Shawjamon is a Wizard Digimon. It was banished from the Digital World's heaven. Although it is a calm and collected Digimon, it is said that a certain DigiCore was sealed among the nine beads of its necklace, and if even one bead is lost, it will be transformed once again into a terrifying Digimon. It wields the astonishing super-heavyweight class "Kouyoujou" staff (降妖杖? lit. "Monster Subduing Staff").[5]

- ↑ In the original version of Journey to the West, Sha Wujing's weapon is a rod made of a bay leaf branch on the Moon, named "Xiángyāo Bǎozhàng" (降妖寶杖? lit. "Monster-Subduing Treasured Staff"). It was usually depicted as a Crescent Moon Spade (月牙鏟 Yuèyáchǎn?) in revised editions and related media. In Japanese, these terms are read as "Kouyoujou" (降妖杖?) and "Getsugasan" (月牙産?). Although "Getsugazan" literally means "Moon Fang Slash" (月牙斬 Getsugazan?), it is a pun on "Getsugasan", and is meant to be interpreted as "Crescent Moon Slash" (月牙斬 Yuèyázhǎn?), as if it was in Chinese.
