Leomon is the first opponent of Deserted Island's Battle Arena. When the player meets him, he considers his mission to be destroying the Chosen Children. He uses the Gears of Battle deck, a Green/Nature and Black/Darkness deck with 3 attack, defense and evolution speed. Upon being defeated, he praises the player, and realizes that he should just focus on enjoying the game, asking the player for his help on that.

In-game, Leomon is shown with blank eyes, as he looked under Devimon's brainwashing.

Leomon first appears in Episode 10, "The Messenger of Darkness, Devimon!", where he sees a Black Gear flying while on Infinity Mountain. He's then attacked by Orgemon. Leomon, however, refuses to fight him as the Black Gears are more important, though Orgemon does not care and attacks him with his, which Leomon answers to with his own. Their fight is then interrupted by Devimon, who tells them that the Chosen Children have arrived. This prompts Leomon to attack him, though it accomplishes nothing, and Devimon returns the favour with his, which brainwashes Leomon.

Leomon then attacked the Chosen Children as they went down the mountain due to his brainwashing, despite Gabumon and Patamon acknowledging him as a Digimon of justice. The Chosen Children tried to run away, but Orgemon blocked their escape route. Unlike Leomon, Patamon and Gomamon knew Orgemon was an evil Digimon.

Leomon is the eighth obligatory boss of the game, fighting Greymon, Kabuterimon and Togemon at the end of Episode 10, "The Messenger of Darkness, Devimon!". For the battle, all three will start in their Adult forms and remain in them for no SP cost. Leomon can counter attacks automatically at random, and deal damage to one party Digimon with and the entire party with. Upon being defeated, he drops the Counter DigiPiece that allows the player Digimon to counter attacks as well.

After the Chosen Children defeated Leomon and Orgemon, Devimon appeared and caused a landslide, separating both groups.

Devimon, Leomon and Orgemon reappear in Episode 11, "The Mysterious Mansion", where the former is the one responsible for the namesake mansion, a trap for the Chosen Children. After Yagami Taichi and Agumon escaped from Orgemon, who found them in the toilet, Leomon attempted to block their escape. After Devimon broke File Island into pieces, Leomon appeared once again and tried to attack Taichi, but a light came out of Taichi's Digivice, which broke Leomon out of Devimon's brainwashing. Leomon then attacked Devimon once again with a, and told Taichi to run away as the Chosen Children had been summoned to the Digital World as their only hope, before shooting yet another which sent Taichi and Agumon away. Leomon was then brainwashed once again, and Devimon, now accompanied by both Leomon and Orgemon, merely decided to kill the Chosen Children slowly, one by one.

Leomon reappeared in Episode 15, "Centalmon, the Guardian!", inside the ruins after Centalmon explained the Digivices to Izumi Koshiro and Tachikawa Mimi. Centalmon himself was surprised at his appearance, but quickly realized that he was being controlled, just like Centalmon himself had been only shortly before. Koshiro, who understood Centalmon's words, used both of their Digivices on Leomon, as they "bring light to the world and drive out the darkness". Leomon then ran away.
