Shoutmon
[[Category:None[1] level]][[Category:(Ja:) Mini Dragon
(En:) Small Dragon type]]
Shoutmon is a Small Dragon Digimon whose name is derived from the sound of a "shout", and whose design is derived from a musician. It is a ferocious Digimon with extremely high aggressiveness due to its hot-blooded enthusiasm. However, it is friendly towards its comrades, and its friendship with other Digimon, surpassing species, can be deepened even further if they are recognized by Shoutmon. There is a unique feature to Shoutmon's singing that converts its passion to energy, and since Shoutmon won't give up fighting unless its passion disappears, this is the reason Shoutmon is said to be a ferocious Digimon with high aggressiveness. On one hand it seems ferocious, but on the other it is said to love music and songs, and it likes to hum songs with natural sounding background music like the sound of the wind, raindrops, the murmuring of a river, or the stirring of leaves on a tree. Because it can often become too enthusiastic in its song, accidentally letting off its "Soul Crusher" even though there aren't any enemies, it's probably safest to leave the spot at once if Shoutmon starts singing, so that it doesn't notice you. Shoutmon itself is said to have the mysterious trait of always having its MacField-brand mic in its possession, and a Shoutmon without the mic is not really a Shoutmon. It is said that a Shoutmon that has completely lost its mic will rapidly lose power from the shock of not being a Shoutmon anymore, and before long it will have wasted away. Therefore, you should never play a practical joke like hiding the mic. Incidentally, it can wield the mic as in bōjutsu, so it is excellent not only in scuffling matches but also in performances.[4]

Shoutmon + Star Sword
Shoutmon + Star Sword is an Enhancement Digimon whose name and design is derived from "Shoutmon plus Star Sword". It is Starmon and the Pickmons' "Sword-union Mode" (剣結合形態 Kenketsugou Keitai?). The saw-shaped blade is strong and boasts peerless firmness, so that it shreds the opponent when it cuts through them, inflicting massive damage. Because the wounds are completely ragged, it takes time for the opponent to recover from the damage of an ordinary attack, and they incur even greater damage. Also, because the united Pickmon can shift freely, it possesses not only firmness, but also a flexibility that allows it to bend like a willow branch and absorb impacts that are too strong. It can be said that the Star Sword has an appearance which embodies the strong ties of Starmon and the Pickmons' emotional bond.[9]
Digimon Fusion
Attacks
- Sun Sword (Star Blade): Charges the Star Sword with flaming energy and then releases a cutting shock-wave of fire.
Shoutmon + Drill Cannon
Shoutmon + Drill Cannon is an Enhancement Digimon whose name and design are derived from "Shoutmon plus Drill/Dorulu Cannon". It is Dorulumon's "Bombardment Mode" (砲撃形態 Hougeki Keitai?) and greatest Special Move. Because Dorulumon must concentrate on charging the energy, the cooperation of Shoutmon to take charge of sighting is essential in order to hit the target. Furthermore, while charging the energy, Dorulumon's defensive power goes down to zero, leaving it completely defenseless. It becomes absolutely essential at this time to have Shoutmon's aid in guarding it, and it can be said that this bold move can only be used when it has absolute trust in its partner.[11]
Digimon Fusion
Attacks
- Dorulu Cannon: Condenses and fires all the energy that it possesses.
Shoutmon + Supersonic Sparrow
Shoutmon + Supersonic Sparrow is an Enhancement Digimon whose name and design are derived from "Shoutmon plus Jet Sparrow". It is Sparrowmon's "Machspeed-cruiser Mode" (音速巡航形態 Onsokujunkou Keitai?) that acquired even more speed. It possesses tremendous thrust and is able to carry Shoutmon on its back while flying, but if Shoutmon doesn't have a lot of will-power, it will be immediately blown off by the excess wind speed. There is an instrument called a DigiCompressor within its body, which produces thrust by taking in air, super-compressing it, then exhausting it out its aft. This instrument can be used not only for flight but also for offensive techniques.[13]

Attacks
