WarGreymon
is Agumon's Mega form, possessing the "war" prefix due to his offensive
capabilities. He is a humanoid version of Greymon with metal armor
(Chrome Digizoid) encasing his head, shoulders, abdominals and legs. He
is capable of independent flight - the wing-like projections on his
back form his Brave Shield that he removes and uses to block attacks.
WarGreymon has two large clawed gauntlets called Dramon Destroyers
permanently attached to each arm. However, they have been known to
crack occasionally during an intense fight, and on one instance they
even broke completely off (when fighting Diaboromon). He is an
extremely powerful Mega Digimon. In Digimon Adventure-Adventure 02, he
is voiced by Lex Lang (US), and Chika Sakamoto (Japan).
WarGreymon
made his initial appearance in "Prophecy" (along with MetalGarurumon)
in Adventure during the battle with VenomMyotismon, who had infiltrated
the Real World and intended to take it over along with the Digital
World. Tai and Matt (partner to Gabumon, MetalGarurumon's primary form)
allowed themselves to be struck by arrows from Angewomon (the Ultimate
form of Gatomon, Kari Kamiya's partner) and Angemon (Patamon's
Champion) in accordance with an ancient prophecy. Tai and Matt remained
unharmed; the shot arrows gave Agumon and Gabumon the necessary energy
to Warp Digivolve to Mega and destroy VenomMyotismon.
When
the Dark Masters Digimon took over the Digital World, WarGreymon fought
and destroyed the first and third members that attacked the
DigiDestined, MetalSeadramon and Machinedramon and with
MetalGarurumon's and MagnaAngemon's help defeated the final Dark
Master, Piedmon. WarGreymon was one of the Digidestined's primary
fighters and often looked to as the one of the leaders of the group,
often leading the digiteam in attack formation.
In
Digimon Adventure 02 WarGreymon appeared twice in the series, the first
time was to battle his doppelgänger and the series' anti-hero Digimon
BlackWarGreymon. The fight was a dead heat until Imperialdramon Fighter
Mode intervened.
