Synopsis

After the wild and watery ride on a Trailmon, our heroes found themselves trapped in an underground cavern with a very unhappy Whamon. Unfortunately, Arbormon and Grumblemon had figured out where they were and decided to wage another attack. Grumblemon unleashed an angry horde of Golemon, and it looked like the Digidestined were doomed! Then Whamon blasted Grumblemon, and coughed up a Spirit that he had accidentally munched before he was sucked into the cave. J.P. Beast Spirit Evolved into the mighty Warrior, Metal Kabuterimon, and wiped out the grouchy Grumblemon.

Production notes

This Final TV series originally ran for 64 episodes, and was called "Digimon Tamers." It was set in the "near-future" year of 200X.

"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.
