1'''''Children of Time''''' is a series of ''Franchise/{{Digimon}}'' {{Fan Fic}}s written by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/4114502/Zero-Unit-RGB Zero Unit RGB]], written in celebration of the Digimon franchise's 15th anniversary. The series in general makes efforts to link the six different ''Digimon'' television series (''Anime/DigimonAdventure'', ''Anime/DigimonAdventure02'', ''Anime/DigimonTamers'', ''Anime/DigimonFrontier'', ''Anime/DigimonDataSquad'', and ''Anime/DigimonFusion'') together into [[CanonWelding one coherent continuity]]. There are currently three fics in this series:
2
3* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10331609/1/Children-of-the-Past Children of the Past]]'', which centers on the original [=DigiDestined=] group before Taichi Yagami's.
4* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9540474/1/Children-of-the-Present Children of the Present]]'', which details the protagonists of all six series meeting and joining forces.
5* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11506708/1/Children-of-the-Future Children of the Future]]'', a direct sequel to ''Children of the Present'' which picks up after that fic's ending.
6
7Unlike most Digimon crossover fanfics, Zero Unit RGB has taken all the source material of each series, run with it and taken it up a notch with all the possible references of the entire franchise... to the point that the series themselves are stacked up into a ridiculously elaborate timeline.
8
9Not to be confused with [[FanFic/ChildrenOfTime another fic of the same name]].

11As of July 12th, 2018, Zero decided to leave Fanfiction.net due to experiences with hostile users and migrated to Website/ArchiveOfOurOwn. He had not made any updates to either ''Children of the Past'' nor ''Children of the Future'' since February 14, 2018, and according to his tumblr page, while he had hoped to update it eventually, it had become an OldShame, leaving the series presumed dead for some time. It would surprisingly get updated again though a little over ''[[ScheduleSlip four years later]]'', now advertising it was [[https://archiveofourown.org/series/2836849 fully migrated]] to Website/ArchiveOfOurOwn.

13----
14!!''Children of Time'' contains examples of the following tropes:
15
16[[foldercontrol]]
17
18[[folder:As a Whole]]
19* AdaptationalBadass: Various characters reach higher levels, while [[Anime/DigimonDataSquad Relena]] gets a Bearmon partner.
20* AdaptedOut: Due to being released after the fic had already established it's own take on the Original [=DigiDestined=] mythos and post-02 events, [[spoiler:the events of Anime/DigimonAdventureTri, particularly the characters Meiko, Meicoomon, Daigo, and Maki, are all absent here, with the Monster Makers instead being the Original [=DigiDestined=].]]
21* AlternateUniverseFic: The fic ignores the various anime series taking place across TheMultiverse in favor of a unified world.
22* AlwaysIdenticalTwins: In chapter 6 of ''Present'', Ruki is revealed to have an identical twin sister named Risa, though Risa has dyed her hair blonde.
23* AnyoneCanDie: [[spoiler:Well, not Main cast, but any Digimon from any of the franchises can be killed off. Tagiru's Metal-Tyrannomon dies protecting him from Dorbickmon and then has his data loaded by Dorbickmon, meaning he is effictively a part of Dorbickmon now. The Royal Knights from ''Savers'' are all deleted by the Demon Lords (Except Omnimon, Magnamon, and Kentaurusmon)[[note]]Digimon deleted by a Demon Lord cannot reformat/be reborn, so they are KilledOffForReal[[/note]], then brought back as slaves, their only salvation being the hopes they get deleted. All of the Deva (Minus the already living Antylamon (As Lopmon) are revived before the series begins, only to fall to the Demon Lords as well and be made into slaves, and when Yuu tried to hunt them, there was too little data for them to be truly hunted. [[VideoGame/DigimonWorldDawnDusk City]] was attacked by the Demon Lord and left few survivors, including killing all of Koh and Sayo's partners aside from their Olympos XII Members.[[note]][[Anime/DigimonFusion Apollomon and Marsmon]] for Koh, Dianamon and Venusmon for Sayo.[[/note]] And the body count is still rising.]]
24* BackFromTheDead:
25** [[spoiler:The Demon Lords revive numerous enemies of each Chosen group, and implant them with coding that forces them to serve them. The only options in regards of beating them are deleting them, or hunting them.]]
26*** [[spoiler:Of note are the three former generals of the Bagra Army, and the Seven Death Generals. All three former generals are hunted by Ryouma's group[[note]]Ryouma hunted Tactimon, Ren hunted Blastmon, and Airu hunted Laylamon (The Non-Demon Lord Version)[[/note]], and several of the Death General's make [[HeelFaceTurn Heel Face Turns.]][[note]]Akari hunts Splashmon, Zenjirou hunts Olegmon, Tagiru hunts Dorbickmon, Apollomon is reunited with his tamer Koh, and Gravimon is forced to join Kiriha's Blue Flare Army while under the effects of Venusmon's hypnotism.[[/note]]]]
27*** [[spoiler:Myotismon is revived in all three forms as separate Digimon, and all three must be killed simultaneously in order to beat them.]]
28** [[spoiler:Ryouma's real Psychemon was revived as a Kuramon, and proceeded to follow Ryouma around before rejoining him.]]
29** [[spoiler:Juri's Leomon is revived as a Leormon.]]
30** [[spoiler:Wizardmon is restored to the physical plane thanks to Sanzomon, just in time to reunite with his old partner Rai.]]
31* BloodierAndGorier: While not overly graphic, there have been three instances of BloodFromTheMouth on the Chosen Children's end.
32* CanonWelding: In this fic, all six seasons of the ''Digimon'' anime have been combined into one coherent continuity, with several examples:
33** The Monster Makers (Robert [=McCoy=], Janyu Wong, Shibumi, Babel, Daisy, and Rai), are revealed [[spoiler: to be the original [=DigiDestined=] group, predating Taichi's]]. Not only that, but [[spoiler:the Wizardmon that [[HeroicSacrifice died protecting Hikari and Gatomon]] is revealed to be Rai's partner.]]
34** Additionally, [[spoiler:Babel, Daisy, and Rai]] are revealed to be the parents of Phil, Anna, and Mina, respectively, three of the international [=DigiDestined=] that Taichi and the others encountered during the Digimon World Tour.
35** Yushima is revealed to be [[spoiler: the father of Shibumi]].
36** Shibumi is revealed to have [[spoiler: co-founded DATS alongside Suguru Daimon]], as well as having been responsible for [[spoiler: the appearance of the Greymon and Parrotmon that Taichi's group saw fighting eleven years previously]].
37** While it's left ambiguous as to whether or not ''Anime/DigimonXEvolution'' is part of the timeline here, there ''have'' been numerous mentions of the X-Antibody.
38** The Royal Knights from ''Savers'' are shown to be the same individuals as their other depictions of their species in the anime, the group having broken apart following Yggdrasil's actions and Masaru's destroying them. The only exception to this is Gallantmon, who is a separate entity from Takato and Guilmon's Matrix Evolution.
39*** Omnimon had stepped down as leader of the group and, with the aid of Homeostasis and the Sovereign, split himself into the Agumon and Gabumon that would one day be partnered with Taichi and Yamato, neither possessing their memory of being Omnimon.
40*** [[AdaptationalVillainy Dynasmon]] and Crusadermon, frustrated at being bested by DATS, gave into the temptations of Lucemon and became his enforcers.
41*** Magnamon vanished following the reveal of Yggdrasil's faults, sealing himself within the Digimental of Courage until he was eventually found and awoken by Daisuke, now as the amnesiac Veemon.
42** [[spoiler:VideoGame/DigimonWorldDawnDusk is explained as City being a colony established in the Digital World by Human Immigrants centuries ago, with Glare, Julia, Koh, and Sayo all joining the main cast, and Dorothy is mentioned as being one of the survivors.]]
43** Similar to the Royal Knights, the Olympos XII are comprised of members from different series, all of them, even the ones who should be DeaderThanDead, being hunted by the Demon Lords.
44*** Apollomon and Marsmon of the Sun Wheel Army in ''Xros Wars'' were originally part of the group, before becoming [[spoiler:Koh's]] partners and then being conscripted into the Bagra Army.
45*** Dianamon and Venusmon became [[spoiler:Sayo]]'s partners, the latter never leaving the Digivice due to her pacifism.
46*** Merukimon from ''Savers'', despite being killed by a Gizumon, is alive once again after his data was reconstructed, [[spoiler:under the control of the Demon Lords]].
47*** Minervamon at some point split off a portion of her data, giving birth to [[spoiler:Mervamon, who would go on to partner with Nene.]]
48*** At an unknown point, Neptunemon was deleted, his data being scattered throughout the realms. Two significant portions would end up reforming, one in the ''Tamers'' Digital World as [[spoiler:[=MarineAngemon=]]], the other taking residence in [[spoiler:Kenta]].
49* ComicBooksAreReal: Due to the CanonWelding. Takato is surprised to discover early on that the ''Digimon'' television show is all real events, and that Taichi and his friends all actually went through it all.
50* CosmicRetcon: In ''Present'', it's explained that after the events of ''02'', Gennai, insisting that TheMasquerade still has to be maintained for a little while longer, not only erased the memories of everyone who wasn't a [=DigiDestined=] or a family member of the [=DigiDestined=], but also somehow created the ''Digimon'' franchise as shown in ''Tamers''.
51* CrisisCrossover: The main plot of ''Present'' and ''Future'' centers around the heroes of all six series banding together.
52* DeathIsCheap: As revealed in ''Present'' chapter 7, now that the Digital Worlds have become one again, all Digimon are once again reborn as Digi-Eggs rather than simply being destroyed completely, much to the Tamers' relief. If a Digimon is killed in the [=DigiQuartz=], or by one of the Demon Lords, however, they'll be DeaderThanDead.
53* DubNameChange: {{Inverted|Trope}}. Initially, the fic proper used the dub names for all but the ''Anime/DigimonFusion'' cast. After it was {{uncancelled}} and uploaded to Website/ArchiveOfOurOwn however, it was edited to instead have the cast referred to by their original names, the only exception being Yutaka due to him not ''having'' a name in the original.
54* ElementalPowers: A carry-over from canon.
55** AnIcePerson: The Warrior of Ice and a few of the other partners.
56** CastingAShadow: The Warrior of Darkness.
57** DishingOutDirt: The Warrior of Earth and a few of the other partners.
58** GreenThumb: The Warrior of Wood and a few of the other partners.
59** MakingASplash: The Warrior of Water and a few of the other partners.
60** PlayingWithFire: The Warrior of Flame and a few of the other partners.
61* EvilTeacher: Kurosaki, who is revealed to [[spoiler: be in league with the Demon Lords, as well as having participated in the Dark Spore experiments]].
62* GenerationXerox: Each member of the original [=DigiDestined=] has similarities to the current ones, best shown in ''Past'':
63** [[spoiler:Robert]] shares traits with the [[TheLeader leaders]] of the different groups, most notably Taichi. He [[GogglesDoNothing wears goggles]], enjoys playing soccer, and has a reptilian/draconic Digimon for a partner.
64** [[spoiler:Rai]] bares similarities to both Hikari and Sora. In the case of the former, she's the youngest member of the group who everyone looks out for, and in the case of the latter, she's [[TheHeart the glue who holds her team together]].
65** [[spoiler:Babel]] is similar to Jyou, being the oldest member of his team and having an aquatic Digimon for a partner.
66** [[spoiler:Janyu]] is also similar to Takeru, starting out as a crybaby and afraid to do much.
67* GogglesDoNothing: A ''Digimon'' mainstay. Lampshaded by Babel in ''Past'' chapter 1:
68-->'''Babel''': What are you even doing with those goggles? Did the guy who gave you your D-Sync tell you that you were going for a swim or something?\
69'''Robert''': Hey! For your information, this is part of my outfit!
70* IdenticalTwinIDTag: Having two Agumons in the whole alliance would normally be confusing. Fortunately, thanks to his red armbands, Masaru's Agumon partner can be told from Taichi's. Masaru's partner even commented on how they looked different.
71* MarkOfTheSupernatural: Several of the Tamers bear the insignia of the Zero Unit somewhere on their bodies; Takato's is on his chest, Jian's is on his back, Ruki's is on her shoulder, [[spoiler:Kenta's is on his left palm, and Juri's is on her stomach]].
72* MemoryWipingCrew: It's explained that the reason that most people don't remember the attacks of the D-Reaper and Yggdrasil is because Hypnos and D.A.T.S. used government technology to erase everyone's memories of the events.
73* MergedReality: Played with. It's explained that the different versions of the Digital World as seen in ''[[Anime/DigimonAdventure Adventure]]''[=/=]''[[Anime/DigimonAdventure02 02]]'', ''[[Anime/DigimonTamers Tamers]]'', ''[[Anime/DigimonFrontier Frontier]]'', and ''[[Anime/DigimonDataSquad Savers]]'' were all once one composite world, but were broken apart when the original [=DigiDestined=] defeated the darkness present during that time. After Taichi, Daisuke, Takato, Takuya, and Masaru's respective groups saved each one, they have since merged back together into a single world.
74* MultinationalTeam: The original [=DigiDestined=] team; [[spoiler:Robert and Babel are American, Daisy is Russian, Rai is Indian, Janyu is Chinese, and Shibumi is Japanese]].
75* NoHuggingNoKissing: The writer has confirmed that, while there ''will'' be ShipTease, there will be no actual romance in the series; to drive that point home, Yamato and Sora, who had become an OfficialCouple at the end of ''02'', have broken up by the time of ''Present''.
76* NotQuiteBackToNormal: After the events of ''Frontier'', it's revealed that Takuya's group still retain some aspects of their Digimon forms even as humans, in the form of ElementalPowers and SuperSenses.
77* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Daisy's real name is revealed to be Margaritka in ''Past''. Her Salamon partner is the one who dubs her Daisy, since "Margaritka" means "Daisy" in Russian.
78* RequiredSecondaryPowers: The downsides of having SuperSenses are addressed in ''Present'' chapter 15 with Takuya's group, with at least three of them suffering {{Sensory Overload}}s.
79* SensoryOverload: Izumi, Junpei, and Koji all discovered the downsides of having SuperSenses as such. Izumi compares hearing her alarm clock to standing inside a giant bell, Junpei describes trying spicy ravioli at an Italian restaurant as "the worst decision he ever made," and Koji warns the others never to walk past an alley where garbage accumulates and there's no one to throw it out if they have a heightened sense of smell.
80* SuperSenses: Takuya's group all possess one enhanced sense, even in human form; Takuya has super-sight, Koji has super-smell, Izumi has super-hearing, Junpei has super-taste, and Tomoki has super-sense of touch.
81* TokyoIsTheCenterOfTheUniverse: The bulk of the Chosen Children are centered in Japan, and most Digimon bio-emergences are centered around it. In chapter 24 of ''Present'', in the wake [[spoiler:of TheUnmasquedWorld and the chaos inflicted by Keramon's digivolution line, Izumi's mother actually suggests it's safer to move out of Japan]].
82* TomboyAndGirlyGirl:
83** Ruki is the Tomboy to Risa's Girly Girl, best shown upon Risa's introduction in ''Present'' chapter 6 with their clothing preferences; Ruki wears a spike-studded leather jacket, whereas Risa wears a blouse and heels.
84** Daisy is the Tomboy to Rai's Girly Girl in ''Past''. Daisy is a {{Tomboy}} with BoyishShortHair, whereas Rai has [[LongHairIsFeminine feminine long hair]].
85* {{Yakuza}}: It's revealed in ''Present'' chapter 26 that [[spoiler: Ryo is the heir to a yakuza family, and Ruki's grandmother was once a mob wife]].
86[[/folder]]
87
88[[folder:Children of the Past]]
89* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Both Janyu and Daisy were bullied back home before ending up in the Digital World.
90* BoyishShortHair: Daisy, which contributes to her {{Tomboy}} image.
91* ConscienceMakesYouGoBack: In chapter 8, Daisy and Babel suffer a HeroicBSOD after a near-miss with [=NeoDevimon=] and decide to leave the group and find a way home. However, after seeing the devastation caused by Apocalymon's minions in the next chapter, they change their minds and return to help the others.
92* CrossPoppingVeins: In chapter 1, Daisy gets two of them when both Robert and Babel [[BerserkButton mistake her for a boy]].
93* TheHeart: Rai serves as this to the group. In chapter 8, when she's separated from them after the fight with [=NeoDevimon=], the group is almost immediately at each other's throats and falls apart.
94* JumpedAtTheCall: Of all the kids, Robert is the one most willing to stay in the Digital World and fight Apocalymon rather than simply return home at first.
95* {{Tomboy}}: Daisy. She has BoyishShortHair, hates wearing feminine clothing, and also mentions hating the color pink in chapter 1. Regardless, as shown when Robert and Babel do so, mistaking her for a boy is a major BerserkButton.
96[[/folder]]
97
98[[folder:Children of the Present]]
99* AbusiveParents: As revealed in chapter 26, Rumiko's father [[spoiler: wanted to sell her as a prostitute at age sixteen, but Seiko refused to let him and ran away with Rumiko and her then-boyfriend in tow]].
100* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade:
101** In canon, Osamu's death was largely a complete accident, a result of him getting hit by a car, with Ken blaming himself due to having wished Osamu would die out of anger shortly beforehand. Here, Ken reveals that ''he'' walked into the road after an argument, and Osamu died pulling him ''out'' of the road to save him. Ken even admits he believes he ''knew'' the car was coming and that the crosswalk was red, and thinks he was either DrivenToSuicide at the time, or [[SpitefulSuicide did it just so Osamu would be in trouble for once]], which only added to his guilt over Osamu's death.
102** In canon, Yoshino's backstory was largely her just feeling overshadowed by her elder sisters and suffering depression and low self-esteem as a result. Here, Yoshino accidentally left the stove on one night, causing a fire that killed her sisters. While she ''knows'' it was an accident, she sometimes doubts herself and wonders if she actually did it on purpose out of resentment towards them being better than her.
103* BagOfSpilling: Taichi's group (sans Hikari) have once again lost their ability to digivolve their partners any further than Champion by the time of ''Present''. They get them back once more during chapters 18 and 19, Takeru regaining his during the fight with Armageddemon.
104* BigWhat: The [=DATS=] team is particularly shocked that Yushima [[spoiler:has a son, Shibumi. He counters that it should've been obvious considering that he's an old man in his mid-seventies who would hate to see his bloodline end.]]
105* {{Cliffhanger}}: ''Present'' ends with the gang arriving in the Digital World and being separated upon their arrival by the Demon Lords.
106* ContinuityNod: In chapter 2, when Takato admits to Taichi that he created Guilmon, Taichi warns him of the dangers of creating Digimon, citing [[Anime/DigimonAdventure02 Kimeramon]] and [[Anime/DigimonTheMovie Diaboromon]] as examples.
107* CreepyCemetery: Chapters 18 and 19 detail Taichi's gang fighting Digimon in one. Both Mimi and Sora are unnerved by it, with Sora outright admitting that cemeteries creep her out.
108* DiscOneFinalBoss: Chapter 24 ends with the gang defeating Armageddemon, resulting in TheMasquerade being broken once and for all. Despite this, the fic isn't over yet, and the next few chapters centering on their preparations to go straight to the Digital World to take out the Demon Lords.
109* TheDreaded: PlayedForLaughs with Koji and Koichi. A RunningGag is that Izumi is convinced the two of them are somehow the spawns of Satan due to their ability to give a literal DeathGlare and "twisted" behavior. While it's easier for people to understand her seeing Koji like this, especially with how brutal he can be when dealing with stalkers, most get confused initially at her claims of [[DarkIsNotEvil Koichi]] being so with how polite and kind he is.
110* EleventhHourSuperpower: When things are getting increasingly dire during their respective fights in chapters 18 and 19 of ''Present'', Taichi's group regains their Crest power via HeroicResolve.
111* FlawedPrototype: It's revealed in ''Present'' chapter 14 that [[spoiler: Takuya, Sora, Koichi, Chika, Jian, and Hikari]] were all experimented on with prototypes of the Dark Spore, all of which were failures in some form: [[spoiler:Hikari suffered a weakened immune system, thus explaining why she was sick so much as a child, and Takuya, Sora, Koichi, and Chika only received half of the effects (Takuya and Sora excelling in sports while Chika and Koichi excelled in academics)]]. [[spoiler:Jian]] was the last test subject before Ken, and implanted with a near-perfect example of the spore, except he was able to control the spore without getting corrupted; however, when he was first experimented on with the spore, he flew into an UnstoppableRage and destroyed the facility where they were manufactured.
112* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: In chapter 18, Taichi is panicking at the sight of [=SkullGreymon=] and on the verge of giving up, believing they can't win, Sora slaps him and chews him out, refusing to give up on the world they'd strived so hard to protect. It works like a charm.
113-->'''Taichi''': What kind of leader am I? Getting a speech about having courage from somebody else.\
114'''Sora:''' And you can't even use the excuse of having your goggles on too tight anymore.
115* GoldenSuperMode: Magnamon makes a comeback during the fight with Armageddemon in chapter 24.
116* HandicappedBadass: Taichi has a bum leg from a soccer injury, but he doesn't let it stop him from being a [=DigiDestined=].
117* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Hikari dips into this slightly in chapter 5, remarking that she and the rest of Taichi's gang don't do much in helping fight in comparison to the other groups, especially since the Tamers can give their Digimon power boosts, the Warriors can ''become'' Digimon, and Masaru is a BadassNormal who [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu punches out Digimon regularly]].
118* SolomonDivorce: When their parents divorced, Risa went to live with her father, and Ruki with their mother.
119* TakeOurWordForIt: In chapter 11, Koji scares off a group of perverts who were harassing Yoshino at the beach. It's not revealed exactly what he did to do so, but it describes Hikari and Takato [[ReactionShot cringing and covering their eyes]], and after the fact, Yoshino remarks that she'd arrest him for assault if she wasn't off duty.
120* ThereAreNoCoincidences: In chapter 11, Ruki points out to Taichi that she doesn't believe in destiny, and considers it odd that even before the big meeting between all the Chosen Children groups in the park, the Tamers all met members of Taichi's group in some form (Taichi and Yamato were friends with Jian's older brother, who also attended class with Jyou, Jian's older sister was in all the same sports clubs as Sora and currently in the same class as Mimi for the second year in a row, Takeru tried to befriend Ruki while his mother tried to do an interview with hers, Koushiro became acquainted with Jian when he visited Shinjuku Junior High, and Taichi himself got a summer job at the Matsuda Bakery), pointing out that such things can't be mere coincidences. In response, Taichi states that, while he doesn't believe in destiny either, he does believe that when it's needed, some things are just meant to happen.
121[[/folder]]
122
123[[folder:Children of the Future]]
124* AnAsskickingChristmas: Several chapters are set around Christmastime.
125* TheAtoner: [[spoiler:[[Anime/DigimonDataSquad The Bio-Hybrids]] all went their separate ways after losing, but all three have their own ways of trying to change. Naomi and Ivan became agents of DATS, Naomi as a researcher and Ivan as an officer. Kouki on the other hand still had rage issues but was being looked after by the other two, and after Masaru served as his WarriorTherapist, began traveling around as his new path in life.]]
126* BackInTheSaddle: After being retired for several decades at the very least, the original [=DigiDestined=] get back on the frontlines, courtesy of {{Digital Avatar}}s that allow them to fight as if they were in their prime.
127* BigGood: The Xros Heart United Army. [[spoiler:While Shoutmon was in the Human World, [[Anime/DigimonXrosWarsTheYoungHuntersWhoLeaptThroughTime Sanzomon and Gokuwmon]] assembled Digimon from all the digital worlds to aid in the defeat of the Demon Lords, and setting up strongholds everywhere, their main one being in Kingdom Town. Among those she recruited were [[Anime/DigimonFrontier the Celestial Angels]], [[VideoGame/DigimonWorldDawnDusk Chiefs Julia, Glare, and Sayo and Koh]], and with the Chosen's arrival, the former [[Anime/DigimonAdventure residents of File Island]].]]
128* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:After being captured, Ryo, Monodramon, Shaochung, Lopmon, and Impmon are fed food that brainwashes them, the humans becoming Akumako (Partners for the Demon Lords), and Impmon digivolving to his ultimate level, Reapmon. His sister [=LadyDevimon=] says this was supposed to be a last resort, only done if they didn't cooperate willingly or couldn't be convinced.]]
129* FantasticRacism: Numerous protest groups were formed against Digimon, including the Chosen. Some even went as far as to throw stones at them, despite most only being [[WouldHurtAChild children]].
130* FeelingTheirAge: The original Chosen Children suffer this problem, being middle-aged, and Daisy mentions her hips aching. Gennai helps them get around it by creating {{Digital Avatar}}s of them when they were in their physical prime.
131* HeroWithBadPublicity: Several chapters in the human world show that numerous humans are just as terrified of the Chosen Children and their Digimon as they are the evil Digimon.
132* LivingMacguffin: [[spoiler:The Demon Lords are hunting the members of the Olympos XII[[note]][[NonIndicativeName Despite having thirteen members]] in total.[[/note]] in hopes that when they are united, the path to Mount Olympos will make itself known. Those that reach Mount Olympos can then have their desire granted. At the moment, the following Olympos XII members are known.]]
133** [[spoiler:Apollomon and Marsmon of ''[[Anime/DigimonFusion Xros Wars]]'' returned to being Koh's partners, with Marsmon later joining Taiki's Xros Loader.]]
134** [[spoiler:Dianamon and Venusmon were both Sayo's partners, however Venusmon later joined Kiriha's Xros Loader after forming an attachment with him.]]
135** [[spoiler:Nene's Partner Mervamon was approached by Minervamon and revealed to be a fragment Minervamon split from herself, with Minervamon now following Mervamon in hopes of learning just what made Mervamon want to remain with humans.]]
136** [[spoiler:[[Anime/DigimonDataSquad Merukimon]] was revived and placed under the control of the Demon Lords. He was reverted to a Digiegg by Julia and Keenan, which was actually a ploy by the Demon Lords to find Kingdom Town, though he was later defeated by Mervamon and Minervamon, and had himself purified by Junpei.]]
137** [[spoiler:Neptunemon was revealed to have been deleted long ago, his data reformatting itself in two places: as Kenta's partner Marine-Angemon, and in Kenta himself long ago. When the two biomerge however, they form an incomplete Neptunemon, so they still need to find the rest of it.]]
138** [[spoiler:Jupitermon, Ceresmon, Junomon, Bacchusmon, and Vulcanusmon are still MIA. Plutomon, the unofficial thirteenth member, is also MIA, though he is mentioned as having once taken residence in the Underworld, and was the cause of both Lucemon and Daemon's birth.]]
139* MugglesDoItBetter: Digimon are incapable of harming Voidlings; only Digisoul-using humans can. This can done either through straight up brawling (Masaru's method), or by enhancing weaponry with one's Digisoul.
140* TakeUpMySword: [[spoiler:After being revived as an unknowing servant of the Demon Lords and falling to Takato, the [[Anime/DigimonDataSquad Gallantmon]] known as Duke asked Takato and Guilmon to take his place as Royal Knight, and left him with both an X-Antibody and his Medieval form.]]
