Blackstone Dresden Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Yes, but every character in every OTHER form of Digimon canon (Sans Frontier) had a complete Rookie -> Mega progression. Even Tamers, who went completely batsh*t crazy with their Tamers, has complete lines for everybody but MarineAngemon, who really was just thrown in at the last minute because plushies sell.

The Warden Posted January 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Yeah, but that leaves the annoying question of what is MarineAngemon's digivolution line is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstone Dresden Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Well, NEXT gave us Pichimon for his In-Training, so he's probably yet a third evolution of Zudomon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted January 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Pichimon for his baby Dresden, so he could be a Gomamon mega, or maybe, for something else entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstone Dresden Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Ya know what, I'm pretty sure the Baby Level got retconned out of existence sometime after Tamers and they just forgot to announce it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Roxas Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 I believe that throwing in MarineAngemon was because making Kazu, Kenta, and Suzie surprised even the executive producer, since the opening was a huge spoiler since the first episode, even giving away Beelzemon Blast Mode. I thought that Frontier played the Digivolution lines pretty well, despite my gripe with it being so Power Rangers-esque that it completely removed the human-partner dynamic, something that is essential to the Digimon franchise. I like DNA Digivolution, but introducing in 02 had the downside of reducing the usage of MagnaAngemon and Angewomon to the point where T.K. and Kari began to completely rely on Shakkoumon and Angewomon. I know that it's tradition for the main two characters to get the most upgrades, but I really did not like how the team configuration in 02. T.K. and Kari were veterans from Adventure, and T.K. was a part of the team before Kari, so T.K. should have been the leader. Just because Tai said Davis should be leader is completely unfair to them. I admit, it's been a while since I've watched any Digimon season other than Xros Wars, so my memory may be foggy, but still. Not to mention that Veemon and the Heel Face Turned Sixth Ranger's Digimon DNA Digivolved in a dragon knight that introduced Mode Changes, and in the movie managed to defeat Armageddemon because Omnimon gave his power to give Imperialdramon yet another upgrade. What did T.K. and Kari get? A giant walking teapot and a hermaphrodite (Even if you consider Purely Aesthetic Gender, Silphymon is still a hermaphrodite) walking bird that stole Cyclops' goggles. Seraphimon? Magnadramon/Ophanimon? Who are they? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a73hfRJjZs8 This very accurately sums up my feelings. I really should get around to watching WhatTheEgad and JesuOtaku's retrospectives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstone Dresden Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Here's a brief review of Digimon Tamers as done by a large Canadian ham http://www.d2brigade.net/reviews/75-glassreflect/1473-glass-reflection-digimon-tamers But JO's Tamers review is supposed to be up sometime around the end of February.

Yoko Kurama Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 MarineAngemon seems to create quite a controversy. Never liked the little twerp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstone Dresden Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 MarineAngemon exists because plushies sell. And it's midnight CST and I just woke up. I f*cking hate being sick! I can't get banned for swearing, can I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackstone Dresden Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 On to something relevant to this site and thus this thread by proxy: Apparently, Yusei is getting yet a third personal power up called Burning Mind. He's already got Clear Mind and Top Clear Mind, and now he steals Jack's shtick too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted January 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 That is incredibly dumb. What is he going to do, double synchro tuning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstone Dresden Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 [spoiler=Shining Star Dragon]WINDLevel 12Dragon/Synchro/Effect2 Tuner Synchro Monsters + "Stardust Dragon"When the effect of a Spell, Trap, or Effect Monster card is activated, you can remove from play this card to negate its activation and destroy it. If you negate an effect this way, you can Special Summon this removed from play card during the End Phase. When an opponent's monster declares an attack, you can remove from play 1 Synchro Monster in your Graveyard to negate the attack. If there are no Synchro Monsters in your Graveyard, this card is destroyed.4000/4000 Also, this [spoiler=Stardust Synchron]WINDLevel 2Dragon/Synchro/EffectWhen this card is Synchro Summoned, you can destroy 1 Spell or Trap card on the field.

Phantom Roxas Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 I had thought of Double Synchro Tuning a while ago, but they're actually doing it and Yusei is going to take Burning Soul for that? I'm a bit skeptical. Link? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstone Dresden Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Here's the link to the Shriek article Apparently it's unconfirmed, but Shriek's been reliable in the past, so I'm thinking it's real. Unless by some miracle Stardust Synchron's not actually its real name and it doesn't become a Tuner at all. Also, Shining Star Dragon's apparently LIGHT not WIND, why I dunno.
