After they've calmed down, Dianamon explains it was meant to be an ice statue. Minervamon was residing in Logic Volcano, [[RealityEnsues so...]].

* PauseScumming: Digimons will chase you on the overworld and when they touch you it forces you into a battle. The Digimon is pushed slightly further away from you when you pause, so if you wanted a digimon off your trail you can pause repeatedly

* RuleOfThree: Blackosaurus and Blackie, who are initially met as a [=BlackAgumon=] and [=BlackGabumon=] respectively, are the epitome of this trope. Your first encounter with has you fight with them three times straight, with no breaks in between. The next time you meet, they've digivolved into Champions, and after losing twice, digivolve ''again'' into Ultimates before facing you one more time. [[spoiler:The final time subverts the expectation, as they only fight you once as Megas, and then fake you (and themselves for that matter) out with a DNA Digivolution to Omegamon Zwart before immediately reverting and, after thanking you for all the fights, deciding that "second place" isn't that bad and leaving. Overall, however, you still end up facing them three times in three different areas before they leave at the end.]]

CarnivoreConfusion: Digimon, regardless of species, do not eat each other. They do eat meat, but it's grown on a farm. Literally, it grows out of the ground like a plant. Even more confusingly, the farmers growing the meat are plant digimon.

** After a certain point, you'll be able to have your Digimons' evolution paths locked, so you can choose to keep your Digimon from forcibly Digivolving into something you don't want them to evolve into, especially in later generations where your Digimon will more than likely meet multiple requirements for different evolutions.

* PronounTrouble: While this game has a more consistent localization compared to ''Cyber Sleuth'', it still has trouble keeping gender pronouns consistent. For the most part, male pronouns will be used almost all the time, even for the majority of Digimon, who are also inconsistently called "it" at the same time, even when referring to a single, specific character.[[labelnote:Details]]As far as the localization's concerned, the majority of Digimon are male, even the ones who are usually considered female despite their gender not being evident in their design (i.e. Palmon, who looks like a walking plant with bug-eyes, compared to its Ultimate level form Lillymon, who is an obviously female pixie). although any Digimon who was female in an older adaptation of the franchise (such as [[Anime/DigimonTamers Renamon's line]]) will sometimes have a female voice in the localization, which includes major ''Next Order'' character Taomon, who, in the English version, has the same "mature knowledgeable woman" voice it had in its debut anime, despite being constantly referred to as male in this game (it has a male voice in the Japanese version of the game, so it probably only has the ''Tamers'' voice in English as a reference to its role in the show). And while them PronounTrouble could be handwaved as a [[StarfishAliens quirk of the Digimon themselves]] (the franchise's own explanation of Digimon gender identification varies from product to product, but for the most part, their gender isn't a factor until they take a form that's obviously male or female, and even then...), the constantly spotty localizations of many of the ''Digimon'' RPG[=s=] even before ''Cyber Sleuth'' points to either a constant struggle to appropriate the right pronouns for a gender-fluid species that the Japanese language doesn't need to worry about, or general laziness and apathy given to a series that could still be considered niche despite the relative success the resurgence efforts have brought to it.[[/labelnote]]

I don't know why, but the "note" function under Pronoun Trouble broke. Turned it into a lable note, because the information is useful for people newer to this franchise (though who is still paying attention to this page in 2021, amirite? :P)

** After joining Floatia, Shoutmon will state that he's technically not a Rookie, which references ''Anime/DigimonFusion''[='s=] lack of ranks in its adaptation of the franchise. His Digimon Reference Book profile lists Shoutmon as one of the Digimon with no level at all, but for the sake of convenience most media just lists him as Rookie anyway.

It's most egregious (though thematically appropriate) with the Seven Great Demon Lords, who have very demanding requirements that include making at least 5 care mistakes and have the discipline score be equal to or lesser than 9 (out of 100). This can be difficult to achieve without killing your Digimon early.
