    You forgot to mention Xross Evolution, as well as SuperUltimate/Ultra level. Plus it would have been nice to hear about Mega 2 level (fandom term for Mega level digimon that evolve into *stronger* Mega levels), who aren't considered SuperUltimate, like TyrantKabuterimon and Valdurmon.

    @Alice_Haukea 5 місяців тому

    It is still confusing as to what the evolution tree is supposed to look like for each Digimon. There are a plethora of variables that can cause the same digimon to change to different forms. But understanding the "default" or "natural" form through sheer long life and natural growth is where I'm not sure.
    But my real question is in regards to the X Antibody. For the sake of example, my favorite digimon line, the Tyrannomon line. Tyrannomon and MetalTyrannomon have an X antibody form. But their final stage, RustTyrannomon does not. So, what happens if Tyrannomon is exposed to the X antibody and turns into the X variant? Can it still digivolve into MetalTyrannomon X? From there, can MetalTyrannomon digivolve to RustTyrannomon still? Would the X antibody carry over or disappear?

    I noticed that some of the beginning was taken from my comment on the community page. I really do wonder how the meeting of the pokemon world and the digital world would turn out and the fusion between the two worlds. If something unfortunate like a war between the two were to break out, the human world would probably be ground zero. A world of magic and myth, and a world of data and information. When the two meet and become one, something fantastical happens.

    Well, the Digivices are sending out the light of digivolution. Without it they can't digivolve. It is the source of digivolution. If I'm right, it depends on the DigiDestined and the situation and the digi-entelecheia/Digi-Entelechy if a digivolution from the Digivice happens.

      The primary function of the Digivice is to channel the emotional energy of a DigiDestined child to their Digimon partner, who can use it as fuel to digivolve.

    I always interpreted digivolution this way: if a Digimon goes from one level to the next in chronological order, I say it’s just a digivolution. If they skip a level then it’s a warp. I know each series calls it differently but I don’t see a difference.
    Also, I always thought Gatomon was in her ultimate form because she naturally reached that level on her own before meeting Kari. The others would, at first, regress to their in-training form after their ultimate form which is the level they were before the kids. Gatomon would regress to her rookie form instead.

      Buddhism includes a wide array of divine beings that are venerated in various ritual and popular contexts. Initially they included mainly Indian figures such as devas, asuras and yakshas, but later came to include other Asian spirits and local gods (like the Burmese nats and the Japanese kami). They range from enlightened Buddhas to regional spirits adopted by Buddhists or practiced on the margins of the religion.
      Buddhists later also came to incorporate aspects from the countries to which it spread. As such, it includes many aspects taken from other mythologies of those cultures.
      Buddhas
      A Buddha is a being who is fully awakened and has fully comprehended the Four Noble Truths. In the Theravada tradition, while there is a list of acknowledged past Buddhas, the historical Buddha Sakyamuni is the only Buddha of our current era and is generally not seen as accessible or as existing in some higher plane of existence. The Pali literature of the Theravāda tradition includes tales of twenty-nine Buddhas, which are Sakyamuni and the twenty-eight Buddhas who preceded him.
      Mahayana Buddhists venerate numerous Buddhas, more so than the Theravada tradition, including Maitreya and Amitābha, who are seen as beings of great wisdom and power who preside over pure lands that one can travel to after death. Mahayana and Vajrayana traditions also recognize five primary Buddhas:
      Vairocana ("the Illuminator"), a key figure in the Avatamsaka Sutra and the Vairocanābhisaṃbodhi Sūtra. He is the central Buddha in Huayan Buddhism, Chinese Esoteric Buddhism and Shingon. His pure land is known as the Padmagarbhalokadhātu (the lotus treasury world) and also as "Densely Arrayed Akaniṣṭha" (Ghanavyūhakaniṣṭha).
      Akshobhya ("the Imperturbable"), his buddha-field is Abhirati (lit. "The Joyous").
      Amitābha (Amida Buddha, ."Infinite Light"), the principal Buddha of Pure Land Buddhism. His buddha-field is called Sukhāvatī ("Blissful").
      Amoghasiddhi ("Infallible Success")
      Ratnasambhava ("Jewel Born")
      Each is associated with a different consort, direction, aggregate (or, aspect of the personality), emotion, element, color, symbol, and mount. In later, especially tantric sources, each male Buddha is associated with a specific female Buddha (though their names and attributes vary across the various Buddhist sources). Here is one common list of the five female Buddhas
      Ākāśadhātvīśvarī ("The Sovereign Lady of the Sphere of Infinite Space"), the prajñā of Vairocana
      Locanā, the prajñā of Akṣobhya
      Māmakī ("Mine-maker"), the prajñā of Ratnasambhava
      Paṇḍāravāsinī ("White Robed One"), the prajñā of Amitabha
      Tārā ('Star"), sometimes associated with Amoghasiddhi, sometimes Amitabha
      In Tibetan Buddhism, several female Buddhas are also recognized, such as Tara, the most popular female Buddha in Tibetan Buddhism, who comes in many forms and colors. Other female Buddha figures include Vajrayogini, Nairatmya, and Kurukullā.
      Other Buddhas besides these five include Bhaisajyaguru (the Buddha of medicine) and Nageshvara Raja (the king of the Nāgas).
      There is also the idea of the Adi-Buddha, the "first Buddha" to attain Buddhahood. Variously named as Vajradhara, Samantabhadra and Mahavairocana, the first Buddha is also associated with the concept of Dharmakaya and the Ground of all phenomena.
      Some historical figures are also seen as Buddhas, such as the Buddhist philosopher Nagarjuna (sometimes called the second Buddha) and the figure of Padmasambhava.
      Bodhisattvas
      In Theravada Buddhism, bodhisatta is a term used mainly for Sakyamuni Buddha before his awakening. It is also commonly believed that the future Buddha, Maitreya (Pali: Metteya) currently resides in Tushita Heaven, and this figure is one of the few bodhisattvas who have a prominent place in Theravada.
      In Mahayana Buddhism, a bodhisattva is any being that has aroused bodhicitta (mind of awakening) and is thus working towards full Buddhahood. Bodhisattvas who are seen as powerful and highly advanced are highly venerated in this tradition.
      In India, a list known as the "Eight Close Sons" (Skt. aṣṭa utaputra) became the main set of bodhisattvas of Shakyamuni Buddha's entourage, they are:
      Mañjuśrī ("Gentle Glory") Kumarabhuta ("Young Prince"), the main bodhisattva of wisdom
      Avalokiteśvara ("Lord who gazes down at the world"), the savior bodhisattva of great compassion
      Vajrapāṇi ("Vajra in hand"), the bodhisattva of protection, the protector of the Buddha (in East Asian sources, this slot is taken by Mahāsthāmaprāpta, though Vajrapāṇi is also found in these traditions)
      Maitreya ("Friendly One"), will become the Buddha of our world in the future
      Kṣitigarbha ("Earth Source"), known as the savior of beings from hell
      Ākāśagarbha ("Space Source") also known as Gaganagañja, associated with the space element (ākāśa).
      Sarvanivāraṇaviṣkambhin ("He who blocks the hindrances")
      Samantabhadra ("Universal Worthy", or "All Good"), associated with vows

      In Tibetan Buddhism, a Vajrayana Buddhist tradition, the major bodhisattvas are these "eight great bodhisattvas".
      The bodhisattva Prajñāpāramitā-devi is a female personification of the perfection of wisdom and the Prajñāpāramitā sutras. She became an important figure, widely depicted in Indian Buddhist art. She is the main female bodhisattva in Indian sources. Other Mahayana sutras also depict female bodhisattvas, such as The Lion's Roar of Śrīmālādevī.
      Other male bodhisattvas appearing in Indian sources include Candraprabha, Suryaprabha, Bhaiṣajyasamudgata, Bhaiṣajyarāja, Akṣayamati, and Vajrasattva. There are also other female bodhisattvas like Tara, Ushnishavijaya, Vasudhara and Cundi.
      In the East Asian Buddhist traditions, which are mainly Mahayana, major bodhisattvas include many of the above: Guānyīn (Japanese: Kannon), Maitreya (Chinese: Mílè, Jp: Miroku), Samantabhadra (Ch: Pǔxián, Jp: Fugen), Manjushri (Wénshū), Ksitigarbha (Ch: Jìzàng Jp: Jizō), and Akasagarbha. The most popular bodhisattva in the East Asian pantheon is surely Guānyīn (the East Asian form of the Indian Avalokitesvara) who is depicted as female in East Asia, rather than as the Indian male Avalokitesvara. Guanyin is also believed by Buddhists to take on numerous manifestations, among which are several other bodhisattvas such as Cundi and Cintamanicakra.
      In addition, Buddhist traditions in different countries have also absorbed native deities into their localized Buddhist pantheon, sometimes as Bodhisattvas. Some examples are Guan Yu in Chinese Buddhism, who is venerated as Sangharama Bodhisattva (Chinese: 伽藍菩薩; Pinyin: Qiélán Púsà) as well as a deity, and Hachiman in Japanese Buddhism, who is venerated as the Bodhisattva Hachiman (Japanese: 八幡大菩薩; Rōmaji: Hachiman Daibosatsu).
      Certain historical figures have been considered to be bodhisattvas, like Nagarjuna. Followers of Tibetan Buddhism consider reborn tulkus such as the Dalai Lamas and the Karmapas to be emanations of bodhisattvas. East Asian Buddhist traditions may venerate certain historical figures as bodhisattvas, such as Kukai in the Shingon school.
      Protector deities
      There are various types of apotropaic deities whose main role is as guardian deities, protectors or general removers of evil. Some of these are unique to Buddhism and others are Indian deities that Buddhism shares with Hinduism. These deities can be seen as bodhisattvas, as devas, or even as manifestations of a Buddha.
      Wisdom King
      The Wisdom Kings (Sanskrit: Vidyārāja) are beings that are venerated in East Asian Buddhism and in Vajrayana Buddhism. They are often depicted with an aggressive or fierce appearance which symbolizes their power to get rid of negative forces. They are thus often seen as an expression of the Buddha's compassion.
      In East Asian Buddhism, The Five Wisdom Kings are often seen as emanations of the Buddhas. These five are:
      Vajrayakṣa
      Acala
      Trailokyavijaya
      Kuṇḍali
      Yamantaka
      Other important Wisdom Kings include
      Ucchuṣma
      Hayagriva
      Āṭavaka
      Rāgarāja
      Aparajita
      Mahachakra
      Padanaksipa
      Five Protector Goddesses
      The Pañcarakṣā ("Five Protectors") are five protector goddesses which are important in tantric Buddhism, the term also refers to their dhāraṇīs.
      These five protective dhāraṇī-goddesses are:
      Mahāpratisarā (known for protection against defilements, disease, and evils),
      Mahāsahasrapramardinī (for protection against evil spirits),
      Mahāmāyūrī or vidyārājñī (for protection against snake-poison),
      Mahāśītavatī (for protection against 'cruel' planets, cruel animals, and poisonous insects), and
      Mahārakṣā mantrānusāriṇī (for protection against diseases).
      Dharmapalas
      In Tibetan Buddhism, there are numerous "dharma protectors" (dharmapalas) which are considered to be emanations of bodhisattvas or Buddhas. These include popular dharma protectors like: Ekajaṭī, Mahākāla, Palden Lhamo, and Hayagrīva.
      The Twenty Four Dharmapalas
      In Chinese Buddhism, there is a list of Twenty-Four Protective Deities (Chinese: 二十四諸天; pinyin: Èrshísì Zhūtiān). These dharmapalas (Dharma protectors) are seen as defenders of Buddhism and protectors of Buddhists against evil or harm. They are:
