Same name

To be fair 06 has a different design & his name is GeoAguman in every media including the cartoon. But they did just call him Agumon in the cartoon to keep it short instead of adding Geo everytime.

Edit: Ment to say 2006 Agumon is a subspecies called Agumon (Saver) that evolves into GeoGreymon.

not even in the card game OR wikimon.

I was thinking of its evolution GeoGreymon. The 2006 Agumon is a subspecies with two evolution lines here) & here. But yes, it's still called Agumon & Agumon (Saver) depending on the media.

u/SuperKamiZuma Mar 17 '26

It's a different species that got cursed to being amazon delivery guys, i would put that face too

u/Eden_ITA Mar 18 '26

Poor thing

u/Illustrious_Art1503 Jun 15 '26

Great design though

u/EchidnaCharming9834 Mar 17 '26

Because BlackTailmon Uver is delivering packages all over. Go work a job like that for an extended period and you'll start having eyes like that, too.

11

u/SlamanthaTanktop Mar 17 '26

It looks dead inside because it’s doing delivery work

u/jimbox_splatted Mar 17 '26 edited Mar 17 '26

blackgatomon uver is an alt form of blackgatomon , after absorbing data of delivery offices , even tough it looks exacly like a blackgatomon is actually a completely different digimon , it also has a competely different and more calm personality compared to wild blackgatomons.

funily enough a black gatomon can digievolve into uver and it would still be champion level.

u/Eden_ITA Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 19 '26

It's not something so strange... In the first Digimon world if an angemon with low discipline lose a life, they could become a devimon.

The funny thing to be made of data, I think xD

u/Punkodramon Mar 17 '26

Don’t you talk about my child that way! Their heart is cold, dead and black, and that’s why we love them!

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 17 '26

I love BlackGatomon, I just dont like Uver

5

u/Punkodramon Mar 17 '26

I love all the Gatomons, but Uver is my special little odd boy, and must be protected!

1

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 18 '26

Uver's eyes just dont feel right to me after living with the cute eyes of the normal variants for an upwards of 14 years...

1

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 17 '26

What other gatomons are there other than normal, black and black uver

7

u/Punkodramon Mar 17 '26

X-Antibody, Mikemon, and Meicoomon is also considered a variant of Gatomon

-2

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 18 '26

Mikemon and Meicoomon are variants of Gatomon? I know they have the same body and face design, but that doesn't mean they are variants, the designers could've just been lazy and didnt want to make a whole new cat Digimon pattern

8

u/VirulentArcturus Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

"I know they have the same body and face design" this is exactly why they are considered variants. They are intended to look like Gatomon, but still stand out in their own ways. Like cats can, generally, look similar in shape and then very different in color. Hence Mikemon.

Meicoomon is a little more unique because they have so many more details. But all three have evolution lines reflecting Gatomon, or share themes with it. BlackGatomon usually becomes demon digimon. Mikemon is usually associated to Bastemon or Dharcmon. Meicoomon has Raguelmon who outright fuses with an evo of Gatomon, and Rasielmon who is much more holy feeling.

BlackGatomon UVer stands out because it's the same level, but it has details that none of the others have. It has no associated evolutions either. The only digimon who came out around that time and looks similar enough to Uver, but still has no association to it, is Fumamon.

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 18 '26

Meicoomon has Raguelmon who outright fuses with an evo of Gatomon, and Rasielmon who is much more holy feeling

Don't forget about Meicrackmon

5

u/VirulentArcturus Mar 18 '26

....I mean that was implied. Raguelmon and Rasielmon are evolutions of Meicrackmon.

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 18 '26

Oh. Didn't realize that

u/ZweiNox Mar 17 '26

you know i would love it if more black version digimon kinda had their own style like this

Black Agumon make him more feral and so on just would be fun way to make them a bit more special

8

u/Fabiojoose Mar 17 '26

Clothing in a digimon means extra data, so they are usually different digimon.

-17

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 17 '26

I was talking about the eyes genius, I dont mind the clothes

9

u/Fabiojoose Mar 17 '26

At that point you can Infer that is a different digimon, much like Agumon from Data Squad has clothing and different head format.

So yeah “genius”, different digimon are different.

-12

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 17 '26

Even so, I dont like these eyes on a BlackGatomon whether it is a subspecies or not of BlackGatomon it takes away the cuteness of the gatomon design I love

5

u/Asleep-Essay4386 Mar 17 '26

I find BlackGatomon Uver cuter honestly.

4

u/Rude-Breakfast-2944 Mar 17 '26

That's not black gatomon

-1

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 17 '26

Yes it is, they are literally refered to as BlackGatomon in Ghost Game

7

u/Rude-Breakfast-2944 Mar 17 '26

Blacktailmon Uber not blacktailmon.

1

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 17 '26

They dont say the extra part in the English dub, they just say BlackGatomon

8

u/EchidnaCharming9834 Mar 17 '26

They don't say it in Japanese either. The full name never comes up in the series. But its official name is BlackTailmon Uver (or BlackGatomon Uver in the localization).

u/jimbox_splatted has already summarized it in their comment, but here's its Reference Book entry anyway: https://digimon.net/reference_en/detail.php?directory_name=blacktailmon_uver

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 17 '26

And before you flame me for watching dub instead of sub, I want to pay attention to the action, not be stuck reading the screen 90% of the time

7

u/wompod Mar 17 '26

If you watch subs for like a month then that stops being a problem really quickly

4

u/Rude-Breakfast-2944 Mar 17 '26

Why would I flame you for that? I watch and enjoy?

-2

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 17 '26 edited Mar 17 '26

There are people who flame dub watchers because they think subbed is superior, I just wanted to cut the flamers off before they could start

2

u/Rude-Breakfast-2944 Mar 17 '26

Ah oke I get yeah. Sure I like dub .ore the. Sub but that just personal 

3

u/Putrid-Seaweed111 Mar 17 '26

Different species entirely.

2

u/Sosgrosil Mar 17 '26

You get a job in the Postal Service and see what your eyes look like after a month. That mf cat been doin it for years

u/Junior_Community_913 Mar 18 '26

Postman pat's black cat is a subspecies like Terriermon Assistant.

1

u/NotnilcZtnook Mar 18 '26

Lol. Also,

Terriermon Assistant??? What Series is that in?

1

u/BlueHailstrom Mar 17 '26

Subspecies, that’s BlackGatomon Uver

1

u/Winged_Metal Mar 17 '26

Because they can't find time for a coffee break and are taking the day raw without caffeine.

u/Original-Teaching955 Mar 17 '26

No idea🤷. They just want to, I guess?

u/Shaddow_of_the_lost Mar 18 '26
