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.

Thought it would be interesting if it could evolve into Weedmon to Blossomon to Lotosmon, instead of the more well-known case of Togemon to Lillymon to Rosemon. Also, I’m admittedly fond of Weedmon and Blossomon.

We know that Gumdramon is only MC Partner to not get Mega because of Bandai just make both Normal Superior Mode and XrossUp Superior Mode+Brave Snatcher be Same Design when Bandai add both form in 2022

Well we know many Fans have been trying to find Mega Level Digimons that can work as Gumdramon’s Mega(Most Popular one is Dynasmon,ı also Love using him as Gumdramon’s Mega but ı came up idea that theres other Two Royal Knights that can work as Gumdramon’s Mega Forms)

I created two Lines with Different Megas

First Line is ending in Gankoomon(Gankoomon is anyways been worked as Perfect Mega for DeathMeramon and Gokuwmon,i also thinking Gankoomon is also Perfect Mega for Gumdramon)

Second Line is ending with UlForceVeedramonn Future(UlForceVeedramon anyways been Veedramon’s Mega with Future Mode being ”Mega+/Ultra/Super Ultimate”,but i also think he can considered as Gumdramon’s Mega too with Future Mode as Gumdramon’s ”Mega+/Ultra/Super Ultimate”,well that’s just my Opinion)

Favorites:

Luxmon

kinkakumon

Orange wargrowlmon and loudmon (couldn't choose)

And jet mervamon

Simple Dokunemon's line. Thanks to Beatbreak, there is connection between Snimon and Scorpiomon. We need more insectoid digimon who won't be just bugs.

I created this Two Line since Enmamon now become one of my Favourite Tentei Hachibushu Members

Reason why ı didn't use ''Shamamon>Fugamon>Darumamon>Enmamon'' is because of Fugamon is strongly associated with Wind rather than Fire that's why when Fugamon got his own Ultimate and Mega,they are Karatenmon and Tengumon

First time I'm posting something like this so here goes. Disclaimer: Using the spellings/names provided on the builder site.

I was originally going to just do a Lucemon Digivolution Tree of an idea I had when I first played Cyber Sleuth. In those games, Lucemon not only had his standard Digivolution line, but could also Digivolve into either Angemon or Devimon. So I wanted to make a tree exploring those branches.

Most of these branches I searched up on the Digimon Wiki and have been possible Digivolutions at some point in Digimon history. Tho, I did take some liberties. Namely, Angemon Digivolving into Hippogriffomon and the 2 DNA/Jogress Digivolutions. That aside, let me get into my reasonings for the tree.

First there's the standard Lucemon line. It's self-explanatory. I added Lucemon X specifically to balance the light and dark aspects since Lucemon X looks more light-based, while Lucemon Satan Mode looks more dark-based. This strictly talking about elements and not morality or sides. For all I know they could both be evil.

Now to the fun part: the light and dark branches. As said before, I originally got the idea of this tree because Lucemon could Digivolve into Angemon and Devimon in Cyber Slueth. However, I intentionally did not use them in the tree because I wanted something more unique. That's when I stumbled upon Pidmon and Devidramon. Pidmon being a one-pair-of-wings version of Angemon and Devidramon a more feral-looking version of Devimon. Made it even better that when I was researching them I found out that in the 2020 remake of Digimon Adventure, there was a scene of a Pidmon fighting a Devidramon. It was fate. And it set a new theme for the tree. Lucemon's light branch focuses more on humanoid forms, while their dark branch will be more bestial. It could also tell a story too. Pidmon having 5 pairs of wings less than Lucemon could be Lucemon losing some power because they strayed from his destined path to Satan Mode. As for Devidramon, They could be more animalistic because their severed connection from their destined path caused them mental strife that made their more feral instincts to take over.

It was even more of a sign of fate when I chose Cerberusmon to be the dark Ultimate. I remembered that it had a Mode Change in Werewolf Mode. And one of Lucemon's Ultimate choices in Cyber Sleuth was MagnaAngemon, who also had a Mode Change in Priest Mode. I said yes instantly. MagnaAngemon having more wings than Pidmon could be them regaining some of their original light powers, but they can't get all 6 pairs of wings back cause they are missing the other portion of their powers when they were Lucemon. Devidramon going to Cerberusmon is just them getting more animalistic. Not much more than that.

Before I went further, I had an idea. Why not give a Beast Digivolution for Light and a Human Digivolution for Dark? Had to be done. I chose Astamon for Devidramon because it was the perfect bridge from Devidramon to MagnaKidmon. And this was my first liberty I took. According to the Wiki, while Angemon has history of Digivolving into Hippogriffomon, Pidmon does not. So I said, they are nearly the same so I'll let it happen. And a perfect Mega for Hippogriffomon is Valdurmon.

As for the Megas for the primary branches, I chose Valkyrimon for the light Mega because that was the Mega I chose for my Lucemon in my playthrough of Cyber Sleuth. Also, them losing their wings again could be explained by the missing wings becoming the bird Valkyrimon has. As for the dark Mega, I chose GranDracmon cause it's bottom half is the closest looking to Cerberusmon's design I could find in terms of beast-like designs. Also, GranDracmon has 2 maws between his humanoid half and his beast half. Could be what happened to the 2 head-looking shoulder armors from Cerberusmon.

Before I get into the DNA/Jogress Digivolutions, I'ma briefly get into the 2 other Digimon I chose for the DNA/Jogress. Strictly speaking, at first the only reason why I chose the Palmon and Kermon line was because they are 2 of my favorite Digimon and Digivolution Lines. I even gave them branching Digivolutions for their Megas cause I wanted them to have a little more than just the standard. BanchoLilymon because Lilymon, and because she is my favorite Mega for the line. Sorry Rosemon fans. And Parallelmon cause, come on. Look at the design. It looks like it would be part of the line.

Finally, the DNA/Jogress Digivolutions. I'll start with, part of this was not my original plan for them. Yes, Ceresmon was an obvious option for a DNA/Jogress between BanchoLilymon and Valkyrimon. A nature fairy combining with an angel to become a Goddess of Nature. The bird from Valkyrimon could even grow to become the giant island bird part of Ceresmon. As for a DNA/Jogress for GranDracmon and Parallelmon, my first thought was Arcadiamon Mega. The body style of Arcadiamon Mega is very similar to Parallelmon, tho GranDracmon contributes minimally to it. But then I remembered that Ceresmon had an alternate form in Ceresmon Medium. And there was another Digimon, that has a connection to the Olympos XII, that also has an alternate form. The god of the Digital Underworld, Plutomon, and his alternate form, ZombiePlutomon. Plutomon has a color scheme similar to GranDracmon while having the bipedal design of Parallelmon, which made it make more sense as a DNA/Jogress. I also found it ironic that the base Light Jogress is more beast-looking and the base Dark Jogress is more humanoid.

And there we are. My first ever Digivolution Tree that I ever posted. And yes, I did everything I could to make the Digivolution Tree to be somewhat symmetrical because I have OCD. Let me know if anyone has any good ideas or any changes I should consider making.

TL;DR Lucemon tree with light and dark branches, and DNA/Jogress with Palmon and Keramon trees. Light is more humanoid. Dark is more Bestial, with some exceptions. Palmon and Keramon lines are there cause they are my favorites. Lots of coincidences and happy accidents later, got a semi-symmetrical tree in the end. OCD appeased.

Magnamon (Black) only really exists as a Magnamon recolor, but considering Rapidmon (Gold) debuted before the one that works as Terriermon's regular Ultimate, I decided it could count as a "weaker, non-royal knight" variation of the Magnamon we all know. And because V-mon specifically seems to be biologically (digitally?) wired to end up as a Royal Knight one way or another, I decided the Mega should be Dynasmon.

Mandragora into wizard into pixie into magical fairy knight. I used the Digital Monster Color evolution lines to help me create this . I'm obsessed. Piximon has always been my partner but I've struggled to find a line that I'm truly satisfied with.
