The cannon explanation is that gabumon wears discarded garurumon data and when it digivolves it’s digicore “downloads” the discarded data and makes gabumon become a garurumon. It brings up some questions. 1: what does garurumon digivolve from naturally? 2: what does gabumon digivolve to naturally? Really popular subject among the digimon community and I agree I love it!

@@Karn_EX Might be a good idea to do two videos, one focusing on the natural carriers like the Dorumon line, and the other being those who have gained the X-Antibody in some way.

[@AussieDragoon]

I have to say for myself: Weregarurumon is my favorite Adventure Ultimate and my second favorite Ultimate in the franchise next to Rapidmon. Part of what it comes down to is that I don't like Digimon on all fours, I think it critically limits what you can do with it in combat. Like with Garurumon, every time it faced something smaller than it that was as strong or stronger it would basically just stand there and take it since its not like it can block. Weregarurumon fixed that major problem I had with Garurumon and added in a really cool martial arts based fighting style...that it then lost when it evolved again which has always been a major reason I like Wargreymon more than Metalgarurumon. I have the same problem with the transition between Renamon and Kyuubimon & Gaomon to Gaogamon. It went from being a cool fighter to just shooting from a distance and doing shoulder tackles. For me, I prefer when Digimon get smaller and more agile as they digivolve past Champion/Adult level or at least once they get to Mega/Ultimate. Like I also hate Megagargomon because its so big and dumb and just stands there most of the time. Weregarurmon's fight with Myotismon will always be a highlight for me.

[@psgamer-0199]

I can't tell for sure because it's been over 20 years that I watched Adventure for the first time, but I'm inclined to say Garurumon might be the first digimon I fell in love with. Probably because I am/was a basic kid and I liked beasts digimon (Garurumon and Leomon come to mind) instantly back then. So I was looking forward to this video very much and... I'm so disappointed there's not many Garurumon variants as there are Greymon variants X'D But Anyways, I enjoyed this video 👍 I honestly don't get what is it about WereGarurumon that Karn classifies as silly (I always saw WereGarurumon as a badass, still do) but I don't complain about it because really, Karn is such a kind and fun guy, and he is definitely my favorite Digimon KZbinr. His content's great, he is great, we could disagree on everything digimon and I'd still subscribe because he is that good, and nice, and funny! Karn you're great and I really hope you get all the subscribers you deserve, which are millions.

I feel so heard!! That Garuru "species" is one of my favorites because I'm so polarized on them. I'm either "this is perfect" or "nah I hate it".

Honestly I do love MetalGarurumon X-Antibody's design. It's so different from the regular counterpart, but it also looks so cool. I also like CresGarurumon, it looks pretty cool with it's gold color Honestly I don't really like AncientGreymon and AncientGarurumon's designs because their designs were made for selling toys, same reasoning as Aldamon and Beowulfmon, where their previous forms were combined to make one entity. If it weren't for the toylines, I wonder if their designs would have been different

[@MajoraZ]

Totally agree with you on Black Were/Metalgarurumon and MetalGarurumon X here: I also prefer Black Weregarurumon because of the military camo pants, and while i'm meh on the normal version, I love Black Metalgarurumon, specifically in Cyber Sleuth where it had red eyes ands some other color tweaks vs the Bandai art. And like you, Metalgarurumon X is my top favorite here: I love the big chaingun arm it has and the missiles and cannons it has strapped to it's shoulders and such, I wish normal Metalgarurumon had more of that too. I think the one thing where we deviate is that I WANT to like Weregarurumon X, I really dig it's huge metal claws, but it's head/neck being almost devoir of fur makes it look sort of gangling and gross, which I don't like here.

As a Wolf fanatic i love the garurumon Digimon

[@Karn_EX]

[@zeroknight1311]

Garurumon X seems like a Metal Garurmon. And I believe that's why it exist. To be the Garurumon counterpart to Metal Greymon. Since the evolution lines for Argumon and Gabumon are often matching pairs in whatever they appear in. Plus their lines tends to be the Adventure Standard despite how there's many paths can be taken. After all, Were Garurumon seems to be the the one that can transition into CresGarurumon the best. Since they're both bipedal and its reasonable to believe that a Were garurumon just grabbed a weapon and used it for a long time before becoming CresGarurumon.

[@Karn_EX]

I think we're missing out on a "true" Garurumon Rookie and at least alternate versions of the rest of the line for Gabumon. It always kinda bothered me but peaked my interest, that Gabumon had Garurumon's fur as part of it's code. So, I think it would be a pretty cool idea if Gabumon was a Digimon that required having Garurumon data. Then Gabumon would digivolve into more beast/reptile versions of the regular line. Could even be something as simple as putting "Scaled" in front of the original names. Lol

Funny enough, when I was a kid, I preferred Gabumon over Agumon. But, now as an adult, I've grown to love Agumon's whole lines over the Gabumon lines. I think the only exception being the Light Spirit. There are just designs I don't like all that much (mainly WereGarurumon. Something feels off with him, clunky like you said) and Blitzgreymon just blows Cres out of the water. I still love Metal Garu but the Grey's just keep winning with each new addition. If Survive adds a new Greymon, I'm sure I'll adore it like Victory, Blitz, and War

I was really turned off by most of the X-antibody variants when they started debuting - and the animation of X-Evolution didn't help any. Looking back at the card art now, I can concede that MetalGarurumon X is definitely cooler than I gave him credit for. Still not an S for me, but maybe B+/A-.

[@holden4412]

My guy you need to do the same thing with all Leomon

[@Karn_EX]

[@infoglitchanimations4491]

I'm going to be honest I wish garurumon had something that was like Gaiomon taking the idea of the Digimon and then putting it in a different form so gaiomon was originally going to be intended as a black Wargreymon X then changed it to be its own greymon subspecies. So instead of it having claws it actually had two swords and I was hopeful that maybe garurumon would have had that same treatment since garuruman and greymon are a pair basically in Digimon. So maybe take the gun aspect that you get from garurumon and instead turn it into something like a gunslinger werewolf which now that I think about it sounds oddly cool (plus it also be pretty cool if it had its own mode like for instance gioman got itto mode or in English fierce blade mode, so maybe if it had its own mode it could be called something like berserk blaster mode) but this is legitimately just me rambling

Maybe we could try doing some more franchise crossovers. I recently have been wondering what Digimon that have acquired or appropriated Bionicle data could be like; especially in the case of the Toa. For those unfamiliar with Bionicle, the Toa are these guardian warriors that are sort of attuned to different elements; go check out the Bionicle wiki to see what all the different elements are because they have more of the base set, which each of the Toa sort of utilizes and embody but in this sort of heroic way. Bioncle's base elements, meaning there is a known Toa for each of them, are Fire, Water, Earth, Air/Wind (the movies call it Wind a lot but the wiki just calls it Air), Stone (Yes, Stone and Earth are different elements in this context), and Ice. So, 6 Toa, 6 Elements. Each individual Toa has their own unique weapon, and that weapon can (and usually does) as a conduit for their elemental power (even when used by someone else, interestingly enough), but each Toa has a unique ability that isn't actually tied to their element but more a reflection of an aspect of their personality in the form of their "Mask Power," so yes, each Toa mask has different power and ability. Granted, you'll have to go into each Toa's bio and look at the masks they had to learn what sort of power each mask has, So, the idea of these biomechanical beings having their life data basically copied and incorporated into a Digimon is sort of fun to think about. a MetalGururmon with the data of an Ice Toa could be fun to see, especially when you take the mask power of that particular Toa being superimposed onto that MetalGururmon to give MetalGururumon that power as well, one of the Ice Toa had the power to see through solid objects while another Ice Toa had the power of Telekenisis, can you imagine a MetalGururumon with supercharged Ice powers and the power to move things with its mind? That would be absolutely ridiculous; or WarGreymon with supercharged Fire powers with the ability to generate energy shields or turn invisible? Yeah, one of the Fire Toa has the ability to generate energy shields while another was shown with the power to turn invisible, the Toa with the power to turn invisible also had these prophetic-like visions but also suffered from confidence issues.

I get what they were going for with wargreymon and metalgreymon having alternated stages with weregarurumon and metalgarurumon, but it just makes his digivolution feel a bit janky, which sucks since the line is pretty good looking as a whole

[@Grandmaster_trev]

I always found it interesting how weregarurumon never has a tail in the anime but often does in other media

[@Numanuma282]

Hot take: Weregarurumon always felt like a mega counterpart to Wargreymon, both being a lot more humanoid in shape. Metal Greymon and Metal Garurumon felt like the same level for a myriad of reasons.

[@KeroKeroKuraido]

Literally the only change I would make to this list is swapping metalgarurumon x with zeedgarurumon

[@Karn_EX]

That's fair!

[@Just_B0red]

Would be cool if we could see list like this for all 8 main kids, or even 02 kids, but sadly they don't have much in terms of slide evolutions (both 01 and 02). Even if it was doable for 02 without the digieggs would Veemon be the only one who would have a tier list?

[@kingdeegalang]

I just realized the digiarmor of friendship is the same color as black metal garurumon

[@Karn_EX]

Oh yeah kinda!

[@zane4871]

What happened to emperor Greymon?

[@CrimsonMoonM]

BlackMetalGarurumon really grew on me thanks to the video games. The red lights across its body really stands out in Next Order in particular. Beyond that, I truly believe that BlackWereGarurumon genuinely looks better than the Vaccine counterpart, which is part of why its evolution felt like a bit of a let-down by comparison until it grew on me.

Givin MagnaGarurumon the RESPEC he deserves

[@etiaos]

So in the bottom left-hand corner of the screen there is something that's playing 8-Bit sprites, where could I find something similar?

It's weird, on paper, I definitely like the Garurumon-family more than the Greymon-family, wolves being my favorite animal and all (although despite me also being really into dragons for a while now, that didn't really help most of the Greymon-family), but somehow, I'm somehow even more "sick" of Garurumon than I am of Greymon (carrying over to most of Garurumons line as they keep a lot of its features intact, unlike Greymon, which might be where Garurumon makes up on the "overexposure"), and that despite Greymon definitely getting a lot more overexposure than Garurumon. Maybe it's exactly because my favorite animals are wolves, so the more I look at it, the more I can see overexaggerated features that, to me, kinda tear it away from that, like its overly long snout, or the tail, or how its pelt looks so... skintight. I mean, in a way, that's just the way Digimon were designed back then, but I just don't like it for Garurumon. Perhaps even more ironically, while Garurumon X basically fixes most of these complaints I have, I'm really not sure if I actually like it more or less, perhaps because without context, I don't think I'd be able to recognize it as Garurumon, I think it went a bit too far, but also it looking at least a bit more like a "big bad wolf" when that's almost opposite to how it is. It DOES work really well as a bridge to MetalGarurumon though. I'm a bit softer on Gururumon, simply because of how forgotten it feels, but basically, all I said above also applies to it and BlackGarurumon, they really don't take much from each other. My biggest hope would be that Gururumon gets its own, slightly more unique evolution-line, since the Garurumon-family is behind compared to the Greymon--family anyways... Astamon was pretty good for that, although it already had its own line in the first place. I definitely get the complaints about WereGarurumon as well, though I've always been partial to bipedal Digimon, and it's literally based on a werewolf, so I feel like I can forgive most of its awkward elements. Especially if seen as a standalone Digimon, not as a step between Garurumon and MetalGarurumon, because otherwise, yeah, it's very much just the odd one out. Though I also prefer BlackWereGarurumon. WereGarurumon X is definitely the best one though, kinda remedying its awkward position in the line to MetalGarurumon while still staying quite accurate to the original... although something about the tongue hanging out and the choker makes it seem kinda like furry-art... Saggitarius-mode is pretty terrible though, the modern wings clash too much with WereGarurumons wild, kinda punk-y design, making no efforts to really smoothen over that. I... honestly was never too big on MetalGarurumon, for one because it just felt like a step back to me as a child, on the other hand because it's also "just" a wolf-cyborg with weird wings and such... yeah, it just doesn't work for me. The X-Antibody is a lot cooler for me, because it takes more of the bipedal from WereGarurumon, but it's also not just an armored wolf anymore, it has its heavy weaponry right out already, and no weird wings. I'm still a bit more eh on it as it's still MetalGarurumon, and I think in general I think I would've just preferred them going for a more organic design. The bit about wearing heavy weaponry didn't really help ZeedGarurumon though, to me it just feels like MetalGarurumon with a cannon screwed on its back, where VictoryGreymon at least feels somewhat more unique as it went from using gauntlets to using a giant sword. CresGarurumon... is weird to me, I like the concept, a bipedal Garurumon using traditional weaponry, but... something in the execution just bothers me, the obnoxious golden armor with way too many edges covering its entire body, the pose... actually, looking again at it in the anime, and its New Century-artwork, it looks a lot better there, so the issues I have are mostly with its original art. So taking that into account, it's probably around the same level as MetalGarurumon X for me. I definitely agree on AncientGarurumon, its bulkyness might be what's dragging it down for me too. Honestly, when I first saw it in the movie, I was somewhat disappointed with it, despite me generally being a sucker for the Spirit-Digimon and everything surrounding them, but I definitely came to appreciate it more over time. Still, the fact that I can't really confidently put it over CresGarurumon, despite it being a wolf using swords, a combination of 2 of my favorite things, is somewhat telling. (Also note that for the WarGreymon-MetalGarurumon connection between AncientGreymon and AncientGarurumon, they also swapped weapons, AncientGreymon has blasters on its body while AncientGarurumon has a sword for each hand). Honestly, I think slimming it down a bit, maybe making the head a bit smaller, would already do a lot for me to like AncientGarurumon more... things for an X-Antibody variant, I guess... or for MagnaGarurumon, because it's basically perfect, carrying the cyborg-traits of MetalGarurumon (along with the artillery), while also keeping a lot of the wolf-like traits very visible, the over-the-top plane-like armor, and it can shed all that and go over to faster combat with 2 freaking lightsabers, it's great, definitely on top of my ranking.

[@blizzone7404]

I like that weregarurumon is supposed to be something different being bipedal but eh I think it's a big different going from a fighter to a artillery digimon to metal

[@xeroxoid7967]

Metalgarurumon X antibody is what youd get if the Heavy Arms Gundam turned into a werewolf.

[@MrYutbe57]

So what's stronger ZeedGarurumon or MetalGarurumon X? And WereGarurumon Sagittarius Mode or WereGarurumon X?

[@graduator14]

Unsurprisingly, Greymon and Garurumon have far more variants than the other Digidestined!

[@chrisa.2323]

For me, MagnaGarurumon with all his giant cannons and weaponry is S+++++ tier. One of the best digimon, full stop. But the moment in the show he drops all his weapons and he's just a weird lanky, pale blue, wolf baby thing he instantly turns into like a C tier for me.

[@minicle426]

Next. I vote every Kabuterimon variant/subspecies.
