Digimental

Digimentals (デジメンタル Dejimentaru) are rare and ancient items used mainly within the Digimon Adventure 02 anime series and Digimon card games. (Dub: Digi-Eggs)

They allow digimon to perform an ancient type of evolution, known as Armor Evolution, that was used more commonly in ancient times in the place of normal evolution. In Digimon Adventure 02, their most common usage is that they work in an area under the influence of a Dark Tower which blocks most other kinds of evolution. Most of the digimentals represent one of the crests possessed by the first Chosen Children.

Digimon Adventure 02
The Digimon Kaiser's dark towers prevented the normal evolution of Digimon. Armor evolution by the use of the Digimentals bypassed the "blockade" and allowed the Chosen Children's digimon to evolve.

The digimentals would not have been able to be used if it was not for the events in Tag Tamers (sometime during the year 2000, immediately after Our War Game), where Ken and Ryou found the pieces and rebuilt them. The Holy Beasts then chose some of them to be used by the Chosen Children, and allowed them to be scattered throughout the Digital World. Though strangly Ryou still had the Digimentals with him when he was blasted back into the past.
