A mimicking Digimon which is able to hide itself from opponents with its potato-like appearance. Although it has a timid personality and doesn’t much like to fight, its hidden combat abilities are extremely great. In fact, with its peaceful personality it loves to eat and sleep. Since its rind is several orders harder than it looks, it can curl up its limbs and head to allow it to endure the opponent’s attacks. The visible part of its sprout serves as radar which can perceive the motion of enemies above and behind it, so even if its head is hidden it can take in the conditions of its surroundings, and understand them. Its Special Move is firing off pieces of its rind (Smash Potato).

Digimon Adventure:[edit]

In "Jyagamon, Potato Hell", Potamon evolves into Jyagamon and goes into a rampage due to its sorrow at not being able to eat the fries of the haven for travelling Digimon anymore. It attacks the haven with its explosive potatoes, causing destruction and forcing the Digimon in it to run away. However, it still keeps some of its former personality, as it stops attacking once it sees Kido Joe's fries and goes to eat them instead, before letting out a huge burp, making Joe realize who it is, and want to save it.

Jyagamon then surrounds itself with a ring of exploding potatoes, increasing their attack and defense by spinning them around at high speed. However, as the Chosen Children realize that they can stop the exploding potatoes with Lunamon's Lop-ear Ripple bubbles, Joe forms a plan, blowing the bubbles off Komondomon with Zudomon's hammer. Afterwards, Angewomon gives Zudomon her power through a Holy Arrow to his hammer, letting Joe pour his feelings into it, then smash Jyagamon with them. This is effective and returns Jyagamon to its original personality.

Jyagamon, alongside Burgamon and a Torikara Ballmon, reacted to the attack of a group of Soundbirdmon in "The Angels' Determination" from outside their restaurant.

After Negamon was finally defeated in "The End of the Adventure", Burgamon brought fries to Jyagamon in its restaurant, which Jyagamon ate then burped at it. Meanwhile, a Lunamon, a Kunemon and a Pusurimon ate on one table; and a Kamemon and a Floramon ate on another.

Additional Information[edit]

References Notes
  1. While not stated, these Jyagamon and Tonosama Gekomon are likely EX7-045 Jyagamon and EX7-022 Tonosama Gekomon, respectively, as these are the only Jyagamon and Tonosama Gekomon released at the time of the chapter that have a play cost of 7 or less and the [Nature Spirits] trait, both conditions for EX7-037 Tlalocmon's effect. Furthermore, all the cards played by the priest NPC come from EX-07 Digimon Liberator.
