Tokusatsu Franchises of Mirai

Graham: /* Hagane Yuusha Calibur Guy */

Just like our world, the world of '''Dial-Up''' has many, many children worldwide who thrill to the exploits of:

-'''five/six costumed heroes in rainbow colors''' sworn to fight evil with '''teamwork''' and a '''strange unifying theme''' 
-'''a man in a buglike mask''' and '''fancy armor''' over '''spandex''' punching out '''extras from kaiju films''' 
-'''grown men''' putting on '''robot suits''' and '''wrasslin''''. 

These are the entirely fake franchises of the world of DIGIMON: Dial-Up. Please enjoy them.

==The Hero Guy/Yuusha Guy Franchise==

The year is 1976.

The place is Japan.

A young director, passionate about the idea of superhuman cyborgs and their lonely battle against overwhelming odds and dark forces, creates a legacy that will span the test of time. In another world, another time, he might've chosen a grasshopper-themed mask for his transformed hero. But today, he chooses a beetle-themed one, lending his character a strong look.

"What a strong guy!" his son says, catching a glimpse of the design. "He'd be able to beat anybody up!"

A name forms in the man's mind: '''''Buttatakitai Yuusha Mighty Guy'''''

And the rest, as they say, is history.

(The similarity of early Yuusha Guy masks to the Justimon face-mask is entirely coincidental, we're sure.)

===Buttatakitai Yuusha Mighty Guy===

(ENG: "Beat-'Em-Up Hero Mighty Guy") The first series, airing in late 1976 and lasting until 1978. '''Machiro Keshita''' is an innocent young officer of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Force, who is kidnapped along with his older brother by the evil organization '''Great Terror''', his body radically altered by their evil scientist mastermind, '''Doctor Youkai''', into a cyborg monstrosity. Escaping from Great Terror's clutches due to the brave sacrifice of his brother, Machiro swears to protect the populace as MIGHTY GUY.

===Hitsuzen Yuusha Ultra Guy===
(ENG: "Inevitable Hero Ultra Guy") The second series, only running from 1980-1981. After the fall of Great Terror, a new darkness arose: '''Shadow Conclave Kumadeath.''' Worshippers of an ancient Ainu monster god who sought world conquest, they were betrayed by one of their own, brilliant professor of medicine and cutting-edge surgeon '''Tachibana Yukari''', who infuses her only son, '''Tachibana Okita''' with the superhuman power necessary to defeat them, before her death, and ULTRA GUY IS BORN. Was aired in America in 1985 as "MIGHTY GUY, THE MASKED HERO."

===Sandangamae Yuusha Crisis Guy===
(ENG: "Threefold Hero Crisis Guy") Ran from 1981-1982, it was the first series to feature form-changes for a Guy, hence the "Threefold Hero" designation. '''Dr. Kiryu Inoue''' was an astrophysicist working for the Japanese government; little could he have known that the government had been infiltrated by the communist death cult '''Red Satan'''! Transformed using his own research as a commando operative and sent to assassinate the Prime Minister and the Emperor, he instead breaks free of his programming, but must flee both Red Satan and the Japanese authorities in his quest for justice as CRISIS GUY. Alongside form changes (Jack Form, Dash Form, and Heavy Form), this marked the first appearance of a "secondary Guy", as Kiryu's protegé '''Amano Kazuhiko''' is transformed into '''Pursuit Guy'''--though Red Satan intends him to hunt down his mentor, he instead joins forces with him.

===Haearu Yuusha Sacred Guy===
(ENG: "Splendid Hero Sacred Guy") Ran from 1982-1984. Unlike the previous three series, the Guy was, for the first time, truly a reformed villain--'''Kojima Yamato''', an isolated young man who became a cyborg lieutenant of the evil underground militia '''Death Millennium''' of his own free will, out of disgust with the corrupt world; however, during an attack he lead on a Shinto shrine, he was rendered unconscious by a counterattack by the shrine's spirits. Nursed back to health by the shrine's miko, '''Uetsu Mizuki''', this gesture of kindness inspired in him a desire to turn his life around and follow a holy path as SACRED GUY. The form changes of the series were the first to upgrade in power each time (Talisman Form, Kami Form, Okami Form), and the first female hero, '''Angel Lady''' (Mizuki's "Guy" form).

===Haikyousha Yuusha Adamant Guy===
(ENG: "Renegade Hero Adamant Guy") Ran from 1986-1988. Recognized as a modern classic of the genre, this took the serious tone of Sacred Guy and developed it further; '''Narukami Touji''' and his brother, '''Narukami Shirou''', were marked at birth by the secret brotherhood '''Armageddon Solaris''' as the high priests of an alien god from beyond space-time; but destiny had something else in mind for them. For Touji, during the conversion ceremony, was awakened not to the will of a dark messiah, but to the cries of humankind throughout the planet, and became not a destroyer, but the hero, ADAMANT GUY....forced by fate to oppose his own brother, who would be the first "Dark Guy" in franchise history, '''Death Sun'''. Featured the first on-screen death of a secondary Guy--the episode where '''Hanagi Yoshita'''/'''Iron Guy''' dies at the hands of Death Sun is remembered to this day. Was adapted in America and censored to high heaven as "MIGHTY GUY NEO".

===Hariyuki Yuusha Ace Guy===
(ENG: "Lucky Hero Ace Guy") Ran from 1990-1991. While it pioneered the concept of multiple Guys in a series ('''King Guy''', '''Jack Guy''', and '''Queen Lady'''), the plot, which involved a high school dropout, '''Takai "Ace" Himuro''', and his friends all being transformed by the evil corporation '''Hell Wonderland''' into techno-magical card-using cyborgs trying to prevent a "dimensional collision", was much less straightforward than previous plots and things focused much more on antics and attempts at using new, untried computer-generated visual effects, creating a series that was pretty much a universal disappointment all around--it also was seen as derivative of the much more successful Kingly Sentai Royalger. America picked it up as "MIGHTY GUY: ACE" and ran it for three seasons; the latter two are a source of endless headaches for the Eastern enthusiasts of the franchise.

===Shouhen Yuusha Conqueror Guy===
(ENG: "Reborn Hero Conqueror Guy") Ran from 2000-2001. First series to be filmed in Mirai rather than Japan, and marked the reboot of the franchise after a nine-year hiatus.

===Gishi Yuusha Virtual Guy===
(ENG: "Engineer Hero Virtual Guy") Ran from 2001-2002. Peter probably loved this series a little too goddamn much. The American version of it at any rate.

===Junzen Yuusha Ultimate Guy===
(ENG: "Absolute Hero Ultimate Guy") Ran from 2002-2003.

===Mitsurin Yuusha Wilderness Guy===
(ENG: "Jungle Hero Wilderness Guy") Ran from 2003-2004.

===Hagane Yuusha Calibur Guy===
(ENG: "Steel Hero Calibur Guy") Ran from 2005-2006.

===Henryou Yuusha Proteus Guy===
(ENG: "Variable Hero Proteus Guy") Ran from 2006-2007.

===Sogekihei Yuusha Buster Guy===
(ENG: "Sharpshooter Hero Buster Guy") Ran from 2010-2012.

===Kensei Yuusha Valiant Guy===
(ENG: "Swordmaster Hero Valiant Guy") Ran from 2012-2013.

===Nenshou Yuusha Ryukishi Guy===
(ENG: "Combustion Hero Ryukishi Guy") Ran from 2013-2015. Griffin's show.

===Uchuujin Yuusha Zodiac Guy===
(ENG: "Spaceman Hero Zodiac Guy") Ran from 2015-2016.

===Kudamono Yuusha Sengoku Guy===
(ENG: "Fruit Hero Sengoku Guy") Ran from 2016-2017. The best Yuusha Guy, hands down.

==Super Sentai Series of Dial-Up==

You might know the concept better as "Power Rangers", but you know it nonetheless. Rainbow heroes, spandex, teamwork, get in a mecha and fight the monster when it gets huge.

===Mach-Force Sentai Speedranger===

===Kingly Sentai Royalger===
Ran from 1990-1992. One of the best-remembered of the Super Sentai series, a classic of the genre in almost every way, it featured a group of young high school students and best friends who discovered a shared secret--they were each the descendants of ancient monarchs of mystical power, and they could call upon the power of their bloodlines to become the ordained defenders of Earth's peace, Kingly Sentai Royalger, guardians of '''Castle Eternity'''...and they'd need the power of kings to face down the enemy, '''Barbarian Star Horde Xanadia''', and its fearsome '''Demon Khan Attilion'''!

Adapted in America and Europe as "King Golden's Magical Earth Defenders". The favorite show of a young Fleur de Croix.

''Roster'': '''King Golden, Queen Silver, Duke Platinum, Prince Orichalcos, Princess Electrum, Praetorian Hepatizon''' 
''Mecha'': '''Ruler-Oh, Ruler-Oh Regnant, Lancel-Oh, Caesar-Oh, Imperial Caesar-Oh'''

===Olympic Sentai Ballranger===
Ran from 2007-2008. Its creator is said to have pitched the idea by walking into a Saburei Corp. board meeting and simply scrawling HOME RUN on a piece of paper. It is time for the '''Olympics of Galaxies''', and if Earth cannot defeat the other planets at sports, it will be destroyed. Their only hope is a group of sports club members from rural Japan selected by the UN Security Council, who will be infused with the sports skills of the entire planet in order to become an unbeatable team.

Adapted in America as Power Rangers: Hit The Showers, which showrunner Michael Takada called "the most regrettable time in my entire career."

Digimentals

2018-06-09T21:38:55Z

Graham: /* Madness Digimentals? */

<div class="nonumtoc"> {{TOC right}}
Digimentals are crystallized memory data of past warriors. They are mined as highly revered objects for weapons and armor, sought by Digimon that want to learn from the past, or villains that want to use the past to take the present. Only a Digimon that has lived very long and died in an epic fashion can produce a Digimental.

==Digimental Specs==
Digimentals in an inactive state mainly offer power ups pending the amount of Digimental shards are in hand. When active, they take a permanent shape and bond to the user that properly activated it. The shape the Digimentals take depends on the will of the user. Once active, the Digimental can only be upgraded to supply more powerful evolutions, not refined into anything else.

An Armor Digimon is slightly weaker than a true Adult, and their Charge Ups and Final Charges are only 60% as powerful as regular ones. Upgrading using more shards, or activating one with several shards fixes this issue. Also, when deactivated, the cool down time is ten posts to a regular evolution's five, and they cannot Slide Evolve unless it is with another Armor Digimon. This is fixed with the latest D-Phone patch.

The good part? An Armor Digimon is constantly upgradeable and can be done so to remove these weaknesses, but the automatic reward is a lack of Evolution Clock. They are not bound by the 5-10-15 post limit at any time, nor are they effected by Anti-Evolution Fields, Evolution Viruses, or Overclocks that speed up time Evolved. For the sacrifice of power they are quite versatile. Besides that, they are able to lie beyond the three evolution line limit on Digimon, offering more combat options.

Digimentals that are inactive can be refined into weapons such as swords, guns, shields, etc. The bigger the weapon, the more shards are necessary. Shards can be found almost anywhere with the right amount of digging.

Another thing to keep note is that Digimentals are based on personality traits, and to lose such a trait would destroy the Digimon form it grants and shut off the Digimental to the user until they are deemed worthy.

There are only two ways to actually destroy a Digimental. The first method introduced was the creation of a Golden Digimental, which will burn out most Digimentals used in the process of making one. The second method only appeared recently with the program '''DigiBreak''', which destroys the spirit within the Digimental and rendering it a useless rock.

==Questions==
#Are Digimental Shards different from Digimentals?
#*Digimental Shards are just ''unrealized digimentals''.
#Once a weapon/tool/armor piece is formed, can those Digimental(s) ever become Active?
#*If a Digimental is used to make something, no, they can never become Active.
#Is a "Shut off" Digimental the same as an "Inactive" Digimental? (As in like a Friendship Digimental shutting off because the Friendship that activated it was destroyed.)
#*"Inactive" means it has not found the trait that it matches, thus it does nothing.
#*"Shut off" means it was Active, but lost the trait that attracted it.
#Can I trade Digimentals or give mine to someone else?
#*Inactive Digimentals can be given or traded to others.
#*Active Digimentals are Soulbound to their user.
#What ''is'' a Digimental+?
#*A Digimental+ grants a Perfect Evolution outside of the normal Evolutionary Line the same way that a normal Digimental grants an Adult Evolution outside the normal Evolutionary Line.
#How can I make a Digimental+?
#*It takes 4 Digimentals to make a Digimental+.
#So then, what is a Digimental Final?
#*A Digimental Final grants an Ultimate Evolution outside of the normal Evolutionary Line the same way that a normal Digimental grants an Adult Evolution and a Digimental+ grants a Perfect outside the normal Evolutionary Line.
#How can I make a Digimental Final?
#*It takes 8 Digimentals to make a Digimental Final. They are much more difficult to make and power, however.

 
==Digimental List==
The first are the standard Digimentals based on personal characteristics. They all grant [[Evolution#Natural|Adult level]] forms and can be upgraded to create Perfects and Ultimates. The level of influence they have on a human depends on the will and/or LoE of the user.

 [[File:Courage.png|frameless|right]]
;Courage
:Tamer acts courageously, fiery, generally a classic shounen hero or heroine. They might not think as clearly though. Tamer gains a red streak in hair, will develop a bit of fang, and have fire manipulation added to their powers, the strength depending on the refinement level of the Digimental. Digimon under the power of the Digimental of Courage tend to favor fire and to some extent dragons and dinosaurs. Though the latter isn't always the case a Courage user will always have the element of fire.

 [[File:Friendship.png|frameless|right]]
;Friendship
:Tamer acts..well..friendly. This is a person that can bring others together, that can hold a team together, but not necessarily lead it. They gain a blue streak in their hair, styled to be clean and very open,a ...well...friendly hair cut. They can have minor ice or electric manipulation. Digimon gain forms that are mainly beasts, wielding one of the aforementioned elements. They also tend to have great land speed. An interesting aspect of the Friendship Digimental is that in true form of it's name, it can create multiple forms with one user when created beside other Friendship Digimentals. That being said, if said feelings that created the form should sour, the form will be highly ineffective and will fail at random.

 [[File:Love.png|frameless|right]]
;Love
:Tamer acts very romantic, though it can be a calm, cool romantic or a frantic variety. Able to produce various kinds of flowers at random, and gains great speed thanks to the Digimental's wind elemental affinity. Adopt a maroon streak in hair. Eyes may become deeper and more sparkly. The Digimon gains a form that can fly,and some may have an Egyptian tilt to it, though that is not guaranteed. A form granted by a Love Digimental can be extremely powerful dependent on where he love is being directed. That being said, if the love is lost, the form will fail to function.

 [[File:Sincerity.png|frameless|right]]
;Sincerity
:Shy, sweet, and generally an all around good person. At the most extreme of influences it can turn guys into well meaning Peter Parkers, while for girls it turns them into those shy maidens you see in shoujo manga. People that are so nice they don't really have combat ability. Instead they guilt the opponent into not even attacking if they have even an inch of a soul, or it can sharpen their minds to the point of being quite superb, their minds no longer addled by lies. They always smell REALLY nice, even to the point of being intoxicating or sleep inducing. The Digimon gains a form related to plant life and many a time is based on something out of Japanese culture.

 [[File:Reliability.png|frameless|right]]
;Reliability
:Tamer becomes a hard-working busy body. If he/she makes a promise, you can bet it'll be fulfilled, though expect an almost fanatical devotion to keeping said promise. Endurance is improved here, because it'll be needed to keep all those promises. Able to bring out bandanas, hardhats, or caps from nowhere. Also able to survive underwater quite easily. The Digimon gains a form suitable for aquatic combat, though they can gain some minor flight ability to make land combat easier or can summon water in certain amounts.

 [[File:Knowledge.png|frameless|right]]
;Knowledge
:Tamer's intelligence is given a dramatic boost, turning the stupid smart and the smart into geniuses. During use analytical power is intensified, thought processes are like that of a super computer. However, can easily over think or short out brain if not careful. When in use the user automatically dons a pair of glasses and a bit of a know-it-all personality. They also gain yellow lightning color streaks in their hair. Minor electrical or earth manipulation is included. The Digimon gains an insectoid form, and is normally based on their personal attributes in terms of ability. They can be ground based or fliers.

 [[File:Hope.png|frameless|right]]
;Hope
:Tamer's intelligence increases though not to the level of Knowledge's, gains charisma and generally a positive attitude. A diplomat, warrior, and caretaker, Hope acts in such a way to give people just what it's called. However, Hope has a drawback. Unless the opponent is truly an evil soul, those under the influence of Hope will not attempt to destroy them, and only incapacitate. The Digimon gains a form based on a constellation and/or ungulate (hooved thing to the uninformed). They also have great land speed but are also high in defense.

 [[File:Light.png|frameless|right]]
;Light
:This Digimental concentrates the good qualities of a person and maximizes them to almost saintly levels. They become the embodiment of that little angel that pops up onto your shoulder at a moral problem. Even when used by someone with not so great intentions, they do something generally received as "good" by society whether they like to or not. When faced with anyone using Darkness, they get rather violent. They sparkle. A lot. Light grants forms based on mythical creatures and angels. They can perform in whatever environment the user desires, and generally have high stats all around.

 [[File:Kindness.png|frameless|right]]
;Kindness
:This Digimental concentrates on..well...kindness. Kindness users are so nice and sweet you feel guilty for trying to harm them. Sparkling eyes are a must, and they generally have ludicrous luck in avoding cataclysmic harm. Kindness Digimon are always cute little things that can have some surprising power behind them.

 [[File:Darkness.png|frameless|right]]
;Darkness
:The opposite of the Light Digimental, this one maximizes all the bad qualities of the user to demonic levels. They become the embodiment of that little devil that pops up on your shoulder that tells you to kick puppies and steal candy from babes. Even when used by someone with the best intentions, things are guaranteed to be on fire at the end of the day. Not necessarily violent but they will lose their cool when confronting Light users. Darkness creates creatures of mythical background and demons. As fitting, the exact opposite of light.

 [[File:Twilight.png|frameless|right]]
;Twilight
:The balance between Light and Darkness, Twilight users act very cool to the point of being icy and are generally quick thinkers. They are not above doing a dirty move to make a good deed, or performing a good deed to support the advancement of an underlying evil. They are just very much in control of themselves, and through that their environment. Twilight based Digimon are mixtures of light and dark, and as such tend to be chimeras, combining two or more animals at a time.

 [[File:Justice.png|frameless|right]]
;Justice
:When activated the user becomes devoted to the pursuit of justice...thing is is that "justice" is a very variable concept and the user will act on their own idea of it, normally in a violent way. Justice users don't experience great physical change but become more competent fighters, the effect of which is as variable as the user's idea of justice. The greatest change is an offensive and defensive boosting. Justice users gain the ability to summon items that represent their belief in justice. Digimon who use Justice gain forms based on knights and/or law enforcement. Species depends on the will of the user, so it's not required to be based on whatever the Digimon is.

 [[File:Loyalty.png|frameless|right]]
;Loyalty
:When activated the human becomes devoted to a chosen target, with their strength, endurance, and speed varying on how far the user is from said target. The most interesting aspect of Loyalty is that the closer to the chosen person the user is, the more abilities become shared, up to and including DE. Digimon under the effect of Loyalty tend to adopt forms based on the animal best known for loyalty, the canine, whether that be dogs, wolves, or generally anything in the Canidae family. The aspects of the form are up to the user and are quite variable.

 [[File:Mischief.png|frameless|right]]
;Mischief
:When activated, the human becomes mischievous, even the point of being a terrible prankster. They take on the aspects of a cat, being aloof, devious and playful almost to a fault. Their speed, endurance, and agility is enhanced and are able to use things in unexpected ways... such as turning a lime into a cat-faced bomb. Their damage potential is primarily prank-level and comes with the territory of being a kitty. Digimon under the effect of Mischief tend to adopt forms based on the animal best known for mischief, the feline; forms vary from just a little, to a lot of kitty, and can take after any sort of feline. The aspects of the form are up to the user and are quite variable.

 [[File:Deceit.png|frameless|right]]
;Deceit
:When activated the user becomes able to speak a hundred hooks, a thousand fabrications, and ten thousand lies. Deceit grants a charisma boost that when used correctly the user may never even have to fight to get out of a bad situation or by all means WIN one. The physical aspect of the user tends to make one more physically appealing, either by changing hairstyle, enhancing bodily points of interest, or changing up clothing style, all for the sake of being distracting while they talk themselves out of a problem. The form of deceit tends to be either reptilian, mainly snakes, or an illusionist, i.e. a magician.

 [[File:Stubbornness.png|frameless|right]]
;Stubbornness
:A stubborn old mule, those using this Digimental gain it by holding true to some belief, and thus are granted great defense against telepathy, mesmerization, and hypnosis. They do however have a problem with peripheral defense... Stubbornness Digimental wielding Digimon are armored or shielded, and are generally defenders.

 [[File:Regret.png|frameless|right]]
;Regret
:When active the user becomes very apologetic and generally downtrodden. They regret every action they take, have taken, and will ever take and are generally depressing to be around. The best word for them is "emo" though I'm not even sure that would suffice as a definition. A user of Regret tends to have a higher threshold for pain, able to get back up from moves that would normally lay them out. Digimon using Regret tend to take on ghostly forms, for ghosts are normally existences with past regrets.

 [[File:Stupidity.png|frameless|right]]
;Stupidity
:Like calling on the village idiot, this Digimental lowers the intelligence of the user to barely tolerable levels, like the characters in the movie Dumb and Dumber. Common sense is definitely out the window but in its place dumb luck of the gods has flown in. Please note: This Digimental has NO effect on Zealos Spear. Stupidity based Digimon tend to be laughable forms that are not much in terms of attack or even defense but make up for it in being surprising, such as having a particularly powerful attack, just that it's a random shoot. Stupidity Digimon are immune to seducing effects, up to and including mind control, as they are too stupid to realize they are supposed to be controlled.

 [[File:Ferocity.png|frameless|right]]
;Ferocity
:When activated this gives the user a very sporting personality, and they are more than ready to put 200% into everything they do in the name of the challenge. Digimon under the influence of Ferocity are normally based on sports or forms of martial arts.

 [[File:Heroism.png|frameless|right]]
;Heroism
:Dashing, brave souls. Heroism users are knightly varieties that will always try to achieve success by honorable means, and are quite capable in combat, turning their users into efficient weapon and unarmed combatants. Heroism users vary greatly depending on the source of the Digimental and what the concept means to the user. Wielders of these Digimentals are granted a weapon of their choice when active. Digimon who use this Digimental are considered knights, though once again, what their idea of a knight is decides what the form will be.

 [[File:Clarity.png|frameless|right]]
;Clarity
:A clear mind, undisturbed thoughts. Clarity is an odd ball amongst the Digimentals as it is based not on incredible warriors but strong minded noncombatants. Those that use it are granted no physical super powers but instead the ability to unleash the full power of one's brain, going so far as to have some physic ability. That being said, Clarity is also an oddball as a Digimental that cannot be used too often, as the human mind strains having so much power so quickly. Clarity Digimon are normally priest and psionic types, using the mind to attack rather than physical might.

 [[File:Serenity.png|frameless|right]]
;Serenity
:Calm, wise, and motherly for sure. Serenity users are in no hurry and are extremely hard to worry. That being said, when they do worry it's probably a good idea to run the hell away. Those that use Serenity gain the ability to use any musical instrument they come across with great skill, though the level can drop or improve based on initial familiarity and the intelligence of the user. Serenity Digimon are based on musical concepts, and like bards in role playing games are home to many buffs to improve those around them.

 [[File:Innovation.png|frameless|right]]
;Innovation
:You know that kid who takes apart his parents' vacuum cleaner to see how it works? This Digimental is the spirit of that very kid. It's close to the Knowledge Digimental with just a hint of Stupidity, allowing the user to try even the most foolhardy methods to see how far it can take them with often times shocking results. On the other hand unlike the more controlled Knowledge the user has a very good chance of becoming a mad scientist. When in use the user gains goggles. Digimon gain a cybernetic form, normally based on their species but that may not always be the case.

 [[File:Desire.png|frameless|right]]
;Desire
:A little desire isn't a bad thing, now is it? The Digimental of Desire draws more on innocent and good hearted wants and needs rather than the more chaotic and later mentioned Digimental of Greed. When using the Digimental of Desire the user tends to be quite thoughtful and willing to help people achieve their desires so long as they don't contradict their own sensibilities. In terms of abilities they are able to increase the power of other abilities including their own. Under the influence the user gains a lavender hair coloration. Digimon under the Desire Digimental are granted forms based on the creatures that are best known to grant wishes, that of faeries and angels.

 
===Sin Digimentals===
Digimentals based on the [[Seven Great Demon Lords]] of the Digital World. Sealed away, these are the essence of their beings. It is said the lords are able to communicate with anyone using one of their Digimentals. Special amongst Digimentals, they only create Perfect level Digimon, and can be upgraded to create Ultimates. Of special note is that the user and Digimon gain the ability to increase the strength of whatever sin they represent, corrupting things and people around them as true demon lords should. These Digimentals have a stronger influence on users than regular Digimentals have.

The activation command for Sin Digimentals is different from the usual "Dial! Digimental Up!" and requires the invocation "'''Dial! Digimental...Corrupt!'''"

 [[File:Pride.png|frameless|right]]
;Pride -- <nowiki>Purgatory Level: ONE_</nowiki>
:The opposite to Courage, Pride makes the user just that, prideful. Believing themselves to be infallible, a Pride user will waltz into any conflict quite sure of their power. Pride users gain an increase in speed and are able to wield light and darkness like the Twilight Digimental. Those with the Digimental can increase the level of pride within those around. Based on the Demon Lord Lucemon Falldown Mode, the leader of the Seven Great Demon Lords. Pride Digimon are wielders of light and darkness, but are more than likely to fall under complete corruption by their dark sides. Like Sloth they are mode changers though the more powerful full dark mode can only be obtained in the presence of defeat.

 [[File:Envy.png|frameless|right]]
;Envy -- <nowiki>Purgatory Level: TWO_</nowiki>
:The sin involving not caring for someone else being better off, Envy is activated by wanting to either be better than someone by improving one's own stock or deflating that one another. However, one under Envy tends to not be up for a frontal confrontation and will try to avoid it. Can increase the level of envy in those around. Based on the Demon Lord Leviamon. Envy Digimon are illusionists variable armed, able to adapt to whatever combat situation they are in, such as changing elements to an aquatic type in the presence of fire. As such they have the most versatile and largest opening attack set.

 [[File:Wrath.png|frameless|right]]
;Wrath -- <nowiki>Purgatory Level: THREE_</nowiki>
:A user activating this sinful Digimental is one to be avoided, as it gives one a dangerous boost in power by sacrificing self control. Users gain claws and fangs, as well as a vicious glare. Can increase the level of rage of those around. Based on the Demon Lord Daemon. Wrath Digimon are demonic versions of whatever species uses them, and are usually berserkers. Tamers hardly give orders to this type of Digimon and only take the time to apply Final Charge.

 [[File:Sloth.png|frameless|right]]
;Sloth -- <nowiki>Purgatory Level: FOUR_</nowiki>
:One of the deadly sins, the user becomes hard to motivate and is generally very lazy. Trying to shake them from their laziness enacts retaliation that should make your head spin. Users of his Digimental can increase the level of laziness within those around. Based on the Demon Lord Belphemon Rage Mode. Digimon under Sloth are mode changers, always appearing in a defensive mode first that stays for a few posts until awakening into their fighting forms. The design basis normally tends to be based on species though this isn't exclusive. The two modes will always be very different in temperament.

 [[File:Greed.png|frameless|right]]
;Greed -- <nowiki>Purgatory Level: FIVE_</nowiki>
:Another deadly sin, the user becomes absolute greedy, always in need of money, attention, and/or power. Greed is a dark, cruel version of Intelligence as the mind is given a similar boost but is always bent on self-gratification. Greed users tend to gain a pair of especially dark shades. Based on the Demon Lord Barbamon. Digimon under Greed are magicians of various skill set.

 [[File:Gluttony.png|frameless|right]]
;Gluttony -- <nowiki>Purgatory Level: SIX_</nowiki>
:Hungry? Of course you are. Users of Gluttony are starved for something, whether that be food, attention, battle, etc. Self indulgence is the key here and as such a user of Gluttony will do whatever it takes to satisfy whatever they crave. Can increase the level of gluttony around those nearby. Based on the Demon Lord Beelzebumon. Gluttony Digimon are demons capable of absorbing some form of matter or energy, and thus their forms vary in size and shape depending on the power they take in.

 [[File:Lust.png|frameless|right]]
;Lust -- <nowiki>Purgatory Level: SEVEN_</nowiki>
:Oh, what a deadly sin. Lust users become just that, lustful, and will devote themselves to the search of the pleasure. They gain a physical enhancement such as to the bust, muscle structure, abs, butt, etc. that is variable to the will of the user and whoever they plan to seduce. Speaking of which, seduction is an added ability in not only body but mind set and the right string of words are able to mesmerize most victims. Those with the Lust power can naturally increase the feeling of lust around oneself. Based on the Demon Lord Lilithmon. Digimon under Lust are normally demons, and are quite pleasing to the eye regardless of gender, and will have some sort of jarring weapon that they use on the enemy once they are lured in far enough, like Lilithmon's decayed arm the Nazar Nail. They can also have a mesmerizing effect on others.

 

===Madness Digimentals?===
Recently, strange Digimentals have been discovered. No one is quite sure how many of them exist, but there are some indications they may parallel the Sins and their recently released Virtue counterparts. Troublingly, these Digimentals seem to be based on the concept of "madness", or insanity, and inspire a total loss of control.

The activation command for Madness Digimentals is different from the usual "Dial! Digimental Up!" and requires the invocation "'''Dial! Digimental...SHRIEK!'''" They also create a '''Madness Evolution''', rather than an Armor Evolution as per usual...

 [[File:Despair.png|frameless|100px|right]]
;Despair -- <nowiki>Qliphoth Level: ONE_</nowiki>
:Seemingly based on “madness through sorrow”. This Digimental is beyond simple Regret--Despair is the total loss of hope, anguish magnified to a breaking point, e.g.: watching a beloved person or animal die in front of you, losing everything you thought you had, or the extent of your sins’ consequences brought before your eyes. It’s what makes you ask “what’s the point of going on?”--not just for yourself, but for everyone around you. Despair users gain a dark violet streak in their hair, and they are provided with some way to cut themselves off from the world; their Digimon forms are based around a mask, which hides their features and emotions, and become sorrowful shells of their former self.

 [[File:Tyranny.png|frameless|100px|right]]
;Tyranny -- <nowiki>Qliphoth Level: TWO_</nowiki>
:Seemingly based on “madness through order”, this Digimental instills its user an absolute confidence in their own will and a pathological need for control and mastery. While they despise chaos and needless disorder, they see nothing wrong with crushing free will, and their worst dictatorial tendencies are brought to the fore, while their emotions are dialed down to zero--a Tyranny user will almost seem robotic in their aloofness. Tyranny users can emit a low-level hypnotic field that makes their actions seem sensible to others; their Digimon forms are usually at least partly mechanical, and gain glowing red eyes. '''Note:''' This Digimental is intrinsically linked to [[Core Intelligence Ragnarok|the Fallen One]], and was likely the prototype for the Dead Numbers.

 [[File:Violence.png|frameless|100px|right]]
;Violence -- <nowiki>Qliphoth Level: THREE_</nowiki>
:Seemingly based on “madness through power.” Who hasn’t wanted to become stronger? And stronger? And stronger still? This Digimental is all about taking power beyond any reasonable zenith--the ability to cut down anyone in one’s way and be unsatisfied. Violence users are always looking for a good fight, the bloodier the better, and have absolutely no qualms about collateral damage. Unlike War or Wrath, users of Violence are chillingly lucid and totally in control, treating horrific acts and violent trauma with utter casualness and a slasher smile on their face. Violence users gain the ability to produce any variety of weapon, and a regenerative ability that deadens their pain and lets them keep fighting; their Digimon forms are usually focused around a certain weapon or certain act of violence.

 [[File:Terror.png|frameless|100px|right]]
;Terror -- <nowiki>Qliphoth Level: FOUR_</nowiki>
:Based on “madness through fear.” You know what’s scary? Everything. Even the most innocent facade could conceal a hidden darkness, a knife-wielding limb seeking to cut you down. The ones you love and trust? They’ll betray you. The ones you count on to be there? They’ll be gone! And your enemies, well, they’re never really gone, are they? Terror users are absolutely paranoid, convinced everything is out to get them or potentially harm them, so they’d better do the harm first. After all, if everything is destroyed, there’s nothing to be afraid of! Except maybe yourself. Terror users project a black, creeping fog around them that shapes itself into the deepest fears of themselves and others; their Digimon forms are based on nightmares and mythological fear archetypes.

 [[File:Denial.png|frameless|100px|right]]
;Denial -- <nowiki>Qliphoth Level: FIVE_</nowiki>
:Seemingly based on “madness through delusion”. This Digimental is all about playing pretend. Whether it’s pretending everything is fine in your life, pretending your dead loved ones are still with you, or pretending that your dreams have come true for better or for worse, a Denial Digimental will help you get lost in a fantasyland all your own, like a never-ending hallucination. Denial users become entranced, and are continually levitating as if unaffected by gravity, sometimes gaining the ability to phase through objects as if intangible; they also project a hallucinatory field that lets them share their delusions with others. Their Digimon forms are based around abstractions and hallucinatory objects.

 [[File:Mania.png|frameless|100px|right]]
;Mania -- <nowiki>Qliphoth Level: SIX_</nowiki>
:Based on “madness through joy”. The direct opposite of Despair, this is Hope and Light and general happiness taken WAY TOO FAR. To those on this Digimental, the world is so bright and colorful and everything is so wonderful you could just scream about it! But not an upset scream! A happy scream! And then you could dance! Dance all day! What’s that you say, the world isn’t sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows? AU CONTRAIRE! A Mania user’s face is always contorted into an enormous grin, and they have the capability to transmute things into sugary, silly, or candy versions of their former existences--their hair turns a brilliant pastel color and they gain a piece of candy stuck in it that can be eaten but will regenerate eternally. Their Digimon forms are based around silly or childish things, like candy.

 [[File:Obsession.png|frameless|100px|right]]
;Obsession -- <nowiki>Qliphoth Level: SEVEN_</nowiki>
:Seemingly based on “madness through knowledge” ...this is what happens when Knowledge or Innovation goes too far. The user is obsessive-compulsive, with a mind-boggling array of random facts at their command and the desire to research every little detail down to the nines if they don’t know it already. They are also driven to collect things, and when they collect them, they arrange them perfectly. If they have something or someone they’re already obsessed with, this amps that up to eleven--they cannot sleep, cannot think about anything else, practically cannot act without obtaining the object of their desire. Obsession users gain almost encyclopedic knowledge of a given field of information and/or an intrinsic sense of where the object they desire most is at all times; their Digimon forms are usually based on ancient treasures, particularly crowns or rare gems.

 

===Apocalypse Digimentals===
Formerly the Ride Digimentals created by the dark DigiArchetype Zero, they are based around the concept of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. To counter the possessive quality of these Digimentals, other Digimentals (besides Ride Digimentals) must be installed into them. Due to this nature, they only create Perfect and Ultimate level Digimon. They have lost their Ride Mode ability, and instead have a Weapon Mode that can be wielded by their Tamers, freeing them of the Arms Code time and power limitations.

In addition, in the presence of Ride Digimentals their power fluctuates. Sin and Golden Digimentals cannot be installed.

 [[File:Conquest.png|frameless|right]]
;Conquest
:A user under the influence of Conquest holds a desire to.. well.. conquer. Driven to bring about victory and ownership, a user of Conquest is always up to challenge for more power. Users of Conquest can stimulate the parts of the brain ruling fight or flight, normally forcing the fight nature forward so combat cannot be refused. Conquest Digimon are associated with the color white, and have crowns on some part of their body. They are ranged combatants with a military bend.

 [[File:War.png|frameless|right]]
;War
:A user under the influence of War craves combat, and adores the sight of battle itself, the bigger the better. Users of War can stimulate parts of the brain concerning conflict within victims, keeping the cycle going. War Digimon are associated with the color red, and are cybernetic in nature and carry bladed weaponry. They are strong defensively and thus have to be taken apart rather than simply beaten back.

 [[File:Famine.png|frameless|right]]
;Famine
:A user under the influence of Famine has a craving not unlike that of Gluttony. However, Famine drains power within others, such as power gained from food or improved mental status, wanting it all for themselves and leaving nothing for others. Users of Famine can stimulate the parts of the brain concerning health, making someone feel weaker than they actually are. Famine Digimon are associated with the color black and carry a scale system of some sort, weighing the balance of force applied to the Digimon. This means an overwhelming assault can be rendered null, calling for one-on-one combat.

 [[File:Death.png|frameless|right]]
;Death
:A user under the influence of Death is one of the most dangerous individuals, desiring only the idea of reducing everything to Zero. Unlike a user of Famine who can weaken, Death users are driven to destroy, and can stimulate the part of the brain dealing with survivability, literally shutting that part of the brain down so fight or flight reflexes are slowed or just plain negated. Death Digimon are associated with the pale expressions of color, and depends on the color of one's LoE. They also wield bladed weaponry and are based on beasts. A Death Digimon can shut down the evolution of a Digimon, locking away one form at a time to its benefit.

 
===Ride Digimentals===
The origin of the Apocalypse Digimentals recreated after the defeat of Zero. Each is based on the data of forms of transportation and are unique in that by themselves, they do not support Armor Digivolving. Instead, they must have another Digimental installed into them, which then allows them to upgrade the form of the Digimental to suit their abilities. As before, they are capable to creating a Ride Mode and a Battle Mode based upon the will of the user. Of note is that these Digimentals depending on the level of the installed Digimental create Perfects and Ultimates.

In addition, in the presence of Apocalypse Digimentals their power fluctuates. Sin and Golden Digimentals cannot be installed.

The activation command for Ride Digimentals is different from the usual "Dial! Digimental Up!" and requires the invocation "'''Dial! Digimental... Ride!'''"

 [[File:Acceleration.png|frameless|right]]
;Acceleration
:The compiled data of high speed road vehicles such as motorcycles and cars, Acceleration is the former Conquest Digimental. Users of Acceleration are granted high speed powers with the increase of physical force granted by such. They can bestow the high speed to others around them if concentrated.

 [[File:Locomotion.png|frameless|right]]
;Locomotion
:The compiled data of heavy duty vehicles such as carriers and trains, Locomotion is the former War Digimental. Users of Locomotion are granted higher strength and defense parameters, but suffer from taking longer to reach maximum speed. They can bestow the increased parameters to those around them if concentrated.

 [[File:Velocity.png|frameless|right]]
;Velocity
:The compiled data of aerial vehicles such as jets and helicopters, Velocity if the former Famine Digimental. Users of Velocity gain the ability to float and glide as well as apply the ability to objects so long as they concentrate.

 [[File:Propulsion.png|frameless|right]]
;Propulsion
:The compiled data of exploratory vehicles such as rockets and extreme terrain transport, Propulsion is the former Death Digimental. Users of Propulsion gain the ability to channel concussive blasts and the ability to disassemble obstacles.

 
===Golden Digimentals===
Golden Digimentals are extremely rare and some would say can't even be mined naturally due to a decree set by the Royal Knight Magnamon. There are the best of the best, granting Ultimate level Digimon only of great holy power. It has been shown a Golden Digimental can be created by merging several Digimentals together, but the process is hard to come by and burns out most of the Digimentals used to do so. Golden Digimentals are the most compatible with users, allowing full free will. Thus far, they carry a three to five post power limit.

The activation command for Golden Digimentals is different from the usual "Dial! Digimental Up!" and requires the invocation "'''Dial! Digimental...Shine!'''"

 [[File:Miracles.png|frameless|right]]
;Miracles
:Tamer gains great confidence, yet not enough to be called an egotist. Those using Miracles become great leaders, and are able to manipulate probability.

 [[File:Destiny.png|frameless|right]]
;Destiny
:Tamer gains great intelligence, yet not enough to be called a know-it-all. Those using Destiny become great strategists, and are able to see into the future.

 [[File:Creativity.png|frameless|right]]
;Imagination
:Tamer becomes very carefree and highly inventive, giving the user's imagination a million volt start up. They are able to create various constructs of golden energy from their minds.

Tokusatsu Franchises of Mirai

2015-07-19T02:34:48Z

Graham: /* Olympic Sentai Ballranger */

Just like our world, the world of '''Dial-Up''' has many, many children worldwide who thrill to the exploits of:

-'''five/six costumed heroes in rainbow colors''' sworn to fight evil with '''teamwork''' and a '''strange unifying theme''' 
-'''a man in a buglike mask''' and '''fancy armor''' over '''spandex''' punching out '''extras from kaiju films''' 
-'''grown men''' putting on '''robot suits''' and '''wrasslin''''. 

These are the entirely fake franchises of the world of DIGIMON: Dial-Up. Please enjoy them.

==The Hero Guy/Yuusha Guy Franchise==

The year is 1976.

The place is Japan.

A young director, passionate about the idea of superhuman cyborgs and their lonely battle against overwhelming odds and dark forces, creates a legacy that will span the test of time. In another world, another time, he might've chosen a grasshopper-themed mask for his transformed hero. But today, he chooses a beetle-themed one, lending his character a strong look.

"What a strong guy!" his son says, catching a glimpse of the design. "He'd be able to beat anybody up!"

A name forms in the man's mind: '''''Buttatakitai Yuusha Mighty Guy'''''

And the rest, as they say, is history.

(The similarity of early Yuusha Guy masks to the Justimon face-mask is entirely coincidental, we're sure.)

===Buttatakitai Yuusha Mighty Guy===

(ENG: "Beat-'Em-Up Hero Mighty Guy") The first series, airing in late 1976 and lasting until 1978. '''Machiro Keshita''' is an innocent young officer of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Force, who is kidnapped along with his older brother by the evil organization '''Great Terror''', his body radically altered by their evil scientist mastermind, '''Doctor Youkai''', into a cyborg monstrosity. Escaping from Great Terror's clutches due to the brave sacrifice of his brother, Machiro swears to protect the populace as MIGHTY GUY.

===Hitsuzen Yuusha Ultra Guy===
(ENG: "Inevitable Hero Ultra Guy") The second series, only running from 1980-1981. After the fall of Great Terror, a new darkness arose: '''Shadow Conclave Kumadeath.''' Worshippers of an ancient Ainu monster god who sought world conquest, they were betrayed by one of their own, brilliant professor of medicine and cutting-edge surgeon '''Tachibana Yukari''', who infuses her only son, '''Tachibana Okita''' with the superhuman power necessary to defeat them, before her death, and ULTRA GUY IS BORN. Was aired in America in 1985 as "MIGHTY GUY, THE MASKED HERO."

===Sandangamae Yuusha Crisis Guy===
(ENG: "Threefold Hero Crisis Guy") Ran from 1981-1982, it was the first series to feature form-changes for a Guy, hence the "Threefold Hero" designation. '''Dr. Kiryu Inoue''' was an astrophysicist working for the Japanese government; little could he have known that the government had been infiltrated by the communist death cult '''Red Satan'''! Transformed using his own research as a commando operative and sent to assassinate the Prime Minister and the Emperor, he instead breaks free of his programming, but must flee both Red Satan and the Japanese authorities in his quest for justice as CRISIS GUY. Alongside form changes (Jack Form, Dash Form, and Heavy Form), this marked the first appearance of a "secondary Guy", as Kiryu's protegé '''Amano Kazuhiko''' is transformed into '''Pursuit Guy'''--though Red Satan intends him to hunt down his mentor, he instead joins forces with him.

===Haearu Yuusha Sacred Guy===
(ENG: "Splendid Hero Sacred Guy") Ran from 1982-1984. Unlike the previous three series, the Guy was, for the first time, truly a reformed villain--'''Kojima Yamato''', an isolated young man who became a cyborg lieutenant of the evil underground militia '''Death Millennium''' of his own free will, out of disgust with the corrupt world; however, during an attack he lead on a Shinto shrine, he was rendered unconscious by a counterattack by the shrine's spirits. Nursed back to health by the shrine's miko, '''Uetsu Mizuki''', this gesture of kindness inspired in him a desire to turn his life around and follow a holy path as SACRED GUY. The form changes of the series were the first to upgrade in power each time (Talisman Form, Kami Form, Okami Form), and the first female hero, '''Angel Lady''' (Mizuki's "Guy" form).

===Haikyousha Yuusha Adamant Guy===
(ENG: "Renegade Hero Adamant Guy") Ran from 1986-1988. Recognized as a modern classic of the genre, this took the serious tone of Sacred Guy and developed it further; '''Narukami Touji''' and his brother, '''Narukami Shirou''', were marked at birth by the secret brotherhood '''Armageddon Solaris''' as the high priests of an alien god from beyond space-time; but destiny had something else in mind for them. For Touji, during the conversion ceremony, was awakened not to the will of a dark messiah, but to the cries of humankind throughout the planet, and became not a destroyer, but the hero, ADAMANT GUY....forced by fate to oppose his own brother, who would be the first "Dark Guy" in franchise history, '''Death Sun'''. Featured the first on-screen death of a secondary Guy--the episode where '''Hanagi Yoshita'''/'''Iron Guy''' dies at the hands of Death Sun is remembered to this day. Was adapted in America and censored to high heaven as "MIGHTY GUY NEO".

===Hariyuki Yuusha Ace Guy===
(ENG: "Lucky Hero Ace Guy") Ran from 1990-1991. While it pioneered the concept of multiple Guys in a series ('''King Guy''', '''Jack Guy''', and '''Queen Lady'''), the plot, which involved a high school dropout, '''Takai "Ace" Himuro''', and his friends all being transformed by the evil corporation '''Hell Wonderland''' into techno-magical card-using cyborgs trying to prevent a "dimensional collision", was much less straightforward than previous plots and things focused much more on antics and attempts at using new, untried computer-generated visual effects, creating a series that was pretty much a universal disappointment all around--it also was seen as derivative of the much more successful Kingly Sentai Royalger. America picked it up as "MIGHTY GUY: ACE" and ran it for three seasons; the latter two are a source of endless headaches for the Eastern enthusiasts of the franchise.

===Shouhen Yuusha Conqueror Guy===
(ENG: "Reborn Hero Conqueror Guy") Ran from 2000-2001. First series to be filmed in Mirai rather than Japan, and marked the reboot of the franchise after a nine-year hiatus.

===Gishi Yuusha Virtual Guy===
(ENG: "Engineer Hero Virtual Guy") Ran from 2001-2002. Peter probably loved this series a little too goddamn much. The American version of it at any rate.

===Junzen Yuusha Ultimate Guy===
(ENG: "Absolute Hero Ultimate Guy") Ran from 2002-2003.

===Mitsurin Yuusha Wilderness Guy===
(ENG: "Jungle Hero Wilderness Guy") Ran from 2003-2004.

===Soubou Yuusha Mystic Guy===
(ENG: "Shadowy Hero Mystic Guy") Ran from 2005-2006. Soma and Loki love this one.

===Henryou Yuusha Proteus Guy===
(ENG: "Variable Hero Proteus Guy") Ran from 2006-2007.

===Sogekihei Yuusha Buster Guy===
(ENG: "Sharpshooter Hero Buster Guy") Ran from 2010-2012.

===Kensei Yuusha Valiant Guy===
(ENG: "Swordmaster Hero Valiant Guy") Ran from 2012-2013.

===Nenshou Yuusha Ryukishi Guy===
(ENG: "Combustion Hero Ryukishi Guy") Ran from 2013-2015. Griffin's show.

===Uchuujin Yuusha Zodiac Guy===
(ENG: "Spaceman Hero Zodiac Guy") Ran from 2015-2016.

===Kudamono Yuusha Sengoku Guy===
(ENG: "Fruit Hero Sengoku Guy") Ran from 2016-2017. The best Yuusha Guy, hands down.

==Super Sentai Series of Dial-Up==

You might know the concept better as "Power Rangers", but you know it nonetheless. Rainbow heroes, spandex, teamwork, get in a mecha and fight the monster when it gets huge.

===Mach-Force Sentai Speedranger===

===Kingly Sentai Royalger===
Ran from 1990-1992. One of the best-remembered of the Super Sentai series, a classic of the genre in almost every way, it featured a group of young high school students and best friends who discovered a shared secret--they were each the descendants of ancient monarchs of mystical power, and they could call upon the power of their bloodlines to become the ordained defenders of Earth's peace, Kingly Sentai Royalger, guardians of '''Castle Eternity'''...and they'd need the power of kings to face down the enemy, '''Barbarian Star Horde Xanadia''', and its fearsome '''Demon Khan Attilion'''!

Adapted in America and Europe as "King Golden's Magical Earth Defenders". The favorite show of a young Fleur de Croix.

''Roster'': '''King Golden, Queen Silver, Duke Platinum, Prince Orichalcos, Princess Electrum, Praetorian Hepatizon''' 
''Mecha'': '''Ruler-Oh, Ruler-Oh Regnant, Lancel-Oh, Caesar-Oh, Imperial Caesar-Oh'''

===Olympic Sentai Ballranger===
Ran from 2007-2008. Its creator is said to have pitched the idea by walking into a Saburei Corp. board meeting and simply scrawling HOME RUN on a piece of paper. It is time for the '''Olympics of Galaxies''', and if Earth cannot defeat the other planets at sports, it will be destroyed. Their only hope is a group of sports club members from rural Japan selected by the UN Security Council, who will be infused with the sports skills of the entire planet in order to become an unbeatable team.

Adapted in America as Power Rangers: Hit The Showers, which showrunner Michael Takada called "the most regrettable time in my entire career."

Adapted in America and Europe as "King Golden's Magical Earth Defenders". The favorite show of a young Fleur de Croix.

===Olympic Sentai Ballranger===
Ran from 2007-2008. Its creator is said to have pitched the idea by walking into a Saburei Corp. board meeting and simply scrawling HOME RUN on a piece of paper. It is time for the '''Olympics of Galaxies''', and if Earth cannot defeat the other planets at sports, it will be destroyed. Their only hope is a group of sports club members from rural Japan selected by the UN Security Council, who will be infused with the sports skills of the entire planet in order to become an unbeatable team.

Adapted in America as Power Rangers: Hit The Showers, which showrunner Michael Takada called "the most regrettable calendar year of my life, hands down."

Tokusatsu Franchises of Mirai

Graham: /* Kingly Sentai Royalger */

Just like our world, the world of '''Dial-Up''' has many, many children worldwide who thrill to the exploits of:

-'''five/six costumed heroes in rainbow colors''' sworn to fight evil with '''teamwork''' and a '''strange unifying theme''' 
-'''a man in a buglike mask''' and '''fancy armor''' over '''spandex''' punching out '''extras from kaiju films''' 
-'''grown men''' putting on '''robot suits''' and '''wrasslin''''. 

These are the entirely fake franchises of the world of DIGIMON: Dial-Up. Please enjoy them.

==The Hero Guy/Yuusha Guy Franchise==

The year is 1976.

The place is Japan.

A young director, passionate about the idea of superhuman cyborgs and their lonely battle against overwhelming odds and dark forces, creates a legacy that will span the test of time. In another world, another time, he might've chosen a grasshopper-themed mask for his transformed hero. But today, he chooses a beetle-themed one, lending his character a strong look.

"What a strong guy!" his son says, catching a glimpse of the design. "He'd be able to beat anybody up!"

A name forms in the man's mind: '''''Buttatakitai Yuusha Mighty Guy'''''

And the rest, as they say, is history.

(The similarity of early Yuusha Guy masks to the Justimon face-mask is entirely coincidental, we're sure.)

===Buttatakitai Yuusha Mighty Guy===

(ENG: "Beat-'Em-Up Hero Mighty Guy") The first series, airing in late 1976 and lasting until 1978. '''Machiro Keshita''' is an innocent young officer of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Force, who is kidnapped along with his older brother by the evil organization '''Great Terror''', his body radically altered by their evil scientist mastermind, '''Doctor Youkai''', into a cyborg monstrosity. Escaping from Great Terror's clutches due to the brave sacrifice of his brother, Machiro swears to protect the populace as MIGHTY GUY.

===Hitsuzen Yuusha Ultra Guy===
(ENG: "Inevitable Hero Ultra Guy") The second series, only running from 1980-1981. After the fall of Great Terror, a new darkness arose: '''Shadow Conclave Kumadeath.''' Worshippers of an ancient Ainu monster god who sought world conquest, they were betrayed by one of their own, brilliant professor of medicine and cutting-edge surgeon '''Tachibana Yukari''', who infuses her only son, '''Tachibana Okita''' with the superhuman power necessary to defeat them, before her death, and ULTRA GUY IS BORN. Was aired in America in 1985 as "MIGHTY GUY, THE MASKED HERO."

===Sandangamae Yuusha Crisis Guy===
(ENG: "Threefold Hero Crisis Guy") Ran from 1981-1982, it was the first series to feature form-changes for a Guy, hence the "Threefold Hero" designation. '''Dr. Kiryu Inoue''' was an astrophysicist working for the Japanese government; little could he have known that the government had been infiltrated by the communist death cult '''Red Satan'''! Transformed using his own research as a commando operative and sent to assassinate the Prime Minister and the Emperor, he instead breaks free of his programming, but must flee both Red Satan and the Japanese authorities in his quest for justice as CRISIS GUY. Alongside form changes (Jack Form, Dash Form, and Heavy Form), this marked the first appearance of a "secondary Guy", as Kiryu's protegé '''Amano Kazuhiko''' is transformed into '''Pursuit Guy'''--though Red Satan intends him to hunt down his mentor, he instead joins forces with him.

===Haearu Yuusha Sacred Guy===
(ENG: "Splendid Hero Sacred Guy") Ran from 1982-1984. Unlike the previous three series, the Guy was, for the first time, truly a reformed villain--'''Kojima Yamato''', an isolated young man who became a cyborg lieutenant of the evil underground militia '''Death Millennium''' of his own free will, out of disgust with the corrupt world; however, during an attack he lead on a Shinto shrine, he was rendered unconscious by a counterattack by the shrine's spirits. Nursed back to health by the shrine's miko, '''Uetsu Mizuki''', this gesture of kindness inspired in him a desire to turn his life around and follow a holy path as SACRED GUY. The form changes of the series were the first to upgrade in power each time (Talisman Form, Kami Form, Okami Form), and the first female hero, '''Angel Lady''' (Mizuki's "Guy" form).

===Haikyousha Yuusha Adamant Guy===
(ENG: "Renegade Hero Adamant Guy") Ran from 1986-1988. Recognized as a modern classic of the genre, this took the serious tone of Sacred Guy and developed it further; '''Narukami Touji''' and his brother, '''Narukami Shirou''', were marked at birth by the secret brotherhood '''Armageddon Solaris''' as the high priests of an alien god from beyond space-time; but destiny had something else in mind for them. For Touji, during the conversion ceremony, was awakened not to the will of a dark messiah, but to the cries of humankind throughout the planet, and became not a destroyer, but the hero, ADAMANT GUY....forced by fate to oppose his own brother, who would be the first "Dark Guy" in franchise history, '''Death Sun'''. Featured the first on-screen death of a secondary Guy--the episode where '''Hanagi Yoshita'''/'''Iron Guy''' dies at the hands of Death Sun is remembered to this day. Was adapted in America and censored to high heaven as "MIGHTY GUY NEO".

===Hariyuki Yuusha Ace Guy===
(ENG: "Lucky Hero Ace Guy") Ran from 1990-1991. While it pioneered the concept of multiple Guys in a series ('''King Guy''', '''Jack Guy''', and '''Queen Lady'''), the plot, which involved a high school dropout, '''Takai "Ace" Himuro''', and his friends all being transformed by the evil corporation '''Hell Wonderland''' into techno-magical card-using cyborgs trying to prevent a "dimensional collision", was much less straightforward than previous plots and things focused much more on antics and attempts at using new, untried computer-generated visual effects, creating a series that was pretty much a universal disappointment all around--it also was seen as derivative of the much more successful Kingly Sentai Royalger. America picked it up as "MIGHTY GUY: ACE" and ran it for three seasons; the latter two are a source of endless headaches for the Eastern enthusiasts of the franchise.

===Shouhen Yuusha Conqueror Guy===
(ENG: "Reborn Hero Conqueror Guy") Ran from 2000-2001. First series to be filmed in Mirai rather than Japan, and marked the reboot of the franchise after a nine-year hiatus.

===Gishi Yuusha Virtual Guy===
(ENG: "Engineer Hero Virtual Guy") Ran from 2001-2002. Peter probably loved this series a little too goddamn much. The American version of it at any rate.

===Junzen Yuusha Ultimate Guy===
(ENG: "Absolute Hero Ultimate Guy") Ran from 2002-2003.

===Mitsurin Yuusha Wilderness Guy===
(ENG: "Jungle Hero Wilderness Guy") Ran from 2003-2004.

===Soubou Yuusha Mystic Guy===
(ENG: "Shadowy Hero Mystic Guy") Ran from 2005-2006. Soma and Loki love this one.

===Henryou Yuusha Proteus Guy===
(ENG: "Variable Hero Proteus Guy") Ran from 2006-2007.

===Sogekihei Yuusha Buster Guy===
(ENG: "Sharpshooter Hero Buster Guy") Ran from 2010-2012.

===Kensei Yuusha Valiant Guy===
(ENG: "Swordmaster Hero Valiant Guy") Ran from 2012-2013.

===Nenshou Yuusha Ryukishi Guy===
(ENG: "Combustion Hero Ryukishi Guy") Ran from 2013-2015. Griffin's show.

===Uchuujin Yuusha Zodiac Guy===
(ENG: "Spaceman Hero Zodiac Guy") Ran from 2015-2016.

===Kudamono Yuusha Sengoku Guy===

(The similarity of early Yuusha Guy masks to the Justimon face-mask is entirely coincidental, we're sure.)

===Buttatakitai Yuusha Mighty Guy===

(ENG: "Beat-'Em-Up Hero Mighty Guy") The first series, airing in late 1976 and lasting until 1978. '''Machiro Keshita''' is an innocent young officer of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Force, who is kidnapped along with his older brother by the evil organization '''Great Terror''', his body radically altered by their evil scientist mastermind, '''Doctor Youkai''', into a cyborg monstrosity. Escaping from Great Terror's clutches due to the brave sacrifice of his brother, Machiro swears to protect the populace as MIGHTY GUY.

===Hitsuzen Yuusha Ultra Guy===
(ENG: "Inevitable Hero Ultra Guy") The second series, only running from 1980-1981. After the fall of Great Terror, a new darkness arose: '''Shadow Conclave Kumadeath.''' Worshippers of an ancient Ainu monster god who sought world conquest, they were betrayed by one of their own, brilliant professor of medicine and cutting-edge surgeon '''Tachibana Yukari''', who infuses her only son, '''Tachibana Okita''' with the superhuman power necessary to defeat them, before her death, and ULTRA GUY IS BORN. Was aired in America in 1985 as "MIGHTY GUY, THE MASKED HERO."

===Sandangamae Yuusha Crisis Guy===
(ENG: "Threefold Hero Crisis Guy") Ran from 1981-1982, it was the first series to feature form-changes for a Guy, hence the "Threefold Hero" designation. '''Dr. Kiryu Inoue''' was an astrophysicist working for the Japanese government; little could he have known that the government had been infiltrated by the communist death cult '''Red Satan'''! Transformed using his own research as a commando operative and sent to assassinate the Prime Minister and the Emperor, he instead breaks free of his programming, but must flee both Red Satan and the Japanese authorities in his quest for justice as CRISIS GUY. Alongside form changes (Jack Form, Dash Form, and Heavy Form), this marked the first appearance of a "secondary Guy", as Kiryu's protegé '''Amano Kazuhiko''' is transformed into '''Pursuit Guy'''--though Red Satan intends him to hunt down his mentor, he instead joins forces with him.

===Haearu Yuusha Sacred Guy===
(ENG: "Splendid Hero Sacred Guy") Ran from 1982-1984. Unlike the previous three series, the Guy was, for the first time, truly a reformed villain--'''Kojima Yamato''', an isolated young man who became a cyborg lieutenant of the evil underground militia '''Death Millennium''' of his own free will, out of disgust with the corrupt world; however, during an attack he lead on a Shinto shrine, he was rendered unconscious by a counterattack by the shrine's spirits. Nursed back to health by the shrine's miko, '''Uetsu Mizuki''', this gesture of kindness inspired in him a desire to turn his life around and follow a holy path as SACRED GUY. The form changes of the series were the first to upgrade in power each time (Talisman Form, Kami Form, Okami Form), and the first female hero, '''Angel Lady''' (Mizuki's "Guy" form).

===Haikyousha Yuusha Adamant Guy===
(ENG: "Renegade Hero Adamant Guy") Ran from 1986-1988. Recognized as a modern classic of the genre, this took the serious tone of Sacred Guy and developed it further; '''Narukami Touji''' and his brother, '''Narukami Shirou''', were marked at birth by the secret brotherhood '''Armageddon Solaris''' as the high priests of an alien god from beyond space-time; but destiny had something else in mind for them. For Touji, during the conversion ceremony, was awakened not to the will of a dark messiah, but to the cries of humankind throughout the planet, and became not a destroyer, but the hero, ADAMANT GUY....forced by fate to oppose his own brother, who would be the first "Dark Guy" in franchise history, '''Death Sun'''. Featured the first on-screen death of a secondary Guy--the episode where '''Hanagi Yoshita'''/'''Iron Guy''' dies at the hands of Death Sun is remembered to this day. Was adapted in America and censored to high heaven as "MIGHTY GUY NEO".

===Hariyuki Yuusha Ace Guy===
(ENG: "Lucky Hero Ace Guy") Ran from 1990-1991. While it pioneered the concept of multiple Guys in a series ('''King Guy''', '''Jack Guy''', and '''Queen Lady'''), the plot, which involved a high school dropout, '''Takai "Ace" Himuro''', and his friends all being transformed by the evil corporation '''Hell Wonderland''' into techno-magical card-using cyborgs trying to prevent a "dimensional collision", was much less straightforward than previous plots and things focused much more on antics and attempts at using new, untried computer-generated visual effects, creating a series that was pretty much a universal disappointment all around--it also was seen as derivative of the much more successful Kingly Sentai Royalger. America picked it up as "MIGHTY GUY: ACE" and ran it for three seasons; the latter two are a source of endless headaches for the Eastern enthusiasts of the franchise.

===Shouhen Yuusha Conqueror Guy===
(ENG: "Reborn Hero Conqueror Guy") Ran from 2000-2001. First series to be filmed in Mirai rather than Japan, and marked the reboot of the franchise after a nine-year hiatus.

===Gishi Yuusha Virtual Guy===
(ENG: "Engineer Hero Virtual Guy") Ran from 2001-2002. Peter probably loved this series a little too goddamn much. The American version of it at any rate.

===Junzen Yuusha Ultimate Guy===
(ENG: "Absolute Hero Ultimate Guy") Ran from 2002-2003.

===Mitsurin Yuusha Wilderness Guy===
(ENG: "Jungle Hero Wilderness Guy") Ran from 2003-2004.

Graham: /* The Hero Guy/Yuusha Guy Franchise */

Just like our world, the world of '''Dial-Up''' has many, many children worldwide who thrill to the exploits of:

-'''five/six costumed heroes in rainbow colors''' sworn to fight evil with '''teamwork''' and a '''strange unifying theme''' 
-'''a man in a buglike mask''' and '''fancy armor''' over '''spandex''' punching out '''extras from kaiju films''' 
-'''grown men''' putting on '''robot suits''' and '''wrasslin''''. 

These are the entirely fake franchises of the world of DIGIMON: Dial-Up. Please enjoy them.

==The Hero Guy/Yuusha Guy Franchise==

The year is 1976.

The place is Japan.

A young director, passionate about the idea of superhuman cyborgs and their lonely battle against overwhelming odds and dark forces, creates a legacy that will span the test of time. In another world, another time, he might've chosen a grasshopper-themed mask for his transformed hero. But today, he chooses a beetle-themed one, lending his character a strong look.

"What a strong guy!" his son says, catching a glimpse of the design. "He'd be able to beat anybody up!"

A name forms in the man's mind: '''''Buttatakitai Yuusha Mighty Guy'''''

And the rest, as they say, is history.

Digital Enhancement

2015-07-13T20:30:33Z

Graham:

When a Contract is successfully made with a Digimon, it will give a Tamer two things. One is a small barrier to protect him or her from strong attacks. The barrier isn't all powerful and can shatter with enough force or action. The other is called the Digital Enhancement, or simply DE. The DE is an upgrade to the human to allow him/herself defense against other humans and Digimon. An enhancement is never really flashy, with only tell tale signs when it becomes active. This is because secrecy is important, and big flashy displays of power attract unwanted attention. Enhancements include small elemental manipulation, bodily enhancement, mental enhancement, stuff like that. Acceptable ideas are higher body strength, telekinesis, telepathy, short range teleportation, super speed, small healing, sudden skill in weaponry, and transforming. Unacceptable ideas include lasers, transformation that also copies powers, big shows of energy, anything Dragonball Z-esque, Gurren-Lagann-ish, or simply over the bloody top. Remember, subtlety is the key here, being a Tamer and having a Digimon is supposed to be a SECRET. Though subtlety is still key, some flashiness can be afforded with higher levels. DE's have three levels: '''Initial''', '''Advance''', and '''Unrestricted'''.

Digital Enhancements, also known as '''Enhancements''' or simply '''DEs''' are a form of psychic power unlocked by the formation of a Contract with a Digimon. It could be termed "an upgrade to the human"; it's also a power that operates on the Wish/the inner desires of the human forming the Contract. For example, someone who desired to prove their genius to the world might gain an Enhancement that allows them to increase their thinking speed or brain capacity; someone who desired to express pent-up frustrations might gain something like pyrokinesis.

The capability, it must be noted, is ''native'' to the Tamer's brain--the [[Digivice]] and the Contract it carries act as something akin to an "ignition key", activating the "engine" of the Tamer's psychic capabilities. A Tamer's brain will register as different from a normal human's to close examination--the area of the cortex that controls the Digital Enhancement is larger and more pronounced than the dormant area in a normal human's. There may also be some slight biological changes to cope with the unique power granted.

Light of Evolution

2015-07-13T17:26:16Z

Graham: /* Types of LoE */

<div class="nonumtoc">
Light of Evolution is a type of energy emitted by the majority of living things, both Analog and Digital; specifically, it seems to be living things in possession of a nervous system or analogue therefore. It is also called the ''' "Light of the Soul" ''' by many older-model Digimon, by those who are precisely attuned to their own, and those who have glimpsed the [[Sea of Memories]]. According to Mishima Dagashin, it could be called "a power representing progress".

It's usually referred to by the shorthand form, '''LoE'''.

Every Light of Evolution wavelength carries a different Hue--this coloration, and any shapes within the color, tend to reflect the user's "soul", and additionally to reflect their emotional and mental state. Light of Evolution carries memories, emotions, and strong thoughts within it, and is believed to be the basis for the [[Digivice]] technology; certainly, [[Evolution]] would be impossible without it. Most Digimon only evolve through accumulation and high production of Light, which Digimon tend to produce more rapidly than humans. The reason Contract Digimon are so much stronger than other Digimon is because they process not only their own Light, but the Light of their partner.

The Light of most Analog lifeforms, even most humans, isn't visible outside of a ''cymatic scan'', but Contractors are different, again due to the combination of their Light wavelengths, and seem to possess the capacity to not only project their Light out of their bodies, but to use it for a variety of different purposes, from a personal energy shield or '''"LoE Field"''' to the mysterious power called [[Finalize]].

When LoE is actively being produced, the eyes tend to produce a spinning gear in the pupil of a matching Hue to their LoE.

Information about LoE is believed to be amongst the topics covered in [[The Manual]].

==Grades of LoE==

The [[Daedalus Initiative]] has developed a system for measuring the general LoE capacity and capability of a given Light-possessing lifeform, which aids in their assessment of Tamer capabilities; it is called the ''Grade System'' as shorthand, and measures them on a general scale of 1-10, with decibel points denoting variations within a given Grade.

The scale is as follows:

'''Grade 1:''' A nonsapient/semi-sapient animal, with only a spark of its own self-awareness and what might be called a "soul". 
'''Grade 2:''' Most humans are somewhere on the upper end of Grade 2, especially humans who've never been exposed to the Digital World. 
'''Grade 3:''' A human who's been exposed to the Digital World or is otherwise spiritually strong. 
'''Grade 4:''' Tamer threshold. Anyone who's made a Contract with a Digimon is at least a Grade 4 as a general rule. 
'''Grade 5:''' Average Tamer LoE level. 
'''Grade 6:''' Above-average Tamer LoE level. 
'''Grade 7:''' Talented Tamers; often ranking members of one of the factions. 
'''Grade 8:''' Exceptionally talented Tamers--the offspring of the Chosen Children are a good example. 
'''Grade 9:''' The upper limit of Contracted Tamers, observed only within a very few subjects. 
'''Grade 10''': A Chosen Child, post-Chosen War era. 

==Types of LoE==

===Pale Rainbow/Rainbow-class LoE===

A variant of Light of Evolution where the energy wavelength can't settle on a Hue to reflect in the soul; it is thus prismatic and translucent, usually emitted in blooms or spurts from the subject in question.

A product mostly of the [[Sea of Memories]]; Ghosts (Digital Phantoms) are comprised of this type of LoE. It's also emitted when a person's LoE structure has become unstable, such as during Operation GLASS CHIROPTERA and the period of time in which [[Nagisa Akurei]]'s body was rejecting the incomplete [[Lost Drive]].

Rainbow-class LoE is utilized in LoE amplification technology both by Daedalus and the [[Crowns]].

===Dark LoE===

An extremely dangerous variant, Dark LoE is Light of Evolution that has been corrupted by trauma, insanity, and/or despair. Unlike most LoE, which is benign unless focused and weaponized, Dark LoE is harmful to be exposed to; it drains and corrupts the LoE of those in contact with it, and due to the cymatic/psychological wavelength carried by it, it can actually spread the mental pollution that caused the LoE to darken in the first place, like a plague of madness. Dark LoE is pure black, with only small slivers of the former Hue running through it if its creator is especially high-Grade.

The only safe way to process Dark LoE is through a procedure called ''' ''Darkness Taming'' ''', offered exclusively by [[Igormon]], proprietor of the [[Velvet Room]], and even then the process usually requires having been ''previously exposed to a Dark Evolution'' in order to function properly.

Dark Evolutions deal in truly massive amounts of Dark LoE, which, in the case of the modern Dark Evolution, the mechanism of the Dead Number amplifies and helps to cycle much, much faster than normal, often creating a huge construct of surplus Dark LoE to "nourish" the Dark Evolved Digimon before it emerges fully into its environment. Despair Digimentals also often darken their user's LoE with great rapidity.

The only blessing of Dark LoE is that it is inherently destructive, even to its producer, so it is extremely rare to see any self-sustaining sources--there is only [[Shinri|one confirmed such source]] in existence.

===Minus LoE/Negative LoE===

This is a variant type only utilized by the faction [[Sentinel]] and the Tamers connected to [[Core Intelligence Ragnarok|Ragnarok]]. It doesn't carry a proper Hue, and is universally a pale red with black running through it; on a cymatic scan, it wouldn't show up correctly on most instruments, or would carry a negative LoE grade, hence its commonplace name.

Minus LoE is produced by Ragnarok by a process in which he uses the Dead Number or a Digimental of Tyranny to strip an LoE of its individual cymatic/psychological wavelength, and replace it with the wavelength of his own soul. As this process transmits Ragnarok's obsessive desire to "rectify" and "create order" in a system, and removes most of a person's capacity for emotions and empathy, it often creates a Tamer/Digimon with antisocial personality disorder/psychopathy, and no compunctions about violence or the commission of atrocities.

===KENOMA-Type Artificial LoE===

A mysterious, nearly-colorless/semi-pale-green, almost dead-Hue type of LoE produced by Daedalus' Secton-VI, ICARUS. It is artifically created from an unknown source, and acts both as a method to create artificial Tamers and as a supplement that amplifies a normal LoE wavelength beyond normal capacity. All other capabilities are jealously guarded by its creators.

===Pale Rainbow/Rainbow-class LoE===

A variant of Light of Evolution where the energy wavelength can't settle on a Hue to reflect in the soul; it is thus prismatic and translucent, usually emitted in blooms or spurts from the subject in question.

A product mostly of the [[Sea of Memories]]; Ghosts (Digital Phantoms) are comprised of this type of LoE. It's also emitted when a person's LoE structure has become unstable, such as during Operation GLASS CHIROPTERA and the period of time in which [[Nagisa Akurei]]'s body was rejecting the incomplete [[Lost Drive]].

Rainbow-class LoE is utilized in LoE amplification technology both by Daedalus and the [[Crowns]].

===Dark LoE===

An extremely dangerous variant, Dark LoE is Light of Evolution that has been corrupted by trauma, insanity, and/or despair. Unlike most LoE, which is benign unless focused and weaponized, Dark LoE is harmful to be exposed to; it drains and corrupts the LoE of those in contact with it, and due to the cymatic/psychological wavelength carried by it, it can actually spread the mental pollution that caused the LoE to darken in the first place, like a plague of madness. Dark LoE is pure black, with only small slivers of the former Hue running through it if its creator is especially high-Grade.

The only safe way to process Dark LoE is through a procedure called ''' ''Darkness Taming'' ''', offered exclusively by [[Igormon]], proprietor of the [[Velvet Room]], and even then the process usually requires having been ''previously exposed to a Dark Evolution'' in order to function properly.

Dark Evolutions deal in truly massive amounts of Dark LoE, which, in the case of the modern Dark Evolution, the mechanism of the Dead Number amplifies and helps to cycle much, much faster than normal, often creating a huge construct of surplus Dark LoE to "nourish" the Dark Evolved Digimon before it emerges fully into its environment. Despair Digimentals also often darken their user's LoE with great rapidity.

The only blessing of Dark LoE is that it is inherently destructive, even to its producer, so it is extremely rare to see any self-sustaining sources--there is only [[Shinri|one confirmed such source]] in existence.

===Minus LoE/Negative LoE===

This is a variant type only utilized by the faction [[Sentinel]] and the Tamers connected to [[Core Intelligence Ragnarok|Ragnarok]]. It doesn't carry a proper Hue, and is universally a pale red with black running through it; on a cymatic scan, it wouldn't show up correctly on most instruments, or would carry a negative LoE grade, hence its commonplace name.

Minus LoE is produced by Ragnarok by a process in which he uses the Dead Number or a Digimental of Tyranny to strip an LoE of its individual cymatic/psychological wavelength, and replace it with the wavelength of his own soul. As this process transmits Ragnarok's obsessive desire to "rectify" and "create order" in a system, and removes most of a person's capacity for emotions and empathy, it often creates a Tamer/Digimon with antisocial personality disorder/psychopathy, and no compunctions about violence or the commission of atrocities.

===KENOMA-Type Artificial LoE===

A mysterious, nearly-colorless/semi-pale-green, almost dead-Hue type of LoE produced by Daedalus' Secton-VI, ICARUS. It is artifically created from an unknown source, and acts both as a method to create artificial Tamers and as a supplement that amplifies a normal LoE wavelength beyond normal capacity. All other capabilities are jealously guarded by its creators.

Light of Evolution

Graham: /* Types of LoE */

Light of Evolution is a type of energy emitted by the majority of living things, both Analog and Digital; specifically, it seems to be living things in possession of a nervous system or analogue therefore. It is also called the ''' "Light of the Soul" ''' by many older-model Digimon, by those who are precisely attuned to their own, and those who have glimpsed the [[Sea of Memories]]. According to Mishima Dagashin, it could be called "a power representing progress".

It's usually referred to by the shorthand form, '''LoE'''.

Every Light of Evolution wavelength carries a different Hue--this coloration, and any shapes within the color, tend to reflect the user's "soul", and additionally to reflect their emotional and mental state. Light of Evolution carries memories, emotions, and strong thoughts within it, and is believed to be the basis for the [[Digivice]] technology; certainly, [[Evolution]] would be impossible without it. Most Digimon only evolve through accumulation and high production of Light, which Digimon tend to produce more rapidly than humans. The reason Contract Digimon are so much stronger than other Digimon is because they process not only their own Light, but the Light of their partner.

The Light of most Analog lifeforms, even most humans, isn't visible outside of a ''cymatic scan'', but Contractors are different, again due to the combination of their Light wavelengths, and seem to possess the capacity to not only project their Light out of their bodies, but to use it for a variety of different purposes, from a personal energy shield or '''"LoE Field"''' to the mysterious power called [[Finalize]].

When LoE is actively being produced, the eyes tend to produce a spinning gear in the pupil of a matching Hue to their LoE.

Information about LoE is believed to be amongst the topics covered in [[The Manual]].

==Grades of LoE==

The [[Daedalus Initiative]] has developed a system for measuring the general LoE capacity and capability of a given Light-possessing lifeform, which aids in their assessment of Tamer capabilities; it is called the ''Grade System'' as shorthand, and measures them on a general scale of 1-10, with decibel points denoting variations within a given Grade.

The scale is as follows:

'''Grade 1:''' A nonsapient animal, with only a lpark of its own self-awareness and what might be called a "soul". 
'''Grade 2:''' Most humans are somewhere on the upper end of Grade 2, especially humans who've never been exposed to the Digital World. 
'''Grade 3:''' A human who's been exposed to the Digital World or is otherwise spiritually strong. 
'''Grade 4:''' Tamer threshold. Anyone who's made a Contract with a Digimon is at least a Grade 4 as a general rule. 
'''Grade 5:''' Average Tamer LoE level. 
'''Grade 6:''' Above-average Tamer LoE level. 
'''Grade 7:''' Talented Tamers; often ranking members of one of the factions. 
'''Grade 8:''' Exceptionally talented Tamers--the offspring of the Chosen Children are a good example. 
'''Grade 9:''' The upper limit of Contracted Tamers, observed only within a very few subjects. 
'''Grade 10''': A Chosen Child, post-Chosen War era.
