Card Explanations Needed: none
My Card Comments: Although Labramon is rather weak when it comes to Attack power, it's got a very high Defense power and a Special Effect that weakens one of the opponent's Digimon. Needless to say, Labramon would make a good defensive card if your hand isn't too good and you need your Data Points protected. Hints, Tips, & Strategies: None yet. Additional Name/Attack Info: It's likely 'retrieverg' was a typo and the attack is meant to be 'retriever' since Labradors were used by hunters to retrieve, or find, whatever was just hunted. Chris McFeely Says: (Adventure & 02) (Tamers) LABRAMON Group: Animal – Level: Rookie – Type: Vaccine – Attack Techniques: Cure Liquor, Retrieving Labramon is the Rookie form of Seasarmon. Designed as the first V-Pet by Minami Uehara’s father, Labramon was created to replace Minami’s dead dog, Mei, and was sculpted in the dog’s image, but Minami rejected the V-Pet. When Minami fled VP Labs with the original
V-Pet, she was pursued by wild Digimon, and Seasarmon emerged
from the V-Pet to try and save her – in vain, as she was
captured and taken back to VP Labs. Takato, Kai and
Guilmon followed, but in the ensuing confrontation, it was
revealed that the president of the company, Ryuuji Tamashiro,
was, in actuality, the evil Digimon Mephistomon, and had
been searching for the vaccination program Minami’s father
had created for the V-Pets, which could stop his plan to use them
to plunge Earth’s computer systems into chaos – a
program that Minami’s father inadvertently revealed was
within Seasarmon. Mephistomon attacked, De-Digivolving
Seasarmon into Labramon, and seizing him. He then transported all
the Tamers into an underwater world he had crafted in the image
of mankind’s destruction, where he battled the Digimon in
their Champion forms. At Growlmon’s urgings, Labramon
broke free from Mephistomon’s grip as the Champions brought
a cruise ship crashing down on him. Labramon shielded Minami from
the following blast, fatally wounding himself, but she tried to
say she didn't appreciate what he'd done. Labramon, having been
designed to replace Mei, effectively WAS Mei, and told Minami
that Mei's death wasn't her fault. Minami broke down, pleading
with Labramon not to die, and by finally accepting him, and
calling him Mei, the name always intended for him, Minami enabled
the vaccination program within him to activate, repairing the
damage done to Earth’s electronics network by the rampaging
V-Pets, as he deleted in her arms. Labramon appears in “The
Adventurers’ Battle,” the first Digimon
Tamers movie (fifth movie overall), which has not been
released in the west. (Frontier) All 'Chris McFeely Says:' info copyright to Chris McFeely and used under permission from him. For more info, you can visit his site or http://www.angelfire.com/anime2/digipedia/ |
