Myotismon

"Farewell, Digidoomed!"

- Myotismon taunting the Digidestined.

Myotismon (known as Vamdemon in the Japanese version) is the third main antagonist for most of the half in the Digimon Adventure. He is presumably the most evil of all the evil Digimon and if one were to be picky, one could say Myotismon is the Big Bad of the entire Digimon Adventure. He is the final antagonist in Digimon Adventure 02. He also reappeared in the videogame Digimon World Data Squad and in the anime Digimon Fusion (season 3). In Digimon Fusion, NeoMyotismon is one of the major antagonists in Season 2 of Digimon Fusion and one of the Dark Generals.

Myotismon
Myotismon is an Ultimate Level Digimon. His appearance is of a vampire, with pale blue skin, gold hair and a red, bat-like eye mask. He is also dressed elegantly as a gentleman and also has a red vampire-like cape.

It seems that whenever he is destroyed, his shadowy spirit form will return and can be revived in a stronger Digivolved form through certain procedures. The only way to finish him off for good is to destroy his shadow form.

MaloMyotismon
MaloMyotismon is a Mega Level Digimon that resembles a mechanical, demonic vampire. He has Myotismon's original head with a modified mask, has 2 extra mouths, one on each shoulder, a tail with a sharp end and mechanical wings that can shoot out a deadly mist.

VenomMyotismon
VenomMyotismon is a Mega Level Digimon. He is a presumably a 30–40 foot tall monster that looks like a combination between a vampire and a demon. He has 6 bat wings, extremely long arms, Myotismon's face, two horns on his head, yellow eyes and hair and a hidden face inside his abdomen.

NeoMyotismon
NeoMyotismon is an Unknown Level Digimon that resembles a vampire with sharp edges all over him. He also as alternative forms.

As NeoMyotismon Darkness Mode
NeoMyotismon DigiFused with some of his Devimon and LadyDevimon soldiers to assume Demon Mode. In this form, NeoMyotismon grows in size and gains Devimon-type wings and his markings are modified; skull markings are added to his shoulders and the silver wing-shaped stripes become red.

NoeVamdemon also manage to absorb MetalGreymon and became NeoMyotismon Darkness Mode (MetalGreymon). He also manage to absorb Shoutmon to become more powerful but was imcomplete, because he accidentally absorbed Lopmon.

Digimon Adventure 01
After Etemon was defeated, Myotismon emerged as the third main villain of Season 1. There, he sent his pathetic servant, DemiDevimon, to try and defeat the Digidestined, but each of his plans failed. He tried to find the eighth Digidestined and take over both the Digital World and the real world. He and his servants departed from his Castle in the Digital World and entered the real world, but one Digimon, Wizardmon, who was only pretending to be following Myotismon, attempts to get the tag and crest for the eighth digidestined and double-crossing him along with Gatomon. Myotismon had his bats throw him into the ocean. Gatomon, initially one of Myotismon's servants, remembers that he enslaved her while she was searching for the eighth Digidestined as Salamon.

Often Myotismon would bite people and suck their blood, as vampires do. Also he would only come out at night, as he is weaker during the day.Myotismon put up a fog barrier and captured all the inhabitants of the city. The Digidestined fought against him and his many minions. It soon became revealed to the Digidestined that Tai's sister Kari was the eighth Digidestined all along. TK and Joe find Wizardmon and soon a battle begins between the Digidestined and Myotismon. Myotismon appears to be more powerful than the others, with only Angemon able to damage him. Myotismon shoots an energy wave at Kari and Gatomon, but Wizardmon jumps in front of them and is killed by the blast.

Upon his death, Kari gets her Digivice back from DemiDevimon, allowing Gatomon to Digivolve into her Ultimate form, Angewomon and hit Myotismon with a Celestial Arrow, killing him.

After Myotismon was defeated by the DigiDestined, they thought it would be over. However, everyone didn't believe that Myotismon's spirit lives on and his fog was still around. Gennai then told the prophecy about the king of the undead. Bats would blanket the sky in darkness, the fallen would chant the king's name and at the stroke of the hour of the beast, the king's true form would appear. DemiDevimon used Myotismon’s bats to resurrect his master by collecting the data of his defeated henchmen.

Everything that Gennai mentioned started to happen and soon, Myotismon was reborn as VenomMyotismon. He has an insatiable hunger, at one point devouring his own servant, DemiDevimon. MetalGreymon and WereGarurumon both attacked VenomMyotismon, but the giant monster easily wiped them out. Angemon and Angewomon distracted VenomMyotismon while Izzy plans a miracle. He is the first Mega Digimon to be introduced in the series and it's because of his appearance that the DigiDestined learn about the Mega level.

Though he is much more powerful than Myotismon, he is also much less intelligent. He is quick to anger and is solely motivated by his desire to devour life. The only thing he retains from Myotismon being a strong hatred of the Digidestined. When WarGreymon tunneled though VenomMyotismon's abdomen, his true form, "The Beast Within" reveals himself. He is defeated when they clog his true body with a water tower and WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon combine their attacks, which obliterated him.

Digimon Adventure 02
He returns in season 2 as the main antagonist.

It's revealed that Myotismon’s spirit once again continues to live on and discovers that Oikawa requests to go to the Digital World. He possessed Oikawa and took control of his body in order to grant his wish.

After Oikawa grieves of not going to the Digital World and instead enters the World Of Dreams, Myotismon’s mouth appears, speaking with Oikawa, telling him that he'll never see the Digital World again, even in his dreams. Gatomon senses Myotismon’s voice, revealing to the Digidestined it was Myotismon all along. After Oikawa realizes that the evil Digimon took control of his body all the time for three decades, Myotismon exits Oikawa’s body and takes the form of an Oikawa duplicate, thus leaving Oikawa weakened, then feeds on the Dark Flowers from the Dark Spore children while Arukenimon and Mummymon attack the Digidestined. After Myotismon completes his hunger, he transforms into his reincarnated form, MaloMyotismon. After he tortured Arukenimon and killed both her and Mummymon, the Digidestined were scared to fight him, but Davis wouldn't give up and told the others that they must fight for courage.

ExVeemon attacks MaloMyotismon, but then all of a sudden was interrupted when MaloMyotismon banished the Digidestined sans Davis into several illusion dimensions, causing them and their Digimon partners to be separated. Luckily, Davis and their Digimon partners were able to reunite them, noting the illusions weren't real. When Davis, Ken and the others returned from the illusions, they summond all of their Digimon's forms then launched an assault on MaloMyotismon, which opened a hole to the Digital World, presumably destroying MaloMyotismon. However, MaloMyotismon survived and thanked the Digidestined for bringing him to the Digital World, and attacks Imperialdramon, Silphymon, and Shakkoumon, knocking them down easily.

MaloMyotismon unleashed his power of darkness to open up the gate to the Real World. Suddenly, several Digimon gathered around to call help to their human partners from all around the world, while MaloMyotismon tries to drive them away with his Screaming Darkness attack. Suddenly the human partners were summoned to the Digital World with the light, blinding MaloMyotismon. All of a sudden, the cloud of darkness returned to let MaloMyotismon get stronger, but Davis, Yolei and the kids (who were free from the Dark Spores) shared their onslaught of dreams and light (and didn't feel doubt no more) which the latter destroyed MaloMyotismon's body, revealing himself as a form of a black cloud of darkness. All the Digidestined used their Digivices to create Imperialdramon's ultimate weapon, the Giga Crusher and destroys Myotismon for good.

After Myotismon was defeated, a badly weakened Oikawa finally sees the Digital World, and apologizes to the Digidestined fof his previous actions, then sacrifices himself to restore the damaged Digital World.

Digimon World Data Squad
When Bakemon was defeated, he digivolved into Myotismon for a round 2. The DATS defeated Myotismon and was reverted into Digi-Egg.

To obtain MaloMyotismon, one must DNA Digivolve a Myotismon and Shadramon with the component Digimon being at least level 68 and have 470 of Spirit or more and have Arukenimon in the party.

Digimon Fusion
NeoMyotismon is a member of the evil Dark Generals that rules the Midnight Zone, where it was once a peaceful Lopmon village.

Mikey and Nene (disguised as LedyDevimons and Cutemon disguised as Lopmon) manage to enter NeoMyotismon’s castle. While confronted, NeoMyotismon stole Mikey’s Fusion Loader, but Lopmon quickly gives it back to Mikey. He easily defeats Shoutmon X5 with his Nightmare Leeches attack. During the battle, NeoMyotismon absorbs MetalGreymon to go assume his Darkness Mode, much to Christopher’s horror.

Shoutmon manages to enter NeoMyotismon’s body to rescue MetalGreymon, convincing to never give up, though MetalGreymon feels doubtful. Shoutmon risks his life to rescue MetalGreymon and fuse into Shoutmon DX, but with the cost of Lopmon’s life and the other Lopmons’ lives as well. Shoutmon DX manages to free himself from NeoMyotismon, but NeoMyotismon reverts back to his original Darkness Mode. Angered, NeoMyotismon attacks Shoutmon DX, but Shoutmon DX immediately strikes NeoMyotismon. NeoMyotismon tries to regenerate, but the horrified vampire is now unable to regenerate, thus losing his immortality. Shoutmon DX explains that he selfishly absorbed the Lopmon’s data to make himself immortal. NeoMyotismon attempts to devour Shoutmon DX to gain back his immortality, but Shoutmon DX finally manages to kill NeoMyotismon, and his remaining spirit was crushed by Beelzemon, ending his reign of terror.

In Prison Land, NeoMyotismon’s soul with the other Dark Generals attacked Mikey, but he manages to escape with the help of Apollomon. NeoMyotismon’s body was disintegrated into nothingness after GrandGeneramon was destroyed by Shoutmon X7.

Digimon Fusion (season 3)
Quartzmon created copied replicas of Myotismon and his other forms, too. They are all defeated by the Fusion Fighters as well as the Digidestined from the past seasons.

Digimon World Dawn & Dusk

 * Pandemonium: Emits a thick fog of darkness in the environment which confuses the opponent.
 * Black Rain: Leaps into the sky and spins around, releasing a spinning column of small dark orbs from his cape.

 * Doom Cannon (Gardiac Raid in Japanese): Collects dark energy, then fires it off once the moon on its chest is full. Although the opponent sees the flash of a beam of light from ahead of everything in its surroundings being changed to darkness, that light isn't hope but the light of demise.

Familiar Bats
Familiar Bats (in Japanese: 使い魔のコウモリ, Tsukaima no Koumori), also sometimes referred to as Night Raiders (in Japanese: ナイトライダー, Naitoraidā) are a very dangerous species of digital organism that resemble small pitch-black or dark-brown colored bats, usually with each red letter of the on each of their foreheads and they also almost or completely resembled the infamous Mark of Evil, the recurring evil symbol in the Digimon universe which is also seen engraved on Myotismon's faux-Victorian coach carriage and on the frontal lid of his iconic coffin.

They are tamed by the cruel Myotismon and they loyally served as his pets. They tormented the bat-like Digimon DemiDevimon for failing his lord Myotismon numerous times. They can be used in attacks (such as Myotismon's Grisly Wing technique and even possibly LadyDevimon's Darkness Wave attack move) and they often linger around dark Digimon.

Some can also possess venom to cause temporary blindness upon their prey as they did to Zeromaru, the Digimon partner of Yagami Taichi (Taichi "Tai" Kamiya's V-Tamer counterpart) in Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01.

The Familiar Bats are possibly all extinct after they sacrificed themselves and the defeated bodies of Myotismon's other Digimon minions in order to transfer all that mass life energy onto the late Myotismon's bewitched bad-shaped eye mask along with his shadowy spirit connected to and to ultimately unleash VenomMyotismon due to themselves being part of an odd primitive prophecy from the Digital World concerning Myotismon's return from the dead. They never seen again after; except flashbacks with their master.

Part 1
"Ah, darkness, the perfect cloak for my evil, ideal conditions for producing fear. Human blood always tastes better with a dash of fear in it."

- Myotismon

"Perhaps your brain is too small for this job."

- Myotismon, to DemiDevimon.

"These DigiDestined are making me feel a little batty."

- Myotismon

"If you fail me again, my bats will have a new chew toy. You!"

- Myotismon, to DemiDevimon.

"I went out to have a bite to eat and to get familiar with the city. It is always so difficult to get a good meal when one is away from home."

- Myotismon

"You DigiDestined think you're so smart, but in reality, I'm always one step ahead of you."

- Myotismon

"Soon, now. Not in fire or ice, but in fog, this world will be mine!"

- Myotismon

"Hahahahaha... You foolish DigiDestined. The seven of you are no match for my power. Prepare for your ultimate destruction! AHAHAHAHAHA!"

- Myotismon, to the DigiDestined.

"There's certainly no need to tell them that they won't be sharing in the rewards. I hold all the cards and they are no longer a mystery now. All I need to do is to find the DigiDestined eighth child."

- Myotismon

"I shall now be embarking on a journey to another world. There are forces which must be neutralized before our victory here can be complete. But never fear, I shall return in triumph."

- Myotismon

"It's time to stand back and watch me work my magic. Open the gate to my destiny!"

- Myotismon

"Meanwhile, we are not the only ones looking for him, are we? You dolt! Make sure that those children don't find him first!"

- Myotismon, to DemiDevimon, about the eighth DigiDestined child.

"Losers! Failures! Instead of causing pain and havoc, I find you here, eating ice cream!"

- Myotismon, to Pumpkinmon and Gotsumon.

"Yes, I can imagine. You had your chance. I'm condemning you to my dungeon in the Digital World. Grisly Wing!"

- Myotismon before comdemning Pumpkinmon and Gotsumon.

"Well, that wasn't very difficult. Now it's your turn."

- Myotismon before proceeding to attack Matt and T.K.

"Angemon... They must be desperate if they sent you."

- Myotismon, to Angemon.

"I hope you like fishing, Gatomon, because you are going to be the bait to lure the eighth DigiDestined child. Now, I do not need the crest to find the cowardly, puny human."

- Myotismon, to Gatomon.

"We'll start by separating the children from their parents. Ah, how they'll scream and weep. Delicious."

- Myotismon

"Do you expect to beat me with geraniums? Nightmare Claw!"

- Myotismon, to Lillymon.

"Beware, Gatomon. If you lie to me, I will simply destroy them all."

- Myotismon, to Gatomon.

Part 2
"Are you done? I'm bored. It's time to finish you off."

- Myotismon

"Actually, I was going to ask you the same question."

- Myotismon before attempting on Kari and Gatomon's lives with Grisly Wing.

"Next time, don't get in my way."

- Myotismon, to Wizardmon, after his Grisly Wing he attempted to use on Kari and Gatomon landed the fatal blow on him instead.

"Not her! No!"

- Myotismon as he witnesses Kari activating her Crest of Light.

"I don't have to explain myself to the likes of you. It is my destiny to plunge this world into darkness and become king of the Digital World and no Angel or Digimon has the power to stop me!"

- Myotismon, after Angewomon asks him if he has ever shown any regrets for his evil deeds.

"No, don't!"

- Myotismon's last words before being destroyed by Angewomon's Celestial Arrow attack.

"I shall enjoy devouring you. Angelfood is my favorite!"

- VenomMyotismon, to Angemon and Angewomon

"Now, to devour all you so-called DigiDestined. You've stood in my way for the last time!"

- VenomMyotismon

"Curse you, DigiDestined! Curse you and your lousy crests! Let go! Aah! Let go!"

- VenomMyotismon's last words before being finished off by WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon.

"You can forget the Digital World, Oikawa. It is beyond your reach now. You will never see it again, even in your dreams. (The Dark Spore children cry.) Yes, cry. You are doomed, for you have entered a world of despair where your souls will be consumed by darkness, and there is no place for you to hide, nor hope for you to escape."

- Myotismon taunting Oikawa and the Dark Spore children.

"What’s the matter, are you seeing double? Oh, sorry. Gatomon got your tongue? Oh, and by the way, about the Dark Spores opening a doorway between the worlds, they’re really just the batteries that will allow me to finally be reborn."

- Myotismon taunting Oikawa before he feeds the Dark Spores.

"If you want to go to the Digital World, soothe your heart in darkness and I'll take you there."

- Myotismon, to Yukio Oikawa.

"(Oikawa: Am I going crazy or is that mouth talking with my voice?!) A little bit of both, I think."

- Myotismon, talking to Yukio Oikawa through an illusion of a giant floating mouth above everyone else's heads using his own voice.

"Actually, you can call me MaloMyotismon!"

- MaloMyotismon, upon transforming from a duplicate of Oikawa.

"I just did what she was thinking. Now really, is that so wrong? IS IT?!"

- MaloMyotismon, responding to Mummymon's question of what he did to Arukenimon and then asking Arukenimon whether it was wrong or not.

"I love this game. So tell me, what do you think I should do next? Think hard, now."

- MaloMyotismon, while torturing Arukenimon

"What next? What should I do? Show me what you fear. (Arukenimon: Please! NO! NOT THAT!) Very well."

- MaloMyotismon, while torturing Arukenimon some more.

"I'm afraid she's gone to pieces. All I did was grant her her wish to get as far away from me as possible. Well, she'll never be near me again."

- MaloMyotismon telling Mummymon what he claims to be how he destroyed Arukenimon.

"You can't hide your fears either. You think you don't stand a chance against me and you know what? You're right. You don't. (Mummymon: You don't scare me! You've taken away my Arukenimon and now I'm going to make you pay for what you did to her!) Hah. What do you plan to do, wrap me in another useless Snake Bandage? You scare me even less than these DigiDestined fools from the other world. (Mummymon: Then I will teach you to fear me!!) Playtime is over. Crimson Mist!"

- MaloMyotismon's response to Mummymon's attempt to make him suffer for destroying Arukenimon in front of him.

"I'm curious to know why my Mind Illusion was ineffective against you. How can it be that you have no insecurities or unhappinesses for it to feed off of? (Davis: What do I have to worry about? I've got my friends, my family the Digimon. Besides some guy with a letter opener on his face trying to kill me, I'm happy to say I don't have any problems.) Impossible. Theres' not a single child in the world that doesn't have something they're worried about."

- MaloMyotismon realizing how Davis managed to resist his Mental Illusion because he doesn't have any problems in the world.

"Oops, I think I broke your friends!"

- MaloMyotismon

"Behold my power."

- MaloMyotismon

Part 3
"You foolish DigiDestined, watch closely now. Your world is being consumed by eternal night!"

- MaloMyotismon, to the DigiDestined

"The two worlds will unite in darkness, then they shall both be mine!"

- MaloMyotismon

"No! This can't be happening! Those paltry children can't make me disappear! I won't allow it!!"

- MaloMyotismon's last words, which is also Myotismon's final words before he was destroyed for the final time.

Trivia

 * His Japanese name Vamdemon is a mixture of the words vampire and demon.
 * His English name Myotismon originates from Myotis, the Latin name of mouse-eared bat.
 * His name was changed in English version most likely to avoid confusions with Vademon.
 * Two of his more violent scenes in the Japanese version of killing Pumpkinmon and Gotsumon and whipping Salamon (Gatomon's Rookie form) were edited out in the English Dub and in the case of Pumpkinmon and Gotsumon it was substituted by stating that he was sending them to his dungeon in the Digital World. His later torture of Arukenimon was slightly edited as well.
 * Myotismon is one of two villains to be killed in Season 1 and have their spirit form destroyed for good by a Mega form of Veemon in Season 2, the other being Devimon. Although in Myotismon's case, he was revived in Season 2 and his body destroyed a third time moments before his final death.
 * In addition, Myotismon's disembodied spirit returning to revive himself was also done by Andross in Star Fox Adventures, except Andross could only do this once.
 * It is unknown how Myotismon got the Crest of Light when the Crests were stolen by Piedmon and given to Devimon to hide.
 * While Myotismon's spirit survives his first two deaths, the first didn't break his fog barrier or his other curses but the second did. The reasons for this are unknown, but it's possible he was significantly weaker this time around as it took an elaborate plan that lasted many years to be revived. Also, his shadow form remains invisible the first two times, but the third time he is destroyed it's immediately visible (enabling his final destruction), possibly due to the lights of the Digivices keeping him from hiding.
 * The names of the two living cannon-like parasites on MaloMyotismon's shoulders comes from the Biblical twin cities of Sodom and Gomorrah known for the wickedness and destruction of their inhabitants.
 * The names of the two living cannon-like parasites on MaloMyotismon's shoulders comes from the Biblical twin cities of Sodom and Gomorrah known for the wickedness and destruction of their inhabitants.
 * MaloMyotismon's tail resembles that of a xenomorph. Indeed, he even makes a similar stabbing motion with it during his torture of Arukenimon.
 * Myotismon's first Mega form and the transformation process in the anime, VenomMyotismon, is most likely a reference to the dragon form of Satan from the Book of Revelations, not to mention the number 666 and possibly verses from Revelations are directly referenced by Matt and T.K's father throughout the entire scene.
 * On WatchMojo.com's Top 10 Digimon Villains, Myotismon was listed as #1.
