Arresterdramon Superior Mode is a Dragon Digimon. It is Arresterdramon's "Enhancement Mode" (の強化モード No Kyōka Mōdo?), which gained further power due to the "Kinkoji" (緊箍児? lit. "Tight-bound Child") that appeared when it wished to become stronger. In addition to its large wings, which have increased its flying ability, and the gigantic Tail Anchor, which has been honed to its sharpest, it is a form characterized by its right arm, thought to be that of Bagramon, which bestowed mighty destructive power upon Arresterdramon. Usually, the Kinkoji has the role of inhibiting its power, but it appears to have the opposite role of granting it power, and is said to be proof that Arresterdramon Superior Mode is recognized as a Digimon that uses its power for righteousness. With this drastically increased power, it fights against fiendish Digimon.[5]

Design[]
Arresterdramon Superior Mode is a tall, bipedal dragon with purple scales, blue eyes, a long tail, and a pair of large yellow wings. It has a red rubbery armor with a golden chest covering its torso and wings. It now wears black leather pants with silver guards and black straps on the side as well as orange armor acting as ankle guards. The end of its tail is equipped with a pole arm-like anchor consisting of two blades pointing downward from the spike on its tip. It has two horns on the top of its head and a long horn on its nose.
In Digimon Fusion, the feet were identical to Arresterdramon, the ends of the gloves' fingers were exposed, and the armor retained the same color and design, whereas its Bandai art depicts it with skeletal arms, spikes on its shoulders, gold chest armor, and skeletal feet like Arresterdramon Superior Mode (Brave Snatcher).
