[edit] Appearance
Gatomon appears similar to a white Egyptian kitten, with enormous tiger like paws(actually gloves given to her by Myotismon to shield her scarred paws). In the dub, she speaks in a soft, drawling voice. The Japanese version, however, has her in a much older voice to reflect her maturity as a Champion level Digimon. As Salamon, she acts more youthful like many of the Rookie level Digimon. Her name, "Gatomon," comes from "gato", which means "cat" in Spanish, Greek, Italian and Portuguese. Though she is a Champion level Digimon, she is just as big as the other Rookie level Digimon.[edit] Description
Gatomon is a main character in Digimon Adventure and Digimon Adventure 02, as well as the movies Digimon Adventure (The Movie), Our War Game!, The Golden Digimentals and Diaboromon Strikes Back.Gatomon first appeared in Digimon Adventure as a malicious Digimon working for Myotismon. As a Digi-Egg, Nyaromon had been separated from the other seven Chosen Digimon. When she later digivolved into Salamon, Myotismon took her under his wing and she receives brutal beatings whenever she scowls at him. Salamon eventually naturally Digivolved into Gatomon and became one of Myotismon's lieutenants in his army of Digimon. During this time, she gained a rival in one of his other minions, Demidevimon, as the two competed for their master's favour. Her only friend was Wizardmon, a Digimon who Gatomon had once helped and vowed to return the favor.
Gatomon accompanied Myotismon and his army in the assault on the Real World in the search of the Eighth Child, the predestined eighth member of the DigiDestined, who Myotismon was determined to destroy. Thanks to Wizardmon, Gatomon realized that she was in fact the chosen partner Digimon for the eighth member, Kari Kamiya. However, Myotismon also discovered this and captured Gatomon and used her to identify Kari. When Gatomon refused, Kari willingly gave herself up to stop the bloodshed, despite the protests of Gatomon and the other DigiDestined.
The DigiDestined and their Digimon, along with Wizardmon, fought Myotismon to save Kari. During the battle, Wizardmon sacrificed himself for Kari. Gatomon was devastated by Wizardmon's death, and Digivolved into Angewomon to fight Myotismon. By absorbing the power of the other Digimon into one of her arrows, Angewomon had apparently destroyed Myotismon. However, Myotismon's entity endured and he became VenomMyotismon. After the following battle Gatomon accompanied Kari and the other DigiDestined back to the Digital World to fight the Dark Masters.
Gatomon returned as a main character in the second Digimon season, Digimon Adventure 02. Three years had passed since the adventures of the original DigiDestined, and now, a human calling himself the Digimon Emperor was conquering the Digital World and enslaving the Digimon. Gatomon was reunited with Kari but had lost her Tail Ring while escaping a Unimon under the control of a Dark Ring. Without the Tail Ring's holy power, Gatomon's power was greatly reduced to roughly that of a Rookie level Digimon.
In the last episode of the series, Gennai returns the missing Tail Ring to Gatomon. Apparently it was found by the forces of good. Gennai explains that the Ring served as a means to contain the dark energy of the Digimon Emperor's fortress, and that its power was what allowed DNA Digivolution to take place.
Attacks
- Lightning Paw (Cat Punch): A lightning-fast punch
- Cat's Eye Hypnotism (Cat's Eye): An attack that allows Gatomon to confuse and/or paralyze the opponent.
- Tail guard : By use of her tail ring she block attacks.
[edit] Other forms
The name "Gatomon" refers to only the Champion form of this Digimon. Throughout the series, Gatomon gains the ability to Digivolve into a number of more powerful forms (each with a different name). Unlike the rest of the DigiDestined Digimon, the Champion form is the most common and preferred form for Gatomon. A higher amount of energy is required to stay in a higher form. [edit] Nyaromon The first and only time Nyaromon is seen is in Digimon Adventure, during the flashback that shows a Nyaromon, sitting in a tree, waiting for someone. This someone would be Kari, as Gatomon would later find. Attacks

[edit] SalamonSalamon redirects here. This section is about the Salamon featured in Digimon Adventure/02. For the Salamon in Digimon Frontier, see Celestial Digimon .  Strangely, Salamon's appearance and attacks are based on a dog, while her other forms are based on a cat. Attacks

[edit] Angewomon Angewomon resembles a cross between an angel and a valkyrie because of her winged helmet, and is also the female counterpart of Angemon but higher in rank because of her eight wings, which when folded resemble a cape. After Kari used the power from the Crest of Light to free the Sovereigns, Gatomon supposedly lost the power to become Angewomon; however she was able to digivolve into Angewomon to save Kari and T.K. while they battled the Digimon Emperor by the Dark Ocean (this was probably because of the positive energy released when Pegasusmon knocked down the Control Spire in the lighthouse). Three years after releasing the Sovereigns, in Digimon Adventure 02, Gatomon and the other older Digi-Destined Digimon had their powers restored by one of Azulongmon's DigiCores. This allowed Gatomon to once again assume her Ultimate form. She appears in both Digimon 02's movies, digivolving into Magnadramon, her mega form, to release the Golden Digieggs with Seraphimon, Angemon's mega form, and again with Angemon to assist Omnimon in defeating Diaboromon, in the Japanese version of the movie. Attacks

[edit] Nefertimon Gatomon first became Nefertimon on the day the Digi-Egg of Light was found. Gatomon, Kari, T.K. and Patamon had ended up in a cave after escaping some Dark-Ringed Tyrannomon. Kari managed to lift the Digi-Egg and unleashed its power, allowing Gatomon to Armor Digivolve to Nefertimon. After Ken renounced his evil persona, Nefertimon was no longer needed as Gatomon and the other older Digi-Destined Digimon had their powers restored by one of Azulongmon's DigiCores. This allowed Gatomon to once again assume her Ultimate form. Nefertimon was used as a means of transportation around the Digital World. This form resembles a winged version of the Great Sphinx. It is also the only Armor Digivolution of a Champion Level Digimon. Attacks

[edit] Silphymon It first formed when Yolei, Kari and Ken were trapped within the Dark Ocean and attacked by a Blossomon created by Arukenimon. Kari was too frightened to move but Yolei managed to snap her out of it and told her that as long they were friends, Kari was safe. At that moment, the hearts of Yolei and Kari were beating as one, causing their Digimon partners to merge. The newly formed Silphymon managed to destroy Blossomon and get everyone back into the Digital World. Silphymon eventually became essential in fighting the likes of Arukenimon, Mummymon and BlackWarGreymon. Silphymon also defeated Lady Devimon, Angewomon's rival. It should be noted that, despite Gatomon's reduced power level from losing her Tail Ring, Silphymon was still as strong as any other Ultimate level Digimon. After Silphymon de-digivolves, Gatomon returnes to Salamon. Attacks

[edit] Magnadramon Magnadramon (Japanese: Holydramon) appears in the Digimon Adventure 02 movie The Golden Digimentals. In this movie, Angewomon fights the evil Digimon Cherubimon. During the battle, Angewomon and Angemon Digivolve into their Mega forms to release the Golden Digi-Eggs. This form was never actually shown in the series. Attacks
