Edit#3: 3K likes in like 3 days? Truly incredible! Thank you, everyone! 😇 Are we on the way to 10k likes next?😅 --- Edit#2: Slight correction for the Angemon --> Devimon digivolution: There's actually a 50% chance of it happening (and you need 50 or less discipline, as well). Apologies for the mistake 🤧. --- Edit#1: 1K Likes reached! :D Check Community Post for Update! Party Time incoming! - P.S: There's no way we can get to 3K likes on this video, right? 😅 ---- Hey everyone! I hope the audio sounds better this time around. I've been working on it, so I hope it has improved 😅. If I made any mistakes (or if there is something else wrong with the video), do let me know! I'll try to do better next time! 🙏🏼 I hope you all enjoy the video! :D If you do, it would be great if you could Like the video and Subscribe to the Channel. It would really help! 😇 P.S: Running away while your Digimon is passing out isn't a requirement for any of the Secret Digivolutions (in case I unintentionally made it seem like it was 😅). I just thought it looked funny 😂.
This was very comprehensive, but also absurd, but nice. the fact the game hardly tells you anything about the main mechanic is egregious though. the best my 14 year old brain could pull of was a greymon, so when it died so did my interest in the game. Nice video
Both Digimon world re digitize and next order was pretty much that, with some story changes and modernization though a 1 for 1 remake with new digimon and Megas added would be awesome
I still remember way back when, my MetalGreymon fought and lost to Ogremon and his lackeys and I was so pissed because I was so close to winning. Then suddenly the digivolution started and I was so scared because that was an Ultimate digimon, it wasn’t supposed to evolve further. In those few seconds I thought it was either returning to an egg or evolving into something bad like Numemon. When SkullGreymon appeared, I was so excited. I mopped the floor with Ogremon (after a bit of training and changing its moves) and it carried me through a great deal of the game. I felt like such a badass. Then when a friend of mine asked how I got it, I told him MetalGreymon had died and digivolved. My friend tried with his MetalGreymon and, when it didn’t digivolve, he started calling me a liar and a cheater, and saying that I had used GameShark to get SkullGreymon. Our friends also started seeing me that way. That still hurts to this day 😢
After you send this video to him say this in a deep narrators voice: ''Did you think me a liar, Brother!? Thou would'st believe me foul when all I'd fought to do was get mine own Brethren, his own MetalGreymon! You'd think me so foul as to use a GameShark cheat engine and not offer my own flesh and blood the use of such a world changing device? Oh Brother. You hurt me deep. A deepness that will echo for all of time, and into the next life. I only hope that in this next life, the next you will not be so cold and callous. Maybe it will be you that finds Digital Monster glory, and I will point the finger. But alas here in this digital dimension, it was you to cast the stone oh Brother''
22:52 Double digivolution is intended and happens if you digivolve into a Digimon which has the correct conditions to fulfill 3 requirements instantly. Digivolving sets your weight to a specific number depending on the species and it also resets care mistakes to 0. Ninjamon has a very low weight and MetalMamemon has a low weight and low care mistake requirement. By digivolving to Ninjamon when old enough to turn into an ultimate, the game will set your mistakes to 0 and weight to 10. This is already two requirements. If you also fulfill another (95 happiness, 30+ techniques or the stats) you will instantly evolve to MetalMamemon because you fulfill it's requirements instantly. There is no such thing as a digivolution delay if your level stays the same, so on the first frame your Digimon can move after digivolution #1 finishes, digivolution #2 starts.
@@TheGielnik The Digimon's level. If you change species without gaining or losing a level like champion to champion, the evolution timer is not reset to zero and another evolution can instantly happen again.
I was never that into Digimon, but I remember having this game as a kid. I never got very far, and I remember it being hard, cryptic, and grindy, but it just has such a nostalgic feel to it, even back then.
The Coelamon-Mega Seadramon digievolution happened to me when i was a kid, playing on my ps One. While watching the video, since it wasn't mentioned, I thought that mine was just a random glitch. But you showing it at the end made me feel special... thanks, I wasn't crazy after all...
A quick comment on Sukamon: there are actually a few other quirks that come with digivolving into it and then subsequently reversing it that people who want to play the game should probably be aware of. 1) For starters, since any Digimon can become a Sukamon by having their virus meter filled up all the way (and this carries over between digivolutions and life cycles alike, btw), if this happens when you have an ultimate level Digimon partner, your Digimon will have it's lifespan extended by 96 hours (that's 4 more days) by reversing this change. This is because digivolving to an ultimate level Digimon will give you an additional 4 days of life, unless you used a digivolution item to achieve this, such as using the fatal bone for SkullGreymon, for example. Note that this also applies to any other digivolution you get as an ultimate, such as Mamemon to MetalMamemon, for example. 2) It's also worth remembering that if you have a certain champion Digimon become Sukamon, after turning it back, it can immediately digivolve into a MegaSeadramon or Phoenixmon. The eligible Digimon are as follows: Airdramon, Unimon, or Kokatorimon into Phoenixmon, and Seadramon, Coelamon, and Garurumon into MegaSeadramon. This is because outside of stats, both ultimates require a certain number of care mistakes or fewer, a weight of 30 (you can be anywhere between 25 and 35 weight and qualify), and fight zero battles -- digivolving into Sukamon will reset the number of care mistakes made and battles fought (as will any other digivolution, for that matter), thus resulting in the automatic digivolution if you Digimon is old enough
Also a quick note on death digivolution as well, which occurs after your Digimon loses a life: it's possible to have your Digimon lose a life by becoming sick, and this will also have a chance to trigger a death digivolution. The only guaranteed way to make a Digimon sick is by feeding it a moldy meat -- there are a few other types of food that can also cause sickness, but they won't always do so, such as the happy mushroom, for example. Other than that, any baby or in-training Digimon, as well as Agumon, Kunemon, and certain champions associated with these 2 rookies (such as Meramon, Tyrannomon, or Kabuterimon, for example) will also eventually become sick if they spend too long in the freezeland area of the game -- you even have to exploit this in order to recruit Fridgimon. Edit: Also, a small correction to a mistake made in this video: while it is true that there is a 10% chance of death digivolution for Bakemon, Phoenixmon or SkullGreymon, it's a 50% chance for Angemon to become Devimon, but there is an additional caveat -- his discipline level must be 50% or lower, meaning the game must be displaying the blue face by this meter. If I had to guess why it's coded this way, it's because you can obtain Bakemon, SkullGreymon or Phoenixmon using the normal method if you know their requirements, but Devimon can only be acquired this way if you don't want to use the black wings item to digivolve a rookie into him. One final correction on this topic: both MetalGreymon and Megadramon can become SkullGreymon this way
On getting MetalMamemon immediately after digivolving from Ninjamon: the requirements for getting MetalMamemon are 10 weight, 10 or fewer care mistakes, 500 offense, 400 defense, speed and brains, and for bonus conditions, one of them is to have 95% or higher happiness. From what I saw, the only one that wasn't met was the stats, and to be fair, if you want an early ultimate in this game, stats are the easiest requirement to ignore by far -- I have consistently been able to digivolve to an ultimate with my first Digimon in this game, even when I played it the first time as a kid, by doing exactly that
Ive been wondering about this for soooo long! When I was a kid I had a Seadramon digivolve into MegaSeadramon after being turned back from a Sukamon and Ive never heard anyone mention it until now.
@@matthewkuscienko4616 There's no such term as "death digievolution" there is Death-X evolution but death digievolution is never officially used, not even in Ponchomon's official profile where it just says "Rumor has it that a Togemon will take on Ponchomon if it dies in an unforeseen accident" or Google Translated from Japanese "and there is a rumor that if a Togemon dies in an accident, it will become a Ponchomon" (weird how Google translate is better than Bandai Namco's own mtx)
@mattwo7 I only use that terminology because that's what I've heard it referred to as by other people. It may not be an official term, but if you really want to be technical about it, a couple of terms in Pokemon, namely "pseudo legendary" and "starter" Pokemon are widely used by people, and death digivolution does kind of make a certain amount of sense.
Dude! I recently restarted this game now that I know better how the mechanics work and couldn't be happier to see you making DW1 videos! Another cool evolution method to add to the list is to have a Garurumon/Seadramon/Coelamon and raise them however you want until they hit Age 11+. Then make sure the poop gauge is full and your partner evolves to Sukamon. If you take it to KingSukamon to revert to the previous form, it will instantly digivolve to MegaSeadramon. Same thing happens with the Digimon that digivolve to Hooumon. This is because when reverting back from Sukamon, the battle, care mistakes and weight are reset to the default values, so you instantly hit 3 conditions to digivolve.
@coopyrbrown3031 if you do choose to play it. This may seem extremely daunting, but this is one of those games that is so much more fun playing it blind with out too much help or guides. It can be very rewarding finding something or figuring it out on your own when you see how hard it can be blind.
That Kunemon infection part... that actually fits pretty well into the Digimental of Knowledges lore! A swarm of kunemon was popping up from nowhere and a number of digimon were using the DMoK to fight back against the swarm.
Playstation 1 was my first ever game console when I was a kid. I have vivid memories of playing this game with the help of my mom. Id get her help, and randomly decide to start the game over so shed stop wanting to help me lmao. I never knew about most of these evolutions in the game. Super crazy that at 30 years old im learning something new about a game that was very close to me as a child. These devs were for sure on something back then, but i guess a lot of games then had really weird or quirky things going on with them. Awesome video!
I used the monzaemon doll as a kid probably a hundred times. I never could beat the toy town stuff and I didn't have any guides so I kept getting nunemon. I was devastated when I finally beat toy town and realized I couldn't use the monzamon doll anymore
@18:40 i was that kid. I got a phoenixmon. It was phantastic. I lost it fighting gururumon unfortunately. I was using the command where your Digimon darts around with small hits. I got cocky and wanted a spectacular finish and tried to use my special main attack. Gurumon hit me with an ice breath. Killed my poor phoenixmon for good. That was 24 years ago. I'll never forget you Phoenixmon! 😂
Here is something for you - Coelamon and MegaSeadramon right after was the very FIRST evo I got when I first played DW1. And I was never able to recreate it afterwards. Back then I chalked it up to be a special "first time player bonus" of some kind, well, now I know the exact mechanic behind it. Nice.
No idea about those angemon type of evos. Incredible how well this game worked with all those weird ideas, truly gave the game an amazing sense of wonder that made it a legend 1k likes boy on your way lmao
I've had this game since I was 12 (2002) and only finished the main story last year. I had NO idea about half of these digivolutions! I'm blown away. Even 22 years on, and I'm still learning new things about this wacky game. Yes please to a Numemon run! Thanks for this video man!
Wow! I didn't know some of these! I only know how to get kunemon, nanimon, devimon and an accidental only once seadramon to airdramon but evolved to megadramon, not phoenixmon. that vademon is very useful. I remember it's the last one I need in the chart and I just had to let my digimon eat a ray gun. It would have been awesome if I knew these 20 years back. PS1 games continue to surprise me until now, like MGS and Castlevania SotN. DW1 endless grinding and training just to get a certain digimon! Nice vid 😊
I have had several of these random evolutions happen when I was little and I could never figure out how it happened. I just boiled it down to a glitch. Thanks for proving that I didn't just dream them up lol. Great video!
The first digivolution I remember getting as a kid was Bakemon. Weird to think the chance was only 1/10, i'm sure a lot of people in the comments have had this too!
I remember playing this as a kid. If I remember correctly the Kunemon, Monzaemon and Devimon evolutions are vaguely explained in game, and I'm sure everyone got Numemon and Sukamon at some point while playing, probably multiple times if you didn't treat your Digimon properly like I did. I remember getting Vademon, Nanimon and Bakemon accidentally, as I had no idea what happened when I got them. The others I was not knowledgeable about. Solid video man.
Man, I remember having a physical guide book for this game that I still have bits and pieces memorized, and it had none of this information in it. It's wild and I love it.
Thank you, after i don't know how many years alter, I finally understand how as a kid I pulled a Skullgreymon and a Devimon. From then on, as a 11 or 12 y/o kid I would write everything i'd do in the game in a notebook just so i could recreate the same digivolutions again, but obviously with the 10% and no internet I would have never guessed until today. I also remember having a Pixiemon that I absolutely loved and was so strong, but died so quickly. This game is so good, great video!
The same with my skullgreymon back in elementary school...in the 90s...bobody believed me one day i invited 4 people who had a reputation of not lying and showed them...this solved my issue.
That's weird, 14 years ago Remodelling was already pretty well known in Digimon World communities. I don't _think_ it was widely known it could result in a _Giromon_ yet at that point, but Mamemon > MetalMamemon was known, I remember posting about it on GameFAQs in high school, and I graduated almost 20 years ago.
Man, I remember back in the day there was no internet to look up all this and I already got most of all those digimons by random. I played that game so much
Nanimon is a Tamagotchi crossover character funnily enough. It's supposed to be an alternate universe version of Oyajitchi. Likewise Wizardmon is from the Magical Witches universe (a pretty obscure and thus really expensive in the aftermarket now Bandai vpet).
love the videos man! you randomly popping up on my feed made me revisit these games and every video you have put out so far is a banger. your channel can only go up from here
This game was truly amazing to me as a kid, i didn't really understand english tho so i was guiding my way around it because i knew Hp was life, and that was about it, i didn't even know you could charge the ultimates until an older cousin of mine showed to me the amazing world of internet guides. Only thing i knew was that i could not for the life of me get any of the digimon i liked from the show. I got Vademon once on accident don't even know how, that big brain carried me until it died of old age :( Good times, loved your video :)
Around 6:59 So going a bit into the lore of what would be the first Digital World (Because Digimon is a weird multiverse) there actually was an infestation of Kunemon's on it's history, so this place could actually contain some of the data that made possible this infestation.
I remember as a kid thinking the requirements for getting most of the champion and ultimate digimon must've been ridiculously hard to achieve since I would just get the same few every time (or a numemon of course) even when I felt like my digimon was really strong. Of course it's not that most of them are that hard to acquire, it's just that they're so specific and obscure and nothing ever mentioned anywhere. I'm of two minds on this - I really loved the discovery aspect as a kid and still feel it's something missing in games today that give you all the info you ever need. But it's also really frustrating when your trial and error only gets the same result again and again. I think it'd be cool for a game like this to have hints you could find in-game about stats you might need for certain digimon - not just telling you the exact parameters you need, but having the Kabuterimon NPC in the gym say something like "Today I'm training my defense, tomorrow I'm training my stamina - if I keep hardening my shell I'm sure I'll digivolve soon!" would give you a hint that H-Kabuterimon's highest stat requirements are defense and HP
Again you mind blasted me with so many unknown ways of evolutions even tough I played this game for hundreds of hours. I always tried to get Skullgreymon but never managed to do so because I always took extreme care of my Metalgreymon for example xD
With the first Ninjamon becoming Metalmamemon, while you didn't meet the stat requirements, you met the weight requirement of between 5 and 15, and likely met the care mistake requirement of less than 5 the and bonus requirements of techniques above 21 and happiness above 50, as well as enough time having passed to achieve ultimate. With the second Ninjamon, you were definitely below the weight requirement, and maybe the care mistake requirement.
@@truekampang6709 There is a hacked / modded version where you can get Panjyamon, MetalEtemon, Myotismon and WereGarurumon, but these were cut in the base game.
The night theme in this game was so calming, As a kid I loved this its what kicked off my love for the digifranchise and megaseadramon being my favourite and subsequent first completion. Digimon world next order is similiar but less dark or mystical then this game.
I’m a fan of Digimon, so I’ve been watching many of your videos. Trivia for you: “Party Time” is a localization of the original name “Potty Time”, because Americans thought it would be too much for a kids’ game
I found H-Kabuterimon simply by training a lot in all fields, I went crazy and went over 700 and 7000 HP/MP everywere, only staying with my Kabuterimon at the gym. I guess I got the weight right by chance and then it evolved. I actually went over 600 and 6000 HP/MP on my former attempt, but it still died. I then wanted to do a challenge of going to 9999 before reaching Ultimate. I got lucky I just chose a Kabuterimon for that again lol.
"You are what you eat" gone serious, but jokes aside, we all love numemon, and we all will love even more seeing you going into madness with a numemon :D
Huh, I never knew about that Angemon>Devimon Digivolution. The BT11 cards for Ange/devi from the TCG reference this exact interaction and I never knew! :O
I love digimon grew up with that and breath of fire series really love to see remasters of these series but great video love seeing ppl still giving love to digimon
Considering Nanimon's physique and looks, he reminds me of those physical trainers that deliver tough love (or so they call it). Maybe that's why you need to do what you have to in order to get him
I remember renting this game as a kid, I was super into Digimon (still am even, played through DW1 and Next Order again recently!). Had some friends over, doing the ol "make multiple saves/memory cards, play for a while, pass the controller" for fun. None of us had a proper digivolve happen yet, when at one point I lost a battle. Back in Jijimon's house my Digimon suddenly became a Bakemon. My friends took this as "oh, your digimon needs to die to digivolve". Queue them intentionally dying a few times, getting their Digimon to pass away, and being very confused.
I still remember my very 1st time playing digimon world 1, i couldn't train my digimon because my game would freeze (classic priate cd) My way to go was to get an Ninjamon by getting my digimon happy and getting a couple wins, i think 30is or 40is was what i had to do, and my ninjamon would evolve into MetalMamemon, i was able to beat the game with my low status MetalMamemon and a bunch of Revives (Thank you Mojyamon that trade it with my fishes), so if im not mistaken the trigger to make ninjamon to evolve into MetalMamemon was by having max disc/happiness and fighting a lot
Honestly, the reason why dw1 was so great was because of all the mystery behind it. And the internet not being popular at that time also helped it keep its air of mystery to it. Even after finishing the game multiple times i still find myself getting surprised over and over again with these unexpected evolutions. That is why dw1 is in my top 5 goat ps games.
Gosh. The 1st game was amazing. Still discovering new digivolutions to this day and I had the prima guide. The only downside was the mp consumption glitch freezing your game when you got a too op digimon.
Honestly would love a remake of this game, with maybe 50 more digimons and extra side missions and extended story. Maybe the same gameplay style and view, if not then it could work.
I mean, technically there is? There even one where you get two digimon to raise at the same time. Digimon World, Next world Order. can't remeber the name of the other one.
Never was as found of this game in terms of watching videos on RUclips as opposed to World 2 or World 3 but this is cool honestly! I love the idea of special evolutions even if only the Skullgreymon one makes sense in terms of evolution lines. But still it's cool. Especially to learn Phoenixmon (Houmon) was in this game. I figured she was introduced only in world 2 along with the other og mega evolutions of the adventure partners.
I'm convinced "Party Time" is meant to be a joke because Party and Potty can sound VERY similar with the right inflection/accent. Pawty Time, baby! To answer the ending question though, I think the secret digivolutions are fun. I only have played Next Order so far, but I prefer to have some mystique, so I rarely look at the ingame charts. More importantly though, having these in the game means even if you aren't extremely precise with your digimon, there is still a chance you'll get something decent out of it. If there are more targets, even a blind shot has a higher chance of hitting.
I got Bakemon as a playthrough when I was younger. It carried me through a lot of the game. Bakemon turned into Giromon and built my city up pretty well. Good memories. I was just winging it.
I'm very fond of Digimon World 1, but I think they got terribly mixed up when they tried to expand on the concept of the tamagotchi. This game cares way too much about "care" and "branching evolutions" and way too little about the action RPG thing. So what ends up happening is that it was mildly interesting for adults and incredibly frustrating for kids. I'm willing to bet, most people that played this as a kid didn't ever get very far into it, and whatever fond memory you have of it is the challenge of trying to make sense of this game that might as well have had hieroglyphs instead of text. If Digimon life spans lasted a bit longer, evolution was more streamlines, and the game demanded less time spent in both training and potty training, this game would be 10x more bearable.
i fully admit I am a mad man, but even as a kid I always loved how much Digimon World 1 is a larger more complex v-pet with an open world and not an action RPG. Oh I know it makes it near impossible to deal without a guide, but damn it tickled a very distinct itch and the extent that it focus on care and having that care effect evolution means it still stands out even with two follow ups in recent years that do the streamlining. And I get why they did the streamlining but it ends up polishing off the really interesting stuff to me personally.
@@Devimon4000 I wouldn't be against them doing a v-pet thing for the PS1, that would be completely fine. It's the way it doesn't mix well with the action rpg that is kinda stinky for me.
I played this game for probably around 6000 hours or more as a kid/teenager. There were so many cryptic hints of more to the plot in many areas, and i even ended up triggering scenes I had never seen before after beating it over 6 times.
It was a conplete mistery for me as kid. I really digged the open world component, the potential mistery it came with. Never went very far in the game, until 18 years later. I'm glad it was made the way you described it. It is actually a real virtual place I had to discover
when you use a digievolution item, until you turn off the game it will mess somethings an interesting form of exploit it is using one before evolve to a sukamon, then you don't lose stats and can train it to etemon easier
Unless I'm misremembering, Digimon World 1 doesn't have a requirement on evolution stage to use evolution items, so you should be able to use an Ultimate level evolution item on an Ultimate level Digimon so that you'll already have the stats you'll need. Or I could be wrong and you have to be moving upwards in stage at least, in which case you can still use an Ultimate evolution item on a Champion Digimon that is close to evolving as a way to prime your Sukamon.
Numemon only wouldn't be too bad, you don't have to worry about anything so you can just train brains, learn all their moves, let it die, get a new one, then train it up properly and literally shit on your opponents. Most of the RNG heart-loss ones aren't actually bad to get unless you're trying. 2 of my friends and myself when we were kids all got all of them naturally with no intention through normal gameplay. Even if someone played half as much as any of us, they would almost certainly get at least 1 or 2 of them. Skullgreymon and Devimon might seem like they would be less likely, but Angemon and Metalgreymon are both popular Digimon and we watched digimon, so we immediately guessed you could let Angemon die to become Devimon, or at least treat him poorly (I tried treating my first Angemon badly, and then accidentally died, but I had already accidentally gotten Bakemon earlier in the playing so we connected the dots). Then one of them got a Metalgreymon and we guessed dying would get a Skullgreymon. Now... how the absolute fuck did those 10% chances always work in our favour? I couldn't tell you, but I never had to try more than once to get Devimon at the very least (I only did it like 3 or 4 times total... but still those odds are wack, though I am the guy in games where I just get insanely rare item drops and think nothing of it, then later learn from a friend who has spent hours trying to farm it, that it was rare). It happened within 2 death every time, we never failed (to my knowledge at least, I can say for certain I never lost all 3 hearts before it triggered). Kinda always assumed it was a 50/50, it's crazy to learn it was a 10% chance. Same with learning you can get nothing out of the Guardromon evolution. Always thought it was a 50/50 of Metalmame or Giro cause it was pretty evenly split; again, in my experience at least. Suke and Nume happen to everyone. But I got my first ones of them when I was just spamming brains training to learn attacks. And I got Monzaemon due to the same reason BUT I decided to just go and push some story forward with the Numemon, by pure chance the stars aligned and boom, I had a Monzaemon. It was literally the first Ultimate level Digimon I had ever managed to get too. I think my next like couple mons I just got him on purpose too. Bakemon I got one the first ever heart loss I ever suffered in the game and thought it was just a thing that happened, but my friends confirmed it never happened to them, so we figured it was a chance thing, but the chance % never felt like 10... more like 30-50%. I got Vademon while running through the area where you find the NPC Vademon that you can recruit. I thought it was a thing for awhile but couldn't get it to happen again, obviously cause it wasn't a thing. I got Nanimon... but I certainly didn't use the secret way of getting him. I just got him. Is that even supposed to be possible? I was running up the area where Ninjamon attack you, south of that bridge and while running we stopped and my mon evolved. The most I could guess is maybe their discipline was minimum, but they def weren't super sad/mad. Hell, I even got the Kunemon by accident the first time, I was running around grabbing mushrooms and I believed that one of the mushroom spawn point had a high chance of being... a happy mushroom I think(?) so I was just going in and out of there a ton. After having it happen, I used it for the next several mons I got cause I love the insectoid Digimon (my favorite Pokemon type is also bug type... oddly I'm not very big into bug IRL though). Only ever got Phoenixmon via a normal evolution... I actually don't think I ever got a Kokatorimon a single time in all my playing. Only got Monochromon via normal evolution Only got Airdramon via normal evolution and an evolution item I believe Never got a Ninjamon, ever. Most of these "secret" ones happened to us naturally without us knowing anything specific, but yeah... a few are just crazy to imagine happening during natural gameplay and back in the day one of the best things about Digimon World was going online and reading guesses and rumors about how to get them. Or using the "guides" that were legit just guesses too in the end. And then the day came were my one friend learned that weight is basically the most important stat for the deciding factor behind evolutions and suddenly we were able to get what we wanted almost every time without fail.
I've wanted to play this game for years, but I don't have any way to play it. I've never been able to figure out how to make an emulator work either. What I wouldn't do for a Digimon World 1-3 collection lol.
Man i loved Digimon back when i was a kid , even more than Pokemon itself and i love Pokemon But after watching this video i realized that i'm still so into it but always had it on the back of my mind, guess it's time to check some of its games
As kids in elementary school, we played the absolute rug out of this game. Our playtime was well over what the game could calculate and we found all of the evolution. Obviously some by luck and some by trial and error only, but we loved this game so much.
13:50 Now I know why its called Nanimon... literally "Nani de fak?" Vegimon Warp Digivolving to MetalMamemon is cool. Generally the warp evolutions are nice.
Shoutout to Coelmon, my first successful Champion digivolution. I had this game as a kid, fumbled my way into evolving him and he got me through alot of the game.
The weird thing about evolution in this game is that it's actually pretty simple once you figured out how it works. There are basically 3 points you need to fulfil in order to evolve: Stats, Care Mistakes and Weight. Digimon will require a certain amount of Stats, like HP, MP, Atk, etc. However, all of them combined only count as a singular point, so if you're missing at least one, it doesn't count. The number of Care Mistakes is pretty much self-explanatory, but what undoubtedly, actually screws over most people early on is the *Weight* of their Digimon. Weight is pretty easy to overlook and a lot o players might struggle for food in the very beginning of the game. None of the starters evolves into anything that requires less the 15g and it's worse if you picked Gabumon, since none of its evolutions require less than 25g. On the other hand, you can also end up with Numemon later into the game by over feeding, since the Weight requirements also have upper limits in this game. (Usually, over 10g above the minimum) Lastly but not least, there are also the Bonus Conditions. Those are things like Happiness, Discipline, Number of Battles/Techniques learned. An evolution may have one or multiple of those. It doesn't matter whether meet only one or all of them, it'll count as one point regardless. So you can use those to to replace one of the main requirements that you find too hard to achieve. They're pretty useful on Digimon that only have evolutions with high Stat requirements, you can easily get MetalGreymon in your first life cycle like this. That's also Igamon evolved into MetalMamemon right away.
Care mistakes are anything but simple and self-explanatory. What even counts as a care mistake can have a video made on it on its own. It is possible to intentionally not feed your digimon and it won't count as a care mistake. "Ginoshie Gino" made a video on it 8 years ago and it blew my mind.
@@TheGielnik Care Mistakes are self explanatory in the sense that "as an Evolution condition, they just the number of them you make". If you're trying to avoid them, you instinctively will have some idea of what to not do. The main issue is when you're actively trying to get them. Now for what counts as a Care Mistake, it's basically 3 things: Not Feeding your Digimon when it's hungry; Not letting it sleep; and not getting to the Bathroom in time, which are essentially the same 3 things that count as care mistakes in V-pets. But since those weren't much popular outside Japan, it went over everyone's heads. There's definitely more mystique around it for people not knowing what exactly counted as care mistakes for the longest time than it being an actual complex mechanic. There are things that definitely feel like _should_ count as mistakes, but don't because the game is a bit too faithful to the V-pets in some regards.

Hey everyone!
I hope the audio sounds better this time around. I've been working on it, so I hope it has improved 😅.
If I made any mistakes (or if there is something else wrong with the video), do let me know!
I'll try to do better next time! 🙏🏼
I hope you all enjoy the video! :D
If you do, it would be great if you could Like the video and Subscribe to the Channel. It would really help! 😇
P.S:
Running away while your Digimon is passing out isn't a requirement for any of the Secret Digivolutions (in case I unintentionally made it seem like it was 😅).
I just thought it looked funny 😂.
Oh damn, Numemon only playthrough? Sounds like you're gonna have a lot of fun 😅
This was very comprehensive, but also absurd, but nice. the fact the game hardly tells you anything about the main mechanic is egregious though. the best my 14 year old brain could pull of was a greymon, so when it died so did my interest in the game. Nice video
ur slaying all the names pronouciation .. ahahaha.. almost all digimon names arnt read as english english.. but rather Japan English ...
dude, The whalemon to Coelamon happened to me and after a second it evolved to megaseadramon.. this game was clunky but so much fun
Hey man, after the first time, you can put any Digimon in the bear suit. I'm pretty sure I used to sprint to it and put trainer lvl pokemon in it.
Honestly would love a remake of this game, with maybe 50 more digimons and extra side missions and extended story.
Version 5 V-Pet Digimon 🙏
Both Digimon world re digitize and next order was pretty much that, with some story changes and modernization though a 1 for 1 remake with new digimon and Megas added would be awesome
Agreed. @@ZER0H0UR333 while next order is nice. DW1 could use some quality of life stuff and added digi's
@@ZER0H0UR333I’d be happy with a native PC port with modding tools.
Next order was basically that
I still remember way back when, my MetalGreymon fought and lost to Ogremon and his lackeys and I was so pissed because I was so close to winning. Then suddenly the digivolution started and I was so scared because that was an Ultimate digimon, it wasn’t supposed to evolve further. In those few seconds I thought it was either returning to an egg or evolving into something bad like Numemon. When SkullGreymon appeared, I was so excited. I mopped the floor with Ogremon (after a bit of training and changing its moves) and it carried me through a great deal of the game. I felt like such a badass.
Then when a friend of mine asked how I got it, I told him MetalGreymon had died and digivolved. My friend tried with his MetalGreymon and, when it didn’t digivolve, he started calling me a liar and a cheater, and saying that I had used GameShark to get SkullGreymon. Our friends also started seeing me that way.
That still hurts to this day 😢
You should send this video to him
After you send this video to him say this in a deep narrators voice: ''Did you think me a liar, Brother!? Thou would'st believe me foul when all I'd fought to do was get mine own Brethren, his own MetalGreymon! You'd think me so foul as to use a GameShark cheat engine and not offer my own flesh and blood the use of such a world changing device?
Oh Brother. You hurt me deep. A deepness that will echo for all of time, and into the next life. I only hope that in this next life, the next you will not be so cold and callous. Maybe it will be you that finds Digital Monster glory, and I will point the finger. But alas here in this digital dimension, it was you to cast the stone oh Brother''
skill issue
You perfectly describe the pro's and cons of this particular gameplay feature.
@@CheeseOfMasters I know. Still hurts though 🥲
As someone who has played this game for thousands of hours, I know how much time and work this video took, and it is highly appreciated
22:52 Double digivolution is intended and happens if you digivolve into a Digimon which has the correct conditions to fulfill 3 requirements instantly. Digivolving sets your weight to a specific number depending on the species and it also resets care mistakes to 0. Ninjamon has a very low weight and MetalMamemon has a low weight and low care mistake requirement. By digivolving to Ninjamon when old enough to turn into an ultimate, the game will set your mistakes to 0 and weight to 10. This is already two requirements. If you also fulfill another (95 happiness, 30+ techniques or the stats) you will instantly evolve to MetalMamemon because you fulfill it's requirements instantly. There is no such thing as a digivolution delay if your level stays the same, so on the first frame your Digimon can move after digivolution #1 finishes, digivolution #2 starts.
Can you explain what you mean when you say "if your level stays the same"? What do you mean by level? Tamer level?
@@TheGielnik The Digimon's level. If you change species without gaining or losing a level like champion to champion, the evolution timer is not reset to zero and another evolution can instantly happen again.

I was never that into Digimon, but I remember having this game as a kid. I never got very far, and I remember it being hard, cryptic, and grindy, but it just has such a nostalgic feel to it, even back then.
The Coelamon-Mega Seadramon digievolution happened to me when i was a kid, playing on my ps One.
While watching the video, since it wasn't mentioned, I thought that mine was just a random glitch. But you showing it at the end made me feel special... thanks, I wasn't crazy after all...
Well I am glad I could help you find some closure! :D
you, sir, have cracked the code.
the secret of world 1's cult classic status.
it's because this game is playground rumor incarnate.
YEP
Japanese already cracked it a long time ago by looking at the programming code and tracking the digivolution conditions from those codes.
100% Accurate
This is the beauty of this game
A quick comment on Sukamon: there are actually a few other quirks that come with digivolving into it and then subsequently reversing it that people who want to play the game should probably be aware of.
1) For starters, since any Digimon can become a Sukamon by having their virus meter filled up all the way (and this carries over between digivolutions and life cycles alike, btw), if this happens when you have an ultimate level Digimon partner, your Digimon will have it's lifespan extended by 96 hours (that's 4 more days) by reversing this change. This is because digivolving to an ultimate level Digimon will give you an additional 4 days of life, unless you used a digivolution item to achieve this, such as using the fatal bone for SkullGreymon, for example. Note that this also applies to any other digivolution you get as an ultimate, such as Mamemon to MetalMamemon, for example.
2) It's also worth remembering that if you have a certain champion Digimon become Sukamon, after turning it back, it can immediately digivolve into a MegaSeadramon or Phoenixmon. The eligible Digimon are as follows: Airdramon, Unimon, or Kokatorimon into Phoenixmon, and Seadramon, Coelamon, and Garurumon into MegaSeadramon. This is because outside of stats, both ultimates require a certain number of care mistakes or fewer, a weight of 30 (you can be anywhere between 25 and 35 weight and qualify), and fight zero battles -- digivolving into Sukamon will reset the number of care mistakes made and battles fought (as will any other digivolution, for that matter), thus resulting in the automatic digivolution if you Digimon is old enough
Also a quick note on death digivolution as well, which occurs after your Digimon loses a life: it's possible to have your Digimon lose a life by becoming sick, and this will also have a chance to trigger a death digivolution. The only guaranteed way to make a Digimon sick is by feeding it a moldy meat -- there are a few other types of food that can also cause sickness, but they won't always do so, such as the happy mushroom, for example. Other than that, any baby or in-training Digimon, as well as Agumon, Kunemon, and certain champions associated with these 2 rookies (such as Meramon, Tyrannomon, or Kabuterimon, for example) will also eventually become sick if they spend too long in the freezeland area of the game -- you even have to exploit this in order to recruit Fridgimon.
Edit: Also, a small correction to a mistake made in this video: while it is true that there is a 10% chance of death digivolution for Bakemon, Phoenixmon or SkullGreymon, it's a 50% chance for Angemon to become Devimon, but there is an additional caveat -- his discipline level must be 50% or lower, meaning the game must be displaying the blue face by this meter. If I had to guess why it's coded this way, it's because you can obtain Bakemon, SkullGreymon or Phoenixmon using the normal method if you know their requirements, but Devimon can only be acquired this way if you don't want to use the black wings item to digivolve a rookie into him. One final correction on this topic: both MetalGreymon and Megadramon can become SkullGreymon this way
On getting MetalMamemon immediately after digivolving from Ninjamon: the requirements for getting MetalMamemon are 10 weight, 10 or fewer care mistakes, 500 offense, 400 defense, speed and brains, and for bonus conditions, one of them is to have 95% or higher happiness. From what I saw, the only one that wasn't met was the stats, and to be fair, if you want an early ultimate in this game, stats are the easiest requirement to ignore by far -- I have consistently been able to digivolve to an ultimate with my first Digimon in this game, even when I played it the first time as a kid, by doing exactly that
Ive been wondering about this for soooo long! When I was a kid I had a Seadramon digivolve into MegaSeadramon after being turned back from a Sukamon and Ive never heard anyone mention it until now.
@@matthewkuscienko4616 There's no such term as "death digievolution" there is Death-X evolution but death digievolution is never officially used, not even in Ponchomon's official profile where it just says "Rumor has it that a Togemon will take on Ponchomon if it dies in an unforeseen accident" or Google Translated from Japanese "and there is a rumor that if a Togemon dies in an accident, it will become a Ponchomon" (weird how Google translate is better than Bandai Namco's own mtx)
@mattwo7 I only use that terminology because that's what I've heard it referred to as by other people. It may not be an official term, but if you really want to be technical about it, a couple of terms in Pokemon, namely "pseudo legendary" and "starter" Pokemon are widely used by people, and death digivolution does kind of make a certain amount of sense.
Dude! I recently restarted this game now that I know better how the mechanics work and couldn't be happier to see you making DW1 videos! Another cool evolution method to add to the list is to have a Garurumon/Seadramon/Coelamon and raise them however you want until they hit Age 11+. Then make sure the poop gauge is full and your partner evolves to Sukamon. If you take it to KingSukamon to revert to the previous form, it will instantly digivolve to MegaSeadramon. Same thing happens with the Digimon that digivolve to Hooumon. This is because when reverting back from Sukamon, the battle, care mistakes and weight are reset to the default values, so you instantly hit 3 conditions to digivolve.
Have I ever played Digimon? No. Have I even heard of Digimon World? Also no. Am I going to watch this entire thing? You betcha
I do hope you enjoyed the video! 😇
You've missed out friend
@@CrimsonWar5 I was a pokemon kid growing up, and have since fallen out of love with the main series
You're in for either a treat or a hairpulling experience with there being no inbetween lol
If you enjoy the game, grab yourself a vpet/tamagotchi
@coopyrbrown3031 if you do choose to play it. This may seem extremely daunting, but this is one of those games that is so much more fun playing it blind with out too much help or guides. It can be very rewarding finding something or figuring it out on your own when you see how hard it can be blind.
Numemon run here we go
Oh boy 😅.
That Kunemon infection part... that actually fits pretty well into the Digimental of Knowledges lore! A swarm of kunemon was popping up from nowhere and a number of digimon were using the DMoK to fight back against the swarm.
Playstation 1 was my first ever game console when I was a kid. I have vivid memories of playing this game with the help of my mom. Id get her help, and randomly decide to start the game over so shed stop wanting to help me lmao. I never knew about most of these evolutions in the game. Super crazy that at 30 years old im learning something new about a game that was very close to me as a child. These devs were for sure on something back then, but i guess a lot of games then had really weird or quirky things going on with them. Awesome video!
I used the monzaemon doll as a kid probably a hundred times. I never could beat the toy town stuff and I didn't have any guides so I kept getting nunemon. I was devastated when I finally beat toy town and realized I couldn't use the monzamon doll anymore
I am a Digimon maniac too since Digimon World 1. I can say your videos are spot on and very well made with some funny comments. Cheers
@18:40 i was that kid. I got a phoenixmon. It was phantastic. I lost it fighting gururumon unfortunately. I was using the command where your Digimon darts around with small hits. I got cocky and wanted a spectacular finish and tried to use my special main attack. Gurumon hit me with an ice breath. Killed my poor phoenixmon for good. That was 24 years ago. I'll never forget you Phoenixmon! 😂
Thank you for this. You're killing it. Great stuff.
Thank you, Sadlymagic! :D
Here is something for you - Coelamon and MegaSeadramon right after was the very FIRST evo I got when I first played DW1. And I was never able to recreate it afterwards. Back then I chalked it up to be a special "first time player bonus" of some kind, well, now I know the exact mechanic behind it. Nice.
I got almost all digivolutions of these kinds, except the extremely specific ones that I didn't even know were possible. Very cool video!
No idea about those angemon type of evos. Incredible how well this game worked with all those weird ideas, truly gave the game an amazing sense of wonder that made it a legend
1k likes boy on your way lmao
I've had this game since I was 12 (2002) and only finished the main story last year. I had NO idea about half of these digivolutions! I'm blown away. Even 22 years on, and I'm still learning new things about this wacky game.
Yes please to a Numemon run!
Thanks for this video man!
me too man! took me 20+ years to finish! congrats!
Wow! I didn't know some of these! I only know how to get kunemon, nanimon, devimon and an accidental only once seadramon to airdramon but evolved to megadramon, not phoenixmon. that vademon is very useful. I remember it's the last one I need in the chart and I just had to let my digimon eat a ray gun. It would have been awesome if I knew these 20 years back. PS1 games continue to surprise me until now, like MGS and Castlevania SotN. DW1 endless grinding and training just to get a certain digimon! Nice vid 😊
I have had several of these random evolutions happen when I was little and I could never figure out how it happened. I just boiled it down to a glitch. Thanks for proving that I didn't just dream them up lol. Great video!
The first digivolution I remember getting as a kid was Bakemon. Weird to think the chance was only 1/10, i'm sure a lot of people in the comments have had this too!
I also got it relatively easy..
Just make it too happy.
I remember playing this as a kid. If I remember correctly the Kunemon, Monzaemon and Devimon evolutions are vaguely explained in game, and I'm sure everyone got Numemon and Sukamon at some point while playing, probably multiple times if you didn't treat your Digimon properly like I did. I remember getting Vademon, Nanimon and Bakemon accidentally, as I had no idea what happened when I got them. The others I was not knowledgeable about. Solid video man.
Man, I remember having a physical guide book for this game that I still have bits and pieces memorized, and it had none of this information in it. It's wild and I love it.
The guidebook had so much incorrect information too, they didn't even tell the guys writing the guidebook how it worked.
Thank you, after i don't know how many years alter, I finally understand how as a kid I pulled a Skullgreymon and a Devimon. From then on, as a 11 or 12 y/o kid I would write everything i'd do in the game in a notebook just so i could recreate the same digivolutions again, but obviously with the 10% and no internet I would have never guessed until today. I also remember having a Pixiemon that I absolutely loved and was so strong, but died so quickly. This game is so good, great video!
I remodeled a mamemon to metalmamemon and mentioned it in a RUclips comment around 14 years ago and everyone kept calling me a liar!!
Experienced the same thing with the ghost digimon-.-….
The same with my skullgreymon back in elementary school...in the 90s...bobody believed me one day i invited 4 people who had a reputation of not lying and showed them...this solved my issue.
me the same when My gabumon died and evolved in bakemon
That's weird, 14 years ago Remodelling was already pretty well known in Digimon World communities.
I don't _think_ it was widely known it could result in a _Giromon_ yet at that point, but Mamemon > MetalMamemon was known, I remember posting about it on GameFAQs in high school, and I graduated almost 20 years ago.

Man, I remember back in the day there was no internet to look up all this and I already got most of all those digimons by random. I played that game so much
Nanimon is a Tamagotchi crossover character funnily enough. It's supposed to be an alternate universe version of Oyajitchi. Likewise Wizardmon is from the Magical Witches universe (a pretty obscure and thus really expensive in the aftermarket now Bandai vpet).
And the LCD sprite of its original evolution, Digitamamon, was literally just a Tamagotchi V-Pet, which look like eggs.

This game was truly amazing to me as a kid, i didn't really understand english tho so i was guiding my way around it because i knew Hp was life, and that was about it, i didn't even know you could charge the ultimates until an older cousin of mine showed to me the amazing world of internet guides. Only thing i knew was that i could not for the life of me get any of the digimon i liked from the show. I got Vademon once on accident don't even know how, that big brain carried me until it died of old age :(
Good times, loved your video :)
Digimon world 3 was so good. The music, card battles, so hard to figure out wheree to go at 7 years old but so good.
World 3 is my favourite Digimon game! Definitely one of the GOATs!
These digimon games are such a large part of my childhood. Thanks for the work on them
Around 6:59 So going a bit into the lore of what would be the first Digital World (Because Digimon is a weird multiverse) there actually was an infestation of Kunemon's on it's history, so this place could actually contain some of the data that made possible this infestation.
Maybe, just maybe. It was a BUG... I will see myself out.
It’s so great seeing someone love this game as much as I do
I remember as a kid thinking the requirements for getting most of the champion and ultimate digimon must've been ridiculously hard to achieve since I would just get the same few every time (or a numemon of course) even when I felt like my digimon was really strong. Of course it's not that most of them are that hard to acquire, it's just that they're so specific and obscure and nothing ever mentioned anywhere.
I'm of two minds on this - I really loved the discovery aspect as a kid and still feel it's something missing in games today that give you all the info you ever need. But it's also really frustrating when your trial and error only gets the same result again and again. I think it'd be cool for a game like this to have hints you could find in-game about stats you might need for certain digimon - not just telling you the exact parameters you need, but having the Kabuterimon NPC in the gym say something like "Today I'm training my defense, tomorrow I'm training my stamina - if I keep hardening my shell I'm sure I'll digivolve soon!" would give you a hint that H-Kabuterimon's highest stat requirements are defense and HP
Underrated channel for Digimon World contents. Keep up the good work!
i did the seadramon/airdramon/phonixmon back in the days at random :O i was so confused and happy to win many digimon back into the city with it

Again you mind blasted me with so many unknown ways of evolutions even tough I played this game for hundreds of hours. I always tried to get Skullgreymon but never managed to do so because I always took extreme care of my Metalgreymon for example xD
33:51 lmao 🤣 yooo! That's dope af!
I appreciate that people still play and talk about this game to this day ❤️
With the first Ninjamon becoming Metalmamemon, while you didn't meet the stat requirements, you met the weight requirement of between 5 and 15, and likely met the care mistake requirement of less than 5 the and bonus requirements of techniques above 21 and happiness above 50, as well as enough time having passed to achieve ultimate. With the second Ninjamon, you were definitely below the weight requirement, and maybe the care mistake requirement.
Ah yes, that makes sense! :D
Man I was a kid back then playing this and these secrets with the Digivolution where so mystic. I loved every bit of it.

The night theme in this game was so calming, As a kid I loved this its what kicked off my love for the digifranchise and megaseadramon being my favourite and subsequent first completion. Digimon world next order is similiar but less dark or mystical then this game.
I’m a fan of Digimon, so I’ve been watching many of your videos.
Trivia for you: “Party Time” is a localization of the original name “Potty Time”, because Americans thought it would be too much for a kids’ game
That explains a lot. Thank you.
goburimon was mistranslated. as was the palmon variant.
When I was a child I was really interested in this game now you are making me wanna play it again
I found H-Kabuterimon simply by training a lot in all fields, I went crazy and went over 700 and 7000 HP/MP everywere, only staying with my Kabuterimon at the gym. I guess I got the weight right by chance and then it evolved. I actually went over 600 and 6000 HP/MP on my former attempt, but it still died. I then wanted to do a challenge of going to 9999 before reaching Ultimate. I got lucky I just chose a Kabuterimon for that again lol.
"You are what you eat" gone serious, but jokes aside, we all love numemon, and we all will love even more seeing you going into madness with a numemon :D
Huh, I never knew about that Angemon>Devimon Digivolution. The BT11 cards for Ange/devi from the TCG reference this exact interaction and I never knew! :O

Considering Nanimon's physique and looks, he reminds me of those physical trainers that deliver tough love (or so they call it). Maybe that's why you need to do what you have to in order to get him
I remember renting this game as a kid, I was super into Digimon (still am even, played through DW1 and Next Order again recently!). Had some friends over, doing the ol "make multiple saves/memory cards, play for a while, pass the controller" for fun. None of us had a proper digivolve happen yet, when at one point I lost a battle. Back in Jijimon's house my Digimon suddenly became a Bakemon. My friends took this as "oh, your digimon needs to die to digivolve". Queue them intentionally dying a few times, getting their Digimon to pass away, and being very confused.
That Numemon solo run looks like it's going to happen
Damn used to play this as a kid and had NO IDEA what I was doing. Such a blast from the past, and really well explained and informative!
I still remember my very 1st time playing digimon world 1, i couldn't train my digimon because my game would freeze (classic priate cd)
My way to go was to get an Ninjamon by getting my digimon happy and getting a couple wins, i think 30is or 40is was what i had to do, and my ninjamon would evolve into MetalMamemon, i was able to beat the game with my low status MetalMamemon and a bunch of Revives (Thank you Mojyamon that trade it with my fishes), so if im not mistaken the trigger to make ninjamon to evolve into MetalMamemon was by having max disc/happiness and fighting a lot
Honestly, the reason why dw1 was so great was because of all the mystery behind it. And the internet not being popular at that time also helped it keep its air of mystery to it. Even after finishing the game multiple times i still find myself getting surprised over and over again with these unexpected evolutions. That is why dw1 is in my top 5 goat ps games.
Gosh. The 1st game was amazing. Still discovering new digivolutions to this day and I had the prima guide. The only downside was the mp consumption glitch freezing your game when you got a too op digimon.
Ah the strategy guides! Just flipping through them used to be fun for me back in the day! :D

Thanks for the great Digimon World video!
Honestly would love a remake of this game, with maybe 50 more digimons and extra side missions and extended story. Maybe the same gameplay style and view, if not then it could work.
I mean, technically there is? There even one where you get two digimon to raise at the same time. Digimon World, Next world Order. can't remeber the name of the other one.
This game stood out in my memory even though as a kid I couldn't figure out how to get good Digimon and was too scared to go past the Drill Tunnel.
I remember getting MetalGeymon just for it to Evolve into SkullGrey like a few hours later
Never was as found of this game in terms of watching videos on RUclips as opposed to World 2 or World 3 but this is cool honestly! I love the idea of special evolutions even if only the Skullgreymon one makes sense in terms of evolution lines. But still it's cool. Especially to learn Phoenixmon (Houmon) was in this game. I figured she was introduced only in world 2 along with the other og mega evolutions of the adventure partners.
I'm convinced "Party Time" is meant to be a joke because Party and Potty can sound VERY similar with the right inflection/accent. Pawty Time, baby!
To answer the ending question though, I think the secret digivolutions are fun. I only have played Next Order so far, but I prefer to have some mystique, so I rarely look at the ingame charts. More importantly though, having these in the game means even if you aren't extremely precise with your digimon, there is still a chance you'll get something decent out of it. If there are more targets, even a blind shot has a higher chance of hitting.
I got Bakemon as a playthrough when I was younger. It carried me through a lot of the game. Bakemon turned into Giromon and built my city up pretty well. Good memories. I was just winging it.
I'm very fond of Digimon World 1, but I think they got terribly mixed up when they tried to expand on the concept of the tamagotchi. This game cares way too much about "care" and "branching evolutions" and way too little about the action RPG thing.
So what ends up happening is that it was mildly interesting for adults and incredibly frustrating for kids. I'm willing to bet, most people that played this as a kid didn't ever get very far into it, and whatever fond memory you have of it is the challenge of trying to make sense of this game that might as well have had hieroglyphs instead of text.
If Digimon life spans lasted a bit longer, evolution was more streamlines, and the game demanded less time spent in both training and potty training, this game would be 10x more bearable.
i fully admit I am a mad man, but even as a kid I always loved how much Digimon World 1 is a larger more complex v-pet with an open world and not an action RPG. Oh I know it makes it near impossible to deal without a guide, but damn it tickled a very distinct itch and the extent that it focus on care and having that care effect evolution means it still stands out even with two follow ups in recent years that do the streamlining. And I get why they did the streamlining but it ends up polishing off the really interesting stuff to me personally.
@@Devimon4000 I wouldn't be against them doing a v-pet thing for the PS1, that would be completely fine. It's the way it doesn't mix well with the action rpg that is kinda stinky for me.
I played this game for probably around 6000 hours or more as a kid/teenager. There were so many cryptic hints of more to the plot in many areas, and i even ended up triggering scenes I had never seen before after beating it over 6 times.
nah, git gud
It was a conplete mistery for me as kid. I really digged the open world component, the potential mistery it came with. Never went very far in the game, until 18 years later. I'm glad it was made the way you described it. It is actually a real virtual place I had to discover
The numemon run is something I'd love to see someone else suffer through. You got this!Liked and subscribed
when you use a digievolution item, until you turn off the game it will mess somethings
an interesting form of exploit it is using one before evolve to a sukamon, then you don't lose stats and can train it to etemon easier
Unless I'm misremembering, Digimon World 1 doesn't have a requirement on evolution stage to use evolution items, so you should be able to use an Ultimate level evolution item on an Ultimate level Digimon so that you'll already have the stats you'll need.
Or I could be wrong and you have to be moving upwards in stage at least, in which case you can still use an Ultimate evolution item on a Champion Digimon that is close to evolving as a way to prime your Sukamon.
Have never played they games and only watched the first show but you got me hooked on these videos
Numemon only wouldn't be too bad, you don't have to worry about anything so you can just train brains, learn all their moves, let it die, get a new one, then train it up properly and literally shit on your opponents.
Most of the RNG heart-loss ones aren't actually bad to get unless you're trying. 2 of my friends and myself when we were kids all got all of them naturally with no intention through normal gameplay. Even if someone played half as much as any of us, they would almost certainly get at least 1 or 2 of them. Skullgreymon and Devimon might seem like they would be less likely, but Angemon and Metalgreymon are both popular Digimon and we watched digimon, so we immediately guessed you could let Angemon die to become Devimon, or at least treat him poorly (I tried treating my first Angemon badly, and then accidentally died, but I had already accidentally gotten Bakemon earlier in the playing so we connected the dots). Then one of them got a Metalgreymon and we guessed dying would get a Skullgreymon. Now... how the absolute fuck did those 10% chances always work in our favour? I couldn't tell you, but I never had to try more than once to get Devimon at the very least (I only did it like 3 or 4 times total... but still those odds are wack, though I am the guy in games where I just get insanely rare item drops and think nothing of it, then later learn from a friend who has spent hours trying to farm it, that it was rare). It happened within 2 death every time, we never failed (to my knowledge at least, I can say for certain I never lost all 3 hearts before it triggered). Kinda always assumed it was a 50/50, it's crazy to learn it was a 10% chance. Same with learning you can get nothing out of the Guardromon evolution. Always thought it was a 50/50 of Metalmame or Giro cause it was pretty evenly split; again, in my experience at least.
Suke and Nume happen to everyone. But I got my first ones of them when I was just spamming brains training to learn attacks.
And I got Monzaemon due to the same reason BUT I decided to just go and push some story forward with the Numemon, by pure chance the stars aligned and boom, I had a Monzaemon. It was literally the first Ultimate level Digimon I had ever managed to get too. I think my next like couple mons I just got him on purpose too.
Bakemon I got one the first ever heart loss I ever suffered in the game and thought it was just a thing that happened, but my friends confirmed it never happened to them, so we figured it was a chance thing, but the chance % never felt like 10... more like 30-50%.
I got Vademon while running through the area where you find the NPC Vademon that you can recruit. I thought it was a thing for awhile but couldn't get it to happen again, obviously cause it wasn't a thing.
I got Nanimon... but I certainly didn't use the secret way of getting him. I just got him. Is that even supposed to be possible? I was running up the area where Ninjamon attack you, south of that bridge and while running we stopped and my mon evolved. The most I could guess is maybe their discipline was minimum, but they def weren't super sad/mad.
Hell, I even got the Kunemon by accident the first time, I was running around grabbing mushrooms and I believed that one of the mushroom spawn point had a high chance of being... a happy mushroom I think(?) so I was just going in and out of there a ton. After having it happen, I used it for the next several mons I got cause I love the insectoid Digimon (my favorite Pokemon type is also bug type... oddly I'm not very big into bug IRL though).
Only ever got Phoenixmon via a normal evolution... I actually don't think I ever got a Kokatorimon a single time in all my playing.
Only got Monochromon via normal evolution
Only got Airdramon via normal evolution and an evolution item I believe
Never got a Ninjamon, ever.
Most of these "secret" ones happened to us naturally without us knowing anything specific, but yeah... a few are just crazy to imagine happening during natural gameplay and back in the day one of the best things about Digimon World was going online and reading guesses and rumors about how to get them. Or using the "guides" that were legit just guesses too in the end. And then the day came were my one friend learned that weight is basically the most important stat for the deciding factor behind evolutions and suddenly we were able to get what we wanted almost every time without fail.
I think it's extremely cool that you remember all of these things in such detail. You must've really loved the game!
I love Digimon, and i really dont know why i find it so fascinating. And so much better than Pokemon, for me.
I've wanted to play this game for years, but I don't have any way to play it. I've never been able to figure out how to make an emulator work either. What I wouldn't do for a Digimon World 1-3 collection lol.
Duckstation is a very simple to use and modern ps1 emulator. It's become my go-to.
20 years i play the game and never known about the praise/scold method on vademon, gonna go test it, thank you !
2:06 also victory count.
Some digivolves needed it.
Man i loved Digimon back when i was a kid , even more than Pokemon itself and i love Pokemon
But after watching this video i realized that i'm still so into it but always had it on the back of my mind, guess it's time to check some of its games
i was so confused at whamon evolving into koalamon until i realised you meant coelamon. its pronounced seel-o-mon like the fish coelacanth
As kids in elementary school, we played the absolute rug out of this game. Our playtime was well over what the game could calculate and we found all of the evolution. Obviously some by luck and some by trial and error only, but we loved this game so much.
Do sidegrade Evolutions give you extra lifespan like turning into the poop monster and turning back does?
I started playing Digimon only 4 months ago, but it's great to see how the franchise was always this insane.
13:50 Now I know why its called Nanimon... literally "Nani de fak?"
Vegimon Warp Digivolving to MetalMamemon is cool. Generally the warp evolutions are nice.
I like that explanation for Nanimon's name! 😂😂🤣
Shoutout to Coelmon, my first successful Champion digivolution. I had this game as a kid, fumbled my way into evolving him and he got me through alot of the game.
Wait, bakemon was rng? I could always got it whenever i wanted
I'm super happy someone in 2024 is doing DW1 content
Subbed
Starting a series just like with Digimon World 2?
Hey Derjeniche!
Yes, I do intend to make content for each Digimon World game, just like I did for World 2!
MAN I played this so much growing up and into my teens. Time to go back I think
The weird thing about evolution in this game is that it's actually pretty simple once you figured out how it works.
There are basically 3 points you need to fulfil in order to evolve: Stats, Care Mistakes and Weight.
Digimon will require a certain amount of Stats, like HP, MP, Atk, etc. However, all of them combined only count as a singular point, so if you're missing at least one, it doesn't count. The number of Care Mistakes is pretty much self-explanatory, but what undoubtedly, actually screws over most people early on is the *Weight* of their Digimon.
Weight is pretty easy to overlook and a lot o players might struggle for food in the very beginning of the game. None of the starters evolves into anything that requires less the 15g and it's worse if you picked Gabumon, since none of its evolutions require less than 25g. On the other hand, you can also end up with Numemon later into the game by over feeding, since the Weight requirements also have upper limits in this game. (Usually, over 10g above the minimum)
Lastly but not least, there are also the Bonus Conditions. Those are things like Happiness, Discipline, Number of Battles/Techniques learned. An evolution may have one or multiple of those. It doesn't matter whether meet only one or all of them, it'll count as one point regardless. So you can use those to to replace one of the main requirements that you find too hard to achieve. They're pretty useful on Digimon that only have evolutions with high Stat requirements, you can easily get MetalGreymon in your first life cycle like this. That's also Igamon evolved into MetalMamemon right away.
Care mistakes are anything but simple and self-explanatory. What even counts as a care mistake can have a video made on it on its own. It is possible to intentionally not feed your digimon and it won't count as a care mistake. "Ginoshie Gino" made a video on it 8 years ago and it blew my mind.
@@TheGielnik Care Mistakes are self explanatory in the sense that "as an Evolution condition, they just the number of them you make". If you're trying to avoid them, you instinctively will have some idea of what to not do. The main issue is when you're actively trying to get them.
Now for what counts as a Care Mistake, it's basically 3 things: Not Feeding your Digimon when it's hungry; Not letting it sleep; and not getting to the Bathroom in time, which are essentially the same 3 things that count as care mistakes in V-pets. But since those weren't much popular outside Japan, it went over everyone's heads.
There's definitely more mystique around it for people not knowing what exactly counted as care mistakes for the longest time than it being an actual complex mechanic. There are things that definitely feel like _should_ count as mistakes, but don't because the game is a bit too faithful to the V-pets in some regards.
Damn, just found your channel. This is some great content, hits me right in the childhood
