Arukenimon is a Dark Animal Digimon. A Dark Animal Digimon which has the appearance of the "Queen of Spiders" of Greek mythology. As the queen who presides over all Dokugumon, it is an extremely cunning Digimon with great intelligence. It is skilled at transforming into a human-like appearance, getting the opponent to let down their guard so that it can approach and completely devour them. Also, because of its extremely short temper and ferocious personality, many Digimon are afraid of it.[2]

- Predation Spider: Attacks the opponent with the countless carnivorous Dokugumon hidden in its abdomen.
- Acid Mist: Sprays green acid from its mouth.
