Tactimon
Tactimon (JP: タクティモン) is a Demon Man Digimon whose name is derived from "Tactics" and whose design is derived from the Samurai. He is a soldier Digimon that possesses a peerless sword called the "Sword of Storms" (蛇鉄封神丸 Jatetsufūjin-maru?, lit. "Snake Sealed by God in Iron"). Within the Sword of Storms is sealed a sinister power strong enough to split a star in two, so drawing this sword marks the collapse of a star. Therefore, Tactimon battles without drawing the sword, but even so, he exhibits the destructive force of its menace.
The Sword of Storms, which conceals such tremendous power, is not a sword that just anyone can handle. From that alone can you understand the depth of Tactimon's true might. Even more than his merit as a soldier, he excels in strategy with plans which are even said to be, "ingenuity itself, as if gushing forth like a spring," so Tactimon's true merit is not in physical strength but in ingenuity. When Tactimon leads an army, the outcome has already been decided, and it is said that, "The victory has been decided before he even fought." Due to the various plans he has laid out, when Tactimon stands upon the battlefield he has already guaranteed his absolute advantage.
Description[]
Tactimon himself was the most powerful generals in the Bagra Army.
After Mikey and his friends arrived to the Digital World to rescue Shoutmon, Tactimon finds himself to wits end when they and Shoutmon's group claim the Forest and Island Zones he was attempting to dominate. After witnessing the Green and Island Zones being conquered and the enemies defeated by the Fusion Fighters as well as clogging AncientVolcanomon, Tactimon arrives at the Magma Zone to deal with the Fusion Fighters. Dorulumon told the Fusion Fighters that he was once a right-hand man of Tactimon. Tactimon then puts Mikey, Dorulumon, and Shoutmon in prison, but BlueMeramon freed them, betraying the Bagra Army. Later, after AncientVolcanomon's defeat, Tactimon easily defeated MailBirdramon and Greymon, forcing Christopher and his comrades to retreat.
After the Fusion Fighters defeated Kongoumon's MegaKabuterimon soldiers, Tactimon fought Shoutmon X4 (as X4B), but was no match for the centaur's strength.
After Matadormon and Breakdramon were defeated by Shoutmon X5, Tactimon was fed up with his comrades being defeated by the Fusion Fighters, and decided to deal with the members of the Fusion Fighters and the Blue Flare army in the Sword Zone. With Greymon's help, Shoutmon X5 (as X5B) blasted Tactimon into the sky. But suddenly, Lord Bagra sent Mikey and his friends and Shoutmon (and Tactimon) back to the Real World. When Mikey, Angie, Jeremy and Shoutmon returned to the Real World, Tactimon fed off the energy and rampaged. Shoutmon became his new form, OmniShoutmon, and fights Tactimon. During the battle, Tactimon sliced a bridge in half, much to Angie and Jeremy’s horror. Tactimon tries to destroy OmniShoutmon with his Ultimate Tactic attack, but OmniShoutmon manages to defeat Tactimon for good, leaving his sword to sink into the depths of the sea.
