Totally not Digimon.
Invizimals is a 2012 animated series from Spain, based on the inviZimals video game. It has a few differences from the game's story.In the show, a secret scientific project recruits three kids to explore another dimension inhabited by creatures called "Invizimals." One of the kids, Hiro, has the ability to duplicate the forms of Invizimals if he can obtain their crystals. It turns out that the dimension is being invaded by mechanical beings called X-Tractors, so the kids end up helping the Invizimals defend their world.
Invizimals includes examples of:
- All-CGI Cartoon
- Ancient Astronauts: Some Invizimals have visited Earth during historical times.
- Butt-Monkey: Hiro, he's been humiliated countless times throughout the show
- Amusing Injuries: Hiro as part of his Butt-Monkey status. It's usually earned by him being arrogant.
- Harmless Electrocution: Lima zaps Hiro with an Electric Joybuzzer in "Jestering", causing him to dance about and his hair to stand on end
- Amusing Injuries: Hiro as part of his Butt-Monkey status. It's usually earned by him being arrogant.
- Keep It Foreign: Inverted. You'd think this show is from Japan- even the main characters are Japanese! Nope, it (and the game it's based on) are from Spain.
- Love Triangle: Played with. Hiro and Lima can barely stand each other, giving the impression of a love/hate relationship; however, in fact, Lima has a crush on Sam.
- Mons: The Invizimals, who, unusually, can often talk and be reasoned with.
- Mon Mode: Hiro is able to copy the forms of Invizimals he allies with with the usage of his wrist device. This is the same in the PS 3 game, but not in any of the handhelds which is the traditional mon-catching game.
- Two Guys and a Girl
- Wake Up, Go to School & Save the World: The kids' parents are unaware of their children's heroic activities.
