An Insect Digimon who is full of pride and survives by constantly intimidating everyone around it. It gives top priority to its own pride out of everything else, and its high-ranking pride is said to be first-rate among all of the Digimon. It has a behavioral trait where, if someone damages its pride even a little bit, it will not ever forgive them, regardless of whether they are friend or foe. It is said that it won the title of BAN-TYO through its pride alone, rejecting all offers of a compromise. Its symbolic Gakuran was minutely sewn with the shells of various insects, so it has become very firmly-made.
Its Special Moves are skewering enemies with the drills on both of its arms (Bloody Finish), releasing Kiraichū that self-destruct when they hit enemies (Bakuraiten), and headbutting an enemy hard enough to shatter their face (Redbutt).

The BAN-TYO (「BAN-TYO」or alternatively バンチョー Banchō) is a group of Digimon that are the enemies of the [[Characters/DigimonDBrigade D-Brigade]]. It is said that only Digimon who are continuosly victorious in battle without their spirits being "broken" may earn this coveted title. Each of its members are of the Mega level, regardless of what form they were in when they obtained this mantle. At the moment, there are only five known members.
----

!!'''Tropes that apply to the BAN-TYO as a whole:'''
* AntiHero: While many of them still hold heroic spirits, their basis comes from JapaneseDelinquents, leaving many of them rather rude or unpleasant. [=BanchoStingmon=] and [=BanchoGolemon=] in particular are this, as Golemon [[BystanderSyndrome will only lend aid to those it considers allies]], and Stingmon is [[ItsAllAboutMe extremely self-centered, refusing to forgive friend and foe alike should they damage its pride.]]
* ArchEnemy: The D-Brigade, to the point where an assasination was attempted on them.
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Only Digimon that have defeated many champions can earn this title.
* BadassLongcoat: All of their members wear one.
* ChevalierVsRogue: They have this dynamic in their enmity with the D-Brigade, with the BAN-TYO delinquents being rogue and the military D-Brigade being chevalier.
* CoatCape: All of them wear gakuran jackets with their arms outside the sleeves (except maybe [=BanchoStingmon=], it's hard to tell), making the jackets look more like capes and adding to their rebellious delinquent image.
* CreateYourOwnVillain: Zigzagged, the D-Brigade were already their enemies, however a Tankdramon they shot down was taken to a research facility where it digivolved into a rogue Darkdramon, who hunts the group to this day.
* DubNameChange: They're known as either the Bancho or Boss Digimon in ''VideoGame/DigimonStoryCyberSleuth's'' localization, and Ringleader Digimon in ''VideoGame/DigimonReArise''.
* JapaneseDelinquents: The main motif behind them is this trope added on to certain Digimon.
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: A bipedal lion warrior, a bomb shaped creature, a fairy, an insectoid, and a golem.
* RedIsHeroic: All of them have red in their designs.
* SpecificallyNumberedGroup: Even before it became an official group, its number of members were confirmed to be five according to [=BanchoLeomon=]'s profile. Unlike most groups, there is no symbolic significance to this number; it merely states that only five Digimon have been able to achieve the title.
* TookALevelInBadass: All five members are Digimon that attained their titles from having unbreakable spirits, and all five are species of Digimon normally much weaker than their current Mega leveling. Of the five, Golemon, Leomon, and Stingmon were all Champion levels, and Lillymon and Mamemon were on the weaker end of the Ultimate level.

->'''Debut:''' ''Digital Monster Card Game''
->'''Attacks:''' (''Original'') Flash Bancho Punch, Shishi Raouzan[[note]]Lion King Advance[[/note]], Otokogi[[note]]Chivalry[[/note]], Otokodama[[note]]Man's Soul[[/note]], Burn Bancho Punch; (''Dub'') Flash Bantyo Punch[=/=]Flash Bancho Punch[=/=]Flashy Boss Punch, King Lion[=/=]Lion Slash[=/=]Lion King Slash, Chivalry, Man's Soul, Burning Bantyo Punch

A Beast Man Digimon which lives faithful only to the "Justice" in which it trusts. It is said that only Digimon who continue to emerge victorious in battles with fierce champions, without their spirit being "broken", are able to acquire the title of "Bancho", and only five Digimon which possess this title have been confirmed in the recorded history of the Digital World. As it is a boss that only serves its own "Justice", if something becomes an obstacle to that "Justice", it will see them as "Evil" even if they are a being like the Royal Knights or the Three Great Angels, and they will become an enemy that it has to eliminate. The "GAKU-RAN" worn over its shoulders is endowed with a defensive function that negates 89.9% of the opponent's physical strikes, and it wields a tanto named "Otokodama".\\
\\
[=BanchoLeomon=] has been partnered to [[Anime/DigimonDataSquad Suguru Daimon (Spencer Damon)]] and [[VideoGame/DigimonStoryCyberSleuth Yuuko Kamishiro]].
----
* AntiHero: It's described as having its own code of justice, and that it won't hesitate to oppose the forces of good if need be.
* BadassLongcoat: He wears the "GAKU-RAN" signifying his membership to the group, which also acts as a CoatCape.
* BeastMan: It's in his Type name.
* ChainedByFashion: It has brass knuckles on both hands, and [[TooManyBelts two belts on its waist]].
* CoolSword: Always brings his tanto, "Otokodama", into battle. It slashes opponents with its "Shishi Raouzan"[[note]]Lion King Advance[[/note]] attack.
* ElementalPunch: Its "Burn Bancho Punch" hits the foe with a powerful, burning punch.
* FlamingSword: Its "Shishi Raouzan" attack sets the Otokodama on fire and slashes the opponent.
* FusionDance: Can fuse with [[Characters/DigimonDBrigade Darkdramon]] and Valdurmon into two separate varieties of Chaosmon, and with both ''and'' Sleipmon into [=UltimateChaosmon=].
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Has two large x-shaped ones on its chest.
* GroundPunch: "Otokogi" in which [=BanchoLeomon=] punches the ground, shooting a burning shockwave at its opponent.
* HandBlast: It wouldn't be Leomon without it. Its "Flash Bancho Punch" attack gathers all of its energy and releases it through a punch.
* ICallItVera: Again, the sword is named "Otokodama". It means [[MeaningfulName "Man's Soul"]].
* ImprobableAccessoryEffect: Its "GAKU-RAN" is by all intents and purposes a school uniform, but it reduces its enemies' physical attack strength by 89.9 percent.
* JapaneseDelinquents: What [=BantyoLeomon=] is based off of. Given Masaru styles himself as a banchou in ''Anime/DigimonDataSquad'', this is played up in the storyline.
* KingOfBeasts: A lionine Digimon that serves as the leader of the BAN-TYO.
* MegaNeko: A giant lion man, similar to other Leomon-species.
* NoSell: The GAKU-RAN negates 89.9% of all attacks.
* OralFixation: It chews on a sprig of leaf, as part of its whole JapaneseDelinquents theme.
* PantheraAwesome: A humanoid lion with a rebellious code of honor.
* RatedMForManly: As part of the whole "banchou" theme.
* RebelliousSpirit: It will attack the Royal Knights if they interfering with it.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: A victim of this on the ''Japanese'' side, in that its name is pronounced and really should be written as "[=BanchoLeomon=]". In a strange case of role reversal, the only thing to get this ''right'' is the ''Anime/DigimonDataSquad'' dub. The Japanese version has also been known to call it Bantyo''Lio''mon. His attack in the dub has been called Flash Bantyo Punch, Flash Bancho Punch and weirdest of all, in Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth, Flashy Boss Punch.
* WalkingShirtlessScene: He wears nothing under his coat.

----
* ElementalPunch: "Burning Bancho Punch"
* PowerDyesYourHair: The only visual change to his form aside from the fiery aura is that his otherwise silver hair turns orange.
* WreathedInFlames: He gives off a constant aura of flames from his body and clothing. It even extends along the hem of his coat.

->'''Debut:''' ''Digimon Collectors''
->'''Attacks:''' Senbon Dokkān[[note]]Thousand Blasting[[/note]], Bukkomi Otokodama[[note]]Strike of the Man's Spirit[[/note]], Golden Rush, Ougon Batto[[note]]Golden Faith[=/=]Golden Bats[[/note]]

One of the Digimon that have acquired the title of BAN-TYO, it fights strongly in spite of its small stature, and has a personality that sports a chivalrous spirit and deeply overflowing emotions. As it tries to rebel against the rules of the Digital World, it lives an independent life. It similarly extends a hand to those Digimon who feel ill at ease with and isolated from the world, and from living together they have formed a group called the "Mame-mon Rengō". However, continuing to betray the rules of the world is not an easy task for them, and although [=BanchoMamemon=] has had to fight those Digimon who aim to usurp it as leader under the pretense of a rebirth of the group several times over, the collective power of the Mame-mon Rengō have made those usurpers withdraw. It is thought that it acquired the title of BAN-TYO from being able to avoid enemies without losing its own family as well in all kinds of predicaments. As with [=BanchoLeomon=], it wears a GAKU-RAN that negates the impact of physical attacks, and this defensive effect is often used to protect its companions. Its Special Moves are using its favourite clubs Ougon Batto, to beat enemies to a pulp (Golden Rush), and hammering out its brotherly Black Hickeys from the Ougon Batto (Senbon Dokkān). Moreover, it has a Technique called "Bukkomi Otokodama", wherein it extends the prison chains sported on its entire body as it charges towards the enemy.
----
* BadassLongcoat: Like all other members, he wears one as a CoatCape.
* BatterUp: Its Mame-mon Rengō are a pair of spiked bats.
* {{Cephalothorax}}: Like with all Digimon of the Mamemon-species.
* ChainedByFashion: Has several coming from its outfit.
* DualWielding: Wields two large bats, the "Ougon Batto".
* MagneticHero: It has managed to form a group consisting of the Digimon who feel abandoned by the world, defending them from harm.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Despite its small stature, it possesses great fighting ability, as it has kept other Digimon from usurping it.
* RebelliousSpirit: It goes against the rules set in the Digital World
* ShoutOut: [=BanchoMamemon=] is essentially one gigantic love-letter to [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders Jotaro Kujo]]. He wears his signature jacket and hat, has the knuckles of his stand Star Platinum, and also has a baseball motif, which is one of his favorite sports. Its appearance in ''Anime/DigimonAdventure2020'' even has it shout "ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA," Jotaro's {{Kiai}}, while attacking.

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bancholilymon.png]]
->'''Debut:''' ''Digimon Collectors''
->'''Attacks:''' Absolute Territory, Nightmare Assemble, Twin Petal

A Fairy Digimon that wears a crimson tokkō-fuku. The gorgeous petals it had when it was a Lilimon have been dyed a dark color, and the pretty impression it used to make is long gone. In a Digital World of the survival of the fittest, it has the conviction to fight for the weak, and has saved a lot of those who were attacked by evil Digimon. Its tokkō-fuku, which it donned when it acquired the title of "Bancho", is said to be proof of it enforcing that conviction.
----
* BadassLongcoat: A crimson tokkō-fuku, as opposed to the black gyakuran worn by the other members.
* BareYourMidriff: Just like fellow Mega-level, Fairy-type Digimon, Rosemon and Lotusmon.
* CoatCape: How she wears her tokkō-fuku.
* CombatStilettos: She wears black heeled boots.
* FairySexy: She's still a fairy-type, and she has a much more revealing costume than her previous stage, with both her midriff and cleavage showing.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: She has an x-shaped scar on one of the flower petals on her head.
* JapaneseDelinquents: In addition to being based on a "banchou", she's a classical "sukeban" in attitutde, and her tokkō-fuku and torn leather pants are evocative of the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C5%8Ds%C5%8Dzoku bosokuzu]], a particular-kind of youth subculture in Japan.
* KillerYoYo: A pair of them made of vines and themed after Togemon.
* LawOfChromaticSuperiority: Her coat is a tokkō-fuku, unlike the others', and is said to be special and colored Crimson.
* OurFairiesAreDifferent: A flower fairy with wings made of leaves, hair made of vines and solid black eyes.
* PaintItBlack: Mentioned in her profile; the pink petals she had as a Lilimon are now black.
* TheRedBaron: She's called Lili the Black Lily.
* SailorFuku: She doesn't actually wear one, but the shirt, tie, and torn pants she wears are definitely evocative of this.
* SheIsAllGrownUp: She's more mature-looking than the relatively childish-looking Lilimon.
* ShesGotLegs: Her "Twin Petal" where she unleashes instant kicks with her gorgeous feet, and there even more noticeable because she's they're completely bare except for her black leather skirt.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She is the sole female member of the group.
* WeHelpTheHelpless: She helps out the "underdog" against evil Digimon.
* WingedHumanoid: She has a pair of wings made of leaves, just like Lilimon.

An Insect Digimon who is full of pride and survives by constantly intimidating everyone around it. It gives top priority to its own pride out of everything else, and its high-ranking pride is said to be first-rate among all of the Digimon. It has a behavioral trait where, if someone damages its pride even a little bit, it will not ever forgive them, regardless of whether they are friend or foe.

->'''Attacks:''' ''Kanshaku Dust[[note]]Manliness-Wrath Dust[[/note]], Tenbagaeshi[[note]]Sky-wave Reversal[[/note]], Yobori Claw Drill[[note]]World-Excavating Claw Drill[[/note]]''

One of the BAN-TYO, this Mineral Digimon differs from regular emotionless Golemon in that it acts out of its own will. Its figure stands tall and imposing, unconcerned with its surroundings; its harsh treatment extends to everyone, and it will not show even the slightest sign of leniency. It puts even itself under harsh training by stationing itself in the fiercely inhospitable depths of Infinity Mountain.
It is a mysterious Digimon that, although will hardly ever lend a hand to strangers in need of help, will show up even out of nowhere in order to save a comrade with whom it has exchanged blows. With its overwhelming power, it can turn the tables on a disadvantageous situation in one sweep and claim victory.
Its Special Moves are gripping the enemy in its right hand and hammer-throwing them into the distance (Tenbagaeshi), reflecting the beam fired from the Kanshakudama in its abdomen off of Falling Stones, resulting in an attack with a large area of effect (Kanshaku Dust), and impaling the enemy with the gigantic excavator on its left hand, which is capable of pulverising even Chrome Digizoid alloy (Yobori Claw Drill).
----
* BadassBystander: Played with. It is this towards strangers, but if its an ally, it will put all of its effort to helping save them.
* BadassLongcoat: Like the rest of the Bancho Digimon, it has one.
* {{Golem}}: A giant golem that, unlike regular Golemon, can think and feel emotions.
* ItCanThink: What sets it apart from normal Golemon, who lack any emotion.
* ThisIsADrill: It has one on its left arm. Unusually, it's tipped with half-melted rock.
* TrainingFromHell: It put itself through this by training in the uninhabitable depths of Infinity Mountain.
