⇨ Japanese
A Bird Man Digimon that has gigantic talons and wings that let it dance freely through the sky. Garudamon honors justice and order, and is a guardian deity of the land and wind that loves nature. Its intelligence and combat ability are the highest among Bird Digimon, and it is admired due to it being said that only chosen Digimon can evolve to it. It is thought that if the order of the Digital World is disturbed, it will suddenly appear out of nowhere, and quell the source of the unrest. Also, it is matchless friends with the hero Leomon, who possesses the same will. Its Special Move is unleashing a vacuum blade at super-speed, chopping up the opponent (Shadow Wing). Because of the speed of Shadow Wing's residue, its true shape cannot be confirmed, and it can only be seen as a silhouette shaped like a black bird.

Digimon World: Digital Card Arena[edit]

Garudamon appears in Flame City's Battle Café after beating Yagami Taichi, alongside her partner, Takenouchi Sora. She explains to the player that they met before in Sage Tower, where she was Birdramon. Afterwards, she asks the player how he's doing, and points out that he must've found what he was looking for. She then challenges the player to a battle, pointing out that Sora will not fight him before he beats her, and that she will win if he hasn't improved since Sage Tower. Garudamon plays the Sun Goddess deck, a Red/Flame deck with 4 attack, 4 defense and 3 evolution speed that's well-balanced and uses Recovery cards. Upon being defeated, she's surprised she lost and asks Sora for forgiveness, but nonetheless accepts the battle was fair and holds no grudge, so she's sure he'll have a great match with Sora and wants a rematch herself.

Garudamon later appears as the fourth opponent of Sage Tower's second and third Battle Arenas. Before the first match, she tells the player she's glad to see him again, then points out that the previous battlers could not stop him, but she's not like them and won't let him go any farther. Upon being defeated, she accepts she's no challenge for the player and tells him to continue, but with care as the last two Card Tamers, Metal Garurumon and War Greymon, are stronger than the rest.

Digimon World Re:Digitize Decode[edit]

Digitorin is the Partner Digimon of Rindou Akiho. She evolved into this form at some point before the team battle against Nicolai Petrov and Mikagura Mirei in the Colosseum.

Garudamon is the Partner Digimon of Takenouchi Sora. She can be fought in the Colosseum 1st floor Free Battle: "Sora and Piyomon's Love!". Winning this unlocks Garudamon as an evolution.

A Garudamon, without a Tamer, can be fought in the Colosseum 20th floor Free Battle: "Former Treasure Hunter". This Garudamon was formerly the partner of Airdramon in the Gravel Wasteland, but after a disagreement, they separated and it now fought in the Colosseum to forget the old days. After being defeated, Garudamon realizes it's best suited to be a treasure hunter and returns to its old job. This awards Taiga the Jolly Roger accessory. Afterwards, Taiga can talk to it in the lobby, where Garudamon learns Taiga was sent by Airdramon. It wondered if Airdramon was still angry with it, and upon Taiga confirming otherwise, decides to return to the store. Later, it sends Taiga a mail, confirming it did rejoin Airdramon with a Heavenly Wings item attached as thanks.

When Taiga meets it again in the Gravel Wasteland, it had just found some treasure but couldn't get to it on its own and didn't want to ask Airdramon for help. They pull on it together, only to discover the treasure was Metal Tyranomon instead. He asked Taiga and Garudamon to pull him out but they could do little for him on their own, so Garudamon asked Taiga to go get Airdramon, as it was too embarassing to go itself. With all of them together, they managed to pull Metal Tyranomon out of the sand, terrified. He apologised for the trouble he caused them, then tried to calm down, since as a Perfect, he shouldn't act like he did before, yet only his body strengthened and his mind was as weak as before, so he decided to return to Railroad Plains, if with a feeling they'd meet again. Garudamon and Airdramon then went back to treasure hunting.

Another is fought in the 20th floor Free Battle: "It's all about Strategy", alongside its Tamer, Tycoon. A Garudamon and a Vademon are fought in the Colosseum 30th floor Free Battle: "Two people who want to retire", alongside their Tamers, Thinker and Enzo. This awards Taiga a Duftmon and a Tiger Vespamon card.
