The chain is Fresh, In-Training, Rookie, Champion, Ultimate, Mega.ĭNA Digivolution / Jogress: When two Digimon combine to make one Digimon that is way stronger than usual. Each stage of a Digimon's life has a name, and I'll be using (mostly) the western names. For me, a big part of the appeal is not knowing which Digimon I'm going to get when my Digimon Digivolves.

Care Mistakes are the single biggest determinant as to a Digimon's Digivolution results.ĭigivolution: When a Digimon evolves into a higher form. What counts is inconsistent, but things that have counted in the past include leaving too much poop uncleaned, not feeding the Digimon, feeding the Digimon way too much, not training the Digimon, not tucking the Digimon into their cute little bedtime blanket when they're sleepy, not turning off the lights while the Digimon sleeps on the floor, and not curing a Digimon's sickness when they get sick. In Digivices, it's usually the fuel spent to Digivolve for a battle.Ĭare Mistakes: When the player fails to respond to a Digimon V-Pet's needs in time.
