Kudamon is a protagonist in Digimon Data Squad. He is Richard Sampson's partner, but also one of King Drasil's Royal Knights.

PersonalityEdit

Kudamon is a calm and collected fellow who carries out precise assessments of things and can progress through battle with superiority and smugness. It is said that he accumulates holy power in his left earring every day, intending to use the energy to digivolve eventually.

AppearanceEdit

Though being based on a fox, Kudamon generally resembles a white ferret or weasel. He has small forelimbs, golden markings, a bell at the end of his tail, and a Holy Ring for a collar.

DescriptionEdit

Kudamon is Commander Richard Sampson's partner, not only fighting alongside him, but also advising him on Digimon-related issues and assisting in the running of DATS. In times of danger Kudamon can digivolve to Reppamon, Chirinmon, or his Royal Knight form, Kentaurosmon.

Kudamon had been sent by King Drasil to keep an eye on the humans while undercover. However, as time passed, Kudamon grew fond of the humans and could not accept King Drasil's orders to exterminate them. He exposed his identity to Gallantmon and fought him to protect the DATS crew, their battle ending in a draw and leaving their fates unknown when they disappeared in Kentaurosmon's attack. Gallantmon and Kentaurosmon are seen falling into a deep trench, but Gallantmon eventually returns holding an unconscious Kudamon, explaining that Kentaurosmon told him why he sided with the humans and set him free. Kudamon later reunites with Sampson, but the meeting is cut short when he decides to return to the Digital World with the other Digimon.

Attacks

• Zekkoushou (絶光衝, Zekkoushou^? lit "Blinding Ray"): Blinds the opponent with a great radiance emitted from its earring.

Other formsEdit

The name "Kudamon" refers only to the Rookie form of this Digimon. Throughout the series, Kudamon gains the ability to digivolve into a number of more powerful forms, each with a different name and special attack. However, the Rookie level is his preferred form and the one he spends most of his time in.

ReppamonEdit Reppamon is Kudamon's Champion form. Reppamon is a brown fox with dark brown front paws and hind legs, black claws, an yin-yang symbol on the thighs, and blue blade for a tail, with three red marks and a red eye on each side of it. He wears a white kitsune mask with three black marks on the front, two red zigzag-shaped marks in place of eyes, and red borders for ears. The mask has long white hair and two light blue cloth bands coming out of it. Reppamon shows up to take out the cars slowing down the vehicle the DATS members are in and degenerates to Kudamon while jumping to Richard Sampson's shoulder. The Beginning of the End!
