      Funny you mention the subject Karn EX. If you look at the old 1999 TCG Agumon can become three of the Dark Masters... Piedmon, Puppetmon, and Machinedramon. Again based off the card game anyways.

    I always thought piedmon would come from myotismon and devimon before him, kinda wrapping up adventures vilans nicely. You can even add apoclalymon on there at the end because every dark master has the potential to digivolve into him at least in cyber sleuth

      Agreed!
      The only other Rookie that makes a lot of sense in that pre 1999 Era would be Tsukaimon, the Dark Patamon alt.
      Kind of explain the fear, concer, and dark Mirror of TK's Patamon, especially since Patamon is an important part of defeating each bad guy of this line.

    It'd be honestly interesting to see a sort of "Good" version of the Dark Masters. Like what would a good Puppetmon look like or a good Piedmon. Digimon that would be in the same theme (IE a Puppet or Jester aesthetic in those two cases), but aren't evil.

    I've always liked Gigadramon as pre-evolution for Machinedramon, leaning into the more specifically metallic elements. I know it's mostly a color swap, but Megadramon always felt less metal to me and less naturally transitioning to Machinedramon. Gigadramon feels like an experimental weapon of war culminating in Machinedramon.

      @matthewkuscienko4616 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      To be fair, Gigadramon does have more metal on him than Megadramon does, specifically in his wings; it's also the reason why Megadramon is said to be the faster of the 2 while Gigadramon is more powerful

    • @metacat3106
      @metacat3106 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I don't really set a particular Digimon as the pre-evolution of Machinedramon since it's outright stated that it's a fusion of many different machine Digimon, and you can even see the parts of each one, the same way that Kimeramon is clearly a fusion of other Digimon.

    • @NeoChronoid
      @NeoChronoid ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I agree 100%. Plus there's the fact that, following that logic, Chaosdramon would be an awesome evolution for Megadramon. Think about it, it's very simmilar to Machindramon, but with organic parts and it keeps the warm color of megadramon contrasting to the cold color of Gigadramon/machinedramon. Also there's the fact that gigadramon is said an "upgraded" megadramon, while Chaosdramon is na "upgraded" Machinedramon; so the lesser sibling becomes the most advanced one after they both evolve, kind of a poetic role reversal.

    • @metacat3106
      @metacat3106 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@NeoChronoid The thing is that Chaosdramon is outright stated to be an upgraded Machinedramon, they just improved on the design. Chaosdramon does not have any organic parts, it's still entirely machine just like Machinedramon. Additionally, Gigadramon isn't an upgraded Megadramon, both were designed around the same time, it seems they just made two slightly different models to see how well they performed, one with more metal parts and one with more organic parts. Presumably this experiment was before they decided to make something completely machine considering you can see either Megadramon or Gigadramon's arm as a part of Machinedramon, they were just stepping stones in the experiment that eventually produced Chaosdramon.

    One of my favorite possible piedmon lines is demidevimon>bakemon>myotismon>piedmon. Alternatively demidevimon>wizardmon>phantomon>piedmon works nicely too and incorporates multiple digimon that serve him which is a running theme with villains in digimon. Both lines have this very halloween-like theme to them too which fits an evil clown digimon pretty well imo.

    The Piedmon evo line that you came up with that includes the former antagonists of the Original Adventure is amazing. As the line is thematic and could have lead to the chosen children of the season to discover this in a similar way to how they found out about how Gennai was there since the eight partner digimon were all still eggs.
    Maybe having it be that they see a scene of there being hundreds of Devimons in a single place and that some would become versions of Myotismon before one just becomes the Piedmon that they're facing. Of course, that could have been a bit much. But I do like the idea of Tai, Matt, TK, Kari, Sora, Joe, Izzy and Mimi just finding out this would cause them to think about their journey to save both their world and the digital world. Reflecting on it.

    @DemonRaticate ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I had a fun time talking about this with people as well. The Dark Masters are a fun 4 man team to build a DnD late game enemy set around and when talking about a hypothetical this is what we came up with for story and motivations.
    MetalSeadramon: A free spirited Swimmon who was attacked by a Ebidramon in the ocean before finding the Digi-Egg of Reliability that was enshrined underwater. Evolving into Tylomon, he fought the Ebidramon off and journeyed, eventually evolving into WaruSeadramon and MetalSeadramon in a somewhat misguided sense of justice that had him conquer the area of the Net Ocean he lived in. The party arrives to this situation and knocks some sense into him.
    Puppetmon: A Gotsumon that mindlessly worked in mines until it evolved into Golemon. As it was just a worker in his society, he had no say in what he wanted and never really had the ability to emotionally mature. As most Gotsumon ended up up worked to death and those that evolved and tried to rise up were eaten by Gogmamon who ruled the area. He eventually persevered and evolved into a Pumpmon who was incredibly playful and disruptive, causing the boss the come take care of him. An unusually strong Pumpmon that played around and managed to defeat the Gogmamon, he was heralded as a hero, but due to his lack of emotional maturity he started to enact rules that made it harder to live and the area he ruled became a place where only his fun mattered. After evolving to Puppetmon, this became worse and worse until the party arrived.
    Machinedramon: A Purple Elecmon that lived in a small peaceful village. When the village was attacked by bandits, he took charge and evolved into Tuskmon. Due to the fact that even after they drove away the small bandit squad, the leader, a Megadramon appeared and wrecked havoc, killing most of the Adult level digimon. After pillaging the village only a few young In Training Digimon and Rookies survived. Tuskmon became their protector and they attempted to make a life for themselves elsewhere. Due to a set of unfortunate circumstances where they wandered into a Wild Digimon's territory, an In Training was killed, leading to a Dark Evolution into Gigadramon. Slowly losing his humanity, the Gigadramon became obsessed with protecting the small group. The Megadramon bandit leader eventually saw the group as a threat and attacked again, leading to a further dark evolution into Machinedramon. The rampaging, soul-less beast eliminated the bandits, but also lost any sense of self with the only programming being "Protect the young". It isn't until one is able to sneak away and ask for help that the party meets them.
    Piedmon: A Muchomon that lived in a circus, preforming tricks and learning acrobatics, hoping to evolve into a form where it could contribute more. He eventually evolved into Saberdramon and due to its new body, never was able to utilize the tricks he learned as a Muchomon. As such he spiraled into depression, shunning people and pushing his old friends away. He grew bitter, jealous and eventually left the circus in a fit of rage. Unfortunately, burning all his bridges did not help him at all and he eventually learned how harsh the world was without a support network to assist him. Doing odd jobs, mercenary work and such, he never excelled at much and always blamed his situation on everyone else. He eventually discovered a talent he had, murder. He grew delighted, using his ability to fly nearly invisibly at night to catch targets unaware and slowly burn them alive with his flames after using his Black Saber attack to cripple them. It got worse and worse over time and after he evolved into Jokermon, he got REALLY good at it. Waltzing into battles and leaving no one alive. After evolving into Piedmon, he decides to target his old stomping grounds, the circus, where he would meet the party.

    Ganimon, Seadramon, Mega Seadramon and Metal Seadramon.
    Mushmon, Woodmon, Jyureimon and Pinochimon.
    Hagurumon, Mechanorimon, Megadramon and Mugendramon.
    Pico Devimon, Bakemon, Fantomon and Piemon.

    I remember there being this old line of Digimon candy that had holographic stickers on the sides of the package, which showed digimon evolving into their higher forms. One of them was Devimon and Piedmon, which suits this video's theory well.
    Though personally I have always loved the fact that we have what is essentially a Dark Digimon partner line throughout the OG Adventure. DemiDevimon, Devimon, Myotismon, and VenomMyotismon. I know Piedmon could be considered the true Mega and VenomMyotismon kind of like a SkullGreymon situation, but I just find VenomMyotismon to be the perfect amalgamation of its previous forms.
    Imagine the twist if it had turned out that the partner of the 8th child, was actually Myotismon. Myotismon wanting to find them so adamantly would have been the perfect foreshadowing, and we would have gotten a more varied team instead of two Angels.

    Somewhat related to this but what would be the NEXT step for the Dark Masters? What new digivolution could they have if some evil digimon decided to further upgrade the Dark Masters? Personally I'm thinking about the most logical steps, those who are made to be some sort of digivolution of these villains and so:
    - Metalseadramon turning into GigaSeadramon;
    - Machinedramon turning into Chaosdramon;
    -Piedmon turning into Voltaboutamon;
    The hardest to pick for is however Puppetmon, the only one that I can think off, to keep the wood theme is AncientTroiamon and I don't know, wish there was a better candidate for him...

  • @golisobro5296
    @golisobro5296 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    8:32 a video where the other dark masters get a Voultboutmon like Digivolution would be really cool and I’d love to see it. The only problem i see with it would be that Piedmon isn’t the only dark master with a DNA Digivolution and that Machinedramon also has one, by fusing with Chimeramon to become Millenniamon. Though I like the detail that both of these fusion consists of a mega and an ultimate level, and that they’re all digimon that were major villains in the anime. On that note I think that Etemon, Mummymon and Arukenimon would be fantastic candidates to fuse with the other 2 dark masters, since they’re prominent villains in the early seasons of the anime and they’re all ultimate level digimon.

    • @caiusdrakegaming8087
      @caiusdrakegaming8087 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think Milleniamon wouldn't be Machinedramon's version of Boltboutamon. With Piedmon it is himself as his Ultimate form fusing, so the other Dark Masters would likely have their Ultimate form fusing with them to make their version of Boltboutamon. Puppetmon and Cherrymon, Machinedramon and Megadramon/Gigadramon, and Metalseadramon and Megaseadramon.

So for his true Boltboutamon equivalent, Mchinedramon would have to do a jogress with his own true Ultimate stage.

The same with Taichi's botched chou shinka in the case of skull.
