Description
For a personal project to categorize the Digimon in evolution charts. All evolutions are straight lines, where the Digimon evolve through (mostly) normal means.Studies into Digimon genomes have revealed that young Digimon can undergo elemental mutations when raised in a specific biome. When doing so, the Digimon's coding is completely scrambled, resulting in completely different types of Digivolutions! These Digimon subspecies possess statistical abilities equal to those of their counterparts, yet the attacks they use and the Digivolutions they undergo are completely different.
Koromon -> SnowAgumon : when Koromon is raised in a frigid environment, meeting Agumon's evolution requirements.
Koromon -> ModokiBetamon : when Koromon is raised in a marshy or swampy environment, meeting Betamon's evolution requirements.
SnowAgumon -> Frigimon -> Mamemon -> PrinceMamemon
SnowAgumon -> Icemon -> Meteormon -> MetalEtemon
ModokiBetamon -> Yanmamon -> Brachiomon -> Cannondramon
ModokiBetamon -> MoriShellmon -> MegaKabuterimon -> HerculesKabuterimon
SnowAgumon / ModokiBetamon -> Geremon -> WaruMonzaemon -> Ghoulmon
NOTE: This is me acknowledging that Gotsumon evolves to Icemon and Meteormon too. I'm also making use of them in other Digimon's evolution lines as well. Plz no crucify me k?

I don't even know if you're still making these, so this suggestion might be for nothing, but... Have you considered switching Yanmamon and MoriShellmon? MoriShellmon might work better evolving to Brachiomon, as it's vaguely dino-like, and it's kind of connected to water (although not as much as regular Shellmon), too. Then Yanmamon would evolve to another Insect Type Digimon. They all have the same attribute, anyway.
π: 0 β©: 1
Not making them in the current format, but the project lives on, more or less =3=;Β
TBH I do agree about MoriShellmon -> Brachiomon, I think it works quite well, but at the same time there aren't a lot of Ultimate/Perfect-level bug Digimon that are really usable without overusing them. Plus, Yanmamon -> Brachiomon is one of those evos that I saw on the cards and just made sense to me for reasons I can't really explain.Β Β―\_(γ)_/Β― I guess the logic for both of those guys is the sort of 'swamp element' that they have in common (Brachiomon's locale in Digimon World 1-- I've always seen it as more of a hybrid-element guy between like water/earth/wood than pure water personally). But in any case, this whole thing is part of the reason I'm scrapping the current system, it's just too restrictive.Β In the newer version of the charts, Digimon have anywhere from 2-5 possible evos/prevos (depending on the stage of evolution, IE, Rookies have around 3-5 evos, Champions have 2 evos/prevos each, and Ultimates/Perfects and Megas have 2-3 prevos). As it relates to these guys, I haveΒ Yanmamon evolving into both Brachiomon and Jewelbeemon, and Brachiomon evolving from Yanmamon and MoriShellmon as well as Ankylomon.Β
So I guess the short answer would be yes, I have considered it. =w=

You know, I can't help but think there might be a better Digivolution line for Ghoulmon that doesn't reduce him to a junk line, though I really have no idea what that could be.
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh. Well. Haha. Didn't mean to contradict you with my response to your other comment. =w= Unintentional, I swear lol.
No yeah I hear you; honestly, Ghoulmon is pretty tough to find good pre-evolutions for. I wouldn't say that WaruMonzaemon is even the best one for him either, (he's also hard to find good evos for, incidentally) but I made the connection mainly due to that glowing yellow eye-like light in WaruMonzy's stomach, thinking the teddy puppet might be like a cocoon of sorts for Ghoulmon to emerge from. Other prevos I like for Ghoulmon include SkullSatamon (at least they have the whole fallen angel thing in common) and ExTyrannomon (for similar reasons to WaruMonzaemon), both of whom I actually prefer as Ultimate stages for Ghoulmon. It's peculiar that somehow he didn't make the cut to appear in anyone else's chart but this one... o___0 I might have actually had an oversaturation of Ghoulmon and opted to fix it, lol.
TBH this more rigid structure of Digivolution charts is one I've kind of moved past anyway in favor of more of like a web with more branching paths for all forms. I've mostly been too busy to work on/upload them, unfortunately, but this is more or less what they'll look like if I ever get around to them:Β i7.photobucket.com/albums/y299β¦
π: 0 β©: 1
That actually looks pretty good. Β Bet the others will look good too.
Also, I find it weird how at no point during your old system SkullSatamon was ever used at all, despite the fact that you have mentioned having evolutions with him in mind. Β Guess none of them ever actually came to light.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah I know what you mean, that's honestly one of the main flaws with this system of classification and definitely an oversight on my part haha. I think I was going to replace Baalmon with him in Impmon's line? Shrug.
Well who knows, maybe talking about the web charts will motivate me to get going on them. =3
π: 0 β©: 2
Actually, if SkullSatamon would have replaced Baalmon, would the line have been Impmon -> FlaWizardmon -> SkullSatamon -> Beelzemon, or would it have been different?
π: 0 β©: 1
Sounds better than what I've got now TBH. =3= After making this one and a few others I decided against using any Xros Wars/Fusion Digimon in these charts, since they don't have any of the normal characteristics/attributes of Digimon. For the purposes of these charts, I'd probably chance it, but overall no, I'm not super fond of that haha. Again, it's to do with the more rigid, archaic format.
π: 0 β©: 1
So you would have kept FlaWizardmon as Impmon's Champion form?
Also, your decision is understandable so I can see why you'd want to not use them.
π: 0 β©: 1
Ehhh maybe. FlameWizardmon is kind of weird where he's supposedly an Armor guy but then like that means there are like a million extra Digimon that evolve via the Courage Digi-egg/Digimental, so I might have headcanoned that away or something. IDK I'll have to research it a little more and get my facts straight and whatnot.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
So as it is, it'd be Impmon -> ??? -> SkullSatamon -> Beelzemon?
π: 0 β©: 1
Suppose so. Though TBH I think Impmon -> Boogeymon -> Phelesmon -> Beelzemon is the best 'official' or 'canon' evo line for him.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
That would work if Phelesmon could evolve into Beelzemon, but as it stands the only Demon Lord it can even go into is Daemon, with the other options being MaloMyotismon, Chaosdramon, Pharaohmon, and Murmukusmon.
π: 0 β©: 1
What makes you say that Phelesmon only turns into those guys? You're looking at Wikimon or DMA or something huh? Yeah I believe that line has never happened in any official materials, (though I can't imagine why) though they are the only Champion, Ultimate, and Mega Digimon that are consistently said to be related to Impmon. It seemed logical to me.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Honestly, I'd say that line along with Wizardmon -> Baalmon -> Beelzemon and Devimon -> NeoDevimon -> Beelzemon would work the best. Β The last one was also a possible line for Impmon in Pendulum Progress 2.0.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, Devimon's path to Beelzemon is also perfectly viable IMO, I think Devimon works quite well as a champion form for Impmon. The V-pets are a big part of the basis for my stuff, so I'll definitely draw on that heh. As for Baalmon though, I'm not using the guys from Xros Wars/Fusion who don't have an official type/level/etc. Too many variables that make them too inconsistent, IMO. Otherwise, Baalmon would be great.
π: 0 β©: 1
Fair enough then.
π: 0 β©: 0
I kind of hope so, because it looks like it'd work greatly.Β

Have you thought about making a line with kuramon, or fufumon?
Those two need a little love.
π: 0 β©: 1
Of course! They have pretty straightforward lines, though, so there's really not much to them... is probably why I haven't gotten around to them yet, sorry .-.' Yeah Kuramon's line is just the straight path up to Infermon, who then splits to Diaboromon and Armageddemon. For the X-Antibody families, I was going to have Dorumon go the Dorugamon and DexDorugamon paths, while Ryudamon would turn into Ginryumon of course as well as Raptordramon. Fanbeemon I actually haven't picked a good second evolution for besides Waspmon, (was planning to use Omekamon, but that's not really a great choice is it?) which might be another reason why I haven't made an X-Antibody chart... Dx
π: 0 β©: 1
Why don't you put dodomon, dorimon, fufumon, and kyokyomon apart; and then put the pendulum x version 3?
π: 0 β©: 1
You mean, having their separate lines all existing in one chart? Yeah, I was planning to do that, since the guys who come from the X-antibody babies are kinda special.Β

ModokiBetamon-Yamnamon-Brachiomon.
What?
π: 0 β©: 1
Uhhh. Eheh. Not sure how I can defend this one.Β
.....swamp DNA? Dunno. ModokiBetamon -> Yanmamon makes sense to me, Brachiomon as Modoki's Ultimate makes sense, and Yanmamon -> Brachiomon happened in the cards.Β
I wonder if it'd help if I said I was considering switching Brachiomon onto MoriShellmon's line?
π: 0 β©: 1
Eh, it doesn't really matter. It just sounds kind of...painful to turn from a fish-thing to a dragonfly to a brachiosaurus in one's lifetime.
Or maybe I just over-analyze.
Still, great job on the chart!
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm not gonna pretend the subspecies guys weren't kinda difficult... There is a reason it took me this long to upload their charts. =w= I'm also not gonna pretend that there probably aren't better things for Brachiomon to evolve from. .__. I always sort of thought it worked, but I'll keep thinking and reconsider it.
Thanks!
π: 0 β©: 1
No problem!
Just a question, when will GeoGreymon's sheet come out?
π: 0 β©: 1
Gosh man, I'm honestly not sure what to do about him. Obviously Agumon is the only real Rookie to evolve him from, but I'm not doing Savers Agumon as a separate variant (they're pretty much the same aside from the training bracers), and I can't really do for my current charts without breaking format. 0n0 Again I'll have to give it some thought and figure it out.
One thing I'm considering right now is completely rehashing the system and doing a new sort of web-chart format that will showcase more Digivolutions for all forms.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
That could sound good, but at least try to make it work with your current format. Good luck!
π: 0 β©: 0
I remember always ending up with this Goo-thing-mon.
π: 0 β©: 1
What, like in the V-pets or Digimon world or what?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah... Digimon World on PSX

Ah, you mean Numemon then. I hear that a lot about when people played that game as kids. =w= Yeah, it's surprisingly easy to get Numemon, and yet, I've never actually gotten him. 0^0; I guess that's what happens when I play the game as an adult having not played it as a kid. *shrug*
