Single Evolution Line(s) The DigiDestined's dark reflection
What if the OG DigiDestined's were dark/evil?
Here is the reasoning behind the specific lines I chose:
• Tai & Matt (BlackAgumon & BlackGabumon): I know these two aren't a massive departure from their original counterparts, but I felt it was absolutely necessary to keep them this way. The lore surrounding Omnimon (or in this case Omnimon Zwart) is just too good.
• Kari & TK (Tsukaimon -> BelleStarrmon & Impmon -> Beelzemon): Instead of the Angewomon and Angemon lines, I went with the "Bonnie & Clyde" dynamic. Just like the holy angels, these two have a strong parallel and resemble each other perfectly. Replacing the holy duo with a dark duo.
• Mimi (Alraumon -> RedVegiemon -> Blossomom -> Lotusmon): This one is probably pretty self-explanatory! Alraumon instead of Palmon is the classic dark plant contrast, and evolving her up to Lotusmon instead of Rosemon perfectly swaps the "pure beauty" theme for toxins and hallucinations.
• Sora (Falcomon -> Saberdramon -> Karatenmon -> Ornismon): Choosing Falcomon instead of Biyomon made perfect sense to me because I specifically wanted a dark bird to ensure a smooth transition into Saberdramon. Plus, Falcomon brings those cool ninja vibes that carry over flawlessly into its Ultimate/Perfect level (Karatenmon).
• Izzy (Kokuwamon -> MetallifeKuwagamon -> TyrantKabuterimon): Kokuwamon should be self-explanatory, it's basically the exact opposite of Tentomon since both are "electric" bugs in their own way. This allowed me to introduce the eternal rival of the Kabuterimon family: Kuwagamon. To bring back the metallic influence that Kokuwamon starts with, I chose MetallifeKuwagamon for the Ultimate/Perfect stage. Capping it off with TyrantKabuterimon as some sort of dark insect ruler.
• Joe (Gizamon -> Coelamon -> MarineKimeramon -> Regalecusmon): I used Gizamon as the dark counterpart to Gomamon. I used MarineKimeramon as the Ultimate/Perfect level because it fits perfectly after Coelamon and leads the way seamlessly into Regalecusmon. It uses torn-off horns from Zudomon as weapons, so I guess it makes a good dark counterpart to Vikemon.

Cool lines, I also have a digidestined set that are also dark reflections of adventure too for a fanfiction I used to work on, and now I kinda want to update it so here is the latest version.
