Andromon is an Android Digimon whose name and design are derived from the Android. It was developed at the same time as Boltmon — while Boltmon was created to be more fleshed-based, Andromon was designed to be more mechanical (although it has a fleshy right leg). It is able to defeat weak Ultimate Digimon with a single attack, and is sometimes described as being one of the most powerful Digimon, as its body is a tireless machine capable of taking on many larger Digimon with little to no effort.

Andromon lacks much emotion and usually acts only in accordance with its programming, though certain Andromon have artificial intelligence installed, allowing them to have free will. However, since there are only five known such Andromon, it is unknown whether this was intentional. The technology used to develop Andromon was also used to develop other machine Digimon like Megadramon.

[edit] Digital Monster X-Evolution

Andromon was among the Digimon which met with several X Digimon to discuss Yggdrasil's plans. However it turned out that Andromon was a spy for Yggdrasil and was informing it of all the happenings during the meetings of the Royal Knights. When Omnimon appeared and attacked the X Digimon, Andromon was sure he had made the right decision, but when Omnimon turned around and attacked him and his comrades he realized that WarGreymon X and the other X Digimon were right the whole time. Wargreymon X threw his Dramon Killer at Omnimon in a vain attempt to stop him, but it was repelled by Omnimon's Transcendent Sword. The Dramon Killer ended up impaling Andromon, and he died shortly after, briefly smirking at his once ignorance.
