It does not imply one, suggest one, or otherwise intimate there will ever be a sixth series. The poster is about the new third Digimon Battle Terminal 02 set, and that's what it's talking about. I don't know how to emphasize this enough. That's the main announcement of the poster -- the new third Battle Terminal 02 series is coming out soon. That's why it's surrounded by the Data Carddas and Digimon Battle Terminal 02 logos. The Digimon at the end of the banner is probably showing up in the set.

Please stop asking about it. The poster has absolutely nothing new that anyone cares about. It just has some cool pictures. It is not announcing a sixth series.]]> 1196019430 Sun, 25 Nov 2007 13:37:10 -0600 http://shiningevo.ultimatedigimon.com/index2.php?subaction=showfull&id=1195669891&archive= this picture of Breakdramon and Qinglongmon facing off and this cool shot of Examon, Slayerdramon, and Wingdramon.

It also announces the release date for Digimon Championship -- February 14th, in Japan. It looks like Coronamon and Lunamon will be reappearing. Other than that, there doesn't seem to be much new in this issue, although apparently I should start reading NEXT again.

Scans thanks to HKDMC, obviously. I can't wait for Vande's!]]> 1195669891 Wed, 21 Nov 2007 12:31:31 -0600 http://shiningevo.ultimatedigimon.com/index2.php?subaction=showfull&id=1195622330&archive= this blog, linked to by tera, Examon's attacks are Avalon's Gate, Pendragon's Glory, and Dragonic Impact. It also provides a much better picture of Examon. Slayerdramon, too. Slayerdramon's visible attacks are 天竜斬破 - Tenryuuzanha (Heavenly Dragon Slash Breaker, or something) and Kouryuuzanha (which has no visible kanji, so I assume it's Light Dragon Slash Breaker.)

Crossposted on the forums.

EDIT: New pictures of Slayerdramon reveal that the kanji in Slayerdramon's attack isn't the right one for light, so it's something else.]]> 1195622330 Tue, 20 Nov 2007 23:18:50 -0600 http://shiningevo.ultimatedigimon.com/index2.php?subaction=showfull&id=1193280745&archive=
First of all, there's a new Royal Knight announced -- Examon (EGUZAMON). Wingdramon's final form is Slayerdramon, Examon apparently evolves from Breakdramon and Slayerdramon. Don't get too excited: Examon is pretty ugly.

Evolve.8 will also include the Four Holy Beasts, plus Huanglongmon. It'll be coming out in January 2008, so it's not too too far away. 42 cards total, 30 Normal, 6 Silver Rare (Slayerdramon is a Silver Rare), 5 Gold Rare, and 1 Rainbow Rare. Examon is a Gold Rare, thankfully, meaning that he'll be showing up in plenty of online auctions we can get scans from, because he's rare but not incredibly rare like Huanglongmon, who'll be the Rainbow Rare. Don't ask me why they changed the naming scheme for rarity.

You can check out a scan provided by tera that includes pictures of Examon and Slayerdramon here. Examon is the hideous winged thing, and Slayerdramon is the bluish dragon with a long tail wielding a flame-torrent sword-thing. Also, thanks to Splash for pointing out the picture was there, because I didn't notice.

Moving on, this month's V-Jump also announced a new Japanese Nintendo DS game, Digimon Championship. It'll be coming out sometime in 2008, is made by Bandai-Namco, and is a Raise-then-Battle RPG, or something like that. Apparently, though, you can't control your Digimon in battle. There'll be over 200 Digimon making an appearance in this game. It's about battle tournaments and stuff, which reminds me of D-1 Tamers. Thanks to Stunt on DDF for bringing that to my attention.]]> 1193280745 Wed, 24 Oct 2007 21:52:25 -0500 http://shiningevo.ultimatedigimon.com/index2.php?subaction=showfull&id=1191289524&archive= here.]]> 1191289524 Mon, 1 Oct 2007 20:45:24 -0500
