Kuwagamon
[[Category:(Ja:) Insect
(En:) Insectoid type]][[Category:Nature Spirits
Wind Guardians family]]
Kuwagamon is an Insectoid Digimon whose name and design are derived from the Saw Stag Beetle (Prosopocoilus inclinatus) (鋸鍬形 Nokogiri-Kuwagata?). It is armed with gigantic pincers on its head. Like Kabuterimon, it has combat abilities that far exceed those of similar species that inhabit File Island. It is protected by its tenacious power and sturdy shell, and in particular, as the power of its pincers is super-powerful, once it clamps an enemy it will squeeze until the opponent's life is extinguished. There is a perfect rivalry between it and the Vaccine-attribute Kabuterimon, and there is only "Conflict" between them.[6]
