CLOCKMON
This is a pretty interesting digimon, an adult stage with a humanoid puppet for an upper body and a robotic alarm clock for a lower body. Despite only being an Adult stage, Clockmon's mastery over time is said to be so powerful that it must maintain absolute neutrality, lest it disrupt the balance of the digital world entirely. Huh.
I want to say that the clock body is much more adorable with its single, staring eye and that I prefer it as the "true" body, but the design looks fairly plain without the puppet torso, as seen in more recent anime and trading cards. I prefer to think that it can simply pull inside the clock as needed, like a really weird snail.
Hilariously, Clockmon's ability to time travel is limited to time periods between 1900 and 1999; the same range digital clocks were once limited to in order to save a couple measly bytes of space.RATING:
