D-Scanner Toy

From Wikimon
For the North American/European/Asian toy line, see D-Tector Toy.

The D-Scanner (ディースキャナ Dīsukyana) is an LCD quest game device that was released in Japanese markets as as a tie-in to the Digimon Frontier anime. It is based on the D-Scanner model of Digivice that appears in that series.

In the D-Scanner, the player gains more Digimon and battle enemies by actually scanning barcodes. Barcodes can either be gotten off any product around the house or from specific Digimon cards. After certain amounts of battles, the player will be allowed to use Digimon of higher levels. There is no map, and this Digivice is essentially a 'collect/scan them all' type toy.

Set-Up and Game Play[edit]

The screen will prompt you to enter your name and birth dates, once that's done the D-Scanner will give you a rookie depending on what you entered. In the D-Scanner Version 3.0, you will also be assigned an element according to your birthday. The elements that will be assigned are as follows.

Last digits of the sum of
each digits in the player's birthday
Element
0 Fire
1 Water
2 Wind
3 Steel
4 Ice
5 Wood
6 Light
7 Earth
8 Thunder
9 Darkness

Training[edit]

You can train your active Digimon here. It can either be a Hybrid Digimon or another from your Cage. Training is how you gain DP and determines how strong your Digimon are up to 100. Battling decreases your SDP. Once it says 'Scan' run the D-Scanner back and forth over a barcode or your hand. A number will pop up and your Digimon will shoot 5 shots. The point total is how much your DP raises. The point structure is as follows:

  • Single Shot = 0 points
  • Double Shot = 1 point
  • Triple Shot = 2 points
  • Super Hit = 4 points

Cage[edit]

In this option you have all the Digimon you captured. For this series of Digivice, the Japanese adopted the North American terms of naming Digimon's Evolution Stages. You can scroll through Rookie, Champion, Ultimate, Mega and then Hybrid Digimon. In here you can select any of the Digimon that you have scanned to be your active Digimon for training or battle and view their stats. Selecting a Digimon as active Digimon would alter the stats.

Item[edit]

In this section you have all the items you have received from barcodes. Like in other Japanese Digivices you can only hold 3 of each item. Items are generally used in a battle. Only some items can be used outside of battle.

Jogress Spirit[edit]

(On D-Scanner 3.0): In this option you can Jogress two different Spirits for different outcomes. This is the only way to get A-Hybrids, Z-Hybrids and Susanoomon (apart from scanning barcodes from cards). Note this also takes up SDP that you gain by winning battles and some items.

User Data[edit]

You can view your name and birthday, your current SDP (Synchronize Digimon Points), your Battle % of wins, the Number of Wins and Loses, and your Battle Ranking. The Battle Ranking info is below. (Note: The Master status requirements are unknown. It may have to do with Scanning completion, the win ratio, the Ancient Digimon or maximum battles.)

Ranking Wins Required Digimon Usable
Rookie 0-14 Wins Needed Up to Child/Hybrid
Champion 15-24 Wins Needed Up to Adult
Ultimate 25-39 Wins Needed Up to Perfect
Mega 40+ Wins Needed Up to Ultimate
Master Unknown Unknown

Digimon Link System[edit]

The Digimon Link System option lets you connect to other Digivices, the WonderSwan, and Pendulum Progresses.

  • D-Scanner
    • Battle
    • Spirit (D-Scanner 3.0 only)
  • Pendulum Progress
    • Battle
    • Jogress
  • Other
    • Battle

The D-Scanners can also Jogress with Pendulum Progress. You can find the Combinations on the Pendulum Progress Evolution Guides section. You do however lose the Digimon you Jogressed with on the D-Scanner and gain the higher level one.

Sound[edit]

This lets you toggle the sound on and off.


SAVE FEATURE[edit]

The D-Scanner automatically saves as you play. So you are able to "load" the data back if you happen to have to change batteries.

D-Scanner Version 3.0 Exceptions[edit]

  • Whereas the Version 1.0 and 2.0 have 5 of the 10 Elements for the hybrids and only 5 Ancients, the Version 3.0 only has the 'good hybrids' (Fire/Light/Ice/Thunder/Wind/Darkness) and all 10 Ancients. You can't transfer the Evil Hybrids from D-Scanner 1.0/2.0 to 3.0.
  • The Version 3.0 incorporates Jogressing, through which you can merge your Spirits into new Hybrids, or do a Jogress scan by scanning 3 Barcodes to get an Ancient Digimon.
  • On the Version 3.0 you can import Spirits from Versions 1.0/2.0 onto the 3.0. The Human and Beast Spirits of Darkness from 2.0 will change into the L and K Spirits of Darkness. The player do not lose the spirits on the Versions 1.0/2.0, Version 3.0 just gains them.
