Attacks

Design
MetalPhantomon is a levitating robotic skeleton whose arms are composed of electricity connecting its hands and shoulders, whose red DigiCore is visible in its rib cage, and whose lower body is a sphere of energy attached to the base of its spine. It wears a black hooded cape with red interior and wields a scythe with energy blades which is adorned with a goat decoration, making it resemble the mythological Grim Reaper.
