Profile[edit]
Due to being a Demon Beast-type, with data related to wolves, Loogamon is strict about social order in his pack, where he is the alpha. He's hard to handle, with even three Tyranomon, who are a level above it, becoming his minions and being scared of him. He's quite a glutton, eating the others' food and even trying to eat a Tyranomon. His growth score is not an average one, growing big in only 2 to 3 days.
He refuses to follow Nagasumi Eiji's orders, despite the fact that their compatibility is second-to-none according to Profesor Ryusenji Tomonori and their DS value.

Manga[edit]
Digimon Seekers ~Wall Slum's Nightmare~[edit]
In Episode 1, in Wall Slum, a Deltamon and a Dark Tyranomon clashed against each other. Nagasumi Eiji, also known as Cracker Fang and the new leader of the Sons of Chaos (SoC), ordered them to stop as fighting was strictly prohibited on Ninth Avenue, but neither cared much for him until Loogamon, his Partner Digimon, stated he worked for him, the boss of Wall Slum's Ninth Avenue, who ordered them to follow his rules if they intended to stay. As they were both Adults and Loogamon was only a Child, they just laughed at him, so Loogamon easily took both of them down, against Eiji's wishes. Loogamon wanted to go back on patrol afterwards, but Thunderballmon (Loogamon's underling Nº6) riding on Tyranomon (Loogamon's underling Nº3) showed up, with the former telling their boss they couldn't find Nº8 (Dogmon) or Nº9 (Espimon). Loogamon ordered them to keep looking. Eiji didn't know they were missing so Loogamon explained they had skipped out on their bait duties this morning. While Eiji was unhappy that he wasn't told before, Loogamon thought it'd be fine for him to learn now, then explained that more Digimon had disappeared on the other Avenues so they were going to investigate it, which Eiji agreed with.
In a library on the First Avenue, with a Mokumon giving him light so he could read a book, DORUmon, the boss of First Avenue and former leader of SoC, said he had heard about the disappearances but there hadn't been any cases on his Avenue. Loogamon asked him if he had heard anything else as he always kept tabs on that stuff and DORUmon explained he heard the boss of Fourth Avenue had been replaced recently so they should try asking them. Loogamon was angered by DORUmon's attitude but nonetheless thanked DORUmon and left. Before following, Eiji thanked DORUmon and gave his regards to Tartarus, or rather, to Kisakata Kosuke. DORUmon stated they were an unruly team.
Riding the train, Eiji commented he found it really weird how so many Digimon disappeared over a wide area in a relatively short time span and asked Loogamon if he thought there might be a group behind it, while he remembered the nine Avenues and their respective bosses:
- DORUmon
- Revolmon
- ?
- Previously Digitamamon
- Great King Scumon
- Cyberdramon
- Rebellimon
- Minotaurmon
- Loogamon
Eiji then pointed out they had no major clues and didn't know why Nº8 and Nº9 were targetted. He then noticed Loogamon was staring at him, and the Demon Beast said it was worth looking into, which made Eiji happy. The duo then arrived at Fourth Avenue and went to Fourth Avenue Castle, where they found a group of wounded Digimon and Digimon taking care of them, which included Octmon, Morphomon, Sistermon Blanc, Luxmon, Cupimon, Liollmon, Impmon, Yukidarumon, Bokomon, Pucchiemon, Patamon, Pumpmon, Gottsumon, Gaossmon, Pomumon, and others. Loogamon detected a smell, but before he could follow it, the duo found themselves face-to-face with Orochimon, the new boss of Fourth Avenue, who recognized Loogamon as the Demon Wolf of the Castle of Nine Wolves. He introduced himself as the new boss of Fourth Avenue and apologized for the wounded Digimon. Loogamon asked him about the recent disappearances, which included two of his underlings, but Orochimon said he wasn't aware of any of his own Digimon disappearing and he wished for peace within Wall Slum. For that, he took down the previous Fourth Avenue boss down amd assumed his position, as Fourth Avenue couldn't endure its conflicts with Fifth and Sixth Avenues any longer. He then added he wanted to form an alliance with DORUmon and Loogamon, as with their powers combined, they could turn Wall Slum into a wonderful city of happiness. Eiji was convinced Orochimon was a good guy, while Orochimon didn't want to pressure Loogamon for an answer but hoped he'd give it some thought.
After leaving the castle, Eiji pointed out Orochimon was an upstanding Digimon despite how scary he looked but Loogamon disagreed. Eiji asked if Loogamon thought Orochimon was lying but Loogamon didn't think him wanting to bring peace to Wall Slum was unbelievable, just that it wouldn't be so easy to do in a dog-eats-dog environment. Regardless, their priority was to look for Nº8 and Nº9 and he was curious about what he smelled in the castle, so he wanted to go to the Fifth Avenue, also known as Dust Kingdom. However, said place had been burnt to the ground, leaving wounded Digimon such as Nanimon, Vademon, Namakemon and Karatuki Numemon behind. Behind the smoke, Eiji saw Leon Alexander, also known as Hacker Judge, who carried a severely hurt Tyumon in his arms. He explained he was investigating the unusual ocurrences in Wall Slum as a malicious Cracker could be behind them. Leon tried to give Eiji the Tyumon but it died and turned back into a Digitama. Pulsemon, Leon's Partner Digimon, then showed up and explained the other Digimon had turned back into Digitamas too. Leon thanked Pulsemon for the information. Eiji realized this wasn't about mere disappearances anymore, they had to find whoever was responsible for this. Leon realized Eiji was also looking into the same thing he was and Loogamon confirmed it, then asked him if he had any leads, but he had none. Instead, he had a date with some ladies to see if they knew anything and invited Eiji to it, to Eiji's confusion.
After the date in the Real World, the group went to Sixth Avenue, where a Soundbirdmon flew through the night. Pulsemon checked the roofs but found nothing while Loogamon followed a scent. The group was then taken by surprise by a loud growl which came from the castle. There, they found a Nidhoggmon eating a Digimon which it swallowed whole, convincing Eiji and Leon that it was the culprit.
Following in Episode 2, Nidhoggmon flew through the Sixth Avenue of Wall Slum, causing destruction in its wake. Loogamon and Pulsemon followed it, although the former couldn't go as fast as he wanted to due to the debris around the area. Tamahime Satsuki then arrived from the sky, riding on Cargodramon and with Numemon by her side, and ordered the Digimon to get in.
After Leon's plan to save the researcher failed, Loogamon told Eiji that they were too late, she was not human anymore, just corrupted data. Eiji resolved himself to fight for his friends in Wall Slum. The three Tamers evolved their Digimon to their Perfect stages: Pulsemon to Boutmon, Loogamon to Soloogarmon, and Numemon to Black King Numemon. Black King Numemon used its Poison Mucus on Nidhoggmon's eyes to blind it, then Boutmon took the chance to hit her with his Raigekishou. As Soloogarmon charged an attack, Eiji told Leon to move, and with Boutmon out of the way, hit Nidhoggmon with his Sköll Rage as they asked her why she did what she did. Unfazed by the attack, Nidhoggmon knocked Soloogarmon away as she explained she could hear the voices of the Digimon that were tossed aside, combined within her, just as she had combined with Nidhoggmon. Eiji was unfazed by this, however, and Black King Numemon once again stopped Nidhoggmon, this time by hypnotizing her with its Black Pupil, allowing Boutmon and Soloogarmon to hit her with their Budenhadan and Eruption Howling, respectively. However, they wounds they caused her quickly healed up, and then she counterattacked them with Rudiment. The trio tried to hit her over and over to no avail, with Yulin realizing they had no chance. Calling them through GriMM, Yulin asked the trio if they had found the Digicore. Satsuki explained she had and it was in the head, which Eiji and Leon realized would be a tough spot to hit if she kept moving. Yulin wondered how they could keep her still but quickly arrived at an idea. To follow it, Boutmon and Black King Numemon devolved back to their base stages and were carried away by Soloogarmon. Nidhoggmon followed them through a cramped street with buildings on both sides, which Yulin took advantage of, having Cargodramon attack the buildings with its Slaughter Blade so they'd fall on top of her. Nidhoggmon asked her if she had gone that far just to trap her but that was not all, as Ouryumon appeared and hit her with Eiseiryuoujin, pinning her to the ground. The trio took the chance to evolve to their Ultimate levels (Numemon > Black King Numemon > Platinum Numemon, Loogamon > Loogarmon > Soloogarmon > Fenriloogamon, Pulsemon > Bulkmon > Boutmon > Kazuchimon). Platinum Numemon attacked first with its Platinum Burp and Platinum Excrement, followed by Fenriloogamon using Hróðvitnir to summon a duplicate of himself. Both Fenriloogamon surrounded Kazuchimon, who rose his swords for a combined attack of Ragnarök Howling and Shinden Shouraikou. Eiji and Leon shouted as their attack pierced through Nidhoggmon's head and Digicore, shattering the latter and deleting Nidhoggmon. From her data, the Digitama of the missing Digimon appeared. While Eiji realized there were some missing, he was nonetheless relieved at this.
As they gathered the Digitama alongside the Digipolice's Commandramons, Eiji asked Loogamon about how Orochimon, or rather, the researcher, really loved Digimon. Loogamon accepted Wall Slum was a hellish place but they still could find ways to enjoy themselves in it. Eiji agreed and both fist-bumped each other.
Live Action[edit]
Digimon Seekers[edit]
Nagasumi Eiji first met Loogamon after using the Digimon Linker's Mind Link function in "Chapter 1 Eiji:Wolf of ninth avenue". He quickly gave him their mission: to infiltrate the SoC and find out who the Tartarus is. However, they were soon after found by the Digipolice's Cargodramon, from whom several Commandramon came out, pursuing Loogamon as a suspicious Digimon. Answering Eiji's wish to change his life, Loogamon then evolved into Loogarmon to face them.
In "Chapter 2 Hacker Leon:WWW Airlines flight626", he fought against Leon Alexander and his Boutmon as Loogarmon. He then evolved into Helloogarmon, which caused him to go out of control.
In "Chapter 4 Sons of Chaos: Seekers", as Kisakata Kosuke proclaimed that the greatest revolution in human history began, the Digipolice's Hi-Commandramon shot DCD Grenades at Loogarmon, who was surrounded by rings of blue light, which themselves were surrounded by rings of orange light. From the explosion caused by the attacks, the evolved Soloogarmon appeared, clearing the flames with a swipe of his sword, then charged forward.
From inside Ouryumon, Xu Yulin asked how Kosuke was going to save Ryusenji Saya. Kosuke, surrounded by the Prototype Digimon: DORUmon, Loogamon, and the defeated Ryudamon, as well as Eiji, answered he was going to scour the depths of the Digital World. As he did, he typed on a holographic console which projected orbs showing the three Attributes: Vaccine, Data and Virus. Eiji and Loogamon looked upwards. The Digicore Interfaces on the Prototype Digimon's heads started to glow. The Digital World lost all colour.
Soloogarmon covered himself in a bubble of hexagonal panels, with blue and orange rings of light surrounding it, and evolved into Fenriloogamon, opposite DORUgoramon.
After Eiji and Leon settled their differences, Eiji proclaimed he'd turn the Digital World upside down to find what he was after, and the Jogressed form of Fenriloogamon and Kazuchimon, Fenriloogamon: Takemikazuchi, was formed.
Novel[edit]
Digimon Seekers[edit]
Loogamon's sprite appeared in Nagasumi Eiji's new Digimon Linker in "1-4: Eiji:Wolf of ninth avenue", alongside the mission to raise him, both gotten from Professor Ryusenji Tomonori. To help raise him, Eiji connected the Digimon Linker to his other Digimon Docks in 1-6, so he'd interact with his three Tyranomon, however, this only led to them becoming his minions, with Loogamon as the alpha of their pack, stealing the others' food and even trying to eat one of them.
According to Eiji in 1-7, Loogamon is hard to deal with, as he refused to follow his orders, ate too much, costed too much, and pooped too much. Nonetheless, he wanted to keep raising him, and Professor Ryusenji offered an incentive if he got him to the Adult-level, and higher ones for the Perfect and Ultimate levels. Eiji also Hololized him in front of the Professor, which made him want to pet him.
