Synopsis
Tai and the others search for Matt, who's mysteriously walked out on the group. Matt is uncertain of his role in the group and is frustrated that the others are getting stronger and more confident. Cherrymon, a sinister and clever tree-like Digimon finds Matt in this vulnerable condition and convinces him that he must defeat Tai if he's ever to fulfill his potential. Meanwhile, Puppetmon and his nasty henchmen, the Garbagemon, attack the others. They have their hands full until Matt and MetalGarurumon suddenly appear and ice the last of their attackers. Then, to the others' amazement, MetalGarurumon turns on Tai's Digimon, Agumon and challenges him to a fight.

Production notes
Garbagemon and Cherrymon- the sinister forest protector- are introduced.
This TV series originally ran for 54 episodes.
"Digimon" refers to "digi[tal] mon[sters]."
Three 25-minute mini-features were released theatrically in 2000 as holiday specials in Japan. These were combined for release in the United States as the "Digimon Movie." The Screen Actors Guild in the U.S. launched a legal challenge to production company Saban over residual rights for the movie, arguing that voice acting was a skill that deserved better working conditions.
Afterward, a second season was named "Digimon 02" and ran for 50 20-minute episodes. Set three years later, it introduced the character Buimon.
"Digimon Tamers," a third series, started in April 2001. It was set in the "near-future" year of 200X.
