Happy TUESDAY, notification squad! We're uploading a day early today because we have some BIG Vital Bracelet news hitting us tomorrow that I want to cover! Let me know your favourite evo in this video and ESPECIALLY if you want me to do this again as a custom art video!
I love your "what ifs" and I would love to see a custom art for these digimon and these ideas you may have! I feel like it would do justice to the digimon that don't have the best fits or were hard to work with, like Digmon and Raidramon!
Fun how the shurimon line ends up feeling like a warrior traveling around the world, picking up different fighting styles along the way. It could also more or less work with the global aspect of the... second half of 02, I believe? When they meet other degidestined around the globe. Cool video as always!
I loved how Gargoylemon got an evolution designed for it in the Pendulum Z with Manticoremon. I hope they do more evolutions like that in the DiMs or vpets!! Especially for the regular 02 guys.
I wish Gargoylemon’s one anime appearance hadn’t made him look so off model. His design is actually sick and perfectly fits besides other holy beast champions imho. It could easily be in Azulongmon’s line also. I love the idea that the four holy beasts can only be evolved into through impossible Digimon l like armor and devas! That’s such a fun concept.
I would definitely enjoy custom ultimates and megas for the armor Digimon, since you could do a lot of different things for them, from fusing the armors for ultimates too doubling down on the elements and crests, also I wouldn’t mind a more fitting kindness armor digivolution for Wormmon, Wormmon definitely needs more love on his own apart from Imperialdramon and the jogress digivolutions
This reminded me of some thoughts I have about the Digimon franchise. For one I wish that Palmon’s Mega was Lotusmon. I like Rosemon as the Lalamon mega and then it would be cool if Lalamon and Palmon could eventually Jogress. That also just gave me the idea that I’d like to see a WarGreymon/Shinegreymon Jogress as well as a MetalGarurumon/MirageGaogamon Jogress. I have no reason for the other two to get Jogresses but Lotusmon and Rosemon getting a Jogress like that makes me want a similar thing for the rest of the partner equivalents. Also I wish that Gatomon was powered down to Salamon in 02 so that the Armor digivolution made more sense. It works in the lore and solves one of the logistical problems with 02
Lotusmon is fairly cool. I'd definitely see her as Mimi and Palmon's "Other Mega", like how (spoilers I suppose) in the 2020 adventure series we see Tai and Agumon getting the BlitzGreymon option, or Matt and Gabumon going for CresGarurumon. Or, for that matter, how Gomamon is in some media (the Wonderswan games come to mind) given the Mega form of Plesiomon instead of Vikemon. (Honestly if you look at it, it seems more like Plesiomon is definitely Mega Gomamon, but Vikemon is most definitely the evolution of Zudomon).
@@redmist6131 Not gonna lie but I’ve never been the biggest fan of MegaGargomon. I don’t hate it and it’s somewhat grown on me but I think it looks kind of goofy for a mega Digimon
Loved a lot of these picks, many of them felt very appropriate and made connections I never even thought about. I'd absolutely love one with original art Digimon too, I think it'd be cool to see hypothetical "intended" evolutions for these Armor Digimon.
I LOVE this concept. I’ve been planning a fanfic for like 20 years that rewrites 02 with the original Sagitarimon concept. Each new kid had to combine their crests. I’ve always wondered what the combined form of the others would be like. I’ve also longed to see this video explored too! If each armor could super evolve like normal champions can. If you made an art video of this I would die!
I’ve come up with an alternative mega for Pegasusmon: KaiTsimon a holy beast Digimon based on the Sinyou or Kia Tsi, a Qillin like creature but more imposing. He is a noble and fare judge, he has the ability to determine truth and deception, also if the deception is harmless of for a good reason. He will let it slide. If not or if his opponent has an evil heart, he punishes the with his attacks like Sacred Blade.
This is so great! It’s cool to see this concept! promise I don’t hate your wallet but it would be cool to see a fan art version of this in the future too!
Love the choices here! I particularly like Pucchiemon and Shurimon’s picks. I’ve thought of some armor evos myself, like Harpymon -> Silphymon -> Valkyrimon and Nohemon -> Yatagaramon -> Valdurmon.
Now I’m imagining what if the armor evolutions DNA Digivolved with each other? With there being 9 different eggs you could have multiple combinations. Two that come to mind is taking Davis’ crests and combining them with TK and Kari. Kari’s Nefertimon fusing with Flamedramon since her brother had the courage crest, then Pegasusmon and Raidramon fusing following the same logic with TK and his brother’s crest
Ok Karn this is insane because I went to bed last night thinking about this and then open youtube to see this video. Shurimon's line is my favorite line but all of them are solid. Thanks for the great vid!
Lol never realized how little thunder/lightning digimon there were. Yea a custom design video would be dope to see. Regardless, awesome picks. I absolutely love Flamedramon going into Vritamon/BurningGreymon
considering I have a character who's main form for his digimon is a Raidramon ...yes, I'd love to see further digivolutions with custom art because I really struggle to find a good ultimate and mega to kinda keep that "electric dragon-dog-thing" vibe going.
Amazing video like always!! Digimon has always had a whole chunk of my heart and I will always love it! I’ve actually wanted to see if all the digidestined from each different show had to get teleported somewhere from a new version of apocalymon and he got his revenge to make them fight. Then they would eventually work together to beat the new apocalymon! But that’s my little what if.
I feel like custom digimon would be something that would fit best for these lines. But you did a good job coming up with the lines using canon Digimon!
super what if video, definitely would have the shurimon or the alternate flamedramon line. thank you for the pronunciation of Bryweludramon I had no idea how to say it even though it has become one of my favourite recent Digimon lines especially when it digivolves into ragnalordmon as for the custom art question, please do it when you can
That was super interesting. Hoping you do more of those in the future. I also like that you gave MarineAngemon to the crest of kindness, so to Ken, thinking back to your forgotten Blast Modes video. Like MarineAngemon Blast Mode is a little devil, which could represent Ken's past as the Digimon Emperor, and he'd need to overcome this fear of becoming evil again or that his partner would become a threat lile Kimeramon. Once he succeeds, MarineAngemon finally controls its Blast Mode without turning evil.
I can't help but wonder what it'd look like if the 02 kids' digimon were to digivolve with two digimentals at the same time. "V-mon dual-armor digivolve to....Flame-Lighdramon? Or Hawkmon digivolving to an armored bird with plant themes, using kiwimon, delumon and ceresmon as design influences. No clue how to combine a drilling bug with a submarine though. Maybe focus on Armodimon's earth aspect and add in vehicle and water elements with a hint of construction equipment to reference digmon. I'd suspect the dual-armor digivolution would be treated as a level higher than a normal armor digivolution.
Since the armor forms equal champions branching off from your idea what if the armor digimon dna digivolved like halsemon and Nefertitimon. It’s a weird idea but Fun. Hope you do this.
I could definitely see Anubismon being the Mega for Nefertimon where they first evolved during an episode involving the Dark Ocean. Probably one where Kari was about to fully succumb to its influence where Nefertimon (or Bastemon/whatever the Ultimate level ended up being if you wanted to treat Neferti as a Champion) jumps in to save her evolving in the process to defeat the Dark Ocean once and for all.
I like HeavyLeomon as a Digmon finale, IF you wanted a certain theme for all of them: - Begin with the armor form showing off the crest's line (so bug for Digmon. I really don't see how you're not seeing all the bug there) - End with the base rookie shining through more. In Digmon's case, see more of Armodillomon's mammal side. - Let the similarities between Digmon's and Submarimon's megas hint at Armodillomon's "true"/traditional mega.
Digmon is actually based on a mole cricket, that’s why it has the bug exoskeleton and the drills, because moles and drills are often sort of roped together in character design in Japanese media (the Godzilla kaiju moguera for example)
I would very much like to see this concept as a custom line video. I always liked the idea of the armor digivolutions refining and upgrading their armors into new forms. Why Digimon never did this I have no idea.
Considering that the only 2 Ultimate level dramon digimon with Lightning element are Mega and Waru Seadramon the Raidramon line works more than fine :D
Personally I think a good ultimate for the Raidramon line would be Weatherdramon. Yes Weatherdramon is both a appmon and a Super Grade which is normally seen as a champion parallel , but it both has that lightning dragon aesthetic and it leads into Azulongmon extremely well
I agree the golden armor digivolutions don't need to evolve more magnamon is already a mega and even a royal knight and rapid mon is also prob a mega tho for magnamon I think it would have worked to give him a mode change like imperialdramon has his Dragon mode fighter mode and even to a extent palidin mode
This was a fun video. I’d be happy to see a custom art version (you and the artists make such interesting choices). However, I’m still happy with what you picked here, even for those with limited pools to draw from!
Karn love your videos and I know adventure 02 is your favorite but I am surprised you haven't done a video on what if the 02 digidestined armor digevolve their champions
I understand your thoughts on Digmon. I thought the same for years until I realized, after playing Mother 3, that Digmon is a Mole Cricket. Therefore, Bug.
Love the video as always you should commission some artists for a video on what if there was a level beyond mega. I know there's technically a level above and also things like burst mode and such but a true next level
I feel like if you go the route of giving DigiEgg-Armor extensions/evolutions, then not sticking to current roster Digimon. In otherwords, fanficart seems like a natural fit.
I’m pretty sure I recall Bastemon activity disliking Nefertimon, something about logs? For that reason, it’s the only one on the list I’m not in favour of. Unfortunately, there aren’t too many good options, but I think I found one that would work. My alternative for this would be Manticoremon. The manticore is the closest thing we’ve got so far to a not ancient Sphinxmon (albeit Persian rather than Egyptian), and it is at an ultimate level. It would still transition nicely from the angelic Nefertimon, to the Angel wielded beast Manticoremon, to the evil punishing Anubimon that wields a beast itself in the form of one of its signature attacks Ammit.
Really loves this video!, could you made costum arts for each armor evolutions but using different digimons? i mean what if Veemon using armor of knowledge? xD lightdramon can be become Blizt wargreymon i think?(the red wargreymon using revolver), since its fit in there, from lighting to magnetic one, but before that i didn't found at all xD
I know some of the rookie Digimon fit the Armors well, but I would like to see specifically designed rookies for things like allomon baromon and others that seem randomly given to Digimon
Definitely would like custom art for this lol. But if we stretched things and make thunderbirdmon an "ultimate" level you could go raidramon > thinderbirdmon > azulongmon
Great video as always 👍🏻 4:17 Also since you felt that Breakdramon was too evil for Digmon in this video you could potentially use it as a dark digivolution form for Digmon in another video if you ever want to try and give 02s armour Digimon dark digivolution forms if that’s even possible?
I love all of your custom evolution line videos. Regardless of if you do it here or not, would still be fun. Would be fun to see a custom DNA Digivolution mix-up idea if you ever felt like it. Hard to beat how badass Paildramon is though.
you should do the custom digivolutions i am making my own fan made pokemon game with my own fakemon so i love seeing fan made monsters. Pokemon/Digimon
Oh man solid video, love these what ifs! They satisfy an itch even if I don't know I had it. Also I was thinking at first it would be a custom art type scenario, didn't think oh wait they could evolve into already existing digimon lol
I would totally want to see custom Armor Ultimates and Megas. (Plus, I even came up with potential terms for the ascended versions of Armor Digivolution. Super Armor being the term for the Ultimate equivalent, because of how it's basically the Armor Digimon ascending beyond its limits to the next level like a Saiyan ascending to a Super Saiyan by supercharging the Digimental to its max. With the Mega equivalent being God Armor that at least in my head brings back the whole idea of Digimental fusion that the 02 writers originally wanted to use, with the 2 Digimentals of the 02 protags with 2 Digimentals acting like magnets with opposing poles attracting to each other, combining like chemical agents to achieve explosive results, like how the Mega Man NT Warrior explains how DoubleSoul works in that continuity. As for Takeru, Hikari, and Ken, they can achieve the same thing after getting their Crests back, by combing the Digimental with their Crest in a similar manner. Though I could also see God Armor working like how the Savers Protags unlocked their Mega Levels to be completely honest.)
Holy crap you replied! That never happens when I comment on videos. I'm looking forward to the idea of you commissioning artists to create those armour fusions you were talking about 😁
i would LOVE to see a custom art video for this, but ontop of that, i think it'd be really cool if/when you did that, you could use this as an opportunity to make two for Wormmon, since we all know Pucchiemon is kinda garbo, you could make one full through line for Pucchiemon, and then one completely custom Love Armor form for Wormmon and evos for that!
I love your videos and would love to see custom art Digimon. These videos really brighten up my day if I'm not having a good time and make the day better if I'm having a good day.
Great Choices all around, but for raidramons ultimate I think you got more choices, ofc if you want to keep the lightning dragon theme: Cyberdramon - desolation claw cuts “digital data” can be stretched to short circuit of electricity to delete data, Triceramon - is azulongmons natural evo I guess, but can understand why to avoid because it was the original digidestineds, Then if you go towards the quadripedal canine nature, can link flamedramon with burning greyMon and raidramon can digivolve to kendogarurumon, But chatsurumon is a good pick too imo and it’s a deva to a sovereign 👀
Damn, gotta love some what ifs. Raidramon got me thinking: As a stretch, couldn't we use KendoGarurumon/Garummon to be it's perfect evolution? It mantains the quadruped thing going on, it's armored, lightning is a form of light, Raidramon also pass the ideia it's a dog?! Eeeeeh, kinda?! XD Also, Karn, I marked ya on twitter but I think I passed the wrong idea. When I suggested a motif change, I used one of your videos as an example. What I meant was: What if Digimon adventure used cards and biomerge; What if Tamers used Digital Natural Ability, and so on. Sorry about that, not trying to rip you off, :/ Awesome video as always, ^^
I would love a custom art version of this concept. Im always happy too see new and intresting concepts and the Armors getting more digivolutions would be great.
With the emphasis of being armored on the evos here, I'd very much like to see "intended" evos for each. Since the Digimentals fuse aspecst into the Digimon and manifest as armor over them, I think an evo from Armor-level further utilizing the digimental would go more into the already added elements, more properly becoming part of the body, rather than remaining armor.
I think the end of the Flamedramon line could benefit from being KaiserGreymon, as Flamedramon really emphasizes flames AND his massive, sword-like horn.
I would definitely look at a custom art/original digimon video of Evolved Armors. It's always interesting seeing what new additions people come up with in fan stuff.
I think a custom art would be cool, you could possibly explore some of the other Armours as well, such as Baromon, Prairiemon, Swanmon, Toucanmon... I keep forgetting how many there actually are!! Mind you, I do also like how they pop up occassionally, as well as how prevelant they are in Frontier! There's so many there... I suddenly wonder which series features more Armours: 02 or Frontier?
I love the idea of fusing the Digiarmors, sort of combining both Armor Digivolutions and DNA Digivolving, having a Flamedramon + Raidramon custom Ultimate. I would love to see you do customs for all three of the double digimetals, and MAYBE for fun, also have Pegasusmon and Nefertimon combine as well.
For me personally: - For Digmon, I think I'd go with The 1st Route you shown - Cause I'd love GodDramon being together with HolyDramon, I'll go with the OTHER Mega - Tailmon's Rookie Form, Plotmon is a Puppy so it actually fits well with The New Mega - If POSSIBLE for Fladramon, I'd use the 1st Choice Ultimate that would then Digivolve to the Alternate Choice Mega to parallel the stances of Paildramon AND Imperialdramon. The same reason why maybe choice for Lighdramon's Ultimate might be good too - For Puuchiemon, 1st Line you shown Suits it better
Funnily enough a version of this scenario already happened in 02 lore for the armor digieggs/digimentals. In the ancient digital world it was extremely difficult and rare to to evolve past child/rookie stage so the armor digieggs were made as a workaround. This culminated into certain armor digimon becoming the digimon sovereigns like azulongmon who evolved from either raidramon or flamedramon. Most likely raidramon considering how similar azulongmons head covering looks to raidramons. Given how digimon antagonists have their pre-evos as minions usually and the devas in tamers fit that role for the sovereigns then the devas fit the role of perfect level and would probably be used if unique evolution lines werent used instead. Armor digimon also come in champion/adult stage flavors so they aren't exclusively armor stage or unable to evolve past it either and can also evolve naturally from child/rookie digimon without the armor eggs. Not sure about adult levels like gatomon but slide evolution is a thing so probably. Im not entirely sure what changed to lift those restrictions on evolution though. Supposedly lucemon before he fell defeated huanglongmon when it went out of control and frontier canon states that the og legendary warriors were the first megas and gave the power of evolution to the rest of the digital world after defeating lucemon so maybe the canons are linked. Thats just speculation though on my part. All that said, this is a really cool video with some great picks imo. I never noticed how much ajatarmon fits shurimon for some reason. Lol As todd howard says about the elders scrolls, "it just works."
Happy TUESDAY, notification squad! We're uploading a day early today because we have some BIG Vital Bracelet news hitting us tomorrow that I want to cover! Let me know your favourite evo in this video and ESPECIALLY if you want me to do this again as a custom art video!

I wouldn't mind the custom are video
100% down for a custom art version of this
@@chimuoma390 The intro music is Biggest Dreamer from Rumble Arena, not Reapermon's Theme
Yes! Custom art video, please.
I love your "what ifs" and I would love to see a custom art for these digimon and these ideas you may have! I feel like it would do justice to the digimon that don't have the best fits or were hard to work with, like Digmon and Raidramon!
Agreed
Fun how the shurimon line ends up feeling like a warrior traveling around the world, picking up different fighting styles along the way. It could also more or less work with the global aspect of the... second half of 02, I believe? When they meet other degidestined around the globe.

Definitely agree! Would be so cool to see!
I wish Gargoylemon’s one anime appearance hadn’t made him look so off model. His design is actually sick and perfectly fits besides other holy beast champions imho. It could easily be in Azulongmon’s line also.
I love the idea that the four holy beasts can only be evolved into through impossible Digimon l like armor and devas! That’s such a fun concept.
I would definitely enjoy custom ultimates and megas for the armor Digimon, since you could do a lot of different things for them, from fusing the armors for ultimates too doubling down on the elements and crests, also I wouldn’t mind a more fitting kindness armor digivolution for Wormmon, Wormmon definitely needs more love on his own apart from Imperialdramon and the jogress digivolutions
This reminded me of some thoughts I have about the Digimon franchise. For one I wish that Palmon’s Mega was Lotusmon. I like Rosemon as the Lalamon mega and then it would be cool if Lalamon and Palmon could eventually Jogress. That also just gave me the idea that I’d like to see a WarGreymon/Shinegreymon Jogress as well as a MetalGarurumon/MirageGaogamon Jogress. I have no reason for the other two to get Jogresses but Lotusmon and Rosemon getting a Jogress like that makes me want a similar thing for the rest of the partner equivalents. Also I wish that Gatomon was powered down to Salamon in 02 so that the Armor digivolution made more sense. It works in the lore and solves one of the logistical problems with 02
Lotusmon is fairly cool. I'd definitely see her as Mimi and Palmon's "Other Mega", like how (spoilers I suppose) in the 2020 adventure series we see Tai and Agumon getting the BlitzGreymon option, or Matt and Gabumon going for CresGarurumon. Or, for that matter, how Gomamon is in some media (the Wonderswan games come to mind) given the Mega form of Plesiomon instead of Vikemon. (Honestly if you look at it, it seems more like Plesiomon is definitely Mega Gomamon, but Vikemon is most definitely the evolution of Zudomon).
to be fair wasn't Lotusmon supposed to be Lalamon's mega but the design just wasn't done on time or something?
@@Rikarikun I mean fair. I also don’t mind flipping it and Lotusmon being the Lalamon mega I just want to split up the two Megas between the two lines
Personally I would love to see metalgarurumon and megagargomon jogress
@@redmist6131 Not gonna lie but I’ve never been the biggest fan of MegaGargomon. I don’t hate it and it’s somewhat grown on me but I think it looks kind of goofy for a mega Digimon

He is a noble and fare judge, he has the ability to determine truth and deception, also if the deception is harmless of for a good reason. He will let it slide. If not or if his opponent has an evil heart, he punishes the with his attacks like Sacred Blade.
Idea of Digmon later becoming beast like fits as Armadillomon is beast digimon
All I’m saying… is dibs on Raidramon.
And also saying. I’m imagining dub wormon’s voice coming out of Cho hakaimon’s face now. And it’s glorious.
Haaaaah that'd be so funny
You know what I find interesting about Pucchiemon? Design-wise, he could be like a big brother kinda thing for Terriermon and Lopmon.
I would've given Halsemon Hippogriffomon as his ultimate. It literally wears the digi mental of love around its neck
I would indeed like this video again with custom art
This is so great! It’s cool to see this concept! promise I don’t hate your wallet but it would be cool to see a fan art version of this in the future too!

So yes, I do wanna see a variation of this with custom art.

You should do a what if armor Digimon had to DNA digivolve and show the combos of all the 02 armor Digimon potential DNA digivolutions
That was super interesting. Hoping you do more of those in the future. I also like that you gave MarineAngemon to the crest of kindness, so to Ken, thinking back to your forgotten Blast Modes video. Like MarineAngemon Blast Mode is a little devil, which could represent Ken's past as the Digimon Emperor, and he'd need to overcome this fear of becoming evil again or that his partner would become a threat lile Kimeramon. Once he succeeds, MarineAngemon finally controls its Blast Mode without turning evil.
Thanks so much! And ooooh I hadn't even considered that! That's a super fun idea!
I also think MarineAngemon would be a good setup (or payoff) to delve into the Dark Ocean more.
Rewatching this I realized how badly I wanted a custom art version of this. Also biomerges for the OG adventure kids when?
Lmao doing the theme along with the theme.
This is a great "what if" concept. Definitely wanna see a custom art video for this one
I can't help but wonder what it'd look like if the 02 kids' digimon were to digivolve with two digimentals at the same time. "V-mon dual-armor digivolve to....Flame-Lighdramon?

I'd suspect the dual-armor digivolution would be treated as a level higher than a normal armor digivolution.
12:25 to be honest, I was expecting some custom art during this. So yeah! Make another using custom art.
Since the armor forms equal champions branching off from your idea what if the armor digimon dna digivolved like halsemon and Nefertitimon. It’s a weird idea but Fun. Hope you do this.

Hmmm that's an interesting idea, thanks!
@@Karn_EX I know I don't think it ever was stated that they had to be rookie or rookie power level to be able to use it
I understand your thoughts on Digmon. I thought the same for years until I realized, after playing Mother 3, that Digmon is a Mole Cricket. Therefore, Bug.
I love seeing custom made Digimon
YES! Like you, I love Armor Evolution so it's fun exploring how to take it further.
This is what I always wantedddd in the anime! I'm stoked you covered this!
Ayyy thanks!
Love these what if videos and would love if you did a custom art video for this! Would love to see the ideas you and artists would come up with!
Thanks so much, will definitely consider it!
Love the video as always you should commission some artists for a video on what if there was a level beyond mega.
I know there's technically a level above and also things like burst mode and such but a true next level
I feel like if you go the route of giving DigiEgg-Armor extensions/evolutions, then not sticking to current roster Digimon. In otherwords, fanficart seems like a natural fit.
I’m pretty sure I recall Bastemon activity disliking Nefertimon, something about logs? For that reason, it’s the only one on the list I’m not in favour of. Unfortunately, there aren’t too many good options, but I think I found one that would work. My alternative for this would be Manticoremon.
The manticore is the closest thing we’ve got so far to a not ancient Sphinxmon (albeit Persian rather than Egyptian), and it is at an ultimate level.
It would still transition nicely from the angelic Nefertimon, to the Angel wielded beast Manticoremon, to the evil punishing Anubimon that wields a beast itself in the form of one of its signature attacks Ammit.
I would like to see custom art for the armor gang, seems fun
Would love to draw some armor evolution...evolutions Raidramon is also my favorite (and best) armor evo
Really loves this video!,
could you made costum arts for each armor evolutions but using different digimons?
i mean what if Veemon using armor of knowledge? xD
lightdramon can be become Blizt wargreymon i think?(the red wargreymon using revolver), since its fit in there, from lighting to magnetic one, but before that i didn't found at all xD
The amount of times I have done that in the intro hits so hard! Great intro!
I know some of the rookie Digimon fit the Armors well, but I would like to see specifically designed rookies for things like allomon baromon and others that seem randomly given to Digimon
Instead of focusing on the lighting ascetic of Raidramon you could have focused of the quadrupedal beast part. As such you could use Kendogarurumon.
I got into Digimon a couple of weeks ago and I absolutely love it! The art on these digital monsters are just so beautiful
Have you don’t a custom art video on what if the other 02kids digimon had proper full evolutions (like how veemon has ulforce veedramon)?
Definitely would like custom art for this lol.
But if we stretched things and make thunderbirdmon an "ultimate" level you could go raidramon > thinderbirdmon > azulongmon
Videos like these are always fun. I hope you continue to make awesome videos like these.
Thanks so much, Brandon!
Great video as always 👍🏻
4:17 Also since you felt that Breakdramon was too evil for Digmon in this video you could potentially use it as a dark digivolution form for Digmon in another video if you ever want to try and give 02s armour Digimon dark digivolution forms if that’s even possible?
I love all of your custom evolution line videos. Regardless of if you do it here or not, would still be fun. Would be fun to see a custom DNA Digivolution mix-up idea if you ever felt like it. Hard to beat how badass Paildramon is though.
Aww thanks so much, that means a lot! I did one a month or two back but would love to do another!
@@Karn_EX sounds fun! I'll have to go search for it!
Yes revisit this idea with custom art
you should do the custom digivolutions i am making my own fan made pokemon game with my own fakemon so i love seeing fan made monsters. Pokemon/Digimon
Your custom what ifs are awesome & it also helps avoid the headaches u r facing when creating some of these vids
Noted!
Oh man solid video, love these what ifs! They satisfy an itch even if I don't know I had it. Also I was thinking at first it would be a custom art type scenario, didn't think oh wait they could evolve into already existing digimon lol
Thank you! Definitely seems people wanna see it so I'll work on getting a custom art video together!
@@Karn_EX 🙏🏼 thank you as well for the sick content mate. Excited to see the next ideas
I would totally want to see custom Armor Ultimates and Megas. (Plus, I even came up with potential terms for the ascended versions of Armor Digivolution. Super Armor being the term for the Ultimate equivalent, because of how it's basically the Armor Digimon ascending beyond its limits to the next level like a Saiyan ascending to a Super Saiyan by supercharging the Digimental to its max. With the Mega equivalent being God Armor that at least in my head brings back the whole idea of Digimental fusion that the 02 writers originally wanted to use, with the 2 Digimentals of the 02 protags with 2 Digimentals acting like magnets with opposing poles attracting to each other, combining like chemical agents to achieve explosive results, like how the Mega Man NT Warrior explains how DoubleSoul works in that continuity. As for Takeru, Hikari, and Ken, they can achieve the same thing after getting their Crests back, by combing the Digimental with their Crest in a similar manner. Though I could also see God Armor working like how the Savers Protags unlocked their Mega Levels to be completely honest.)
Keep up the "What Ifs" Karn! I live for these videos
Glad you like them!
Holy crap you replied!
That never happens when I comment on videos.
I'm looking forward to the idea of you commissioning artists to create those armour fusions you were talking about 😁
i would LOVE to see a custom art video for this, but ontop of that, i think it'd be really cool if/when you did that, you could use this as an opportunity to make two for Wormmon, since we all know Pucchiemon is kinda garbo, you could make one full through line for Pucchiemon, and then one completely custom Love Armor form for Wormmon and evos for that!
I love your videos and would love to see custom art Digimon. These videos really brighten up my day if I'm not having a good time and make the day better if I'm having a good day.
Customs would look dope definitely should do it
Great Choices all around, but for raidramons ultimate I think you got more choices, ofc if you want to keep the lightning dragon theme:
Cyberdramon - desolation claw cuts “digital data” can be stretched to short circuit of electricity to delete data,
Triceramon - is azulongmons natural evo I guess, but can understand why to avoid because it was the original digidestineds,
Then if you go towards the quadripedal canine nature, can link flamedramon with burning greyMon and raidramon can digivolve to kendogarurumon,
But chatsurumon is a good pick too imo and it’s a deva to a sovereign 👀
I would definitely love to see this done with custom art. Great video again
Noted! Thank you!
😂 oh God I did not see that Proto jab coming! Good stuff man I love it 🤣
I’d definitely love to see custom art evolutions for the digieggs!
PLEASE do the custom arts, I absolutely love your takes on custom digimon and I'd love to see the armor digimon get their own custom lines.
Would definitely be dope to see coustom art always enjoy your content keep up the good work🙌🙌
Having custom art sounds fun
Yeah, would definitely want to see this revisited as a custom art video.
Dude totally do custom art cause id love to see hawkmons and veemons customs alot
Custom Fan Digimon are always sick
Oh this is such a cool concept/video, awesome job Karn!
Glad you think so!
Damn, gotta love some what ifs. Raidramon got me thinking: As a stretch, couldn't we use KendoGarurumon/Garummon to be it's perfect evolution? It mantains the quadruped thing going on, it's armored, lightning is a form of light, Raidramon also pass the ideia it's a dog?! Eeeeeh, kinda?! XD
Also, Karn, I marked ya on twitter but I think I passed the wrong idea. When I suggested a motif change, I used one of your videos as an example. What I meant was: What if Digimon adventure used cards and biomerge; What if Tamers used Digital Natural Ability, and so on. Sorry about that, not trying to rip you off, :/
Awesome video as always, ^^
I would love a custom art version of this concept. Im always happy too see new and intresting concepts and the Armors getting more digivolutions would be great.
A surprise , to be sure, but a welcome one
With the emphasis of being armored on the evos here, I'd very much like to see "intended" evos for each. Since the Digimentals fuse aspecst into the Digimon and manifest as armor over them, I think an evo from Armor-level further utilizing the digimental would go more into the already added elements, more properly becoming part of the body, rather than remaining armor.
I think the end of the Flamedramon line could benefit from being KaiserGreymon, as Flamedramon really emphasizes flames AND his massive, sword-like horn.
I would definitely look at a custom art/original digimon video of Evolved Armors. It's always interesting seeing what new additions people come up with in fan stuff.
I would love to see custom evolutions for the armor Digimon but more than that I want custom evolutions for XVmon
I think a custom art would be cool, you could possibly explore some of the other Armours as well, such as Baromon, Prairiemon, Swanmon, Toucanmon... I keep forgetting how many there actually are!! Mind you, I do also like how they pop up occassionally, as well as how prevelant they are in Frontier! There's so many there... I suddenly wonder which series features more Armours: 02 or Frontier?
Please do a custom art video for the armor digivolutions getting digivolutions!
I love the idea of fusing the Digiarmors, sort of combining both Armor Digivolutions and DNA Digivolving, having a Flamedramon + Raidramon custom Ultimate. I would love to see you do customs for all three of the double digimetals, and MAYBE for fun, also have Pegasusmon and Nefertimon combine as well.
For me personally:
- For Digmon, I think I'd go with The 1st Route you shown
- Cause I'd love GodDramon being together with HolyDramon, I'll go with the OTHER Mega
- Tailmon's Rookie Form, Plotmon is a Puppy so it actually fits well with The New Mega
- If POSSIBLE for Fladramon, I'd use the 1st Choice Ultimate that would then Digivolve to the Alternate Choice Mega to parallel the stances of Paildramon AND Imperialdramon. The same reason why maybe choice for Lighdramon's Ultimate might be good too
- For Puuchiemon, 1st Line you shown Suits it better
Funnily enough a version of this scenario already happened in 02 lore for the armor digieggs/digimentals. In the ancient digital world it was extremely difficult and rare to to evolve past child/rookie stage so the armor digieggs were made as a workaround. This culminated into certain armor digimon becoming the digimon sovereigns like azulongmon who evolved from either raidramon or flamedramon. Most likely raidramon considering how similar azulongmons head covering looks to raidramons. Given how digimon antagonists have their pre-evos as minions usually and the devas in tamers fit that role for the sovereigns then the devas fit the role of perfect level and would probably be used if unique evolution lines werent used instead. Armor digimon also come in champion/adult stage flavors so they aren't exclusively armor stage or unable to evolve past it either and can also evolve naturally from child/rookie digimon without the armor eggs. Not sure about adult levels like gatomon but slide evolution is a thing so probably. Im not entirely sure what changed to lift those restrictions on evolution though. Supposedly lucemon before he fell defeated huanglongmon when it went out of control and frontier canon states that the og legendary warriors were the first megas and gave the power of evolution to the rest of the digital world after defeating lucemon so maybe the canons are linked. Thats just speculation though on my part.
All that said, this is a really cool video with some great picks imo. I never noticed how much ajatarmon fits shurimon for some reason. Lol As todd howard says about the elders scrolls, "it just works."
