[edit] Synopsis

While a mysterious, naive Digimon called Calumon bio-emerges (appears) in the real world, a boy named Takato finds a mysterious blue card. After swiping it through his card reader, it is converted into a D-Power (Digivice). One things leads to another, and he ends up swiping his drawings for a Digimon called Guilmon, creating a digi-egg. After a strange dream involving a Digimon Tamer and her Renamon, and the dismissal from his friends, Kazu and Kenta, of the concept, the egg hatches. He finds his Digimon, Guilmon, but the dinosaur instead plans to attack him, or so it seems.

[edit] Miscellaneous trivia

  • Nearly all of the Tamers (exceptions being Ryo Akiyama, Ai and Mako) and the three main Digimon had appeared in this episode, whether as just glimpses or otherwise
  • The clock at the playground showed the time to be:
    • 8:20 after Takato and Kazu's game at the beginning of the episode
    • 3:38 before it was scrambled by the electricity before Takato's Card Reader EX changed into his Digivice
    • 4:20 while Takato was explaining his dream
    • 4:30 after Kazu and Kenta had run off laughing
  • Strangely, the sketch of Guilmon did not feature his prominent symbol of Hazard.
