Every great tree, must bloom its flowers,

Yeah sure kid, Auntie Jinx at your service. I should warn you I'm no expert this is just the data I've put together from my own observations.

You're partner Labramon has the useful and fantastic ability to take on greater and more powerful forms to fight and protect with. This is called evolution. To trigger this evolution requires one of two things usually, a burst of emotionally energy such as bravery, fear, sorrow, rage ect. The second is that the tamer, that is to say you...have to be in some sort of peril. Usually in the second case fear is the emotional burst tied to it so it's a given.

When the emotions begin to burn brightly in you, the energy is transferred from you to your Digimon via the devices that you share. You may notice somewhere on your Digimon they have a bracelet or something that matches your D-comm.

You have to be careful to make sure your motivations are pure however. Emotions like Rage and Sorrow bring about Dark Evolutions which are incredibly dangerous to not only you but anyone around you.

The stronger your pure emotions are though the stronger your Digimon will be. And for you Shamans I imagine bravery isn't an issue.

From:

Haha! Thank's Jinx nee-san.

Rage, huh? That must have been what did it for Labramon...

Dark Evolutions? How do you know if your Digimon has changed into something like that?

You know alot about this stuff, huh?

From:

Usually you can tell if your Digimon has dark evolved because...well sometimes they shout it out during the evolution process.

The only other way to tell is to guess really. If you've seen them evolve once before, and what they turned into didn't match up...

Also a pretty good give away is if the new form they take looks decidedly scary and evil but with some Digimon that's hard to gauge.

What did Labramon change into?

I spend alot of time reading, watching people and keeping up to date on the posts people leave...you'd be amazed how much you can learn.

And knowledge is the greatest power you know.

From:

I think it was Dobermon? He looked really different to when he's Labramon. Do you think that's because I was really angry, or will he always be like that?

You're right, I suppose. But you learn best when you ask questions, right?

From:

Dobermon....huh...that's a tough one.

From what I've read in the older books back in the day there were very specific lines drawn between good and evil Digimon...but so much time has passed that for the most part those lines have been blurred.

For example traditionally Picodevimon have always been less then heroic and pure Digimon...but many tamers have them and fight for the side of truth justice light and fluffy bunnies.

Was there anything particular about how Dobermon fought? Did he seem out of control? Bloodthirsty maybe?

Naturally, if you never ask questions you never get the answers.

From:

Well, he kinda just tossed the other Digimon aside and went straight for the Tamer. But I don't know if he was out of control, because I didn't tell him to do anything. Is it normal for Digimon to attack other Digimon's Tamers?

From:

I wouldn't say so no...but...and this is just my guessing here...did you feel a particularly strong amount of hate at the tamer?

Oh dear...and you may want to read this and fix your post before you respond...

[Attached: Instructions on how to lock posts from hostiles because Jinx just noticed the post was left wiiiiiiiide open]

From:

Well... yeh.

[Attachment received.]

Huh? Why would I want to lock my post? I'm not giving any information away am I?

From:

It's always a good idea to lock your post from Hostiles sweetie, you never know what they can get from an open signal...plus they can respond to your post as well and some of the more clever ones can lie and pretend they aren't hostile at all.

We have to be careful.

The Digimon may have been acting upon your burning hate for the tamer...it's really hard to tell having not been there. And it was your first evolution I'm guessing.

All we can do is wait for the next one...maybe try sparring with someone and getting him to evolve again.

I'm glad you're getting used to them, Hana!

[Locked to Hana]

Well... you already know why I got my scar, so I guess I should tell you the reason for doing so.

Ready to hear a possibly long lecture?

From:

Haha, I suppose so. It won't be too long will it?

From:

Nah, shouldn't be.

Alright, well, while I was in the hospital and I had to get each stitch in my back removed while I had to be awake during the operation. Before that actually happened, one morning I decided that I would be the first female in the Hikari family to compete in the Shaman Tournament and that I wouldn't be looked at as weak or feeble just because that happened to me. So, my mama and I went out and we bought a uniform to prove of my bravery.

Morale of the story, Hana?

I didn't want to be looked at as weak, so I decided to get as strong as a guy would and practically walk, talk and act like a guy in the process.

From:

I'm sorry, Auntie Hoshi. But I still don't quite understand.

From:

Well...I guess it's like a "shield" so to say. If I have the shield up, I'm not vulnerable. If I have it down, I'm looked to as weak.

...yeah, reasoning's still stupid.

From:

But I don't understand. Why would being a girl make you weak? Okaa-sama isn't weak.

From:

I guess it's 'cause Darkness is the one who called me weak for being a girl during our fight.
