Royal Knights

The Royal Knights (ロイヤルナイツ Roiyaru Naitsu) are an alliance of powerful knight Digimon founded by Imperialdramon Paladin Mode in ancient times. They are the highest security of the Net, also known as "Guardian Deities". They may serve their Lord blindly, regardless if their Lord is good or evil. Some say that the Royal Knights are the ones who are closest to God.

=Founder= Imperialdramon Paladin Mode is not a member of the Royal Knights but is the founder.

=Members= These are the known members of the Royal Knights. There are 13 members in total, but only this many are known. They are all Holy Knight type Digimon (Rapidmon (Gold) is also a Holy Knight, but there is no mention of him being a member of the Royal Knights). (Note: The X Digimon still count as the same Royal Knights).

=Appearances=

Digimon Frontier
Dynasmon and Rhodo Knightmon serve the Fallen Angel Digimon Lucemon in destroying and recreating the Digital World. After several skirmishes with the Frontier Chosen the two Royal Knights finally destroy the Digital World and revive their Master, only to be betrayed when Lucemon kills them and absorbs all the data they have collected.

Digimon Savers
The Royal Knights as a whole were originally viewed upon as being antagonists, due to being ordered to destroy the Human World under the command of Yggdrasil when the Digital World is set to collide with the Real World. However, it is more likely that Yggdrasil ordered the attack because he viewed the humans as threats after the action of Kurata Akihiro, especially after his massacre of Digimon years before using his own created Digimon, Gizmon, and using the collected life energy to revive Belphemon to rule both humans and Digimon.
