#grandlocomon

[chisai236]

Another Piedmon commission for Cornsyrups! Thank you again so much! This commission took over 30 hours of work, but it was so much fun at the same time! And I'm super proud of how it turned out!

[just-a-seagull]

Ok, another update. I have made it much further and now almost my entire team is mega level, with the exception of taomon(cause I dont like any of the things it evolves into more than it), and I now have a grandlocomon which means I can beat the s#it out of things with a train. And I am up to the area where you are tracking down crusadermon. And can I just F*#K THAT GUY IN PARTICULAR. But my current team is grandlocomon, slayerdramon, brakedramon, plesiomon, bancholeomon, blackwargreymon, taomon, flamedramon, and a metalgarurumon(blk) that'll be in the digifarm untill I have enough memory, and a garudamon that's there just to fight crusadermon.

I have some card requests! I couldn't find them on your page, sorry if I missed them, but could you upload the regular art of EX3 Chaosdramon and BT17 Trailmon?

Yeah sure! You didn't miss anything. I thought about putting Trailmon in the Post with Locomon and GrandLocomon, but ultimately decided against to keep it with just those two from the Runaway Train movie.

It's so funny to me as a Digimon fan that no one has done a Submas Digimon AU. The main premise of most Digimon series (most notably the original Adventure) is that they get transported to another world. One that tends to have human-like elements because the two worlds are connected. Frontier literally brought the kids to the Digital World through a train station! There's train digimon! THERE'S TWIN DIGIMON! It works so well I'm surprised no one has done it.

On that note I can imagine the twins having Chocomon and Gummymon but I feel like they evolve in diffrent directions (I guess they'd get a matching trainmon at some point but I feel like that depends on if your working on Digimon as reflections of the human logic or not, though it would feel very disappointing to not give them both Grandlocomon though)

(It would also be disappointing if I didn't give them the ability to biomerge into a Grandlocomon actually...like...they could legitimately become trains in this AU concept. Heck jogress/fusion evolution is sitting right there-)

While getting rid of a bunch of sketchbooks I have never bothered to open up anymore, I found a ton of Digimon sketches and half-finished drawings I had made and never came back for. Some of these go as far back as 2010, and a good chunk of these have my ideas for lines that haven't been filled: Like a line that connects Trailmon, Locomon, and GrandLocomon together by making a Rookie/Child Digimon based around little trains that you allow your kid to ride on at places like zoos. Other times, it's swapping out a Digimon for a new one, like what I tend to do with Betamon for Unagimon.

Other times, I make entirely new Digimon lines for niches that haven't been filled, like a bat Digimon line that's not based on vampires or demons. I heard once Batman as a franchise is *really* popular in Japan, so I thought 'why not make a Digimon line based off of American Superheroes like Batman?'.

I should revive Rousemon at some point, touch them up to fit with the Digimon style.

Alright you all know I love Digimon so

Also I used this site to figure out my top 12 Digimon

[wouldyoulovemeifiwasawormmon]

Aight so Agumon Bond of Courage and GrandLocomon died pretty fast outside of cold storage. Like, shortly after I got home: eggs. I have not had the time to draw memorial pictures so I guess we'll just roll into the babies.

GrandLocomon's egg hatched and became Gabe the Gabumon (he really wants to be called Gabe) and Agumon BoC's egg is now a child-level Algomon.

In other news, I have gathered a team of concerned digimon to combat the VHS pyramid scheme baron consisting of the Mormon Patamon, a Lutheran Gatomon, and a Biyomon who has no strong religious affiliation whatsoever but wants to be included.

[ID: Two gifs of GranLocomon sprites from the Vital Bracelet Lab app. GranLocomon is a Mega level Digimon that is blue locomotive train with a large spiked front wheel. The first gif shows GranLocomon's Happy animation. It bounces up and down slightly in its idle animation before it jumps in the air, raising its head upward in a happy cheer. A sun icon appears and shines above its head. Then it lands again and the gif loops. The second gif shows GranLocomon's sleep sprite, its head tucked down between its body and fromt wheel and its eyes closed. Three Z's float off in the right corner. End ID]

Team Bullet Train and Trailmon

Yes, all three of them got a Trailmon. Am I going to still post pics and say who's who? Yes. Am I gonna do the usual for the DNA digivolution form? Also yes. Also, I am lazy and so the trailmon's names is just the character's Japanese names.

Railspike's Partner, J-Five

Midnight Express' Partner, J-Four

Rapid Run's Partner, J-Seven

DNA Digivolution with all three (Called JRX)

GRANDLOCOMON Level: Mega Type: Machine Attribute: Data Field: Metal Empire, Nature Spirits, Nightmare Soldiers

[imaginedigimon]

What if there were Locomons and GrandLocomons in Frontier instead of Trailmons?

I mean

They’re both trains, so I don’t think much would have changed? I don’t know much about Locomon (haven’t seen the Tamers movie) so I can’t even tell you if speed would have changed or what.

Trains are trains?

[tamerjerry]

Whew, it's been a hectic few weeks. The holiday season sure hits hard when you're a tamer that also works retail.

ANYWAY, during our time together over the month, Andros managed to evolve into AtlurBallistamon, and further yet into GrandLocomon!

Gotta say, I'm happy for him. He did a lot of work to pull off such a huge evolution, and I look forward to getting a ride on him in the Digital World.

Well, look who decided to visit me at work!

It seems after Mr. Pumpkin and I were able to unlock NoblePumpkinmon together with the power of the Vital Bracelet, Andros wanted to see what possible evolutions he could unlock too!

Wish us luck!

[just-a-seagull]

Alright yet another update. I finally got all of the requirements to evolve my guardromon into datamon, which means I'm one step closer to grandlocomon. And tho rest of my team at the current moment are garurumon(blk), seadtamon, airdramon and coredramon(green). And if you know about evolution paths in digimon cybersleuth then you probably know what I'm gonna do with those last 2, but I have two questions 1-are there any special requirements for turning slayerdramon and brakedramon into examon other than level and stat conditions or can I just do it as soon as they meet them? And 2-is there a certain point at which I can go fight magnamon to get his digiegg and should my digimon be at certain recomended levels for it? Any advice would be appreciated, but you don't have to if you don't want to.

Digimon Xros Wars Ep20 Liveblog

Team Xros Heart has gone to the Dust Zone to track down Nene, but then get sidetracked when Taiki decides he can’t turn his back on the Digimon of the zone who are all struggling to survive under the rule of GrandLocomon.

so a mysterious dark thing grabbed Taiki out of the portal last time, and now we see that it’s DarkKnightmon who grabbed him. this dark orb definitely doesn’t acutally have Nene in it & is just a trick to see if Taiki can be evilly brainwashed. also, this might actually be what I was thinking of when I thought Nene’s base was a tower with a dark orb in it?

Akari’s ability to use anything as a cushion to break Taiki’s tall comes back into play ‘cause DarkKnightmon threw him out of the tower. this time, Dorulumon is the cushion.

so in this zone, all the Digimon that live here collect scrap metal (and do something with it?). they’ll take anything mechanical (like the Xros Loader, which they just stole), which apparently even includes other mecha Digimon.

Pinnochimon goes on and on about how you can’t trust anybody in the Dust Zone, but Taiki ignores him and quickly untangles his puppet strings and befriends him. if I remember right, Pinnochimon winds up betraying the group, though... because he’s so entrenched in the idea that he can’t trust anyone & it’s every ‘mon for themself.

and now Kiriha has showed up at DarkKnightmon’s tower and is asking DarkKnightmon to work under him. unfortunately, Kiriha’s heart is full of darkness so DarkKnightmon’s evil orb trick worked on him. and that’s going to do something later.

ok yeah. Pinnochimon (mostly) lied and said that he’d help the team get the Xros Loader back, and showed them to the hideout of the Digimon that stole it. but then Pinnochimon bungee jumped from a skylight in the building and took the Xros Loader for himself so that he can get GrandLocomon to let him leave the zone. it also seems that those Digimon are/were friends of Pinnochimon. it’s one of those classic situations where someone gets left in a trash heap for ages & thinks that no one is looking for them or cares about them, but in actuality all their friends have been trying to find them all this time.

oh yeah for context it’s important to note that the Dust Zone is just a giant trash heap, and according to Pinnochimon, every bit of trash in the Digital World goes there (apparently including the resident Digimon themselves). anyways so Pinnochimon handed over the Xros Loader to GrandLocomon, but then GrandLocomon took it for themself and is now going to try and use it to leave the zone. because the place is a giant trash heap.

so now GrandLocomon is trying to build up enough speed to make a portal open to another zone. it seems like GrandLocomon has been waiting for this for a while, since there’s a little device on GrandLocomon’s back made just for a Xros Loader. but in the process GrandLocomon is tearing up various towns and cities & would likely do similar in a different zone, so Xros Heart has to stop them.

Zenjirou’s mechanic skills are coming into play again, as he’s fixing up the friendly Locomon that looks like a duck so they can go faster and catch Pinnochimon (who is hanging onto GrandLocomon for dear life)

and now that all of Pinnochimon’s friends (and Taiki) have saved him, he believes that there’s good in the world again!

Shoutmon starts sounding pretty darn valient when xrossed. could it be the others in the fusion influencing his personality? or does being very strong and tall with a sword just make Shoutmon even more confident than usual?

so now that GrandLocomon has been obliterated, the Digimon of the zone can live in peace since they no longer have to collect scrap to get oil (food) from GrandLocomon.

oh no missiles

ok there’s not actually going to be much peace until DarkKnightmon is taken care of. also, Kiriha is clearly brainwashed now and is working for DarkKnightmon.

[stoutlandchild]

Actually wait no I’m still in a DigiTrainguys mood- I eeby-deebied them both at the same time in this AU (they go on a train and Oh Shit This Is Not There Stop) but could you fucking imagine if Ingo was eeby-deebied first and Emmet gets to the Digital World and his brother became a fucking train because when your stuck in the Digital World biomerging to be a Digimon is a pretty Good idea overall.

Also the way they travel between the two worlds is jogress + biomerge to Mastemon since it can canonically make portals between different dimensions and it’s called the Tactician from another world so it’s super fitting but its just...

Mastemon’s main attack is Chaos Degrade, which, and I quote from Wikimon: “Fuses the energy of light and darkness from its arms to produce a gate to another dimension, consigning the enemy to oblivion.“

The can literally send people to Hell.

This is incredibly funny to me.

Also their other evo (just biomerging) is Grandlocomon and that guy just crashes into people with their High Speed Spiked Spinning Wheel To Rip Their Enemy Apart. This is Very Much Not Part of the Safety Protocols.

[tabsterfm]

And so, the cycle begins anew! Fun fact, the Metal Empire one still had the Grandlocomon I raised on it like half a year ago. Here's to her chugging along in digi-stasis.

And now, they're born! Extremely love the Baby I Digimon sprites where it's just a wee little blob of barely any detail. Shame that design philosophy can only work for so long, huh?

One reason I really like these devices is for their close-ups as seen here. The gimmick is directly taken from the X series, my 2nd favorite v-pet series right next to the Pen20ths because damn, nothing can top those rosters. Shame the PenZ's method of training is no where near as fun as it was on the PenOGs, where instead of having to spend time with your Digimon to see what shake requirement is needed and recognizing certain patterns with certain attributes of Digimon to help you in future raising endeavors, the PenZ just kinda cheats by just telling you how much to shake. Extreme bummer.

And here are the Baby IIs! Wanyamon is an absolute blast and one of my favorite Baby IIs out there. Wish it had a proper evo line to go with it. The teardrop guy is a little goofy, but I guess it fits the theme of weird things being made out of scrap metal or something??? Idk, depending how my run goes, that'll be another thing I talk about with the PenZs that I, really do not like.

One thing to notice about all these pictures is that, for some reason, the Nature Spirits device's screen has a lot of "pixel shadow" on it for a lack of a better term. This is because, seemingly, the LCD screen is somehow higher above than it usually is supposed to be, which causes the pixels to cast a shadow. I'm not sure if this is a wave-1-exclusive issue or I got me a bad quality-controlled device, but it will make taking pictures of it a little difficult, so sorry in advance if the Nature Spirits device isn't the most photogenic.

That's it for them as of now! They'll probably evolve at some point tomorrow, where I'll keep yall posted as to what I got! Thanks for reading, and until next time, this is TabsterFM raising off... that sounded better in my head lmao.
