HolyAngemon
(HolyAngemon in the original Japanese) is Patamon's natural Ultimate
form. He carries the sword Excalibur, which allows him to open the Gate
of Destiny(Japanese: Heaven's Gate). Although he is classified as an
Ultimate, the extent of his power is equivalent to that of a Mega level
digimon. He is able to fight effectively with inherently evil
virus-type digimon such as Piedmon, and conceivably VenomMyotismon. In
Digimon Adventure-Adventure 02, he is voiced by Dave Mallow (US) and
Miwa Matsumoto (Japan).
HolyAngemon
first appears in the episode 'Piedmon's Last Jest' towards the end of
Digimon Adventure. Piedmon, the last of the Dark Masters, had been able
to turn almost all the DigiDestined children and their Digimon into key
chains (besides T.K & Kari; Mimi was away at the time, so she was
safe also). Patamon digivolved to Angemon and joined the fight, but was
easily defeated by Piedmon. After seeing T.K.'s willingness to never
give up his crest of Hope finally began to glow, and Angemon finally
digivolved into MagnaAngemon. Using the Magna Antidote(Japanese: Holy
Disinfection) ability, MagnaAngemon was able to restore all the
DigiDestined and their Digimon. MagnaAngemon then helped WarGreymon and
MetalGarurumon defeat Piedmon by using the powerful "Gate of Destiny"
attack.
HolyAngemon
makes brief appearances in Digimon Adventure 02. Angemon uses the power
of one of the Destiny Stones to digivolve into MagnaAngemon and fight
the nearly invincible BlackWarGreymon. Despite being only an Ultimate
level Digimon, curiously MagnaAngemon was able to fight evenly with the
Mega level BlackWarGreymon and almost banished him into the Gate of
Destiny (despite the fact Angemon was unable to spar with Ultimates
conceived from Control Spires and his attack had no effect against the
one Paildramon slew). MagnaAngemon's capacity as an Ultimate Digimon is
similar to how his Champion form, Angemon, is strong enough to match or
even overwhelm most Ultimates in Digimon Adventure. MagnaAngemon also
appears during the World Tour Arc where he teams up with Metalgreymon
and Kiwimon to fight Mamemon, BigMamemon, MetalMamemon and Giromon
where Tai and T.K. sent them back to the Digital world. MagnaAngemon
also appears to fight Skullsatamon, but is overwhelmed by the latter's
rapid attacks and relents his power to Imperialdramon, the latter
destroying SkullSatamon upon changing into Fighter Mode. It is
unconfirmed whether Patamon loses the ability to reach his ultimate
form after transferring his power to Imperialdramon, as the last time
he appears is when T.K. helps Patamon digivolve into his three forms:
Angemon, Pegasusmon and MagnaAngemon, where they all attack
Malomyotismon, but then vanish when they cross into the Digital World.
This is either due to the powers of the dimensions to which the
digidestined are sent, or Patamon may still have the ability to reach
the ultimate level (further evidence to support this theory may
possibly be found in the fourth Digimon Movie, where several of the
original Digidestined's partners digivolve to levels that required the
power of a digicore, suggesting the ability remains). He is never seen
in the movies in either series save when Angemon warp digivolves and he
is briefly shown before Seraphimon is complete.
