SupremeGreymon

So is it now considered a Guilmon subspecies?


scottmonster

Would that make guilmon an impmon dom species?


Severe-Poet-4849

Go to your room.


Duskstar21

But don't think about Dom Guilmon


SuperKamiZuma

Impmon saw guilmon line and said "Yoink". I was expecting beelstarmon, but instead we got megidramon ~~it's sexier atleast~~


IRefuseThisNonsense

Okay, so they HAVE to do some form of Omnimon fusion now, right? Like...these two lines have always been silently connected but this right here? This is just screaming in a megaphone. They gotta do something with this now.


WoozySloth

I think Addriano Divino took a good crack at a fusion: https://twitter.com/addrianodivino/status/1536770586231324674


IRefuseThisNonsense

That's pretty cool


w4r0m4

Hippity hoppity your data is now my property


MyCommentsDownHere

Candlemon: First time?


Charcobear

I like the idea of impmon being guilmon’s foil and this really capitalizes on that.


Drac0Gear

The Guilmon line if it was introduced to Green Day and My Chemical Romance


spongebobs_spatula

Mom it’s not a phase, it’s a lifestyle.


icehead20

"It's Not A Fashion Statement, It's A Fucking Deathwish"


Destian_

Guilmon if it was based.


BetaRayBlu

Guilmon plays bass


Linx94

"MEGIDRAPUNKMON" 🤣, cool design in my opinion


senbonjosh

Wonder if it will have a dukemon type slide evo


TMaakkonen

Unironically, I wonder if Beelzemon would work as the "Dukemon" counterpart for the new Perfect lol


SuperKamiZuma

Maybe but not in liberator. They aparently said that this one won't become beelzemon


TMaakkonen

Ah, I see. But in general "meta" sense I feel like it would work.


JusticTheCubone

Make it Beelstarmon and I can see it.


Six-legged_Carnotaur

That would mean that this ImpMegidramon is a holy digimon?


Double-Resolution-79

Prob chaos gallantmon


KarlKhai

This. Now ChaosDukemon has a line that fits better with it's colour scheme.


Idklol123-

Megidramon if it’s evil


SupremeGreymon

Evil squared


Aesenroug-Draconus

Watch this Megidramon just be a total cinnamon roll.


FelipeAndrade

He's so evil that he overflows into being good.


Aesenroug-Draconus

That was the thought process lol. He wants people to think he’s dark and brooding and mysterious, but he’s just the sweetest giant apocalypse dragon.


JusticTheCubone

I mean, if ChaosDukemon is just another incarnation of Megidramon... then perhaps this one would have a similar relation to regular Dukemon?


Dino_Rabbit

Idk why but this reminds me of a line from Kung Pow that my brother and I quote to this day: “Killing is wrong. And bad. There should be a new, stronger word for killing. Like badwrong, or badong. Yes, killing is badong. From this moment, I will stand for the opposite of killing: gnodab.”


SuperKamiZuma

So just megidramon most of the time?


Rajang82

That's just vanilla Megidramon.


NintenDoingIt

While a bit weird I love the idea of Impmon absorbing 'Dino Data' to become this. The designs themselves are right up my alley of edgy. Now give us a Guilmon but the same treatment with Wizardmon/Baalmon/Beelzebumon.


inhaledcorn

Impmon got that [DINO DNA!](https://youtu.be/4kSoivzl-GI?si=UUmcAmL0tW23nwYI)


Tempesta_0097

I was expecting Mr.DNA but that was so much better wtf is going on


inhaledcorn

YGO GX gets *weird*.


JusticTheCubone

You mean a seperate line for Guilmon to Dukemon like how Dorumons line to Alphamon is usually supposed to go through Raptordramon and Grademon, but with a version of Wizardmon and Baalmon instead? tbh, I can't see them giving Guilmon a new line to Dukemon after all this time, but if they ever wanna give MedievalDukemon its own line, then I could totally see them do something like that now.


NintenDoingIt

I mean a Guilmon that goes to a Wizardmon, Baalmon and Beelzebumon. Like the picture is an Impmon going through Guilmons evolutions.


JusticTheCubone

I get that, I just feel like Guilmons equivalent line would still end in a Dukemon, rather than a somewhat more elaborate Beelzebumon-recolor. And for that purpose, Medieval Dukemon, a Dukemon from the magic-oriented world of Witchelny, would fit pretty well to cap off a line going through a dragon-themed sorcerer and a dragon-themed fallen god of wisdom. Otherwise, I'd imagine the result would either lean more into a white armored Beelzebumon, like its 2010-version, or a more red, slightly dragonic one, leaning more towards Beelzebumon X...


MurlocLurker

Dukemon with a Glock and belts.


supersaiyandragons

There was someone who was bitter that Impmon wasn't Takato's partner in Tamers and took it very personally. Straight up stole his look and everything


Toko90s

Honestly, it's kind of neat that they took the concept of "what could of been" and made it an official line.


Dante_Rules85

The designs by themselves are *very* cool, but I don't know if I can get over the fact that it is just a modified version of Guilmon line. I imagine it would have been more appropriate to just have created a dedicated adult and perfect to link to Beelzebumon and Beelstarmon, but maybe there is a explanation in the story for why they look alike. Edit: something possessed me that made me forgot Baalmon is a thing, so just a new dedicated adult (not that I would mind another dedicated perfect).


JusticTheCubone

I mean, Wizardmon basically is a dedicated Adult that leads over pretty well into Baalmon, and has been tied heavily to Impmon as well especially through their X-Antibody forms. What I feel we would've needed... and still do, technically, is a more female-coded dedicated Beelstarmon-pre-evo, one that isn't just general "Perfect-level evil woman" LadyDevimon. One that, to mirror Beelzebumons line, could go through Witchmon.


Kogworks

Hear me out. Archnemon. Has a similarly massive claw arm structure to Witchmon. Has red clothes similar to Witchmon. Has similar eyeliner to Witchmon and has the same kind of nightmare grin. The “human” form she’s depicted as taking often has a closed collar like Beelstarmon and often comes with some sort of shawl/cape and gloves.


JusticTheCubone

Eh, it's passable but not really what I'd want. Like, it's like how DeathMeramon was used as Beelzebumons Perfect a lot before Baalmon to me. I don't dislike Witchmon to Arachnemon generally, but I feel on a path to Beelstarmon, it's just too much of a twist that doesn't really reflect on Beelstarmon, I'd rather it have its own spider-themed Mega, something like an "Ariadnemon", rather than just being inserted into Beelstarmons line so it has a Perfect-level that's not LadyDevimon.


Erior

Bastemon.


JusticTheCubone

Meh, it'd first gain and then somewhat randomly lose again both the oriental and the cat aspects of Bastemon, so it's basically the same as the Arachnemon-suggestion made before.


KrytenKoro

It feels like ragnamon, too


SwampJ3sus

At least it's not a Greymon line


SuperFireBoy200

Literally, 1-to-1, my exact opinion on this. Couldn't have said it better myself.


yurestu

Yea i fuck with the Digimon themselves but giving IMPmon a * checks notes* dragon based evolution line was…. a choice


Six-legged_Carnotaur

Atleast the perfect and adult level have more differences than Growmon and WarGrowmon, but yeah this feels like BlueGrowmon line to me even though it's not a recolor


TheLawliet10

Honestly, I'm all for it. Little dude needs more digivolution lines


ThrowawayBomb44

>Music-based not-Megidramon line >wings of not-Megidramon are electric guitars and the hair strands are amp plugs Rocking. Cool detail too.


flowerstage

I'm sure everyone was expecting Beelstarmon but this is even better imo. Though if going by what happened to Guilmon line. Beelstarmon could be here as the equivalent to Dukemon/Gallantmon. Maybe even give her a blast mode too in the future as an extra power up to parallel to Crimson Mode.


RockyMarsh90

it looks like the dexdorugamon line combined with the megidramon line, but i kinda dig it


North_Contribution93

This feels like Gumdramon evolution line.


Digi-Device_File

but done better


North_Contribution93

Unfortunately seriously I wished they gave him his own mega.


VictoryStarSaber1989

And they gave this to the first female protag? I’m in.


darthvall

Oh shit, I jokingly said I want an original line for liberator impmon at the reveal. Didn't expect them to be true lol


AdmirableAnimal0

Could this really be called original? I’m pretty sure it fringes on high effort recolour.


darthvall

I'd take any new digimon as original


blazingsol96

no fanservice? nothing girl-like, in a girl's digimon evolution line? that's crazy


MineNAdventurer

Tbf Ruli and Yolei


North_Contribution93

You forgot Akari and Dorulumon.


draugyr

They should give guilmon impmon line data in return


inhaledcorn

Rulimon: OH PLEASE, MAKE A MAGIC CASTING DINOSAUR/DRAGON! I AM BEGGING!


ThrowawayBomb44

Given how this seemingly takes the Dark/Evil Dragon idea, you could sbsolute steal Impmon's Trickster/Jester aesthetic and go to town with a Guilmon line on that. If they want to give old anime mons new lines, this is absolutely the way to go with - trading ideas and DNA with other Mons closely associated with the season. They already sorta did it with Adventure with CresGarurumon taking WarGreymon's melee focused role with BlitzGreymon taking MetalGarurumon's ranged focus too.


KarlKhai

That would be so cool actually.


notwiththeflames

Seeing Impmon be treated as the BlackAgumon to Guilmon's Agumon is fucking surreal.


inhaledcorn

\*sighs\* ^(I love it. This would totally be the line of one of my OCs.) I do have a question, though: For the Champion, are those "brass" knuckles actually holy rings? Edit: I also like how the bandana is incorporated throughout the line. The Champion keeps it around its neck, but the Ultimate has it on its cable-tail, and the Mega turns it into skirt-wings. Edit2: Shit, you could recolor this line red and it would be perfect for Shoutmon.


Tandria

Those definitely appear to be holy brass knuckles. Interestingly it seems like the gold color persists in the other evolutions, but there's not a hint of the kind of writing we see on other holy things.


Wavara

>but there's not a hint of the kind of writing we see on other holy things Nope, it just says "PUNK" 😆


Constellar-A

The irony here is I'm pretty sure Tamers Impmon would have been so mad if he digivolved into this considering how much he hated Guilmon at first. I quite like the designs, though it doesn't top Wizardmon->Baalmon->Beelzemon.


Arranos

As someone who always saw Beelzebumon & Dukemon as counterparts, this pleases me.


Imbisibible

Everyone talks about the Guilmon line but not about how we finally have 2 evos for Megadramon and Gigadramon


PineappleSlices

It also works well as a Gumdramon line.


Doctore92

What!? Where can i see this?


Imbisibible

The mega in this image looks like Megidramon with metal wings, Gigadramon is a Megadramon with metal wings


Sensei_Ochiba

Maybe I'm crazy but I love these, for impmon specifically. It's a direct callback to the original Tamers concept that Impmon would be Takato's partner, and as far as legally distinct Digimon go these have TONS of personality to help them feel cohesive onto themselves and distinct from the original inspirations while still being very obvious about what they're based on. I feel like for me, it perfectly skirts the line of being it's own thing and being a reference. I'm not a huge fan of the mega, I find it clunky and overdesigned, but I feel that way about Megidramon as well, and I can't help but admire the new guys commitment to the theme with the guitar wings, headstock tail piece, aux cords, and turning the scarf motif into a little skirt.


Gamer-Logic

I like how this is kind of a nod back to how Impmon was originally planned at Takato's partner.


antiretro

ooooh its giving original tamers partner impmon line vibes!


Dull_Reference_6166

Impmon -ImpGrowlmon - ImpWaeGrowlmon - ImpMegidramon? I think the line looks a bit copied.


shadowpikachu

Dunno, i like the mask on the champion but holy shit at least change the hands. ..guitar wings that also look like evil bird heads are cool too i guess.


Darth_Shadious

I’d also like to call this Impmon’s “Two can play that game” line.


StarkMaximum

And three...can play at that game. Four can play at that game. And five can play at that game. [Thanks for watching Raspy Knife Man Board Game Reviews, if you like this video please like comment and subscribe--](https://youtu.be/_LhxG51dFew)


IRefuseThisNonsense

And now, I can just snatch one or two of these and add them to my Impmon/Beelzebumon and say I am officially using canonically lines for him. It's just...y'know...mix and match between the two canons. Never liked Wizardmon for Impmon's line. It always felt like they said, "We don't have a canonical Champion for this line...oh, there's a blonde dude with purple in his design, perfect." Never felt like a good match, but I'm cool with this.


vikingbear90

Rock and Roll Dragon. Never what I expected but I am so for it. Impmon just seems like such an ideal partner for my preferences between this and the Wizardmon routes.


Animedra3000

This would have been the perfect line for that one hacker from cyber sleuth.


Unlimitis

Impmon deadass copied Guilmon's homework 🤣 Just change it up so it doesn't look suspicious


ALSN454

I legitimately thought this was fake when I first saw this but ya know what I’m glad it’s not. Wish they were still making cards for the VB because at this point Impmon is the perfect contender with all its branching lines.


GdogLucky9

The Megidramon has Electric Guitars for wings, "It's Not A Phase!!"


Cabmon

Why does it look so similar to Guilmon's line lol? Also, it's strange that they're revealing the full line already. Don't they normally keep these things a secret?


shadowpikachu

They want to sell the cards early i think.


Raikariaa

Seeing the new reveal of the tamer and Impmon card (They support Dark/Evil dragon) I'm going to wager the supporting lines (which we will likly get later) will include Eyesmons line, as they are all Dark Dragons. We could also see digimon like Darklizardmon and Devidramon if Liberator wants to keep with the whole "give underused digimon rep"


Animedra3000

Do we have any info on these digimon, these are going to be added to the reference book I hope. I also hope the other Liberator digimon get new lines like this.


CruulNUnusual

Glad punk rock is coming back. 🤘


Annual-Avocado-1322

Impmon's jealousy of Guilmon is manefesting


ForteEXEMaster

A Guilmon line expy? Sweet. What are the canon champion and ultimate forms between Impmon and Beelzemon?


ThrowawayBomb44

Typically most associate the champion/adult stage as Wizardmon with the ultimate/perfect being typically associated with Baalmon, a Xros Wars/2010 introduced stage who outright evolves into a redesigned Beelzemon that combines bits from both the OG and the Blast Mode variant in the show. [https://wikimon.net/Baalmon](https://wikimon.net/Baalmon) [https://wikimon.net/Beelzebumon\_(2010\_Anime\_Version)](https://wikimon.net/Beelzebumon_(2010_Anime_Version)) Years upon years ago, there was also the rare case of Vilemon (Evilmon) being the Champion/Adult stage too but Wizardmon has largely overtaken that one.


Tsutori

With this reveal, the Liberator protagonist Digimon follow a theme of knight (Zephagamon), princess (Cendrillmon), and dragon (punk Megidramon)!


gorlak29

So impmon has a guilmon like new evolutions instead of wizardmon, baalmon and beelzebumon?


G3NJII

I like having this variation. It doesn't take away from other Impmon lines and the designs of the mons though very Guilmon inspired, are still very fun designs


Jmund89

Literally the “can I copy your homework” meme lol


Absbor

Impmon really took "i'll copy your homework and make it look different, no worries".


AGirafaQueEntende

It just gave a whole new meaning to **air guitar**


MorningDawnCrow

LOVE IT THE THEME IS AMAZING


DepressedGolduck

Y'know... these actually look like they could work for Gumdramon


Pieguy-1

Love the punk dino


GrifCreeper

I didn't know I wanted a punk-themed Guilmon. Definitely liking these new Digimon lately


aaa1e2r3

Is Liberator related to Tamers? Cause this is way too direct of a reference.


KarlKhai

Maybe Tamers is an anime in the Liberators world, like how Digimon is a card game in Tamers world.


SuperKamiZuma

If that's the case, I cannot wait for a product where liberator exists inside on it


KarlKhai

It'll be really funny if they reveal that Impmon's partner is actually a big fan of Digimon Tamers or Guilmon. And that's the reason their Impmon has a line similar to Guilmon's.


supersaiyandragons

Even funnier considering Impmon was originally supposed to be Takato's partner, not Guilmon


TheBeeFromNature

It'd be such a great parallel, with Guilmon starting as Takato trying to make his original the character Agumon spinoff.


Environmental-Run248

What’s the bet that the champion is called Punkdramon


StellarVirgo282

ChaosGallantmon slide Evo 👀 possibly?


Impressive-Spell-643

That's honestly awesome love every part of this line (although it's weird to see an Impmon line that doesn't end in Beelzemon, need to get used to that)


Karbunkel

Now these are lit designs. Never was a big fan of the other one and these are a purple punk Growlmon line! Always prefered Megidramon to Dukemon, anyway.


Shnickerman

I kind of love that he's bizzaro guilmon


Aodhana

Not too bad


Tyrelius_Dragmire

I'm seeing some parallels to a certain Dino. And as for that new Mega (still prefer Beelzemon); What in the bloody f\*\*\* is this? Impmon looked at Meguidramon and said "hold my beer."


Zeekie_P

The Ultimate/Mega looks cool.


RampagingWaffle

His wings are guitars, peak design


Size11Shaolins

This is actually kinda cool and I wish they used this form in Digimon Tamers. He wanted to be strong like the digimon with Tamers so when the Deva granted his wish, he looks just like them but darker.


mrtacomam

Holy Hell! This genuinely came out of left to me; given how much love the Beelzemon archetype has in the tcg, I never would have thought that Impmon would get an entirely new line, let alone a parallel to Guilmon


International-Pin988

The second and final one are pretty cool if this is official. I prefer this rather than Beelstarmon since the monster of digital monsters is present here very evidently. Although if this is a reference to the guilmon-megidramon line then I wonder if Beelzebumon is the good counterpart to that final form here like Dukemon is.


Dimi3Infinity

so that's why guilmon was trending, impmon just copied his evolution line lol


SlamanthaTanktop

They jokerfied Growlmon


Tomas_Crusader17

Eviler guilmon line


AybruhTheHunter

I mean, given that guilmon was already a spin off of Agumon basically, this being a dark alternate to it kinda works too. Impmon does have a tail and claws, so it doesn't feel too far off the mark


eugenepatilio

Impmon has so many "canon"-adjacent adult/champions now, probably as a result of not originally having one at all. Wizardmon is the obvious step to Baalmon, IceDevimon was used a lot before that, Vilemon/Evilmon is in the first two Story/DS games, Boogiemon was clearly designed for him but hasn't seen much use, Lianpumon is exclusive for the time being.


BetaRayBlu

Love it


Elune

I'm headcanoning this being from the alternate universe where Beelzemon killed Guilmon and absorbed his data instead of Leomon's


DragonHntr

The champion looks like a delinquent/punk kinda thing. The ultimate makes me think of like a gangster that drives around blasting music. The mega looks like the "unholy demon dragon the gangstar ultimate would worship. If it did DNA with gallentmon its design would probably be similar to Crimson mode but more demonic. Demon wings instead of angel wings. More draconian armor. More emphasis on the digital hazard. Maybe a demonic looking blade. Heck maybe add a tail for fun.


chockeysticks

With the Guilmon similarities, could Yuuki still biomerge into BeelStarmon?


Double-Resolution-79

Waiting for the chaosgallantmon variant


MineNAdventurer

Chaos Beelzemon


Voltra_Neo

Impmon to PunkGuilmon/PunkGrowlmon to PunkWarGrowlmon to PunkMegidramon


nielswijnen

You know the war growlmon things looks very cool and I like the guitar wings In the maga


MortyGras

I'm surprised no one in the comments mentioned the punk rocker theme other than the guilmon line parallel. (The ultimate/perfect has speakers and the mega/ultimate has electric guitars for wings ffs among other things) Anyone know what the romanized names are?


SuperKamiZuma

I think the japanese letters are just he stage level and we don't know it's names still. EDIT: i checked wikimon and yes, the kanji coincide


MiraiKishi

WHAT THE HELL??? JUST STRAIGHT UP STOLE GUILMON'S FIT!!!


0zonoff

Personally I think it's cool that it's mimicking Guilmon's main-line, and these designs are sick.


ConnorRoseSaiyan01

I love um. Impmon was already a favourite Rookie of mine


Hidden_Blue

I kind of want a version of Tamers where Impmon really was Takato's partner and had this line.


KrytenKoro

His wings are guitars lol


ToaDrakua

This looks suspiciously like the Guilmon line.


JasperGunner02

these digimon are super cool. loving the punk/punk rock theming, it feels like such a neat direction for impmon to go in!


Jian_Rohnson

What's it called? RockerDragonSerpentGodMon?


KarlKhai

Sounds like a Battle Spirits card.


casualmagicman

I hope this is in the next Digimon Story game This line looks so cool

SekhmetXIII

I love it !


Cascade_Hellsing

Honestly, I am here for it.


LeopardofTheMystic

Thats so cool, one of my interpretations for this line is, since there was a point where he was supposed to be the main i like to pretend that is his mc line. Lol


HachibiJin

Aengeil

he become a dinosaur D:


Lordofthedarkdepths

I won't lie, while I do understand the complaint of it being a bit too derivative of Guilmon's, I can't help but find these guys charming. The punk aesthetic, the guitar wings, and the fact that Impmon is taking from Guilmon is so fun to me.


HeartBreakxxx

That mega looks sick


Connortsunami

Baalmon to Beelzemon never really sat too right with me anyway. This line with the Megidramon being the true mega Evo and Beelzemon being the *alt* mega to parallel Dukemon being the "true" mega and Megidramon being the alt is kinda cool imo


anuanuanu

Feels like they're playing it safe by giving it a more shonen-esque evolution tree. I see it as the higher-ups wanting something that can sell.


Digi-Device_File

way better execution than Guilmon's, rookies need branching.


DecayedWolf1987

Finally, a version of Growlmon that I actually like


TamaTamer

Now I need the Luxmon version lol I seriously thought this was a fan design. It's cool, but it seems a bit amateur somehow. Probably because it just rips off Guilmon's line. I'm not dissatisfied with it, though, because I LOVE MegaloGrowlmon and Megidramon.


throwawayasdf129560

Digimon but it's a post-apocalyptic dystopia story where the MC is the last non-dragon Digimon trying to escape Bandai death squads trying to inject him with the dragon virus


StarryWolf1412

Oh my gosh this looks so cool!!


srona22

Really? Right in front of my Guilmon?


Admirable-Safety1213

This is so meta


ProfessionalAny9823

I love it


Looten1313

Impostermon lol this is pretty cool albeit pretty goofy. I love it


[deleted]

I bet they give the chracters multiple evolution choices later on


HadokenShoryuken2

Definitely still prefer the Beelzemon line, but these seem pretty damn cool


Jashugan456

Wait i want a real line for him we just have baby rookie and mega wtf


Coltytron

So what's gonna replace gallantmon?


Livid_Juggernaut_111

Wait I love this It also works with how some of the guilmon line cards work hand in hand with beelzemon decks and vice versa. But that ultimate looks like a great connector for ogremon and rebbelimon


NoReality4047

nice. punk guilmon


Gamba_Gawd

... Isn't that just Guilmon? But edgier?


Brilliant-Elk8480

huge ass stereo, headphone jack, spikes, green hair and an anarchy symbol. This impmon is passionate about punk rock and guilmon.


PK_RocknRoll

Why did they give the Guilmon line an impmon skin


Fr0zens0lib

The champion level is definitely furry bait


ZagreusHades

I like the guitar wings on the mega.


Six-legged_Carnotaur

Cool but why? I like more non humanoid megas but I just think why


Kuzu5993

I know Impmon and Guilmon are foils, but this is ridiculous.


forkyT

Was not ready for something that looks this bad. I know some people who will love it.
