⇨ Japanese
A likeable, heroic Beast Digimon with an intense loyalty to the Digimon or Tamer it chooses as its master. It is often seen sleeping in sunny places, but in actuality, it is constantly checking for any danger in its surroundings using its keen sense of smell. Since it always carries a ball around, which it rolls and plays with by itself, Wankomon would be very delighted if someone played with it.
Its Special Move is using its tail to throw its ball, filled with mysterious power, and crushing the enemy with the ball, which enlarges above their head (Gōhakukyū). When it senses danger, it hardens its body like stone with its "Ishidzuchi no Tei", defending itself even from the attacks of superior opponents.

主と定めたデジモンやテイマーに対し強い忠誠心を持つ、懐っこく健気な獣型デジモン。日向で寝ている姿がよく目撃されているが、実は鋭い嗅覚で周囲に危険がないか常に確認している。毬を常に持ち運んでは転がして単独で遊んでいるため、一緒に遊ぶと大いに喜ぶことだろう。
必殺技は謎のパワーを込めた毬を尾で投げつけ、頭上で巨大化させたその毬で敵を押しつぶす『豪狛毬（ごうはくきゅう）』。危険を感じた際には『石土之体（いしづちのてい）』で体の石のように固くし、格上の敵の攻撃からも身を護る。

| Wankomon is modeled after the inu hariko (犬張子; lit. "papier-mâché dog"), a traditional Japanese papier-mâché dog figurine, often given as a symbol of protection and good luck. It has a ball on its tail and a horn on its head, incorporating some elements of komainu (狛犬), often called lion-dogs in English, which traditionally guard the entrance or gate of the shrine, or placed in front of or within the honden (inner sanctum) of Japanese Shinto shrines.
The ball on its tail features the symbol of Kunlun.
