D-3 (virtual pet)

D-3's are modeled after the D-3's used in Digimon Adventure 02.

Versions
The D-3 virtual pet came in three versions:


 * D-3 Version 1
 * D-3 Version 2
 * D-3 Version 3

Use
In each version of the Digimon D-3's you have access to only two Digimon. Version 1 is Veemon/Wormmon and their evolutions, Version 2 is Hawkmon/Tailmon and evolutions, and Version 3 is Armadimon/Patamon. The D-3's allow you to connect to the D-Terminal, just like the Digivice allows you to connect to the Digimon Analyzer. In the D-3's you have the ability to Armor evolve as well as Jogress to evolve further. Progressing through the Area's requires you to take 'Steps' which in turn is a mini pendulum clicking on the inside of the toy. Gather more Digimentals and Jogress to evolve into higher levels. Keep it attached to your belt and as you walk (or shake it manually) the counter will decrease leading you to the boss of the Area. Beat the bosses to progress in the game.

You will begin with both Digimon in the D-3 and battles will happen periodically throughout the Area's. Beating Enemies make your Digimon stronger. When you encounter a Digimon to fight you will have the following options:

1. Use current Digimon: Once this option is selected your Digimon will attack. After 3 attacks, or when someone's Hit Points go down to zero - the battle is over (you lost if a skull appears). 2. Evolve: It will allow you to Evolve the Digimon selected. You can only Evolve once per round. You can choose Normal Evolution or Armor evolution and then choose the specific. 3. Quick Fight: If you select this option, the fight happens without any animation and then the results are announced.
