 * pe=A Demon Lord Digimon that leads the many Devil and Fallen Angel Digimon. Like Devimon, Demon was originally an Angel Digimon, and a particularly high-ranking one. However, because it raged in fury or rebellion, against a being of goodness in the Digital World (perhaps the very human that created the Digital World), it was deleted to the Dark Area (the graveyard of deleted data). It has vowed to one day conquer the Digital World, in revenge against the being of goodness. Also, it is plotting to secretly revive the "Super Ultimate Digimon," who led the rebellion and was the strongest among the Ultimates. Its Special Move is superhigh-temperature hellfire ({{AT|Flame Inferno}}). Those who suffer this technique are burned up without a trace.

 * dsgn=Demon's un-mantled design (see below) was designed by Yabuno Tenya for Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01, to fill the role of its "final boss." He and Izawa Hiroshi also named it, having settled on the name "Demon" for its easy-to-understand nature.

Demon has two states. The first is Yabuno's aforementioned design for V-Tamer 01 (pictured in the species infobox on far right); this was the first of its designs to debut, and it is used in the majority of the species' appearances in Digimon franchise material. This state generally does not have a specific label in Japanese-originated media, but in South Korean-originated video games such as Digimon Masters, it is often known (in English, as there are no Japanese versions of such games) as Demon Beast Mode in the context of being a powered-up form that evolves from its second state. (For convenience, this article hereafter refers to the Yabuno design as the "un-mantled" state.)

Its second state (Digital Monster Card Game art pictured right) is its appearance when wearing a that covers its entire body, including a hood over its face. Its arms also appear to be of equal proportions to each other, unlike the un-mantled state. This design debuted in Digimon Adventure 02, and appears less frequently in the franchise. Some materials have named this state Demon (Mantled) or Demon (Real World Form). (For convenience, this article hereafter refers to this design as the "Mantled" state.)

With the aforementioned exception of South Korean video games, these two states are generally not treated as distinct Mode Changed forms or acknowledged as separate in any way.

Both states have experienced some color variation in their designs: }}
 * Depictions of the un-mantled Demon by Yabuno himself, or based directly on his work&mdash;e.g. colorized pages and promotional art for V-Tamer 01, coverage of the Digimon Pendulum 3.5 in V Jump&mdash;give Demon red-tinged skin (primarily its jowls) and horns, and darker fur. (The "mutated" version of Demon in Digimon Linkz has a similar color scheme, but varies the color distribution.) In all other appearances, its skin is blue-hued and its fur is more visibly crimson.
 * In Adventure 02, Masters and the Nintendo DS Digimon Story games, Demon (Mantled)'s hood is colored crimson like the rest of its mantle, and its is dark. In all other appearances, its hood is black and its scapular is white.

=Appearances=

Demon (depicted Mantled) is a powerful dark Digimon. Using his underlings in the Demon Corps, he launches an attack on Tokyo in late December 2002 in order to find Ichijouji Ken and take his Dark Seed, and clashes with both the Chosen Children and Oikawa Yukio.

Demon (depicted un-mantled) is, or was, a member of the Seven Great Demon Lords. It is only seen briefly in silhouette in a flashback in, as Noguchi Ikuto explains the history of the Demon Lords' near-destruction of the Digital World.

In, following the destruction of Ordinemon and the foiling of Yggdrasill's plan, the Mysterious Man offhandedly mentions Demon to himself as one of several possibilities for evil Digimon who could be used in Yggdrasill's next plan for conquest.

Individual Appearances
{{AppearanceList|

Digimon Adventure tri.
}}

Demon (depicted un-mantled) is a mutant Digimon who aims to conquer both the Real and Digital World. With his army of evil Digimon, as well as Saiba Neo and the Alias III, he wages a war against Lord Holy Angemon. He is attempting to raise a Super Ultimate Digimon, using Neo, so that he can use its power to fulfill his desires.

Demon is one of the Seven Great Demon Lords, and was Demon (X-Antibody)'s form before undergoing X-Evolution. It does not appear itself, but a supplementary Monmon Memo!! column discloses that before the story's beginning and its X-Evolution, Demon had been stealing X-Antibodies from other Digimon under the belief that doing so would grant it the power of a Super Ultimate Digimon.

Demon (depicted Mantled) is an unobtainable enemy Digimon. It appears in three Tamer battles in the Amaterasu Server: two soldiers in the Amaterasu Admin Center; and the Fire Master in the Amaterasu Fire Dungeon.

Demon also appears as a card for Card Battles. It is one of the game's legendary cards, and is rewarded to the player for defeating the Numemon who uses the Lv87 Dark Demon King Folder (Dub: Dark Evil King) in the Underground (accessible from the Asuka Server Snow Mountain).

There are two separate versions of Demon in Digimon RPG.


 * Demon's Mantled state&mdash;just called "Demon"&mdash;is a Card Evolution of Skull Satamon. It appears as an enemy in the 3rd floor of the Dungeon of Darkness.
 * Demon's un-mantled state&mdash;called "Demon Beast Mode"&mdash;is also available as a card evolution.

There are two separate versions of Demon in Digimon Story. Both of them are just called "Demon" with no distinction in their names in Japanese, but have totally different names from each other in the English version, Digimon World DS.


 * Demon's Mantled state (Dub: Creepymon) is an obtainable Digimon. It can be found at Lava River.
 * Demon's un-mantled state (Dub: Daemon) is an unobtainable boss Digimon. It is one of the Seven Great Demon Lords, and is fought twice during the Defeat the Great Demon Lords!! (Dub: The 7 Demon Lords) Onegai Quest: first by itself at Dokkan Mountain, and then as the first of seven consecutive Demon Lord boss battles at Destroyed Belt.

Demon (depicted un-mantled) is one of the Seven Great Demon Lords. Nitta Masaki is the current Demon, having been taken into the Dark Area and transformed due to the Code Key of Wrath and his intense rage against criminals who misuse Digimon, and he is exploited by Kagura Tsukasa to fulfill his goals in exchange for a chance to return to the Real World.

Demon/Masaki is fought three times as part of the main story:


 * 1) At Walter Island, at the beginning of the game. This fight is unwinnable, and ends after one turn; in the subsequent cutscene, Demon flees upon seeing Daimon Masaru's Digivice iC.
 * 2) At Doomsday Forest Ruin. After being defeated, he flees into a Digital Gate and leaves behind Masaki's Digivice iC in the subsequent cutscene.
 * 3) At DATS Headquarters Vicinity.

In the post-game (i.e. after reaching the last save point), Demon becomes an obtainable Digimon, as an evolution of Masaru's Agumon. Among the criteria for unlocking the Demon evolution is receiving Demon's power from Masaki at Walter Island, which first requires speaking with Lilithmon at Livilus Island and defeating the remaining five Demon Lords in their post-game rematches.
