[[folder:Armadimon]]

* JackOfAllStats: ExVeemon can fly so he isn't lacking in speed, and he can take and deliver punishment on the same level as your average champion. Unlike most portrayals of this trope, he's actually better at speed and power than the two other forms who specialize in them, quickly making those forms all but obsolete.

** Imperaldramon has never won against any Mega-level digimon, even with help, discounting his cameo in Hunters. Daemon was only using one hand and merely got pushed back; Blackwargreymon was a tie; and MaloMyotismon only lost because his power source [The Dark Spores] dried up so he lost his body. His only victories as Imperaldramon are against Ultimate-level digimon. [[spoiler: Tri continues this with him losing to Vikemon and Rosemon; two freshly digivolved Megas; despite him having years to get used to his form by this point, and he is weak enough the Leomon; a mere Champion; can launch an effective attack on him; and Gomamon; a Rookie can get up after being hit by him in Dragon Mode.]]

* CrossdressingVoices: Japanese version only.

* TookALevelInBadass: Initially a ButtMonkey, but when he's able to evolve into Stingmon, who in his second fight was eventually matched Rockmon, who had taken on the rest of the main Digimon and [[CurbStompBattle curbstomped]] them.

%%* ElementalPowers

%%* {{Keet}}: ''Extremely'' so.

* LadyAndKnight: In the Japanese version (and AllTheirInTheManual in the dub), this is how he sees his relationship with Miyako/Yolei.

** Later Digimon materials present Silphymon and Valkyrimon as male.

** '''[[AnIcePerson Li]][[BlowYouAway ght]]''': Quetzalmon, an armored [[Myth/AztecMythology Quetzalcoatl]] who can uses various wind and ice-based attacks. Only appears in a crossover in ''VideoGame/DigimonDigitalCardBattle''. And yes, despite digivolved and armored with Digi-Egg of ''Light'', his powers are all based on ''wind'' and ''ice''!

* [[spoiler: HeroicSacrifice / NegateYourOwnSacrifice]].

%%* LoveMartyr

* OurDragonsAreDifferent

* SuperForm: Paladin Mode

* [[VSign XV Sign]]

* [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman This Looks Like A Job For Submarimon]]: Submarimon is useful ''only'' when they are fighting in a water-based area.

* [[UselessUsefulSpell Useless Useful Armor Evolution]]: Like with Submarimon, Digmon was more useful most other times if they can be on land. As a result, Submarimon was the least useful evolution.

[[folder:[[spoiler:Wormmon]]]]
!![[spoiler:Wormmon]]

First seen as the Digimon Emperor's minion, a caterpillar-like Digimon [[spoiler:who eventually rebels to help the Digidestined defeat him]]. Doesn't do too much [[spoiler:after Ken's HeelFaceTurn]], but evolves into Stingmon and is awesome.

-->'''Voiced by:''' Gaby Willert (Latin America, as Wormmon and below), Gustavo Melgarejo (Latin America, as Stingmon and above), Francisco Andrés Valdivia (Spain).

* DeadlyDisk: Shakkoumon's Nigimitama.

* MakeMeWannaShout: Aquilamon's Blast Rings.

* BFS: The Omega Sword, born of Omnimon's data. Able to take out Armageddemon with ease.

* HotPaintJob: Flamedramon's armor, lifted directly from the Didi-egg of Courage.

* '''Ultimate (DNA/Natural)''': Silphymon, a white & red warrior with Hawkmon's feathers, Gatomon's ears, and a metal visor. In several video games adaptations which share the same universe as the anime (or crossover like in ''VideoGame/DigimonDigitalCardBattle''), this is his natural Ultimate form.

* BreathWeapon: Imperialdramon's FinishingMove comprises of him spitting out a supermassive quantity of dark matter that creates an InstantDeathRadius of a few hundred meters. It's name? [[Music/{{Megadeth}} Mega Death]].

* {{BFG}}: The Giga Crusher. While it is quite powerful on its own, it pails in comparison to....

%%* GoldenSuperMode: Magnamon

%%* HotPaintJob: Flamedramon

* StoryBreakerPower: Paladin Mode is easily the most powerful hero digimon in the adventure anime, thanks mostly to the addition of Omnimon's power. He is able to defeat Armageddemon, who prior was only slightly damaged by Omnimon and completely unfazed by Imperialdramon, with a single stab

->Voiced by: Megumi Urawa (JP), Robert Axelrod (EN), Creator/BlancaRada (Spain), Héctor Moreno (Latin America)

* ElementalPowers
** AnIcePerson: Vikemon
** DishingOutDirt: Digmon
** MakingASplash: Submarimon. However, his "Oxygen Homing" attack is more fit for BlowYouAway because it is literally ''oxygen'' fired as a torpedo!
*** IfItSwimsItFlies: Invoked to save Ken from drowning.
* EpicFlail: Ankylomon's tail.
* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: Ankylomon obviously.
* KansaiRegionalAccent: Nagoya-ben
** AccentAdaptation: Changed to a Western accent in the dub.

* [[UselessUsefulSpell Useless Useful Armor Evolution]] / [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman This Looks Like A Job For Submarimon]]: Submarimon is useful ''only'' when they are fighting in a water-based area, and Digmon was more useful most other times if they can be on land. As a result, Submarimon was the least useful evolution.

* DarkIsNotEvil / MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Wormmon is notably a Virus-type, but doesn't seem to be that much of a bad guy - not even if he serves the Kaiser. [[spoiler:In fact, he really is a good guy - his loyalty isn't to the Kaiser, but to the kind and gentle Ken that he believes is still there in some form.]]
* ElementalPowers:
** PlayingWithFire: Shadramon.
** AnIcePerson and BlowYouAway: Quetzalmon.

* LoveMartyr
* MagikarpPower: Not to the extent of Patamon/Angemon in the first series, but Wormmon is pretty weak while Stingmon and further evolutions with XV-Mon are quite powerful.
* MinionWithAnFInEvil
* MrFanservice: as Stingmon, to the point that he manages to attract Rosa, a young Mexican Digidestined girl.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Will serve Ken no matter what, even if he's the Digimon Kaiser. [[spoiler:The only reason he ever turns against him is because he's afraid that Ken will end up destroying himself, and that he's lost the "true Ken" that he loves.]]
* MoralityPet
* ThePromise

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: When he finally had enough of Ken's actions as the Digimon Kaiser, that was the time he stood up.
-->'''Wormmon''': I hope you're finally proud of yourself. You've officially become worse than the monster you created. Whatever happened to that sweet kid I met a long time ago who had a dream of taking over the Digital World? Okay, so it was a sick and twisted dream, but we still had a lot of laughs together! What happened to the boy I was proud to call master? Of course, you MADE me call you that. You've changed, Ken. But it's not too late for you. For some reason, you started capturing Digimon and you turned them into your slaves instead of into your friends. I didn't agree, but I stuck by your side because I was your Digimon. And then, you started being cruel to me. The one who knows the true you. The others way know and fear you as the Digimon Emperor, but never forget I know the real you. I'll always think of you for your kindness, Ken. No matter what happens. One day I hope you'll realize that the real Ken isn't the Digimon Emperor, but the Ken that's my friend. And only a real friend would do this!
* SatelliteCharacter: During the duration of the Digimon Emperor arc since he's just there for Ken to abuse and yell out, until the end that is.
* TookALevelInBadass: Initially a ButtMonkey, but when he's able to evolve into Stingmon, who in his second fight was eventually matched Rockmon/Golemmon, who had taken on the rest of the main digimon and curbstomped them.

* ElementalPowers
** LightEmUp: Magnamon
** PlayingWithFire: Flamedramon
** ShockAndAwe: Raidramon

* GoldenSuperMode: Magnamon
* HotPaintJob: Flamedramon
* {{Keet}}: ''Extremely'' so.

* MultiformBalance
** GlassCannon: Flamedramon packs quite a punch, especially with Fire Rocket, but he doesn't take a hit well.
** FragileSpeedster: Raidramon can run and attack at high speeds but as Veemon notes, Flamedramon is the better fighter
** JackOfAllStats: ExVeemon can fly so he isn't lacking in speed, and he can take and deliver punishment on the same level as your average champion. Unlike most portrayals of this trope, he's actually better at speed and power than the two other forms who specialize in them, quickly making those forms all but obsolete.
** LightningBruiser: Magnamon. Can fight evenly with Kimeramon and can take quite a deal of punishment. He's far faster than Raidramon and far stronger than Flamedramon (how he compares with Paildramon and Imperialdramon isn't clear). However, as implied in 02 and confirmed in Young Hunters, Magnamon runs out of energy quickly.
