Pokemon and Digimon are considered two of the biggest 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:monster-catching franchises in existence. Both have had a long and prosperous life of over two decades and both have accumulated many fans. That being said, there has always been a great rivalry between the two. Many Pokemon fans see Digimon as a cheep rip-off, while Digimon fans detest Pokemon since it 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:overshadows their franchise.
Despite their differences, no one can deny that a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:crossover between the two would be incredible. While there is a clear power gap between most Pokemon and Digimon, seeing traine🀅rs interact with Digimon rather than Pokemon would be something out of a dream. In that same vein of thought, here are the perfect partner Digimon for some of our favorite trainers.
10 ♑ Brock - Gotsumon ꦏ
As Kanto's rock-type gym leader, it's only natural that Brock's partner Digimon would be Gotsumon. This pairing is a bit on the nose, but there's no other Digimon that matches Brock as perfectly as Gotsumon. As a Digimon made up almost entirely of rock, Gotsumon is 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a great parallel to Brock's Geodude and Onix.
To keep with the rock theme, Gotsumon would digivolve to Golemon, then to Gogmamon, and then finally Blastmon. Golemon not only represents golems, automatons typically made from earth or clay, but also Brock's own Golem if only in name alone. Finally, Gogmamon and Blastmon, while not particularly stone-like in appearance, both have large crystals incorporated into their bodies, making them the best match for a trainer with a "rock-hard will" like Brock.
9 ﷽Misty - Gomamon
While a Digimon that reflects Misty's more iconic Pokemon, Staryu and Starmie, would be ideal, there are currently no starfish-like Digimon to choose from. There are of course other aquatic Digimon to choose from, most don't have the "cute" factor that Misty seems to gravitate towards in the anime. As such, Gomamon is the best fit for a water-type master like Misty.
From Gomamon, Misty's partner will become the iconic Ikkakumon, then Zudomon, before ending with Plesiomon. While the vast majority of these Digimon are mammalian in design when compared to the majority of Misty's team, they are the standard evolutions of the Gomamon line and Plesiomon is a perfect match for the Lapras Misty has in several of the games.
8 💙 ꦓ Lance - Dracomon
The first thing that comes to mind when you think of Lance is his dragons. Sure, his team mainly consists of flying-types, especially in his first few appearances, but his title of Dragon Master is synonymous with his character. With tꦆhat in mind, a dragon Digimon like Dracomon would be a perfect fit fo🔯r Lance.
Keeping with the dragon theme, Dracomon would then become Coredramon (Blue), then Airdramon, and then to the mighty Examon. With Examon being the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:strongest dragon Digimon and🅰 Lance being a Dragon Master𒁃, this duo is not only a perfect match but also a devastating combination.
7 Giovanni - Kimeramon 𝓀 𝓡
Unlike the other trainers on this list, Giovanni doesn't have a partner Pokemon in the conventional sense. Yes, there are quite a few rookie Digimon that would fit Pokemon's infamous mob boss, but the Digimon that most closely matches him would have to be Kimeramon.
When Kimeramon was first introduced in the anime, it was shown being created by the Digimon Emperor. This greatly parallels Giovanni's role in the conception of Mewtwo, who, at least for a time, was Giovanni's partner. To take it a step further, Kimeramon can digivolve into Millenniummon, a Digimon of pure destruction. The perfect tool for a trainer seeking world domination.
6 𒊎 Guzma - Tentomon
As a bug-type trainer, getting the quintessential Digimon bug would be perfect for Team Skull's leader. While it would be easy to pair Guzma with a more mischievous or delinquent-esque Pokemon like Impmon, but it wouldn't match 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:his bug theme. Even though Tentomon is portrayed as benevolent if not a little timid, it surprisingly fits the personality of Guzma's Golisopod.
The Tentomon line is incredibly intimidating for such a mild-mannered Digimon, much like how Wimpod turns into the scary-looking Golisopod. Guzma's Tentomon would follow the typical progression for its species and become Kabuterimon and then MegaKabuterimon before reaching HerculesKabuterimon. Each bug is more fierce-looking than the last, but they all keep the same lovable personality.
5 Nurse Jo♚y - Penguinmon
Penguinmon may seem like an odd choice for Nurse Joy, and you'd be right. Most would assume that a Digimon paired with Pokemon's iconic healer would be some sort of cute or pink Digimon like Cutemon, but these types of Digimon aren't healers. The Digimon that would be paired with Nurse Joy would have to have healing capabilities and a Digimon in the Penguinmon line is known for its ability to heal.
Ignoring its first two digivolutions, Dolphmon and Whamon, Penguinmon's final form is MarineAngemon, a Pixie Digimon that is one of the best support Digimon in all the games. It's only had a few appearances in the anime, but even then it has been shown as more of a healer than a fighter. It's even pink, making this Digimon a good substitute for Chansey and Blissey.
4 ꦚ Leon - Agumon (2006) 💧
Picking a Pokemon for Leon is a fairly simple process. While his team is very dไiverse, he is most known for his Charizard. Specifically his Gigantamax Charizard. To match such a Pokemon, the Digimon equivalent would have to be just as🎶 powerful and fiery. Ergo Agumon.
The Agumon that Leon is paired with would have to be the Agumon that appeared in the Digimon Saver anime. This Agumon digivolves to GeoGreymon, RizeGreymon, and finally ShineGreymon. To match Gigantamix Charizard, ShineGreymon can digivolve further into ShineGreymon Burst Mode, a Digimon's whose wings and weapons become engulfed in flames. This is undoubtedly the perfect Digimon to match Leon's fiery spirit.
3 ꦡ Ser💙ena - Renamon
Serena is another trainer who doesn't typically stick with one type. In both the anime and the games, her team is always diverse. That being said, there is a common theme with teams. Nearly all of her Pokemon are elegant and fast while still being strong. This coupled with the fact that a great deal of her Pokemon are canines, makes Renamon Serena's perfect partner.
Renamon's innate swiftness and power are a great match for the Absol Serena has in the games and its fox-like appearance is a match to the Braxien she has in the anime. From Renamon, Serena's Digimon partner would follow its standard line and go through Kyubimon, Taomon, and finally Sakuyamon. While the last two forms in this line don't directly correlate with Serena's team, the grace and dignity that the Renamon line holds is a perfect fit for this trainer.
2 🙈 Cynthia - Dorumon
Picking out a partner Digimon for Cynthia is a little more difficult than the other trainers on this list as the Sinnoh Champion's team doesn't have a set typing or theme like Misty or Lance. Because of this, the best way to pick a partner Digimon for her is to match 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the power of Cynthia's team aওnd the aesthtic of her ace, and the Digimon that fits into this is Dorumon.
After progressing to Dorugamon and then DoruGreymon, then Cynthia's final partner would be Dorugoramon. Known as the "Final Enemy", Dorugoramon is a monster in terms of power and appearance making it the perfect match for Cynthia's Garchomp. If anyone could tame such a beast, it would be Cynthia.
1 Ash - Agumon 🍌
It should come as no surprise that Ash would receive 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the unspoken mascot of the Digimon. While a Digimon with control over electricity would be a more fitting match to Pikachu, in terms of personality, Agumon matches Ash much better than any other. Both are stubborn and can be quite reckless, but they're also courageous and determined to do what's right.
Unlike the Agumon given to Leon, Ash's Agumon would digivolve into the classic Greymon, then to MetalGreymon, before stopping at WarGreymon. With this line's connection to the crest of courage, it's the perfect path for a Digimon partnered with Ash. This line also represents Ash's Charizard in both its draconic appearance and fiery disposition.
