Talk:SoC

Digimon Used
Moving the discussion here. I see the "Digimon Used" category as necessary for several reasons. The issue that Muur seems to have is that they believe that "Digimon Used" is exclusively for the third reason, which contradicts its usage under the Digipolice. It also wouldn't make sense if it was an organization that didn't have unnamed members in the first place (although that's not the case here).
 * 1) Humans in Seekers are not limited to partner Digimon. It is a Cyber Sleuth situation where people collect, trade, and use Digimon as expendable hacking tools. In the first chapter, Eiji himself mentioned that he bought his Tyranomon with money, and he simply replaces the Tyranomon that got killed with another one he had in his inventory.
 * 2) We have clearly-designated partner Digimon (i.e. Loogamon and Dorumon) who are intelligent and plot-relevant characters, distinct from the expendable and generic Digimon. They are unique individuals and it makes sense for them to be listed under "Members" alongside their human partners, rather than being treated as common non-unique Digimon that are simply owned and used.
 * 3) There are other unnamed members of the SoC who presumably have their own Digimon. They also participated in the Mugendramon operation, albeit their Digimon were not specified.

I don't see why it makes sense for the Digipolice to have this section but not the SoC. As stated on the official Seekers page on the Digimon site, the Digipolice's Digimon unit were personally captured by Yulin, so they are essentially Yulin's 'Tyranomons'. Rather, they're even closer to Yulin than 'Tyranomons', as she didn't just buy them. It's just that she's using them as soldiers, rather than a partner like Ryudamon. Eiji is also using his Tyranomons as 'soldiers' (granted, he's been more caring to them since meeting Loogamon), so I don't see why they should be treated differently.

If you really want to specify that they're Eiji's, you could sub-divide the "Digimon Used" category into the specific members, but I don't see that as unnecessary, as the Tyranomons are apparently available for sale at such an affordable price that a small-time freelancer like Eiji could buy them in bulk. They're not unique to Eiji, and Eiji is also a member of the SoC (being a spy doesn't change that, since he was still recruited under official SoC procedures). A generic Digimon available in bulk used by a member of the group should qualify under "Digimon Used", regardless of the specific member. --YongYoKyo (talk) 13:38, 1 September 2023 (CDT)
