Pukumon is a Mutant Digimon whose name is derived from the onomatopoeia for swelling (ぷくぷく Pukupuku?), and whose design is derived from the pufferfish (Takifugu rubripes). It is a British Punk Digimon that was born when Britain's strongest hacker caused a mutation in a computer virus in which he had poured all the knowledge he possessed. Although its size is small, it has a rebellious personality that contends for first place even in the Digital World. It can't help picking fights, no matter whether the opponents are stronger or weaker than itself, and settling disputes with fist fights is considered its normal style. Its Metal Head is made from Chrondigizoit.[2]
Digimon Adventure 02: Armor Evolution to the Unknown
Pukumon encountered Boltmon at Ueno Park on Valentines Day, in the guise of a strange figure with weird hair. He was the one who talked Boltmon into causing the chaos at Ginza in order for all the DigiDestined of Tokyo to be in one place so he could destroy them personally. To increase his chances, he brought a Control Spire with him to hinder any Digivolution, except Armor Digivolution. After a mix-up of D-Terminals, Pukumon was sent running after the beating he took from Saggitarimon, Pteramon, Butterflymon, Manbomon, Rinkmon and Bucchiemon.
