Espimon

Profile Name & Etymology Debut Digimon Reference Book Anime & Manga Video Games ⇨ Japanese A Cyborg Digimon that immediately flies in to investigate whenever it catches wind of gossip and suspicion flowing into the Digital World. It will bravely infiltrate places in order to find out the truth, even if they are inhabited by dangerous Digimon. When it switches its eyes to Search Mode, it is able to clearly see objects several kilometers away. Also, it activates its "Divanish", which applies an optical camouflage to its body, by pressing the switch on its abdomen, and blends in with its surroundings, allowing it to perform reconnaissance without being discovered. Its Signature Move is the self-propulsive, timed "Mot Bomb", which it uses depending on the situation, such as attacking the enemy or making a decoy. Rumor has it that the Crack Team measures their cracking ability by controlling Espimon, but it is unclear whether this is true or not.

Live Action

Digimon Project 2021

In "For a rematch：ESPIMON is here!", a new Tamer and his Partner, Espimon, walked towards a Gammamon hologram. The Tamer then clicked on his Vital Bracelet Digivice-V-, which caused a Raid Boss Battle Replay to start, specifically that of the Mugendramon Raid Boss, creating holograms of both Mugendramon itself and all the Digimon that fought it. The Tamer put on his headphones and both ran towards the Mugendramon hologram. Espimon turned its eyes to Search Mode, giving it information on the Digimon around it, while the Tamer stopped in fear as he almost crashed into a Bulkmon hologram. He then looked around, trying to find Espimon, who then made itself visible and flew around, dodging his Tamer's attempts at grabbing it. They then both ran together again towards the Mugendramon hologram, which disappeared as Espimon flew through it, causing the replay to end. All the other holograms soon disappeared as well, except those of Gammamon, Angoramon and Jellymon, who had a LOSE sign over them. Those three disappeared too after the Tamer touched Gammamon's hologram. The Tamer's Vital Bracelet Digivice-V- then reacted, showing that a Raid Boss Battle Rematch was about to start. It asked him to join, showing the Raid Boss Battle was between Gammamon and Mugendramon. The Tamer and Espimon looked at each other and nodded in approval, then he clicked the YES button in the hologram projected by the Vital Bracelet Digivice-V-, which turned from red to green and opened a portal, through which the duo found themselves facing a Mugendramon which roared at them. Gammamon then arrived, and the three prepared to fight.

Manga

Digimon Dreamers

Espimon first appeared in "Steal Pulsemon!". He was spying on Pulsemon while invisible, though Pulsemon could sense that someone was observing him. His invisibility eventually wore off due to him being tempted by the Asunaro Meat's smell, which made Pulsemon think he was after it, but Bokomon explained that he was a spy. He tried to hide that he was the one observing Pulsemon, though he was really bad at it. Regardless, Pulsemon decided to give him all the information he wanted as he thought of himself as a celebrity due to someone being interested in him. Espimon took note of what Pulsemon told him, but twisted his words, which Kodou Ritsu called him out on, comparing him to a celebrity reporter, though he justified it because he wanted to make the information sound more catchy, which only convinced Ritsu, Patamon and Bokomon that he was in fact a celebrity reporter. This made Espimon confess his true intentions as a spy, to gain information on Localized Evolution which he could sell to Dr. Vademon and his research on Super Chimairamon for a high price. This convinced Pulsemon to seek Dr. Vademon himself so he could get the money for his information, which made Espimon decide that he'd catch Pulsemon alive and carry him to Dr. Vademon instead. Pulsemon attempted to charge through him with his Electric Rush, but Espimon easily avoided him and shot a Mot Bomb at him. Pulsemon thought he dodged it, but the bomb changed dimensions mid-flight to follow him, so Pulsemon blew it up with a Petit Impulse instead. This stopped the bomb, but Pulsemon was nonetheless damaged by the explosion, making Ritsu realize that Espimon may be more than they could handle.

Novel

Digimon Seekers

Espimon are popular Digimon among the Crack Team, as Cyborg Digimon work well with tools and therefore are a good choice for beginners.

In "1-5: Eiji：Wolf of ninth avenue", four Espimon used by Crack Team members that were high school students to obtain Digitama in the Last Coast to sell them for money appeared. All of them were "bots", automatically controlled by tools. They were, however, surrounded by the Digipolice's Commandramon squads, led by Tamahime Satsuki, which were camouflaged until they showed themselves. The only Digitama they had obtained was quickly seized by them, as were their tools and everything else they had. After Satsuki's Numemon rose from underwater, the Espimon used Divanish to become invisible, evading the Commandramon's attacks thanks to the Digimon A.I. 's built-in self-defense function rather than any cracker's ability. To counter that, Satsuki had two Mechanorimon show themselves, as their powerful detectors, sensors, and other electronic warfare equipment could perceive where the camouflaged Espimon were. With a Twinkle Beam, one of the Mechanorimon managed to hit an Espimon, disabling its Divanish, causing the rest to run away, though they were all swiftly taken down anyways by the newly-arrived Pulsemon's Petit Impulse.
