive because of its godlike abilities) and split its light/darkness coexistence into both Gammamon (as a physical body) and Gulus/Regulusmon (as a spiritual body/internalized hidden data).
The power and force required for such a destruction literally launched the little monster light years away into the Ghost Game Digital World. So when Hokuto was mentioning how prickly Gammamon was and why everyone seemed to attack him, it was because he was an “alien” digital creature and registered to them as a foreign body/computer virus.
Also because Proximamon was the top evolutionary creature of their world, his data would have evolved from many “lesser” forms, which is how Gammamon was able to utilize so many different Champion forms. He just needed help from the emotional connection made between Hiro and the Digivice to unlock that latent data within.

This ended up connecting way more points than I originally intended lol.

 

[Unknown Neo]

...I'm not disagreeing with this. It sounds pretty accurate. And might actually be a good plot.

 

[McGann]

My current theory on Gammamon is that something to do with how he travelled to the Digital World is also what caused him to devolve. Similar to how Agumon and Gabumon had to devolve in Cyber Sleuth to cross over to the human world.

Someone suggested he literally impacted the Earth like a comet, based on some card art from the TCG. Though, his profile mentions a transmission from space, so maybe he arrived as a data transition, became and egg, and that was how in happened.

In any case, his original mission was to be sent ahead of the Endbringer, and build the power he needed to defeat it. Which is why he was evolved (maybe even engineered) with the GRB virus, to enhance his power and will to survive.

It was Hiro nurturing and raising Gammamon that caused the split personality, as prior to that, he seemed on route to becoming Gulus again. Proxiamon for me would be cooler as the synthesis of Gulus's will to survive, and Gammamon's love for his friends and family.

I think the current trend might be what was setRed is also the color for viruses in Collectors. The rest are different.

I tend to stick with the colors used in Hyper Collesium.

In survive that colors match those.

Moral (Vaccine) : Red
Wrathful (Virus) : Yellow
Harmony (Data) : Green

When Tamers came out I felt that the colors of Guilmon, Renamon, and Terriermon were alluding to the colors of the TCG program types but swapped.

I just read the lore to Arcturusmon and Proximamon. Reading how they are only known to theoretically exist through simulations immediately brought to mind Quantumon which makes me happy that Quantumon is probably already working with the writers of the reference book.

That's one headcanon, which is pretty obvious with all the recent Ghost Game contexts, but then I go a little deeper.

Muur mentioned in the Digimon Channel: Pics and Translation Thread, "It's interesting that technically, Arcturusmon [as well as Proximamon] doesnt even exist. They just ran simulations and saw him so lore wise he doesn't exist yet" and my immediate thought was how can that be the case that these digimon don't exist yet when many people have raised them in the BEMemory Gammamon Dim?
But then I remembered: Quantumon, at least explicity stated in the Ghost Game anime, developed the Vital Bracelet themself which means that the real world Vital Bracelet and Vital Bracelet BE gameplay might actually be simulations created by Quantumon and those who used the BEMemory Gammamon Dim could very well be the reason we know of Arcturusmon and Proximamon's existences. If that's actually the implication, then the anime, reference book, and real world v-pets would come full circle and that's really cool to me!

But then we have both appearing in the Digimon Card Game. Does that count as them existing or are trading card games by their very nature technically simulations themselves? I guess it's personal interpretation

 

[Unknown Neo]

...No, I like that idea. At least with the BEM. That actually would make sense in universe.

DeadlyAxemon has some weapon-species data in its digicore.
