[edit] Appearances

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

[edit] Digimon Adventure

Machinedramon was a member of the four Dark Masters (alongside MetalSeadramon, Piedmon, and Puppetmon) and the ruler of Digital City, which looked like a fusion of prominent cities on Earth. In his first appearance with the other Dark Masters, he unexpectedly attacked Angemon and then attacked the 7 Ultimate Level Digimon before they could attack him. When Tai and Izzy entered his city in search of medicine for Kari, Machinedramon's Hagurumon tracked them each time Izzy used his computer to plug into the network. Machinedramon sent his Metal Empire troops to hunt them down. But they gave him the slip so he retaliated with Operation Elimin-8, having Megadramon and Gigadramon bomb every building. When that did not work, he decided to handle the DigiDestined himself. When they ran into a building, he used his Giga Cannon to destroy it, sending them underground.

He would later learn they survived when WaruMonzaemon had been ejected as the slave master to the Numemon due to a revolt caused by Kari. After killing WaruMonzaemon as punishment, he found Tai and Izzy with Andromon, who were building a resistance force to stop Machinedramon. The Dark Master cornered the kids and easily defeated Andromon and the DigiDestineds' Digimon. It was then Kari's feet worshiping Numemon came. The slug Digimon tried to stop Machinedramon but were wiped out easily by the villain's "Catastrophe" attack. Kari collapsed and Agumon was hit by a beam of light, causing him to Warp-Digivolve to WarGreymon. He charged, slicing him up "like an onion" before regressing back to Koromon. Machinedramon's city destabilized and was destroyed as a result of the death of Machinedramon.

Although he speaks quietly, Machinedramon is as ruthless and insane as Piedmon or Puppetmon. He is a monstrous sadist who loves to destroy. He is probably the most intelligent of the Dark Masters, as demonstrated by his tactic of using Izzy's computer. However he is not above mindless destruction, and will murder anyone with no remorse whatsoever. His destruction of all the Numemon makes him the most prolific murderer of the Dark Masters.

[edit] Digimon Adventure 02

He made a cameo appearance as one of the Dark Masters who were mentioned by Digitamamon.

[edit] Digimon Tamers

One was among the Mega Level Digimon to aid the Sovereigns in their fight against the Digital World D-Reaper. It is possible it may have digivolved from Hagurumon.

[edit] Digimon Frontier

When Ophanimon told the Legendary Warriors about Cherubimon invading Seraphimon's castle, a Machinedramon was seen as part of his beast army.

[edit] Digimon World

In the Digimon World video game for Playstation Machinedramon is the partner of Analogman and the final boss of the game. His MP offensive power, defensive power, speed and brains are at maximum (his HP, meanwhile, is 9400). His skills are 'Megaton Punch', 'Thunder Justice' and 'All Range Beam'. If the player beats him and return into the game again, he appears once every month (this time with 9999 HP) in either Ogremon's Fortress, Ice Sanctuary or Grey Lord's Mansion, and his 'Megaton Punch' skill becomes 'Full Potential', which makes him harder to be beaten. After beating him at Infinity Mountain, he becomes a playable digimon in 2 player mode and will have the exact parameters as your Digimon had when he was KO-ed.

[edit] Digimon Digital Card Battle

Machinedramon belongs to the Dark card group and has HP of 2400, circle attack of 980, triangle attack of 520 and self-explosion cross attack. The real Machinedramon is VenomMyotismon's right hand man and resides in Infinity Tower.

[edit] Digimon World 2

Machinedramon digivolves from SkullGreymon. His skill is Infinity Cannon, which consumes 60MP for each shot and will continue to attack the enemies until its MP runs out.

[edit] Digimon World DS

Machinedramon appears as a boss during the game, having kidnapped Phil, a Digimon researcher, but you fight him as SkullGreymon. Machinedramon digivolves from Megadramon. However, you cannot degenerate Machinedramon into SkullGreymon, since SkullGreymon appears only as a non-obtainable boss.

[edit] Digimon Adventure: Anode/Cathode Tamer

A dying Kimeramon DNA Digivolved with a dying Machinedramon to form Millenniummon. Machinedramon later appears at the final stage of the game in the Cathode version where you must defeat him in order to face the final boss Millenniummon.

[edit] Notes

  1. ^ Phil inserted a chip into Machinedramon which caused him to de-digivolve into SkullGreymon.
