14
15	Davis's partner, a blue dragon-ish wisecracker who quickly becomes best buds with his partner. Before the events of 02, he was actually the partner of [[VideoGame/DigimonAdventure02TagTamers Ryo]], though it's never mentioned in the show itself.
16
17	His digivolutions are as follows:
18	* '''Fresh''': Chibomon, a blue blob.
19	* '''In-Training''': [=DemiVeemon=], a miniature (and cuter) version of Veemon. Blows bubbles.
20	* '''Rookie''': Veemon, his default form.
21	* '''Armors''':
22	** '''[[PlayingWithFire Courage]]''': Flamedramon, a larger Veemon with red fire armor. He is a Dragon Man Digimon, just like [=WarGreymon=], the original user of Crest of Courage.
23	** '''[[ShockAndAwe Friendship]]''': Raidramon, a quadrupedal draconic Beast Digimon, whose form reminiscent of [=MetalGarurumon=], the original user of Crest of Friendship.
24	** '''[[LightEmUp Miracles]]''': Magnamon, a draconic Holy Knight Digimon with golden armor.
25	** '''Hope''': Sagittarimon, a centaurian Digimon who wields a large bow. Only appears in CD Drama ''Armor Evolution to the Unknown''.
26	** '''Love''': Sethmon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
27	** '''Sincerity''': Yasyamon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
28	** '''Knowledge''': Honeybeemon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
29	** '''Reliability''': Depthmon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
30	** '''Light''': Gargoylemon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
31	** '''Kindness''': Kangarumon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
32	* '''Champion''': [[XMakesAnythingCool ExVeemon]]. A giant bulked-up Veemon with wings.
33	* '''Ultimate (DNA/Natural)''': Paildramon, a Dragon Man Digimon. Essentially [=ExVeemon=] with Stingmon's armor, and [[MoreDakka hip-mounted machine guns]]. In several video games adaptations which share the same universe as the anime (or crossover like in ''VideoGame/DigimonDigitalCardBattle'') where Wormmon has his own Ultimate form (Dinobeemon), Paildramon is Veemon's natural Ultimate form.
34	* '''Mega''':
35	** '''DNA/Natural''': Imperialdramon Dragon Mode, an Ancient Dragon Digimon with black armor dragon with red wings. In several video games adaptations which share the same universe as the anime (or crossover like in ''VideoGame/DigimonDigitalCardBattle'') where Wormmon has his own Mega form ([=GranKuwagamon=]), Imperialdramon Dragon Mode is Veemon's natural Mega form.
36	** '''DNA''':
37	*** Imperialdramon Fighter Mode, a humanoid version of Imperialdramon.
38	*** Imperialdramon Paladin Mode, basically an [[PaletteSwap all-white Fighter Mode]] with a {{BFS}}.
39
40	----
41	* AdaptationalWimp: Imperialdramon is referenced in the dub as being 3 times stronger than normal Megas but this dialogue isn't present in the original Japanese. It is played straight with Dragon Mode. In most fiction he's a reasonably powerful Mega, whereas in the series he's noticably weaker than Fighter Mode (who's normal form is comparable to the [=WarGreymon=] and whose infected version is overpowered by Rosemon and Vikemon), which would make him among the weakest partner Megas in the franchise.
42	* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Has a crush on Gatomon, similar to how Davis, his partner, has a crush on Kari, Gatomon's partner. He and Davis try to get him to Digivolve in hopes of impressing both of their crushes.
43	* AmbiguousRobots: Imperialdramon is officially classified as an ancient dragon, but appears to be a Mecha or at least a cyborg. This goes for his mode changes as well.
44	* AmbiguouslyBi: Veemon seems to have a crush on Tailmon/Gatomon which comes out of nowhere, lasts for about 10 seconds and is never brought up or mentioned again. But the way he talks to and acts around Daisuke really makes it seem like he considers Daisuke something more than just a friend...
45	* AwesomeButTemporary: In contrast to other Armor forms, Magnamon isn't a permanent member of Davis and Veemon's arsenal. The [=DigiEgg=] of Miracles only exists for brief periods of time for Davis to use, and all uses of it results in or is because of circumstances that wouldn't allow it to be used easily again. After its initial use in fighting Kimeramon, it's returned to being the Crest of Kindness, which is lost once Ken uses it to destroy his base. When Seraphimon and Magnadramon recreate it to fight Cherubimon, it disappears once Cherubimon is deleted. And during the [[CrisisCrossover battle with Quartzmon,]] Magnamon quickly runs out of power, requiring Davis and Veemon instead DNA Digivolve with Ken and Stingmon straight into Imperialdramon.
46	* BareFistedMonk: As Veemon, he's classified as a Combat Species Digimon, meaning he has a natural talent for battle. All of his abilities involve using physical attacks such as punches, kicks, and headbutts.
47	* {{BFG}}: The Giga Crusher, which shoots so-called Dark Matter. While it is quite powerful on its own, it pales in comparison to....
48	* {{BFS}}: The Omega Sword, born of Omnimon's data. Able to take out Armageddemon with ease.
49	* BishonenLine: Imperialdramon Fighter Mode is this to Dragon Mode.
50	* BreathWeapon: Imperialdramon's FinishingMove is comprised of him spitting out a supermassive quantity of dark matter that creates an InstantDeathRadius reaching a few hundred meters. Its name? [[Music/{{Megadeth}} Mega Death]].
51	* ChestBlaster: Imperialdramon Fighter Mode and [=ExVeemon=].
52	* CompressedVice: His crush on Gatomon is only ever brought up in a single episode.
53	* CrossdressingVoices: Japanese version only, though in the English version, he still applies as Chibomon.
54	* DraconicHumanoid: [=ExVeemon=] and Paildramon.
55	* DragonKnight: Magnamon is a draconic Holy Knight Digimon. Paildramon, on the other hand, is more like "Dragon [[TheGunslinger Gunslinger]]". The Imperialdramon line fits this to a t as well, although they look more like mechs than classic knights.
56	* ElementalPowers: Fire as Fladramon, lightning as Lighdramon, and light as Magnamon.
57	* {{Expy}}: Of [[Manga/DigimonVTamer01 Veedramon]].
58	* FragileSpeedster: Raidramon moves quickly, but doesn't pack as much of a punch as Flamedramon.
59	* FusionDance: DNA Digivolves with Stingmon to form Paildramon, and from there Imperialdramon, but V-mon's the stronger influence on their combined form's shape.
60	* GlassCannon: Flamedramon packs quite a punch, especially with Fire Rocket, but he doesn't take a hit well, and he's not overly fast on his feet either.
61	* GoldenSuperMode: Magnamon, who is coated in golden plates of armor.
62	* HotPaintJob: Flamedramon's armor, lifted directly from the Digi-egg of Courage.
63	* HourOfPower: Magnamon can only exist for short periods of time before losing all his energy.
64	* 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--Raidramon and Flamedramon, respectively--who specialize in them, quickly making those forms all but obsolete. Magnamon, he's not, but he is easily the next best thing.
65	* {{Keet}}: ''Extremely'' so, just like his human partner.
66	* KungFuWizard: Flamedramon fights by shooting flames in conjunction with physical moves.
67	* LargeHam: All of his forms from [=ExVeemon=] onward don't speak so much as roar all of their lines in the dub.
68	* 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.
69	* LizardFolk: Veemon and Flamedramon.
70	* MoreDakka: Paildramon has two machine guns that shoot energy blasts. Magnamon can launch a whole host of missiles off of his person as well.
71	* NonFatalExplosion: Magnamon, when he uses his Magna Explosion attack. At worst, he will just Devolve to a lower level, being drained of most of his energy.
72	* OurCentaursAreDifferent: As Sagittarimon only.
73	* OurDragonsAreDifferent: He's a dragon-type digimon. Bipedal, blue, sometimes with wings (when he digivolves into [=ExVeemon=]).
74	* ThePaladin: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Imperialdramon Paladin mode, obviously]], and also Magnamon, a Holy Knight Digimon.
75	* PintSizedPowerhouse: At least in comparison to other Digimon. Veemon's normal sized, but all three of his armor forms are much smaller than most champions, and even [=ExVeemon=] is still on the smaller size. Paildramon is also pretty tiny compared to say, [=MetalGreymon=] or Garudamon. [[LargeAndInCharge This all goes out the window when he reaches his Mega level]]
76	* PowerMakesYourVoiceDeep: High and kind of boyish as Veemon, his Armor evolutions get the deeper tones of Creator/SteveBlum. [=ExVeemon=] isn't quite as deep as them, but slightly deeper than Veemon's.
77	* PrimaryColorChampion: Veemon is a blue-skinned reptile with red eyes and yellow marks on his face. As Flamedramon he retains the blue skin and gains red and yellow armor. As Magnamon he has gold armor and blue skin.
78	* SpeechImpediment: In the English dub, he speaks with a lisp, pronouncing "s" as "sh".
79	* StoryBreakerPower: Prior to Tri, Paladin Mode is easily the most powerful hero digimon in the adventure anime and a serious contender for one of the most powerful digimon in any of the series, 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.
80	* SuperMode: He's got two, actually. Imperialdramon is his mega form, which is normally a more traditional looking dragon, but he can shift into Fighter Mode to take a humanoid appearance. And then by combining powers with Omnimon, he can become Paladin Mode.
81	* TemporaryBulkChange: [=ExVeemon=].
82	* TransformingMecha: Imperialdramon's Mode Change from Dragon to [[HumongousMecha Fighter]] would do Franchise/{{Transformers}} proud.
83	* TheWorfEffect: Despite being established as a reasonably powerful mega (he even touts himself as " the most powerful digimon of all" in his dragon form), he spends most of his fights getting beaten into the ground to hype up his current opponent.

88	->'''Voiced by:'''
89	-->'''Japanese:''' Koichi Tochika\

94	[[quoteright:164:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Hawkmon_8816.gif]]
95
96	Yolei's partner, a gentlemanly hawk-like Digimon who is about the only known case of a Digimon partner the opposite gender of their Digidestined. A little more down-to-earth than Yolei, but that doesn't stop him showing off.
97
98	His digivolutions are as follows:
99	* '''Fresh''': Pururumon, a pink blob with a beak.
100	* '''In-Training''': Poromon, a tiny pink ball with wings and a feather. Blows bubbles.
101	* '''Rookie''': Hawkmon, his default form.
102	* '''Armors''':
103	** '''[[BlowYouAway Love]]''': Halsemon ''(Holsmon)'', a [[OurGryphonsAreDifferent gryphon]] that uses the digimental as face and back plating.
104	** '''[[GreenThumb Sincerity]]''': Shurimon, a plant-themed {{Ninja}}.
105	** '''[[ShockAndAwe Friendship]]''': Rinkmon, a badass-looking cyborg with shiny electric armor. Only appears in CD Drama ''Armor Evolution to the Unknown''.
106	** '''Courage''': Allomon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
107	** '''Knowledge''': Flybeemon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
108	** '''Reliability''': Orcamon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
109	** '''Hope''': Moosemon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
110	** '''Light''': Harpymon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
111	** '''Kindness''': Toucanmon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
112	** '''Miracles''': Peacockmon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
113	* '''Champion''': Aquilamon, a big red eagle with horns.
114	* '''Ultimate (DNA/Natural)''': Silphymon, a white & red warrior with Aquilamon'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.
115	* '''Mega (DNA/Natural)''': Valkyrimon, an eagle-themed warrior only seen in the Wonder Swan games.
116
117	----
118	* AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal: A belt around his head, which secures his extra feather.
119	* AdaptationalComicRelief: Made a slightly more comedic character in the dub, whereas in the Japanese version he was a lot more serious.
120	* AmbiguousGender: The issue becomes muddled due to the female Gatomon doing a FusionDance with the male Aquilamon. That, and the fact that Silphymon and Valkyrimon are named after ''female'' mythical creatures. In instances of Hawkmon evolving to Silphymon on his own, the ambiguity dries up.
121	* AnIcePerson: Valkyrimon's Fenrir Sword can freeze opponents.
122	* BishonenLine: Silphymon and Valkyrimon. Understable as Aquilamon fuses with Gatomon [[AngelicBeauty whose evolutions]] are among the most beautiful in the Digital World.
123	* BreathWeapon: Aquilamon's Blast Rings come from his beak.
124	* CoolSword: Valkyrimon's Fenrir Sword.
125	* ElementalPowers: Mostly BlowYouAway, but he also has a GreenThumb as Shurimon.
126	* EnergyRingAttack: Aquilamon's primary move is "Blast Rings", a beam of red energy rings fired from his beak.
127	* EyeBeams: Halsemon's Eagle Eye.
128	* FeatherFlechettes: Hawkmon's Feather Strike involves him tossing his head feather like a bladed boomerang.
129	* GiantFlyer: His further evolutions, particularly Aquilamon.
130	* HollywoodCyborg: As Rinkmon.
131	* HornAttack: Aquilamon's Grand Horn.
132	* HypnoticEyes: Halsemon's Eagle Eye can paralyze opponents.
133	* KamehameHadoken: Silphymon's Static Force.
134	* LadyAndKnight: In the Japanese version (and AllThereInTheManual in the dub), this is how he sees his relationship with Miyako/Yolei.
135	* LargeHam: In the Japanese version.
136	* MeaningfulName: Aquilamon's "Aquila" is Latin for eagle.
137	* {{Ninja}}: Shurimon is dressed as one and uses typical ninja weapons (shuriken) and abilities (multiplication).
138	* NobleBirdOfPrey: Whether original or dub he is a powerful bird with a refined persona.
139	* PlantPerson: Shurimon is a humanoid mass of vines.
140	* PollyWantsAMicrophone: Another talking bird. Justified because he's a Digimon.
141	* QuintessentialBritishGentleman: In the dub. He is more of a samurai in the Japanese (which is ironic as one of his evolutions is a ninja).
142	* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: Hawkmon is the savvy guy to Miyako's energetic girl.
143	* ScarfOfAsskicking: Rinkmon wears this.
144	* ShesAManInJapan: In the Italian dub, Hawkmon is a female.
145	* TheAce: While it goes a bit under the radar; Silphymon never lost to another Ultimate-level digimon, and in fights where both are present, did not perform notably any worse than Imperaldramon, a Mega. Siplhymon notably oneshot Ladydevimon when forced to do so, who Angewomon; despite HolyBurnsEvil giving her a boost, could not defeat. This heavily implies Silphymon is an extremely powerful Ultimate-level, and is notably SIGNIFICANTLY stronger than Angewomon is.
146	* UndyingLoyalty: While all Digimon have this towards their partners, Hawkmon was the most explicit about it in the Japanese version, to the point of seeing himself as Miyako's knight. Less prominent in the dub.
147	** Hawkmon [As Silphymon; so some of this could be Gatomon's influence] is willing to go against Yolei's wishes if her wellbeing is in danger however, as he kills Ladydevimon, which Yolei has been attempting desperately to avoid, when the enemy is about to kill her.
148	* VSign: Does this a lot, for some reason.
149	* WingedHumanoid: Valkyrimon. As a bonus, he looks more human than Silphymon who still looks like a bird man.

161
162	Cody's partner, a burrowing Digimon with a southern accent in the dub. He has a very grounded, folksy personality to contrast Cody's calmness.
163
164	* '''Fresh''': Tsubumon, a yellow ball with a feather.
165	* '''In-Training''': Upamon, a tiny yellow ball with "gills" on the sides of his head. Blows bubbles.
166	* '''Rookie''': Armadillomon, his default form.
167	* '''Armors''':
168	** '''[[DishingOutDirt Knowledge]]''': Digmon, a big yellow mole cricket that shoots drills.
169	** '''[[MakingASplash Reliability]]''': Submarimon, a submarine with a [[ChainsawGood chainsaw nose]]. Strongly resembles a narwhal.
170	** '''Love''': Pteramon, an armored pterosaur who can fires missile from his wings. Only appears in CD Drama ''Armor Evolution to the Unknown''.
171	** '''Courage''': Boarmon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
172	** '''Friendship''': Sepikmon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
173	** '''Sincerity''': Frogmon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.

177	** '''Miracles''': Elephantmon, only appears in the D-3 virtual pet.
178	* '''Champion''': [[ToughArmoredDinosaur Ankylomon]], an [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin ankylosaurus]].
179	* '''Ultimate (DNA/Natural)''': Shakkoumon, a white and gold angel/''Dogu'' combination. 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.
180	* '''Mega''': [[AnIcePerson Vikemon]], a viking walrus-like creature only seen in the Wonder Swan games.
181
182	----
183	* AccentAdaptation: Armadillomon's Nagoya accent was changed to a Western accent in the English dub. Other dubs like the European Spanish had him talking ''[[ElmuhFuddSyndwome thiz]]'' way.
184	* AmbiguousRobots: Submarimon. Officially referred to as an 'Aquatic Digimon' or a 'Sea Animal Digimon', he is a living submarine and has next to no apparent organic parts.
185	* AwesomeButImpractical: Digmon has two smaller arms below his drills that resemble shovels but they do nothing at all, they're just there to give Digmon an insectoid appearance.
186	* CrossdressingVoices: Japanese and Spanish version only.
187	* DeadlyDisc: Shakkoumon's Nigimitama.
188	%%* ElementalPowers
189	* EpicFlail: Ankylomon's spiky tail end.
190	* EyeBeams: Shakkoumon's Justice Beam.
191	* MakingASplash: Submarimon. However, his "Oxygen Homing" attack is more fit for BlowYouAway because it is literally ''oxygen'' fired as a torpedo! [[IfItSwimsItFlies And it also flies]] as invoked by Ken when he was saved from drowning.
192	* GeniusBonus: From the dub, it's name of "Oxygen Torpedo" may not sound very fearsome, but that is the literal translation of the Japanese name for the famous (and deadly) Type 93 Long-Lance torpedo.
193	* MightyGlacier: As Shakkoumon, he (and Angemon) move rather slow compared to his other allies, but is able to dish out and sustain a large deal of pain; enough to turn the tide and critically harm [=BlackWarGreymon=] while before his arrival the other Ultimates could not even scratch him.
194	* OurAngelsAreDifferent: Shakkoumon, who partly derives his inspiration from an ancient japanese artifact.
195	* RollingAttack: Armadillomon's Diamond Shell attack.
196	* SapientCetaceans: Submarimon resembles a narwhal and is officially a "Sea Animal" Digimon.
197	* SpikesOfDoom: Ankylomon, who is covered with spiked plates, spiked cinctures, and a spiked "helmet". His tail is also packed with them.
198	* ThisIsADrill: Digmon has drills over his hands and nose.
199	* ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman: Submarimon is useful ''only'' when they are fighting in a water-based area.
200	* TheAce: Shakkoumon, like Silphymon, never lost against an equivalent-leveled digimon, and performed on par with Imperaldramon in most cases despite being only an Ultimate. He defeated Marinedevimon fairly easily, while the equal-ranked Skullsatamon needed Imperaldramon to go into Fighter Mode. Also, Shakkoumon's presence turned the tables notably against Blackwargreymon, to the point Paildramon and Silphymon went from mostly hapless to almost killing him. All of this combined likly makes Shakkoumon amoung the strongest Ultimates in the Adventure universe.
201	* ToughArmoredDinosaur: Armadillomon, based on an armored mammal, digivolves to a Digimon based on one of the best known armored dinosaurs ever: Ankylomon. It fits very much.
202	* TrademarkFavoriteFood: In the Japanese version, Cody's mother's ohagi. While everyone seems to like them, Armadimon/Upamon seems to like them more so than others.
203	* UselessUsefulSpell: 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.
204	* VerbalTic: "-dagya", or "Yo!" in the dub.
205	* YellowPurpleContrast: Digmon has purple accents on his yellow armor.
206	* WildWestArmadillo: He is given a Texan accent in the English dub.

219	First seen as the Digimon Emperor's minion, a caterpillar-like Digimon who eventually rebels to help the Digidestined defeat him. Doesn't do too much after Ken's HeelFaceTurn, but evolves into Stingmon and is awesome.
220
221	* '''Fresh''': Leafmon, a green blob with a leaf.
222	* '''In-Training''': Minomon, looks like Wormmon's head attached to a pinecone[[note]]actually based on a Bagworm, which collects detritus to put around its body for protection[[/note]]. Blows bubbles.

227	** '''Light''': Quetzalmon, an armored [[Myth/AztecMythology Quetzalcoatl]] who can uses various wind and ice-based attacks. Only appears in a crossover in ''VideoGame/DigimonDigitalCardBattle''.

242	*** Imperialdramon Fighter Mode, a humanoid version of Imperialdramon.
243	*** Imperialdramon Paladin Mode, basically an all-white Fighter Mode with a {{BFS}}.
244	** '''Natural''': [=GranKuwagamon=], a giant insect reminiscent of Imperialdramon, only seen in the Wonder Swan games and in a crossover in ''VideoGame/DigimonDigitalCardBattle''.
245
246	----
247	* AccompliceByInaction: Discussed; while he didn't actively participate in Ken's campaign as the Digimon Emperor, and tried to serve as his MoralityPet, he still stood back and and did nothing while Ken enslaved and tortured countless innocent Digimon. In "United We Stand," he states outright that because of this, he's just as guilty for the Emperor fiasco as Ken himself.
248	* AdaptationalBadass: Stingmon is undoubtedly badass, but no one could reasonably expect him to take on Ultimate or Mega Digimon in a fight. In the ''Rumble Arena'' series, he can.
249	* TheAtoner: In "United We Stand", he tells [=ExVeemon=] that he is just as guilty for the Emperor fiasco given he allowed Ken to do his horrible acts as the Emperor instead of stopping him.
250	* BattleButler: His dub voice gave this image even more.
251	* BigCreepyCrawlies: Stingmon, Dinobeemon, [=GranKuwagamon=], and Shadramon.
252	* BladeBelowTheShoulder: Stingmon's attacking weapon, the Spiking Strike.
253	* BumblingSidekick: At first, he gets no respect.
254	* ChestBlaster: Imperialdramon Fighter Mode
255	* TheConscience: Wormmon plays a badly mistreated and loyal conscience to Ken.
256	* CowardlyLion: He's meek and gentle, but he'll do ''anything'' for Ken.
257	* DarkIsNotEvil: Wormmon is notably a Virus-type, but doesn't seem to be that much of a bad guy - not even if he serves the Emperor. [[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.]]
258	* GoThroughMe: Tries doing this in the second episode, but it doesn't work. Gatomon just punches him out of the way.
259	* HappinessInSlavery: Sort of. He serves Ken as any Digimon partner would, but doesn't enjoy his ill treatment.
260	* HeroicSacrifice: A rather infamous one, when he gives up his power and dies for Ken's sake. He did get better though and indeed [[HeelFaceTurn the sacrifice did Ken some good in the long run]].
261	* InnocentBlueEyes: Well, not ''completely'' innocent, a fact he eventually cops to, but Wormmon's bright blue puppy-dog eyes are a rarity for a Virus type Digimon, and help serve as a visual indicator to his morality.
262	* LargeHam: As Stingmon, in the English dub.
263	* LoveMartyr: Non-romantic example. Wormmon put up with a lot of abuse from [[spoiler: Ken while he was the Digimon Emperor and continued to stick with him for quite a long time]].
264	* MagikarpPower: Not to the extent of Patamon/Angemon in the first series, but Wormmon is pretty weak while Stingmon and further evolutions with [=ExVeemon=] are quite powerful.
265	* MinionWithAnFInEvil: During the Kaiser arc. He stays at Ken's side, but only out of loyalty.
266	* MoralityPet: Tried to be this to Ken when he was the Kaiser. He didn't do a very good job...it took him ''dying'' to bring Ken back to reality.
267	* MrFanservice: As Stingmon, to the point that he manages to attract Rosa, a young Mexican Digi-Destined girl.
268	* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Will serve Ken no matter what, even if he's the Digimon Emperor. [[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.]]
269	* OutOfCharacterMoment: A ''hilarious'' example in the World Tour arc. When Chichos[=/=]Rosa expresses interest in Ken, he does a lot of bizarrely uncharacteristic things to get Ken's attention. Yeah...
270	* PetTheDog: During the Kaiser arc, he at one point frees a captured Agumon, destroying the Evil Ring and releasing him from Ken's base.
271	* PowerMakesYourVoiceDeep: Not a very intimidating sounding guy as Wormmon, on evolution to the more capable Stingmon his voice gets ''much'' deeper.
272	%%* ThePromise
273	* TheQuietOne: As Stingmon, at least.
274	* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: When he finally had enough of Ken's actions as the Digimon Emperor, that was the time he stood up.
275	-->'''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 may 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!
276	* RedemptionPromotion: During the Emperor Arc where he was an AccompliceByInaction, he mostly was just abused by Ken. After reviving and joining the good guys, he gains the ability to reach the Champion level Stingmon, who is not only able to fly, but is also much more skilled as a close combatant. Couple that with him and [=ExVeemon=] being the first to DNA Digivolve, as well as Paildramon itself being the only one of the bunch that can go Mega, it's safe to say Wormmon's got this trope cut out for him.
277	* 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.
278	* TookALevelInBadass: Initially a ButtMonkey MinionWithAnFInEvil during Ken's stint as Emperor, but when he's able to evolve into Stingmon, who in his second fight was eventually matched Golemon, who had taken on the rest of the main Digimon and [[CurbStompBattle curbstomped]] them.
279	* UndyingLoyalty: To the point where Ken didn't have to put a ring on him at the time when he was the Kaiser. He was only loyal to Ken, not the Kaiser, and promptly knocks him off of Devidramon. However, in the original Japanese and somewhat in the Spanish, Wormmon's single-minded devotion to Ken reaches SingleTargetSexuality levels and is PlayedForLaughs.
