HOPE YOU ENJOYED THIS ONE, NOTIFICATION LEGENDS! if you wanna see all my videos early and support a custom art follow up you could become a member, would be pretty chill of you tbh: www.youtube.com/@karn_ex/join
Im not a fan of Xross Wars but I appreciate what it tried to do. The ending was sick though seeing everyone come back. I personally love that you went with Lilith Mutant. Imagine the implications of a main cast member having to deal with their partner digivolving into a version of one of their enemies. It's genius
A fun future Xros Wars custom art video could be what if Shoutmon's army pals and Greymon's army pals were swapped. So Greymon gets Ballistamon and Dorulumon, while shoutmon gets Mailbirdamon and Deckerdramon.
For AlturBallistamon I think Justimon could work since it has the red and blue carried over, Justimon's arm carries over machine aspects, and since bugs are associated with Kamen Rider it can work for the Kamen Rider inspired Digimon.
It does strike as a bit odd that Justimon isn't bug-themed like the also Kamen Rider inspired Stingmon, Shadramon, Jewlbeemon, Hudiemon and TigerVespamon (and possibly Banchou Stingmon but that one's a bit looser and only even is considered because of base Singmon's design being part of its design). I mean Riderman was one of the several grashopper kamen riders from the Showa era. There's also other digimon that look like generic toku heroes like five of the human spirit digimon, Sakuyamon, Kuzuhamon, Gankoomon and Beelzemon (who even has both a mask and a motorcycle in spite of looking more like a biker gang type than a kamen rider lol) but Justimon was clearly based on Riderman, there's definitely no doubt about it.
It's amazing how so many Xros Wars Digimon got stuck with super weird levels. It seems like there's at least one anytime any of them are mentioned in a video.
It still bugs me how Dark Knightmon isn't a mega despite how powerful he was in Xros Wars. ITs like they didn't want to make up an ultimate form for him so went the lazy route.
I never get tired of these videos. Growing up Digimon felt so all over the place, but channels like this help me relive my childhood obsession and learn more about it in a more creative way!! Keep it up Karn!! 💚
It's awesome to give Xros Wars some love! The season was great, I enjoyed it. Good picks for full evos lines. I also see VictoryGreymon as a solid Mega for Shoutmon. Omega Shoutmon gets its power from Omnimon, so a Greymon variant seems appropriate and VictoryGreymon is visually a good fusion of both Shoutmon and OmegaShoutmond visually. And the V imagery on Shoutmon's design nicely translates into the V for VictoryGreymon.
I think it’s cool you went down the plant route for Ren’s Dracmon. I always saw the focus being more based on the mask. While they are newer releases, maybe Xingtianmon and Dijiangmon could work as evolutions?
I’m not even that big of a Xros Wars fan but I’m kinda happy it’s finally getting some recognition I also always assume Sparrowmon is a champion, no matter how many times I get told it’s a rookie
@@nellewoodruff6337 yeah, it's so freaking dumb, sparrowmon and raptor sparrowmon feel champ and ulti to me while ballistamon and atlur ballistamon feel rookie and champ to me
Sparrowmon to me looks and feels like a rookie Digimon especially with how goofy and kind of childish it was in the anime, it felt like a rookie partner for Nene specifically but then again Gatomon is a champion but looks like it could be a rookie. Ballistamon I could see either way as rookie or champion too.
I always thought Dorulumon, its evolution, and a hypothetical Mega would work as the Wrathful route evolutions in a Digimon Survive sequel where the main lead has Terriermon for a partner.
I assumed Omnishoutmon WAS the mega form, due to its individual power and because it's on par with ZekeGreymon who digivolved from MetalGreymon specifically.
@@Karn_EXyeah and it suppose to be Shoutmon Future Form also we have Shoutmon King who I thought would be the actual Ultimate form as it was on a power equivalent to Shoutmon x3-x4
I get that it's a wierd pick but I've always somewhat liked the idea that sparrowmons mega should be Aegisdramon. They look similar with their golden colours as well as the engine/wings they both have
An alternate Megas for Shoutmon are Examon (good evoluton) and Dorbickmon (Dark evolution) since they're both kings in a way with Examon being king of the dramons and Dorbickmon being the dramon army commander and Shoutmon wants to be a king. Examon is when Shoutmon is a good and just king and Dorbickmon is when he is a Tyrant. For Cutemon his alternate Mega could be either Lunamon or Cherubimon since they both look like rabbits.
I like the Digimon crossover stuff. Something I think could be fun to see would be two different approaches to the Zoids franchise. First off, deciding Digimon partners for Zoid pilots/warriors; secondly, Digimon based on Zoids, and fits great with the fact that Zoids are operated by a number of advanced computer system, and quite a few even have artificial intelligence units to operate them and give them a bit of their own personality.
BTW, i am really happy you talked about Xros Wars, i think this is the first time you talk about it, i hope you talk more about this season in the future.
wow, so good to see these possible digivolutions from xros wars, mainly because it's the season I'm thinking about the most these days, and it's so cool to see even the secondary characters too, especially those from digimon hunters which is my favorite🤩
Glad to see you are finally tackling xros wars. I am hoping you will make a custom art video of this concept like you did with frontiers missing spirit evolutions.
How Xross Wars handled evolutions and levels is my main gripe with the series. The manga was a major improvement over the anime though and having full evolutions for Ballistamon and Sparrowmon would rule.
I get such a rush when Karn agrees with my headcanon digivolution lines lmao it feels so validating (ex: Dorulumon’s in this vid or Sangomon’s in the “modern partners for Survive)
As always, this was a fun video Karn. Xros Wars wasn't a season I watched before (because I was deployed), so I'm curious to see any content about it. I'll start watching in once I finish Data Squad.
@@Karn_EXalso karn I'm surprised for Gumdramon you didn't bother to mention Magnakidmon of the three musketeer Digimon it would also fit Gumdramon persona as the Wild Child of the digital world but the two choices or Dynsmon and Dorugamon are awesome dragon warriors fitting with the protagonist having dragon warrior Digimon megas
13:30 I was tossing around some hypothetical Digidestined and their partners all month and one of the picks I settled on was a Cutemon that eventually evolved into a LordKnightmon! Great minds!
Seeing more Xros Wars content is quite nice. For evolutions, another two candidates for Dorulumon in regards to preevolution that could work are Herissmon and Gatchmon, the former with its standard evos having drills, namely in Stiffilmon and the latter with the ambiguous cat/dog appearance in the media , despite Dorulumon being a wolf.
For Ballistamon’s mega I just go with Omedamon the medabots mega and say maybe he has some medabot data in him because he’s also a robot beetle like the two main medabots if you need some kind of logic to it. Also I like these kind of videos over custom art ones because it’s interesting trying to figure out how to take what is already given and make the most out of it in interesting ways and many of these ideas I didn’t think of before like Mailbirdramon to Cargodramon. Custom art videos are good too, especially for new digimon ideas, but these kind of videos satisfy some part of my brain a lot more for some reason.
As a person who doesn't love Xros Wars this was a fun video.I will always give this season credit that it's regular formed Digimon partners I.E Shoutmon, Cutemon, Dorulamon, Ballistamon, Spademon, Sparrowmon and so on are great looking Digimon. Like some of my favorites so I would love to see a custom art video for them! Also glad someone else did the idea of Cutemon maybe one day becoming Lordknightmon. I know when I do a lot of my Pink Pretty Cure Ideas for partners Cutemon is my favorite pic for a rookie. Unless the character is Plant Based then Lalamon is perfect.
Awesome video Karn!!! Agree, in my opinion Kodokuwamon fits perfectly as a Rookie level for Balistamon. And for mega level i think GrandisKuwagamon would be epic, like a BugTerminator Digimon or something like that jajaja
Before Shoutmon (King ver.) was confirmed as an Adult, I always liked Red V-dramon for the slot of Shoutmon's Adult. They're very visually cohesive, red humanoid dragons with V-shaped horns, and games have used that line. I didn't think of Durandamon as the Ultimate but honestly I'm shocked at how well it follows OmegaShoutmon, both being golden edgy Digimon with sword legs. For Cho-Hakkaimon, I like LovelyAngemon as the Ultimate more, as a fallen angel regaining her place. I never thought of Pillomon for the Child but that actually works pretty well, and it stops you from cross-contaminating with the million of Tailmon lines that already exist (plus Tailmon Child is a weird thing in and of itself). For Psychemon, while I get using the typical Belphemon line, I think a logical Adult could be Gururumon too. And for the Ultimate, Quartzmon is technically the canon one. I can't believe there's no good choice for a Ballistamon Ultimate. This series loves turning anything into robots, how the hell is there no robot bug Ultimate? Hell, it'd be a completely logical upgrade from Cannonbeemon, far more than the very unfitting (if still extremely cool) TigerVespamon.
Would love a custom art vid! Also, I actually really like Spadamon into rinkmon kind of a weird pick but really does fit and yeah we NEED more bug digimon
For Spadamon, I think I like: Spadamon > Leomon > Lamortmon > Armamon While Leomon and Lamortmon aren't Legend Arms Digimon, they are lion/beast like Digimon that have swords, and there's a lot of visual cohesion there imo. The wings of Lamortmon can also transition nicely to Armamon.
Xros Wars has always had a special place in my heart (and getting this after a rough day was just great). ...not gonna lie when I say hearing some of these levels drove me up a wall. Sparrowmon looks more like an Ultimate to me and I just imagined it being a Patamon ultimate before this level stuff. Never knew Shoutmon's other form from part three was a Champion. I know they made OmegaShoutmon into an Ultimate (thank you ReArise), but just never knew that bit.
As someone whose first Digimon anime was XROS, I'm very happy with this video. I know that it's a somewhat controversial series within the fandom but it has a special place in my heart.
Well if there's so much to cover with Xros Wars, I do hope you get to it! It's an odd duck of a season, but I think that leaves a lot of room for creativity.
I am always down for more xros wars! I'm super surprised you went over the kids that only showed up only once mostly in the background. I didn't even remember they existed lol
I enjoy that pick of Lordknightmon since its got those little wing things on the helmet that kinda remind me of Rabbit Ears, especially in the photo of it with the rose.
Another prodigious video Karn! Hope you do a custom art video for this soon also thank to you I've finally got my vital bracelet BE. Keep up the great work
DORUGORAMON MENTIONED LETS GOOO also I would suggest gundramon as a gumdramon evo because you just need to swap one letter lol but I enjoy the arrestdramon to magnakidmon evo that the vb used because it keeps the weapon theme of gumdramon but dorugoramon does work design wise the best
Awesome video Karn! If I can one more for this though, we of course don’t want to forget ChibiPickmon > Pickmon > Starmon (Rookie) > ShootingStarmon… and for an ultimate? SuperStarmon could work, but what about DarkSuperStarmon > Gankoomon?
I think Junkmon > Machmon > Locomon > GrandLocomon works pretty well Armamon as Spadamon’s Mega is works great and also I don’t care what anyone says, Tuwarmon and Arresterdramon are Ultimates and DarkKnightmon is a Mega Level to me Also an artist called NeoArchAngemon has made some great DigiEvo OC for The Xros War/Fusion Digimons
Xros Wars did some interesting things and introduced some awesome new mons like Dark Knightmon, Tactimon, and Shoutmon at a time when the franchise was kinda at a low point. I would love to see some of these be revisited in a more traditional adventure style series.
amazing video. I have only seen a bit of Xross Wars but liked the Megazord comparison, I would love to see more content like custom art for a traditional evolution or what if the other seasons had Xross Wars forms. Heck agumon X8 (the original Digimon) and Veemon X4 (02 Digimon) could even combine. since it is Christmas will we get to see another Christmas/ toy advert episode?
I remember having some thoughts on if the other cross wars partners were the "base" for the digi-cross evolution. Kinda like how exveemon and stingmon make both paildramon and dinobeemon, ballistamon and shoutmon could possibly make ballistamon X2 instead of shoutmon X2. Not sure how much it'd change, but it'd definitely show more as you went up the evolution line to X3, 4, and so on.
These chooses are good and I personally like the idea of Gabumon being Dorulgamon rookie as Gabumon’s Yellow horn leaves him in the Garuramon line so this line he keeps his Horn.
With so many gold i'm surprised you didnt use the Austin Powers Goldmember clip "Gold Gold" Anyways, it was a great video. I didn't watch Xross Wars beyond some funny clips, but i really like your evolution line ideas
Xros Wars has my favorite designs in Digimon, so seeing them get some love is nice. I've kinda fallen into the niche of designing DigiXroses, and I'm always encouraging other people to give it a try, so I'd really get a kick out of a video about new DigiXroses because I'd love to see other peoples' takes on the idea.
I'm actually a pretty big Xros Wars fan (it was the season that got me back into digimon believe it or not lol) and I think you did really good with these picks! Hoping for a custom art video tho, at least for the main characters!
Yeah DX works as Shoutmon's main ultimate, the card game and a couple of games seem to go with that too. I remember reading a pretty good theory for Arresterdramon's line being related to Bagramon, at least based on some descriptions for Gundramon. Could work him as a possible candidate for Ultimate with the Brave Snatcher connection as well. I still like to think the SM with Brave Snatcher should could count as one though, weird decision to not do it. For me is weird how Darkknightmon became a perfect, and yet so much material and lore has him keep up with ultimate's and such and later receives an X-Antibody form that work as an ultimate for him, is like the weren't satisfied with that choice.
As a Xros Wars fan, I would love to see more from this this underrated series. For Shoutmon, I can kind of see Shoutmon to RedVeedramon (from Next Order) to Wargrowlmon and then Examon for a red dragon theme although Wargrowlmon I'm not as satisfied since it's part of Takoto's Guilmon. But RedVeedramon has been used a lot less and Examon being a big dragon and Shoutmon's mic being turned into Examon's blade weapon is a nice touch even if it's a stretch.
happy to see a XW video, good job. Armamon being a legend arms digimon and having visual elements of Spadamon is intentional. in that jp only xros wars game, Spadamons data is used to create Armamon.
8:50 Well not on her own but with the other Journey to the West digimon she becomes -Buddhamon- Shakamon. Honestly given the way the story ends, it would actually make sense for her to be able to become Shakamon on her own though, even if they only ascened to arhats and not buddhas and Zhu Bajie didn't actually ascend at all.
Interesting choices and some of them are logical. I don't really like Xros wars, but Xros wars manga was epic. Fun idea - evolution lines for Warrior Ten/Ten Legendary Warriors without human and beast spirits.

Could have been fun seeing the canon fusion but with the ultimate you thought about
Karn, im late.
Check this Clockmon Evo
Clockmon > Valvemon> Apocolymon
Im not a fan of Xross Wars but I appreciate what it tried to do. The ending was sick though seeing everyone come back. I personally love that you went with Lilith Mutant. Imagine the implications of a main cast member having to deal with their partner digivolving into a version of one of their enemies. It's genius

For AlturBallistamon I think Justimon could work since it has the red and blue carried over, Justimon's arm carries over machine aspects, and since bugs are associated with Kamen Rider it can work for the Kamen Rider inspired Digimon.
That's an interesting idea, I like it! Maybe not what I'd go with but a great contender!
It does strike as a bit odd that Justimon isn't bug-themed like the also Kamen Rider inspired Stingmon, Shadramon, Jewlbeemon, Hudiemon and TigerVespamon (and possibly Banchou Stingmon but that one's a bit looser and only even is considered because of base Singmon's design being part of its design).
I mean Riderman was one of the several grashopper kamen riders from the Showa era.

It's amazing how so many Xros Wars Digimon got stuck with super weird levels. It seems like there's at least one anytime any of them are mentioned in a video.
Haha yeah I might make a video that's just "Xros Wars Digimon Are The WRONG Level"
@@Karn_EXyes pls. I wanna know how much they manages to screw it up
I think it makes the most sense to just put them all as "Xros Level" and have them slot into lines wherever they make sense.
@@Karn_EX Please do.
It still bugs me how Dark Knightmon isn't a mega despite how powerful he was in Xros Wars. ITs like they didn't want to make up an ultimate form for him so went the lazy route.
I always though SlashAngemon would've been the PERFECT Mega for Spadamon. Both blue with blades.
Nice pick!
I never get tired of these videos. Growing up Digimon felt so all over the place, but channels like this help me relive my childhood obsession and learn more about it in a more creative way!! Keep it up Karn!! 💚
Wow, that's a wonderful compliment, thank you so much! Really glad my channel can help you in some way!
@@Karn_EX
Huh, pity you _probably_ cannot use ai art, but *good news for them* if so.
Karn...
Making A Digimon Xros Wars video???
It's been three thousand years
FINALLY
Haha we move!
It's awesome to give Xros Wars some love! The season was great, I enjoyed it. Good picks for full evos lines. I also see VictoryGreymon as a solid Mega for Shoutmon. Omega Shoutmon gets its power from Omnimon, so a Greymon variant seems appropriate and VictoryGreymon is visually a good fusion of both Shoutmon and OmegaShoutmond visually. And the V imagery on Shoutmon's design nicely translates into the V for VictoryGreymon.
I think it’s cool you went down the plant route for Ren’s Dracmon.
I always saw the focus being more based on the mask. While they are newer releases, maybe Xingtianmon and Dijiangmon could work as evolutions?
Oooh interesting, I do like that!
I’m not even that big of a Xros Wars fan but I’m kinda happy it’s finally getting some recognition
I also always assume Sparrowmon is a champion, no matter how many times I get told it’s a rookie
ITS A ROOKIE!?!? WHY IS SPARROWMON A ROOKIE BUT BALLISTAMON IS A CHAMPION THAT SHOULD BE SWITCHED
@@Jade_Bunbun Really?! That's so weird
@@nellewoodruff6337 yeah, it's so freaking dumb, sparrowmon and raptor sparrowmon feel champ and ulti to me while ballistamon and atlur ballistamon feel rookie and champ to me
Sparrowmon to me looks and feels like a rookie Digimon especially with how goofy and kind of childish it was in the anime, it felt like a rookie partner for Nene specifically but then again Gatomon is a champion but looks like it could be a rookie. Ballistamon I could see either way as rookie or champion too.
@@animeguy1101 that's a pretty fair idea, I always forget sparrowmon isn't all that big
I’d like to think I was responsible for the chuuchuumon part of this video 😎😂 I don’t actually know but it was something I requested 😂 11:26
As much as I like season specific evolution gimmicks, I would like to see more through lines like this. Same logic goes for 02
Agreed!
I always thought Dorulumon, its evolution, and a hypothetical Mega would work as the Wrathful route evolutions in a Digimon Survive sequel where the main lead has Terriermon for a partner.
Oooh fun
I assumed Omnishoutmon WAS the mega form, due to its individual power and because it's on par with ZekeGreymon who digivolved from MetalGreymon specifically.
Right?! Reference Book made it a Perfect tho, how bizarre
@@Karn_EXyeah and it suppose to be Shoutmon Future Form also we have Shoutmon King who I thought would be the actual Ultimate form as it was on a power equivalent to Shoutmon x3-x4
I get that it's a wierd pick but I've always somewhat liked the idea that sparrowmons mega should be Aegisdramon. They look similar with their golden colours as well as the engine/wings they both have
That's fun
Jetmon -> Sparrowmon -> Raptorsparrowmon -> Aegisdramon is my ideal line
An alternate Megas for Shoutmon are Examon (good evoluton) and Dorbickmon (Dark evolution) since they're both kings in a way with Examon being king of the dramons and Dorbickmon being the dramon army commander and Shoutmon wants to be a king. Examon is when Shoutmon is a good and just king and Dorbickmon is when he is a Tyrant.
For Cutemon his alternate Mega could be either Lunamon or Cherubimon since they both look like rabbits.
I am happy. My boi Shoutmon (and Dorulumon) are have the spotlight again!
I like the Digimon crossover stuff. Something I think could be fun to see would be two different approaches to the Zoids franchise.

I think Raisenmon would also be a really good fit on that dorulumon line
BTW, i am really happy you talked about Xros Wars, i think this is the first time you talk about it, i hope you talk more about this season in the future.
You are INSPIRED for that Cutemon line honestly
Thank you!
wow, so good to see these possible digivolutions from xros wars, mainly because it's the season I'm thinking about the most these days, and it's so cool to see even the secondary characters too, especially those from digimon hunters which is my favorite🤩
Glad to see you are finally tackling xros wars. I am hoping you will make a custom art video of this concept like you did with frontiers missing spirit evolutions.
not gonna lie, i appreciate that you chose plutomon for a line mega. been saying forever that we need more support for Pluto in the DCG
Love Xros Wars and these lines are great, I think you have a very good sense for putting Digimon lines together. Excited to see more XW content :D
Thanks a ton!
Xros Wars hits me right in my pet peeve of non-standard digivolution levels, so you're redeeming that aspect of it for me xD
Haha nice
How Xross Wars handled evolutions and levels is my main gripe with the series. The manga was a major improvement over the anime though and having full evolutions for Ballistamon and Sparrowmon would rule.

Nice, love that!
As a ballistamon stan, this makes me very happy, thanks again for the awesome video, Karn!
I'm really glad to hear that, thanks for watching!
I love Mailbirdramon so much so any attention to it makes my day :)
KarnEX made a Xros Wars video ??
No way !!!!
I can't believe it
Could this be a christmas miracle ?
Happy holidays lol
This was the first Digimon Series I watched, so I’m glad this video was made
Nice!
Seeing more Xros Wars content is quite nice. For evolutions, another two candidates for Dorulumon in regards to preevolution that could work are Herissmon and Gatchmon, the former with its standard evos having drills, namely in Stiffilmon and the latter with the ambiguous cat/dog appearance in the media , despite Dorulumon being a wolf.
I never watched Xros Wars outside of the Crossover special so I'm excited to go into this blind and see how you would do it
Ooh let's go!
Once again this is surely an interesting explanation of what would have been if we had actually seen more actual Digievolutions in Digimon Fusion.
For Ballistamon’s mega I just go with Omedamon the medabots mega and say maybe he has some medabot data in him because he’s also a robot beetle like the two main medabots if you need some kind of logic to it.
Also I like these kind of videos over custom art ones because it’s interesting trying to figure out how to take what is already given and make the most out of it in interesting ways and many of these ideas I didn’t think of before like Mailbirdramon to Cargodramon. Custom art videos are good too, especially for new digimon ideas, but these kind of videos satisfy some part of my brain a lot more for some reason.
Fusing Digimon provides nearly endless possibilities, so I'd love to see more Xros Wars content!
As a person who doesn't love Xros Wars this was a fun video.I will always give this season credit that it's regular formed Digimon partners I.E Shoutmon, Cutemon, Dorulamon, Ballistamon, Spademon, Sparrowmon and so on are great looking Digimon. Like some of my favorites so I would love to see a custom art video for them! Also glad someone else did the idea of Cutemon maybe one day becoming Lordknightmon. I know when I do a lot of my Pink Pretty Cure Ideas for partners Cutemon is my favorite pic for a rookie. Unless the character is Plant Based then Lalamon is perfect.
As someone who hasn't seen Xros Wars I do find this a pretty interesting video idea.
Awesome video Karn!!! Agree, in my opinion Kodokuwamon fits perfectly as a Rookie level for Balistamon. And for mega level i think GrandisKuwagamon would be epic, like a BugTerminator Digimon or something like that jajaja
as a long time watcher I must now subscribe since my son, Gumdramon, gets some love
A Xros Wars video? I must be dreaming. (Xros Wars is the one I watched when I was younger so it holds a special place in my heart)
This is easily one of my favorite videos youve made. I love xros wars.
I hope we can get custom evolution lines in the future
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love xross wars and hunters
Though there are somethings that make it understandable about why its not well liked by others
Before Shoutmon (King ver.) was confirmed as an Adult, I always liked Red V-dramon for the slot of Shoutmon's Adult. They're very visually cohesive, red humanoid dragons with V-shaped horns, and games have used that line. I didn't think of Durandamon as the Ultimate but honestly I'm shocked at how well it follows OmegaShoutmon, both being golden edgy Digimon with sword legs.
For Cho-Hakkaimon, I like LovelyAngemon as the Ultimate more, as a fallen angel regaining her place. I never thought of Pillomon for the Child but that actually works pretty well, and it stops you from cross-contaminating with the million of Tailmon lines that already exist (plus Tailmon Child is a weird thing in and of itself).
For Psychemon, while I get using the typical Belphemon line, I think a logical Adult could be Gururumon too. And for the Ultimate, Quartzmon is technically the canon one.
I can't believe there's no good choice for a Ballistamon Ultimate. This series loves turning anything into robots, how the hell is there no robot bug Ultimate? Hell, it'd be a completely logical upgrade from Cannonbeemon, far more than the very unfitting (if still extremely cool) TigerVespamon.
Yay more Xros Wars content!! Digimon Fusion was what got me into the franchise so it's always a treat when you cover it!
Amazing, love to hear that!
Would love a custom art vid! Also, I actually really like Spadamon into rinkmon kind of a weird pick but really does fit and yeah we NEED more bug digimon
Glad you like them! Def wanna explore the custom art!
This is now one of my favourite videos
Happy Sunday Karn EX!
I really do love how every Digimon season has it's own Evolution gimmick.
For Spadamon, I think I like:
Spadamon > Leomon > Lamortmon > Armamon
While Leomon and Lamortmon aren't Legend Arms Digimon, they are lion/beast like Digimon that have swords, and there's a lot of visual cohesion there imo. The wings of Lamortmon can also transition nicely to Armamon.
That's fun, I like it!
Yay, Fusion is one of my favorite Digimon shows, still hurts the season 3 wasn't dubbed.
For Spadamon, i always imagined him evolving into Leomon, then into Grapleo and then into Leopardmon.
Solid job on the digivolution lines. Would love to see what else you can come up with regarding the Xros Digimon.
Xros s3 has Locomon partner? Nice! I love the train digimon so much, they're super underrated to me.
Sure is!
Finally karn's making a video about my boys
Another great video can't wait for the next one and yes I would love to see more crosswars.
Xros Wars has always had a special place in my heart (and getting this after a rough day was just great). ...not gonna lie when I say hearing some of these levels drove me up a wall. Sparrowmon looks more like an Ultimate to me and I just imagined it being a Patamon ultimate before this level stuff.
Never knew Shoutmon's other form from part three was a Champion. I know they made OmegaShoutmon into an Ultimate (thank you ReArise), but just never knew that bit.
In the TCG, they released a Dobermon alongside Ryoma, Psyche and Asta.
Thank you, thank you TTHAANK YOUUU! The video I have expected all my lifeee!!!
Ayyyy, my pleasure!
As someone whose first Digimon anime was XROS, I'm very happy with this video. I know that it's a somewhat controversial series within the fandom but it has a special place in my heart.
I’ve been waiting for this one! Loved it!!!
Thank you!
Well if there's so much to cover with Xros Wars, I do hope you get to it! It's an odd duck of a season, but I think that leaves a lot of room for creativity.
I hope so too!
Possum to pig to fox lady
Its digimon
- karn EX
Perfectly sums up digimon digivolution
Cross wars is what got me into digimon again lol
I am always down for more xros wars! I'm super surprised you went over the kids that only showed up only once mostly in the background. I didn't even remember they existed lol
Due dilligence goes brrrrrrrrr hahah thanks bud!
Heck yeah! Have a merry Karnismus!
Thanks, you too!
I enjoy that pick of Lordknightmon since its got those little wing things on the helmet that kinda remind me of Rabbit Ears, especially in the photo of it with the rose.
I hope we get more xros wars in the future because this video was great.
Thank you!
I really like the Shoutmon DX design being one of my favorite along with Omnishoutmon I even made a deck around the Red Omnishoutmon
These types of videos are my favorite! I hope to see one for the Frontier Digimon someday!
Another prodigious video Karn! Hope you do a custom art video for this soon also thank to you I've finally got my vital bracelet BE. Keep up the great work
Fantastic! Thanks so much!
Perfecto. My favorite season
As much as I love costume arts , also love seeing this type of vid back ! Lol
Really glad to hear that, thank you!
As a xros wars fan I am grateful!
Appreciate ya!
DORUGORAMON MENTIONED LETS GOOO also I would suggest gundramon as a gumdramon evo because you just need to swap one letter lol but I enjoy the arrestdramon to magnakidmon evo that the vb used because it keeps the weapon theme of gumdramon but dorugoramon does work design wise the best
Awesome video Karn!
If I can one more for this though, we of course don’t want to forget
ChibiPickmon > Pickmon > Starmon (Rookie) > ShootingStarmon… and for an ultimate? SuperStarmon could work, but what about DarkSuperStarmon > Gankoomon?
I think Junkmon > Machmon > Locomon > GrandLocomon works pretty well
Armamon as Spadamon’s Mega is works great
and also I don’t care what anyone says, Tuwarmon and Arresterdramon are Ultimates and DarkKnightmon is a Mega Level to me
Also an artist called NeoArchAngemon has made some great DigiEvo OC for The Xros War/Fusion Digimons
Incredible concepts.
Thanks so much!
Xros Wars did some interesting things and introduced some awesome new mons like Dark Knightmon, Tactimon, and Shoutmon at a time when the franchise was kinda at a low point. I would love to see some of these be revisited in a more traditional adventure style series.
amazing video. I have only seen a bit of Xross Wars but liked the Megazord comparison, I would love to see more content like custom art for a traditional evolution or what if the other seasons had Xross Wars forms. Heck agumon X8 (the original Digimon) and Veemon X4 (02 Digimon) could even combine. since it is Christmas will we get to see another Christmas/ toy advert episode?
I remember having some thoughts on if the other cross wars partners were the "base" for the digi-cross evolution. Kinda like how exveemon and stingmon make both paildramon and dinobeemon, ballistamon and shoutmon could possibly make ballistamon X2 instead of shoutmon X2. Not sure how much it'd change, but it'd definitely show more as you went up the evolution line to X3, 4, and so on.
These chooses are good and I personally like the idea of Gabumon being Dorulgamon rookie as Gabumon’s Yellow horn leaves him in the Garuramon line so this line he keeps his Horn.
Xros wars is so interesting to me cuz its a series i wasnt super into and ended up dropping but its one im interested to hear more of.
I want a full line for shoutmon, I love the little dude.
With so many gold i'm surprised you didnt use the Austin Powers Goldmember clip "Gold Gold"
Anyways, it was a great video. I didn't watch Xross Wars beyond some funny clips, but i really like your evolution line ideas
Hah I think I've done that reference already a good few times lol
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed!
Xros Wars has my favorite designs in Digimon, so seeing them get some love is nice.
I've kinda fallen into the niche of designing DigiXroses, and I'm always encouraging other people to give it a try, so I'd really get a kick out of a video about new DigiXroses because I'd love to see other peoples' takes on the idea.
That clockmon line cooked. BOILED even.
Ayy, thanks!
I'm actually a pretty big Xros Wars fan (it was the season that got me back into digimon believe it or not lol) and I think you did really good with these picks! Hoping for a custom art video tho, at least for the main characters!
Yeah DX works as Shoutmon's main ultimate, the card game and a couple of games seem to go with that too. I remember reading a pretty good theory for Arresterdramon's line being related to Bagramon, at least based on some descriptions for Gundramon. Could work him as a possible candidate for Ultimate with the Brave Snatcher connection as well.
I still like to think the SM with Brave Snatcher should could count as one though, weird decision to not do it.
For me is weird how Darkknightmon became a perfect, and yet so much material and lore has him keep up with ultimate's and such and later receives an X-Antibody form that work as an ultimate for him, is like the weren't satisfied with that choice.
I know it's hated but I love crosswars. This was an amazing video!
As a Xros Wars fan, I would love to see more from this this underrated series.
For Shoutmon, I can kind of see Shoutmon to RedVeedramon (from Next Order) to Wargrowlmon and then Examon for a red dragon theme although Wargrowlmon I'm not as satisfied since it's part of Takoto's Guilmon. But RedVeedramon has been used a lot less and Examon being a big dragon and Shoutmon's mic being turned into Examon's blade weapon is a nice touch even if it's a stretch.
happy to see a XW video, good job.
Armamon being a legend arms digimon and having visual elements of Spadamon is intentional. in that jp only xros wars game, Spadamons data is used to create Armamon.
Thanks!
And ah, nice! Never played the game, didn't see anything come up regarding that connection but glad I was on the right vibe lol
Spartamon evolution line is awesome
PROTOXKARN UGHHHH MY FAVORITE BOIS
8:50 Well not on her own but with the other Journey to the West digimon she becomes -Buddhamon- Shakamon.
Honestly given the way the story ends, it would actually make sense for her to be able to become Shakamon on her own though, even if they only ascened to arhats and not buddhas and Zhu Bajie didn't actually ascend at all.
love seeing Xros Wars love and want to see more!
Interesting choices and some of them are logical.
I don't really like Xros wars, but Xros wars manga was epic.
Fun idea - evolution lines for Warrior Ten/Ten Legendary Warriors without human and beast spirits.
