<Html><head><title>Game maniacos</title></head><body BACKGROUND=back.jpg text=red> SECTION 1: FILE CITY You wake up in File City, surrounded by numerous in-training Digimon and Jijimon. Jijimon will tell you your purpose in Digimon World: the Digimon of File Island have all left the city because of some mysterious force, and their world is in danger! As a talented Digimon trainer, you must go out and explore File Island and convince the once friendly Digimon to return to the File City. This will not be an easy task, so you are given your own rookie Digimon to assist you: either a Gabumon or an Agumon. When Jijimon is finished talking, you are then free to explore Digimon World to the best of your ability. * You will not be able to survive without items. Talk to Tokomon in Jijimon's house, and he will give you enough items to get started on your journey. * Talk to Tanemon, who is located a little north of Jijimon's house. Tanemon runs a meat farm, and will give you three pieces of regular meat per day for your hungry Digimon. * Training is essential to your new rookie Digimon. Without sufficient training, your Digimon will not meet the specifications for champion Digimon and may digivolve into the awful Numemon. You can train in Green Gym, which is located west of File City. You can always train as long as you want and anytime for free, but make sure your Digimon doesn't exhaust himself! Once you're satisfied with the training of your new Digimon, you can then wander around Native Forest and the surrounding areas. Native Forest is located south of Green Gym, and west of File City's main square. SECTION 2: NATIVE FOREST Native Forest is the best place for beginners to explore. Most enemy Digimon have around 300 HP, and their attacks are not lethal, so it's a good training ground for young rookie Digimon. Be sure to fight Modoki Betamon as often as possible, because they often drop sm. recovery, which you'll need to stock up on if you want to be able to travel farther in the game. Native Forest is home to six recruitable Digimon, but you'll only be able to find four of them early in the game. Also, be sure to keep an eye out for Digimushrooms that appear randomly on the forest floor; they make a good snack when your Digimon is hungry and you're short on food. Recruitment Digimon! Upon entering Native Forest, you will meet up with an Agumon who will battle you. You cannot escape this battle, and you must defeat Agumon before you can enter Native Forest any deeper. Defeat Agumon and he will join the city, opening up a convenient shop to hold any extra items that you may have. Agumon can hold up to 100 different kinds of items, which comes in very handy since you can only carry 10 different items with you at a time. Recruitment Digimon! In Native Forest, you will find an area called Kunemon's bed which is located east of the Native Forest toilet. There, you will see Kunemon sitting on a large bush. What's the problem? Kunemon's hungry! Feed him a food item from your inventory, and he will challenge you to a fight. Win, and Kunemon will join the city. Kunemon has about 900 HP, so make sure that your Digimon has comparable stats. When you win, Kunemon opens a new path in the city's main square. When you return to the city and talk to Kunemon, he will tell you about eating through the bushes to make the path. This path leads you to the Digital Bridge area, which is a lot easier than walking all the way around Native Forest and back up to get to the bridge! Recruitment Digimon! Palmon is hiding in Native Forest. She says she's a flower. Find Palmon south of the Native Forest toilet. She will be facing away from you. Talk to her, and she will tell you that she is a flower. Keep talking to her until she fights you. Defeat her, and Palmon will join the city and upgrade the meat farm for you, relieving a very happy Tanemon. Tanemon will now be found lounging around in one of the planters, while Palmon runs the farm! Palmon will give you three giant meats a day now, which should help feed those your Digimon. Recruitment Digimon! One of the most important Digimon you will encounter in the game's early stages is Coelamon. Talk to Yuramon and Tsunomon, and they will tell you about a mysterious shadow that appears at Coela Point each afternoon. Coela Point is the beach a couple screens south of Digimon Bridge. Head to Coela Point during the afternoon, and talk to the shadow that is swimming close to the shore. A Coelamon should emerge from the water, allowing you to cross to the other shore. Cross to the other side, then go north, following the shore. By the time you get to the bridge, it should have been repaired, and you will then be able to cross at any time. Go back to Coela Point and talk to Coelamon, and he will join the city. Coelamon opens an item stand in the city square, where you can buy the items small recovery, regular meat, and MP floppies. Recruitment Digimon! To the east of Palmon's spot, you will find a tree that has a door on it. The door tells you that no one's home and to go away, but of course you're curious! Come to this door after the door Mount Infinity has been opened, and you'll find a surprise waiting for you in the tree! It's Etemon! Etemon does anywhere from 500-1000 points of damage to your Digimon before the battle even starts, so be prepared! As an ultimate Digimon, Etemon has about 6000 HP. After defeating him, Etemon will join the city, only to be kicked out by the other Digimon! You can find him sulking near the Digimon Bridge, but also willing to sell you a Golden Banana, the Etemon digivolution item, for 50,000 bits. Recruitment Digimon! The last Digimon of Native Forest isn't really in Native Forest, but rather is located near the Digimon Bridge. Ninjamon will appear randomly during the night if you walk south past the Bridge. He will challenge you to a battle, and if you can defeat him, he will join the city. Ninjamon hangs out in the secret item shop, and is always willing to give you information about items. Well, now you're probably wondering, where do I go? And if you've seen Dragon Eye Lake, you're probably wondering how you catch the fish. Well, all in time. You've only started. ^_^ Next up is the Drill Tunnel and the Tropical Jungle! I'm going to put the Tropical Jungle first because going through the Mangrove Region gets you the item shop upgrade right away, but you can do the Drill Tunnel first if you'd like. Actually, you might find that you have to alternate between the Drill Tunnel and the Tropical Jungle, if you'd like to save time. SECTION 3: TROPICAL JUNGLE To the east of Digital Bridge, you will find enemies that are much tougher than those in Native Forest. Hopefully you have digivolved your rookie Digimon into a strong champion Digimon so you can efficiently adventure through the jungle. Tropical Jungle's recruitment Digimon are mostly Digimon that will upgrade currently running shops, but you can also find a helpful new shop with Centarumon. Recruitment Digimon! Piximon can be found from time to time hovering around on the main screen of Tropical Jungle, south of the Digimon Bridge. You can tell if you're on the right screen if there are two Muchomon (during the daytime) or two J-Mojyamon (during the night), and if there are three directions to go from that screen. Spotting Piximon is very rare; I've been told that Piximon shows up at the same time every day, but that it is different in every game. Make sure that you pay attention to what time of day it is if you see him, so that if you can't defeat him then you know what time to return later. Thank you to everyone who e-mailed me and told me about Piximon's daily routine, your help is much appreciated! When you finally find him, Piximon is no easy battle! As an ultimate Digimon, he's tough to defeat; unless you've got a strong Digimon and effective techniques. Watch out for Piximon's confusion storm! Once you defeat Piximon, he appears in the Item shop from time to time, selling his training manual for a mere 50,000 bits. Recruitment Digimon! Betamon can be found in the east section of the Tropical Jungle, near the Mangrove Region. To find Betamon, head east in Piximon's screen to the small wooden bridge. Cross the bridge but don't go to the next screen to the east. Instead, head north (up, not north towards Digimon Bridge) and you will come to an area with a ModokiBetamon. Pass the ModokiBetamon up and head west, where you will find Betamon. Talk to him and he will join the city. Betamon helps Coelamon at the item shop, adding a few special items of his own. Recruitment Digimon! Centarumon can be found in the Amida Forest, which can be found by heading east from the small wooden bridge and then north from the screen with the readable sign. Centarumon isn't welcoming to strangers in his forest, and if he spots you in the Amida Forest, he will shoot you. He halves your Digimon's HP with each shot, until your Digimon is left with only 1 HP. When your Digimon has only 1 HP, you will be kicked out of the Amida Forest and forced to start all again. Your job is to head to the back of the Amida Forest, to find the door that is marked with an O instead of an X. So what's the trick to getting past Centarumon? Well, one thing is, don't let him see you! Centarumon can't see you if you hide behind the northern part of the small rows, and thus you won't get shot as often. If you do get shot, feed your Digimon a recovery floppy, so that he doesn't get injured and thrown out of the forest. Once you do make it to the row marked with an O, Centarumon will greet you and join the city. Centarumon opens up a clinic in the city, selling medicine and healing your monster's tiredness. He will also open the door to the Ancient Dino Region for you. Recruitment Digimon! Perhaps you've heard from Tanemon about a strange plant that grows somewhere in the Tropical Jungle. If you go to the plant, which is located north of Piximon's screen then east from the Tropical Jungle toilet, you will find that the plant is dying of thirst! Don't you hope it rains soon? If you can't solve the problem of helping the plant out, check near Tanemon's planter box on the 15th of the month. There will be a rain plant growing there, and you can take it to use on the tiny plant. Once you use the rain plant, a Vegiemon will grow from the tiny sprout! Vegiemon will join the city, and will take over Palmon's job at the meat farm. Vegiemon will now give you three sirloins a day and will allow you to buy hawk radishes and super carrots: items used for training. Unlike Palmon, Vegiemon will not allow you to buy extra meat, so don't waste any sirloin! Beyond the Tropical Jungle lies Overdell, Ancient Dino Region, and Great Canyon. You can explore these areas now if you'd like, or head back and work with the Drimogemon in the Drill Tunnel. Great Canyon is a good place to explore, and a good way to work for some extra money if you need it. Overdell might not be accessible to you yet, but it's always worth a visit. Ancient Dino Region is a good place to learn new fire and wind techniques, while also recruiting one new Digimon. SECTION 4: DRILL TUNNEL To the west of Native Forest you will find the Drill Tunnel. Drimogemon live in the drill tunnel; you'll find three Drimogemon working hard to dig a path to Mount Panorama. Today they're digging. Tomorrow they're digging. It's so fun. ^_^ Actually, for you it's not so fun. The Drimogemon are a bit slow, so you'll have to wait while they open up the tunnel to Mount Panorama. The good thing about the Drill Tunnel is that there are enemies, but that the enemies won't chase you and they will only battle you if you bump into them. They're stationary Goburimon, so it shouldn't be a problem. On the Drill Tunnel's second floor, cross the bridge to the west and talk to the Drimogemon there. He will battle you, so be prepared! This Drimogemon has about 1200 HP, which is still a reasonably easy battle for your Digimon. If you defeat him he will promise to work hard to finish the drill tunnel. Only, he's the cook and doesn't drill at all. ^_^ After defeating him, head out and go back over the bridge. To the south, you will find the third floor of the Drill Tunnel, where a Drimogemon is happily digging. He tells you that it will take a long time, so come back later. Wonder what he means? You can't do anything more with that Drimogemon, so head back to the screen with the three Goburimon, then head east. You will find a Drimogemon digging, with a large pile of dirt behind him. If you talk to him, he'll employ you to carry dirt out of the tunnel, so that the digging can go faster. He'll pay you 500 bits for each trip you make, but be careful! You cannot leave the drill tunnel until you've dumped the dirt outside and returned the dirt tray, so make sure your Digimon has everything that he needs! Oh, by the way, there's no toilet in the Drill Tunnel, so make sure your Digimon has already gone before. You don't want to add to all the dirty stuff in the tunnel, do you? ^_^ After you're done hauling however much dirt you want to (you can haul one load or ten loads, it doesn't matter), you must leave the dirt tunnel and wait a few days for them to finish. A few days later, you'll find that the Drimogemon that you helped has opened the tunnel, but has found a big rock blocking the entrance. Your Digimon can handle the rock, easily pushing it out of the way. Recruitment Digimon! Behind the massive rock you will find the Lava Cave. The Lava Cave is home to Meramon, the fiery Digimon. Meramon is angry about what is happening to Digimon World, and wants to stop it by destroying all he can. When you interrupt him, he challenges you and your Digimon to a battle. Meramon is an easy battle, and when you defeat him, he will join the city. After you recruit Meramon, the Native Forest entrance to Mount Panorama is cleared and you are free to explore there. Meramon joins the city as the resident chef; he opens a restaurant across from the item stand, and serves several meals that raise your Digimon's stats. Note that your Digimon will only eat at the restaurant if he's hungry, and will refuse the food if he's not. Restaurant meals can only be eaten then and there, and are not sold as items to be carried with you. After Meramon's gone from the Drill Tunnel, the lava river should be gone and you should be able to walk around down in that area. If you head north down in that moat-like area, you should happen upon a few DemiMeramon in the cave. The DemiMeramon are not hostile and will talk to you, not fight you. At the end of the moat, you will find a couple of Item Computers. In the area with the DemiMeramon that talks about cards, run along the eastern wall to find a hidden passageway with two Item Computers. These Item Computers hold a Brain Chip and a Quick Chip, helpful items at this point of the game. (Thanks to psychic_strata, who found this hidden area! ^_^ ) Besides the Item Computers in the Drill Tunnel, there's nothing really left to find. Head south in the moat until you find the Drimogemon again. He's digging again, and talking to him informs you that he will be done soon. Come back in a few days, and you will be free to run through to Mount Panorama anytime you'd like. Recruitment Digimon! Talk to the Drimogemon once he's done, and he'll join the city as its treasure hunter. Drimogemon will find you treasure for either 1,000 or 5,000 bits. Give him 1,000 bits, and hewill search for five days. Return anytime after five days and he will give you an item that he found. For 5,000 bits, he will go for ten days. Generally, the 5,000 bit package will give you a better item, but sometimes Drimogemon brings back worthless items anyway, so it's all based on luck. When you go to pick up your item, make sure you have an empty space in your inventory, otherwise Drimogemon will say you have no room and will not even give you the item at another time!!! Be careful about that! Now you're probably wondering about the Drimogemon on the third level. He's always digging, no matter how many times you come back! Well, he did tell you that it would be quite a long time, didn't he? This Drimogemon will not be done until your city's prosperity rating is higher than 45. He stops digging because he finds a room where he bumps into an ancient tablet, with the word Leomon on it. Hmmm, what could it be for? ^_^ Recruitment Digimon! Ogremon has escaped from you twice already, running from both his Great Canyon and Secret Beach Cave hideouts. He's now taken over the Drill Tunnels, and once you enter he will challenge you to a battle. Defeat him this last time, and he will tell you that he is sorry for what he has done. Ogremon will join the city; he patrols the city, keeping an eye out for any shady looking characters. Nanimon sighting! Once you recieve Leomon's tablet, return to the cave and look to the left of where the tablet once was. You should find Nanimon hiding there. If this is the first time you have seen Nanimon, he will drop the Digital Keychain that will allow you to carry 20 items in your inventory. If this is the fifth time that you are seeing Nanimon, then he will drop a second Digital Keychain that will allow you to carry 30 items, and he will join the city! Nanimon can be found in five different areas on File Island, so if you're having trouble finding him, consult these sections: Great Canyon, Toy Town, Ancient Dino Region, and Factorial Town. To recruit him, you'll have to see him in all five areas. The Drill Tunnel is complete once you find the tablet, so there's not much reason to be in there after that! By the way, if you're stuck on how to get back into the Drill Tunnel instead of going through to Mount Panorama, when they want to know if you should run through, say no and you can enter the tunnel normally. SECTION 5: ANCIENT DINO REGION Ancient Dino Region is a strange place. In the Glacial Zone, time moves slower than normal. In the Speedy Zone, time runs faster than normal. Ancient Dino Region is home to many dinosaur type Digimon (as you may have guessed ^_^ ) such as Monochromon types, Brachiomon, and Tyrannomon himself. Tyrannomon is the guardian of the doorways in Ancient Dino Region, so to enter the region in the beginning, you will have to battle him. To get to the Ancient Dino Region, go to the Amida Forest where you met Centarumon, and go through any one of the back entrances. You will find yourself in the Ancient Dino Region, ready to explore! Recruitment Digimon! Tyrannomon is the only recruitable Digimon in the Ancient Dino Region. When you first enter the Ancient Dino Region, he will challenge you to a fight. When you defeat him, he'll talk to you for a bit, but then return to guard the doorway to the Ancient Speedy Zone. Find him at the doorway, and he will tell you about a mysterious meteorite that fell somewhere in the Speedy Zone. Tyrannomon will then move over, allowing you passage into the Speedy Zone. Be careful in the Speedy Zone! Make sure your Digimon is young; you don't want him fading away right in the middle of your mission. Also, make sure you have a good supply of food and a few portable potties, since your Digimon will want items more often. When you first enter the Speedy Zone, head north. Keep heading north until you see one solitary Saberdramon (the black Birdramon), and battle him. Defeat him and he will tell you that there is a hidden entrance in the previous screen. Return there, to the screen with the gigantic caging skeleton, and run along the left wall. You should find a small passageway that will take you to the meteorite. Follow the path north, and you will find the meteorite huddled in a corner. Actually, it's a Meteormon, which recently fell from the sky. Once you finish talking to him, return to Tyrannomon and tell him what happened. Tyrannomon's master will tell him to help you out by joining the city, and Tyrannomon will take up residence in Meramon's restaurant: cooking up burgers and other tasty treats. Nanimon sighting! If you return to the Ancient Speedy Zone after speaking with Tyrannomon, you will find Nanimon in the same spot where you found Meteormon. If this is the first time you have seen Nanimon, he will drop the Digital Keychain that will allow you to carry 20 items in your inventory. If this is the fifth time that you are seeing Nanimon, then he will drop a second Digital Keychain that will allow you to carry 30 items, and he will join the city! Nanimon can be found in five different areas on File Island, so if you're having trouble finding him, consult these sections: Great Canyon, Toy Town, Drill Tunnel, and Factorial Town. To recruit him, you'll have to see him in all five areas. South of the entrance to the Speedy Zone, you will see a Monochromon and a Sabremon. These two are not recruitable, but are just here to give you a bit of information. The Sabredramon tells you about what he saw while flying around, and the Monochromon tells you that he's not interested in joining the city. Instead, Monochromon tells you about the Monochromon who owns the Great Canyon shop, which you can recruit. You may have already done this, but that's all he says anyways. ^_^ Besides recruiting Tyrannomon and seeing Nanimon, there's nothing much to do in the Ancient Dino Region, so time to move on! SECTION 6: OVERDELL Heading back east again through the Tropical Jungle, you will find Overdell. You may be able to tackle Overdell Cemetary's Grey Lord's Mansion now, or you might not, depending on the type of Digimon that you have with you. Once you enter the Overdell Region, you will notice that there are a large amount of Darkrizamon patrolling the area. The two guards in front of the cemetary gate are easy to get by, if you don't want to battle them. Move close to the Darkrizamon on the left, then back away as he runs toward you. Run around him as he does his small patrol circle, then enter through the cemetary gate. Once you enter Overdell Cemetary, you will notice Tsukaimon and an occassional Soulmon, which is a Bakemon with a black hat. Recruitment Digimon! In Overdell Cemetary, you will find a Bakemon floating around. Make sure that you talk to Bakemon and not Soulmon! Bakemon is NOT wearing a hat, like the Soulmon wear. Bakemon isn't too bright, as you can see, and he doesn't speak english. Talk to Bakemon, and he will ask you three questions. You must answer his questions yes or no, and if you get the right combination then he will join the city. If you would actually like to know what Bakemon is asking you, bring your own Bakemon partner Digimon along with you to Overdell. Your partner Bakemon will be able to translate Bakemon's questions for you. If you're stumped about what the right combination is, try: Yes, Yes, No. Bakemon will then join the city, where he does absolutely nothing but float around the city square, and you still can't understand him unless you have your own partner Bakemon. Bakke!? ^_^ After recruiting Bakemon, you will probably be curious about the mansion in front of you. The Mansion is Grey Lord's Mansion, and your Digimon will be allowed to enter only if he is a virus type Digimon. Examples of virus type Digimon are Numemon, Sukamon, Kuwagamon, Metal Greymon, Megadramon, and Devimon. If you are worried about taking a Digimon like Numemon or Sukamon into the mansion, don't worry because there aren't really any tough battles except for Skull Greymon, and that's not for a while anyways. I took a Numemon through the mansion, and had no problems searching the mansion. However, I didn't take on Skull Greymon with a Numemon. Once you enter the mansion, most of the doors will be locked. But just your luck! One door is unlocked! The door to the right of the stairs (lower level) is unlocked and ready for exploring. Note that in the first room there is a toilet, just in case your Digimon has to go. Go west through a couple rooms, then south where you enter the Dining Room of the mansion. In the Dining Room, you can see a shiny sparkle coming from the ashes in the fireplace. (Almost like a Dragoon Spirit! ^_^ ) It is actually a key: the key to many of the doors in Grey Lord's Mansion. Search all of the rooms that you can open, because many of them have Item Computers that have a variety of stat chips for your Digimon. In the room with the stairs, go up and you will find two Item Computers, and two Rockmon. The Rockmon are hostile, so if you don't want a battle, don't try talking to them. They're not friendly. Head southeast past the Rockmon, to an area where the ground is like a metal caging. Walk around in the southeast corner, and you should break the caging and fall into another room. Head to the door to the north, and you will be in a room with a coffin. Inspect the coffin and you'll find that it is really a door to a hidden lab. Myotismon lies on the ground, weak from hunger. He's been working so hard that he's forgotten to eat! Don't worry, this Myotismon isn't like the one from the television series. He's a nice Myotismon. ^_^ Myotismon wants you to bring him some steak, which can be found in the mansion's locked refrigerator. He gives you the key, and tells you to hurry. Return to the mansion's toilet room, then enter the room to the west. The bluish door on the wall is the refrigerator. But when you finally get it open, the meat is gone!!! Maybe one of those suspicious looking Soulmon stole it. They give you a clue to "return to where the stupid one gave you points." What are they talking about? Well, it seems that the Soulmon are a little bitter. Bakemon is the "stupid" one they are talking about. The points he gave you are the city's prosperity points, which you got when he joined the city. Exit the mansion through the front door, and you should find the piece of steak outside on the ground. Pick it up and take it back to Myotismon, who will thank you and explain his problem. Myotismon will NOT join the city, even though he says that his men will go to the battle arena to stay sharp. Sorry to all of you who like Myotismon. ^_^ But if you are looking to recruit a new Digimon, your answer could be found in Myotismon's "secret research project." Recruitment Digimon! Myotismon has been working on something funny behind that force field locked door. But what is it? Well, to find out, read Shellmon's bulletin board post about Myotismon being missing. Next, talk to Angemon in Jijimon's house, if you have Angemon, and he will tell you about searching the mansion for clues. Return to Grey Lord's Mansion, and visit the dining hall room where Myotismon usually is. He's not there, so run upstairs to his office and enter the lab area where you first found Myotismon when he asked for steak. He won't be there either, so run downstairs and try to leave the mansion. When you do, Devimon should confront you. He won't fight you, but when he leaves the force field on the locked door is lifted, and you are free to explore the underground lab. Go through the door and down the elevator, and you will find yourself in a strange factory-like area. Pass the two circling Darkrizamon and you will find yourself left with a choice. There are two doors: one guarded by a solitary Tekkamon and one guarded by three Darkrizamon. Tekkamon's door is the correct one; if you try the Darkrizamon door, it'll be a fake. Go through the correct door and you should find Myotismon lying in a caged area. Head north on the screen, and you should find yourself face to face with Skull Greymon, Myotismon's experiment! Fight Skull Greymon and defeat him, and he will disappear. Run back to Myotismon and help him up, and he will thank you. Myotismon will now return to his spot in the dining hall, so leave the underground lab area and visit him in the dining hall. His words are caught up in a glitch, so you can't really hear everything he has to say. Well, that's it for Grey Lord's Mansion! You're probably thinking, "wait, how do I recruit Skull Greymon?" Releasing Myotismon from the caged area automatically recruits Skull Greymon, even though you don't get the happy little recruitment message. ^_^ Now that Grey Lord's Mansion is complete, you may leave the Overdell area. Beware of the two Darkrizamon guards at the gate again if your Digimon is lacking life. If you want to avoid fighting them, as soon as you leave the cemetary grounds screen, hold down right on the D-Pad and you should run right past them before they even know what's going on. ^_^ SECTION 7: GREAT CANYON Is it anything like the Grand Canyon? Well, I guess it could be, but don't think that there are any invisible bridges in the Grand Canyon, or else you might have a problem! Great Canyon is home to many varieties of enemy Digimon, as well as recruitment Digimon such as Birdramon, Shellmon, and Monochromon. You will also find a gang of bandits in Great Canyon led by Ogremon; this gang lives on the canyon floor and operates the two elevators found in this area. Recruitment Digimon! Monochromon's shop is most likely the first thing you'll see on your visit to Great Canyon. His shop is located right next to the Great Canyon toilet, and you are welcome to visit him at any time. Monochromon makes a deal with you. Business has been slow lately, so he employs you for eight hours to see how much you can sell to various Digimon customers. This is an excellent task to do if you're short on cash, but be warned! Eight hours is a lot of time to be working for 500 or 1500 bits! But Monochromon's mini-game is fun anyways, so the money doesn't really matter. Various customers will come in during your eight hour shift and ask for items. Your job is to sell them their items for as much as you can, without making the customer upset. If you raise the price too high, they will leave and buy nothing. If you lower the price too much, the customer is happy, but you make little profit. To pass Monochromon's test, you must make a profit of more than 3,000 bits. Your total profit is shown to you after each sale. Here are some tips on each customer and kind of item: * Customer Digimon will ask for regular meat, portable potties, and medicine. Medicine makes you the most profit, and meat makes you the least. What they ask for is all chance. If you get more than two medicine offers, then consider yourself lucky! * Meat should sell at around 55 bits, or 60 if possible. Portable Potties should sell for around 360 bits, or 390 bits at most. Medicine is more flexible. Medicine can easily be sold at 1300 bits, but sometimes Digimon will pay 1400 bits. * Gotsumon are the best customers. They are polite, and will pay almost anything you ask for. They're especially funny when they come in and say, "Man, I sure could use a portable potty!" Gotsumon mostly ask for portable potties. * Weedmon are the worst customers. They are rude and hate paying high prices. They want items for the original price or sometimes even at below price. The good thing is that they usually ask for meat, so you won't lose too much profit on these guys. * Muchomon are the last type of customer Digimon you'll encounter. Muchomon rarely come in, and when they do they will usually ask for medicine. Muchomon are wishy-washy and unpredictable. Sometimes they'll pay a high price, and sometimes they will walk out on the first offer, even though it may be a reasonable one. Once you sell more than 3,000 bits worth of items, Monochromon will congratulate you and inform you that it was all a test to see if you were good enough to save the island. Monochromon will join the city, and will take Betamon and Coelamon's place selling items. Only this time, Monochromon (or another item shop Digimon, if you already have one) will build a permanent Item Shop. The Item shop is the red brick building in File City. The item shop sells much more of a variety than the item stand sold, which will help you out in the long run. Recruitment Digimon! Yuramon has heard rumors of a gang of bandits living in Great Canyon that have been robbing anyone passing through that area. The gang is led by Ogremon, and mostly consists of rookie Digimon like Gabumon and Agumon. After hearing Yuramon's rumor, you will be attacked by Ogremon and his assistants when you pass through the forked area east of Monochromon's shop. If you can defeat them, they will retreat to their hideout, which is located on the canyon floor. You can't get there by the elevator, since Ogremon controls the elevators, but there is still a way. The forked road where Ogremon attacked you is the key to this. To the left of the forked road, you will find that the ground is unstable. If you walk around on it enough, it will collapse and send you falling to the canyon floor. You and your Digimon aren't hurt too bad, and you can now follow Ogremon into his fortress. Ogremon's fortress is full of Agumon and a few Gabumon, easy battles for your Digimon. There are a few Item Computers in Ogremon's fortress, some with great items. In the back of Ogremon's Fortress, you'll find Ogremon himself. Battle him and his assistants again, and when he loses he'll escape. Ogremon also opens a back door to his hideout, which you really should check for more items. Once you do that, follow Ogremon up the elevator he escaped in. You won't find Ogremon up there, but you will find Shellmon, who needs some help! Ogremon's recruitment will be continued in the Freezeland and Drill Tunnel sections. Nanimon sighting! After you defeat Ogremon in his Fortress, you may randomly find Nanimon lounging around near the back elevator. If this is the first time you have seen Nanimon, he will drop the Digital Keychain that will allow you to carry 20 items in your inventory. If this is the fifth time that you are seeing Nanimon, then he will drop a second Digital Keychain that will allow you to carry 30 items, and he will join the city! Nanimon can be found in five different areas on File Island, so if you're having trouble finding him, consult these sections: Ancient Dino Region, Toy Town, Drill Tunnel, and Factorial Town. To recruit him, you'll have to see him in all five areas. Recruitment Digimon! Shellmon is stuck and needs some help! Apparently, he was standing on the canyon top when suddenly the ground shifted, sending him high up in the air. Actually, you are the cause of Shellmon's misery. When you took the fortress elevator up, it shifted the canyon ground that was above it. Shellmon was on top of it, and is now stuck. To find him, take Ogremon's elevator up from his fortress. Now, go east over a bridge, and on the next screen you should encounter a Goburimon. Defeat him, and cross the bridge to the north. Shellmon should speak to you from that point. To help him, take the elevator back down. You'll have to find another way to reach Shellmon now, and here's how to do it. Leave Ogremon's fortress and head east until you find the main elevator. Push up once, then on the next floor exit the elevator. Head northwest, towards the metal bridge. Cross over into Freezeland, but don't go to the next screen to the north. Instead, hang a left past the heater and cross the other metal bridge, similar to the one you just crossed. There you'll find Shellmon. Talk to him, and he'll join the city. Shellmon runs the city paper/bulletin board, which you can read at anytime. It's a good place to find clues about where to go next and what to do. Recruitment Digimon! Birdramon awaits you in his nest at the top of the canyon. To get there, press up on the main elevator to go to the top floor. If you're on the canyon floor, press up twice. When you get to the canyon's top, you will see a metal bird's nest. Walk to it, and Birdramon will attack you. Defeat him, and he will join the city as a transport service. For a small fee, Birdramon will fly you to a section of the island that you have visited before. Birdra's Transport is a nice addition to your city, and allows you to go to any other section of the island instantly. No time is taken off for using Birdramon's Transport. But be careful!!! Carry an Auto Pilot with you just in case you're in a hurry to get back; Birdramon only drops you off, he doesn't return you to File City. Beyond Great Canyon you can find Freezeland, home to Digimon World's icy Digimon. It's a good place to go if you're looking for new recruitment Digimon, so check it out! Or if you haven't been to the Ancient Dino Region, head back to the Tropical Jungle so that you can help Tyrannomon with his problem! SECTION 8: FREEZELAND Freezeland is the home of ice-based Digimon. Here you can find many recruitable Digimon, as well as a profitable trading business which will fill your pocket easily. Mind your Digimon though; some Digimon dislike the cold climate and can become sick if they stay in Freezeland too long. And being sick is not a good thing--or is it? Recruitment Digimon! Angemon can be found in the Ice Sanctuary of Freezeland, trapped as a statue. You can only enter the Ice Sanctuary if your Digimon is of the vaccine type. I've never really had a problem entering the Ice Sanctuary, because a majority of the Digimon I've had are vaccine. The Ice Sanctuary is located northwest of the Freezeland toilet. When you first enter the Ice Sanctuary, you will see Angemon's glowing statue. Inspect the statue up close, and your Digimon will alert you to a hidden passageway underneath it. Head down the passageway, into a small hallway with Gotsumon and a blue Meramon. If you head north to the end of the hallway, you will find a training area, but nothing else. The secret to the Ice Sanctuary is a hidden passage in the eastern wall of the main hallway. Near the Gotsumon, you will find a darkened portion of the wall on your right side. Walk against it, and you will find that it is really an open passage. Continue on through the passageway, where Gururumon and Hyogamon patrol. Enter the next room, and you will find four teleporting devices. Teleporting devices look like columns of light that have black pyramids within them. Be careful which teleporter you walk into though! Only one of them is the correct one which will let you continue on your journey. The other three place you in random places in the Ice Sanctuary: in front of the Ice Sanctuary, in the training area, or back out with Angemon's statue. To save you some trouble, here's the answer. When you first enter the room with the teleporters, head to the east and use the first teleporter you see there. You will end up with more enemies to fight, but on the right path. In the next room that has transporters, take the northeastern transporter. This transporter will take you to the final room, where a Hyogamon and two Gotsumon will be waiting for you. Defeat all three, and you will be able to free Angemon's spirit, which you can find near the southern wall of the room. Once his spirit has left, leave the sanctuary basement. The only important thing is that you have to come up from the stairs that your Digimon found underneath Angemon. Once you do, Angemon will greet you, and tell you about his plans for joining the city. Angemon will join the city as Jijimon's assistant, and will give you information about where to look next for recruitment Digimon. Recruitment Digimon! Penguinmon runs the local curling rink in Freezeland. You will find him in the small cave near the Mojyamon ice flows. The ice flows can be found if you head east two screens from the Freezeland toilet, then south one screen. That's fine, but what's curling you ask? Curling might be the most addicting game in File City; that is, if you have enough fish to pay Penguinmon! Penguinmon will explain it pretty thoroughly if you've never played before. Your job is to beat him at his own game, which isn't hard because the computer AI isn't too great at curling. Penguinmon will let you play the first game for free, but if you lose, then you'll have to bring back a fish to play again. When you beat him at curling, Penguinmon will join the city and set up a curling arena in the basement of Greymon's Battle Arena. Penguinmon is a good way to stock up on items if you enjoy playing curling for long periods of time. For one fish, he will play a game with you. If you win, he will give you an item, such as a giant meat or an omnipotent. It doesn't matter what type of fish you give him, so if you're in a hurry just snatch up some anchovies down by the lake. Recruitment Digimon! Mojyamon inhabit the ice flows of Freezeland. They are traders by nature and will often give you expensive items for fairly cheap ones. There are three Mojyamons in Freezeland, each asking for different items. Southwestern Mojyamon Southern Mojyamon Southerneastern Mojyamon********************** ****************** ************************Omnipotent Giant Meat Happy MushroomMed. Recovery Speed Disk Digi MushroomDigiAnchovy Black Trout Super Carrot As the game progresses, the Mojyamon in the southwest corner will become your best friend, but make sure you always have an Auto Pilot with you! Each Mojyamon asks for three different items, and if you can bring each of them all three of their desired items, one of them will join the city. Make sure that you watch which Mojyamon you are trading with; when you finish trading, the last one to recieve their three items will join the city, and you will not be able to trade with him anymore. Make sure that you do not trade with the southwestern Mojyamon last! He is the most important one! The southwestern Mojyamon will be your money maker. To trade with this Mojyamon for money, first bring with you an Auto Pilot, 99 med. recoveries, and 99 anchovies. (You don't have to bring both, and you don't have to bring 99. Just bring as many as you can afford.) Talk to the southwestern Mojyamon, and trade him all of your med. recoveries and anchovies. He will give you Super Speed and Defense Disks for your trouble. Be careful, because this Mojyamon traps you in a glitch, and you'll be stuck in that spot after trading. Don't panic. Trade everything you need to trade with the southwestern Mojyamon, then use the Auto Pilot to take you back to the city. Take all the Disks that you got from the Mojyamon to the Item Shop, and sell them for 2,000 bits a piece! For every 99 disks you trade, you'll get 198,000 bits. Not bad, for med. recoveries that cost you 49,500 bits and anchovies that cost you 4950 for meat. Once you're done trading with all of the Mojyamons, the last trader joins the city and opens up the secret item shop, located down the stairs of the regular item shop. Mojyamon sells you recovery related items. Recruitment Digimon! If you have defeated Ogremon in his fortress, Whamon will appear in the western corner of the ice flows. It seems that Ogremon has taken over Whamon's cave as his new hideout, which Whamon is a little angry about. Choose to help him, and he will take you to the cave where Ogremon waits. Ogremon is accompanied by two Gabumon and an Airdramon, which you will have to battle. About the Gabumon, you won't really need to worry. Ogremon's attacks hit everyone, including his own comrades. They'll be passed out on the floor before you even know what's going on. Once you defeat Ogremon and his pathetic crew, they'll run away like cowards and escape in a submarine. They're headed for a new fortress: one last place to hide. Whamon is grateful to you for having restored his cave, but informs you that everything you did was for nothing. Whamon was impressed by your bravery, and wants to join the city instead of staying in his cave. Whamon ferries you back to Freezeland, then heads over to File City. Whamon serves as a second method of transport, taking you to his secret beach cave and the port side of Factorial Town. When you get back to File City, ask Whamon to take you back to his beach cave. In the back of the cave, you'll find an Item Computer with a Mysty Egg in it: Digitamamon's digivolution item! Recruitment Digimon! Shellmon's bulletin board tells about a Digimon that rescues other Digimon from the cold. What does this have to do with you? Well remember, some Digimon hate the cold. This includes fire Digimon, in-training, and baby forms. Baby and in-training Digimon simply haven't built up the strength to resist the cold yet. If you take a baby form Digimon with you to Freezeland, your Digimon may become sick. If he does, your Digimon will faint from the sickness and Frigimon will save you. Once he saves you, he tells you to be more careful with your Digimon in the cold. You can then visit Frigimon's house anytime you'd like. You tell Frigimon that you will digivolve your Digimon into a Digimon better suited for the cold climate, and once you do, return and talk to Frigimon. He will join the city as the restaurant's ice cream vendor. ^_^ Frigimon doesn't exactly understand the concept of digivolving, but that's ok. Oh, for all you meanies out there who are going to purposefully take baby Digimon out into the cold, to make your Digimon sick you cannot let it sleep. You may feed it and take it to the bathroom, but no sleeping. And for those of you who have super-baby Digimon like psychic_strata, good luck in trying to make your Digimon sick! ^_^ One last note: your Digimon cannot get sick from cold in the Ice Sanctuary. Sorry! Recruitment Digimon! Garurumon patrols the westernmost corner of Freezeland, south of Frigimon's house. If you talk to him, he will challenge you to a battle. Defeat Garurumon, and he will accuse you of cheating. Garurumon wants a fair fight: Digimon against Digimon. Garurumon's challenge is issued for four o'clock; I believe that you can find him both at 4am and 4pm. If you come any later than four, Garurumon won't be there. When you do get to battle Garurumon again, it's all up to your Digimon. Yup, that's right. No healing your Digimon! Make sure that your Digimon is strong enough to take on Garurumon on its own. It's sort of like Greymon's tournaments, so it's not too bad. Upon defeating Garurumon a second time, he joins the city and helps out at the restaurant. Aside from the Mojyamon trading business, you won't have much reason to visit Freezeland after recruiting all these Digimon. Garurumon's Freezeland screen can lead you to the Misty Trees area, but if you haven't gone through Mount Panorama, Gear Savanna, and Geko Swamp, it's a pretty bad idea to enter Misty Trees now. Head back to File City so that you can explore the Mount Panorama area a little. ^_^ SECTION 9: FILE CITY II: INHABITED File City will be much different than the last time that you visited it. New Digimon have arrived and set up shops. Buildings have been built. Digimon roam the streets of File City, all thanks to you. Throughout time, you will find that almost every Digimon that you recruit finds a place in the city. Here is a list of each recruitable Digimon and what they do in the city. Digimon marked with a (NRP) means that they serve no real purpose to the city, or a purpose is unnoticable.

These Digimon are triggered by talking to Jijimon. Recruitment Digimon! After talking to Jijimon when your city has a rating of 12-15, you might encounter Greymon outside his house. Greymon will approach you and ask you for a battle. If you win, he'll join the city and make a battle arena. If you lose, he wants that street sign. (What street sign?!) Defeat Greymon, and he will build his battle arena in the southeastern corner of File City. Recruitment Digimon! After Mount Infinity has been revealed, you will be attacked by an Airdramon that seems to be brainwashed. Airdramon hits your Digimon before the battle even starts, so be prepared with recovery items. Defeat Airdramon, and he will rest in Jijimon's house. After some time, Airdramon opens his own little business in Greymon's battle arena. Airdramon will tell you your fortune as well as your Digimon's. He does this for free, and if he tells you that you have bad luck, don't take it to heart. His fortunes are random and don't really mean anything. SECTION 10: MOUNT PANORAMA Mount Panorama is pretty much one giant circle. If it's early in the game, you will only be able to access the Gear Savanna from Mount Panorama. As the game progresses, the Drill Tunnel will open up and you will be able to travel straight from the tunnel to Gear Savanna. But to get to Gear Savanna, you will have to pass through the Mountain for now. There are three recruitable Digimon in Mount Panorama: Unimon, Vademon, and Mamemon. Recruitment Digimon! You can't miss Unimon. He's the big metal headed unicorn that is lying on the ground when you first pass through Mount Panorama. Poor Unimon's hurt his wing, and needs a sm. recovery from you. If you can spare one, or any other recovery item for that matter, Unimon will feel better--enough to join File City! Unimon joins the Item Shop built by Monochromon, or if Unimon is your first Item Shop Digimon, he will build it. Unimon offers portable potties, an essential item for any Digimon trainer. Note: Unimon will not be accessible in Mount Panorama until you recruit Centarumon. Recruitment Digimon! There have been rumors about a UFO being spotted near Mount Panorama. You can hear these rumors from Shellmon's bulletin board. If you go to inspect the Mount Panorama area northeast of Unimon's screen, you will see odd cuts in the ground. You will continue to see these circles appear in this area, until you finally see what is causing them. If you visit this area once in a while, there's a chance that you'll see Vademon in this area. When you talk to him, he'll join the city peacefully. WHEW! ^_^ Once you recruit Vademon, he appears once in a while in the File City Restaurant, cooking up several alien dishes. Recruitment Digimon! Mamemon can be found north of the screen with Vademon's circles, where Mud Frigimon frolic in the fields. Mamemon appears with a low frequency, but thankfully not as low as Piximon. Mamemon appears about once every twenty five or so times that you visit the screen. If you'd like to find him, run back and forth from screen to screen. Once you see Mamemon, he challenges you to a battle. Defeat him, and he will join the city. Mamemon works in the secret item shop, selling super stat disks. Mount Panorama's end is Gear Savanna's beginning. If you haven't opened the Drill Tunnel yet, it would be a good idea to start the Drimogemon on it now. It will provide you with a convenient shortcut from Native Forest to the entrance to Gear Savanna. SECTION 11: GEAR SAVANNA Like Mount Panorama, Gear Savanna is a giant circle. Here you will find odd enemy Digimon such as the pink-bellied Psychemon and the zebra-striped Shima Unimon, as well as a new training center. Gear Savanna's resident Digimon, Leomon, is the source of many Digimon World questions. Gear Savanna is also home to the Secret Item Shop, which you can find from the 1st to the 15th of every month. If you don't have the card machine in the Item Shop yet, it would be a good idea to visit the Secret Item shop, which is located one screen north of the Gear Savanna entrance, then west. The Gear Savanna Item Shop sells and buys cards mostly, but also has a side business of selling lost items. Yep, that's right. When you lose a battle and are sent back to Jijimon's house, many times you lose an item to the Digimon who beat you. Well, the Gear Savanna Item Shop can sell you back these items! If you lose something important, like Grey Lord's Mansion Key or Seadramon's Blue Flute, be sure to check with the Item Shop when you can! Also, if you plan on visiting Geko Swamp soon, be sure to stock up on cards for the master card trader, Shogun Gekomon. Recruitment Digimon! When you first enter Gear Savanna, head east and then north, and you will see a Patamon in trouble! You won't need to fight here though, because Leomon will take care of the bad guy for you. Leomon then leaves the scene, headed for the Gear Savanna training area. Talk to him, and he will tell you that he is looking for something, and that he can't go with you to the city until he finds it. You tell him that if you find it, you'll be sure to let him know. So what is he looking for? Leomon is looking for his ancestors' sacred tablet, which can be found in the Drill Tunnel. Remember the Drimogemon on the third level who is always digging? "Today we're digging. Tomorrow we're digging. It's so fun." ^_^ When File City's prosperity rating is above 45, this Drimogemon will finally be done digging! Visit him, and you will notice that he has found a cave once used by Leomon's ancestors. Guess what? The tablet that Leomon has been looking for is in this cave. Retrieve it, then go back to Leomon. When you give him the tablet, he will join the city. Leomon hangs out in Birdra Transport, but doesn't really serve a purpose in File City. Recruitment Digimon! Elecmon paces near a tree, north of Gear Savanna's main entrance. Talk to him, and he will shock you, taking off some of your Digimon's HP. Talk to him again, and he'll shock you once more. Talk to him one last time, and he'll shock you again--but this time Elecmon notes how brave you are in approaching him. Elecmon then joins the city as its electrical supplier, and will now reside in File City at night. He asks you if the light makes a difference to the city. Does it? ^_^ Recruitment Digimon! Patamon can be found east of Elecmon, bouncing around as usual. Patamon wants to battle you. Not once, not twice, but three times. After the third round, Patamon will finally acknowledge that he can't beat you, and you can tell him about joining the city. Patamon agrees, then joins the city. Patamon joins Monochromon and Unimon in the Item Shop, and if by now you have all three of these Item Shop Digimon, the card machine will appear in the Item Shop. Joy! ^_^ Recruitment Digimon! The last Item Shop Digimon is finally found! Biyomon sits south of Patamon, apparently doing nothing. Sounds like an easy recruitment, doesn't it? So what's the catch, you ask? When you talk to Biyomon, she runs from you. Continue to try talking to her, and she will run in a square-like pattern, always away from you. Trainer gives you a hint to solving this puzzle when he says that maybe you should wait there. He doesn't actually mean that you should wait there and not do anything with Biyomon. If you don't provoke Biyomon in any way, she won't move. What you need to do is find some way to provoke Biyomon while also remaining in one place to catch her when she runs. How do you do this? Well, there are two of you, aren't there? Turn around and press X to talk to your Digimon. This is pretty much the only time in the game where you can actually talk to your own Digimon, which is pretty cool. Choose to wait where you are, and your Digimon will then chase Biyomon towards you. When you finally have her cornered, you can speak with her. You won't have to fight her, and she will head toward the city peacefully. Biyomon is the last Digimon of Gear Savanna, so be prepared to move on after recruiting her! With Gear Savanna finished, you now have access to two areas: Trash Mountain and Geko Swamp. If you haven't visited Trash Mountain yet, then make it your priority to go there. Trash Mountain is where you will find your first fishing rod, as well as a GREAT training area for MP. As for Geko Swamp, there you will find a, well, interesting trading business going on. Geko Swamp is where you can get your second fishing rod, which is essential for catching Seadramon in Dragon Eye Lake. You probably have also seen the giant metal gate that blocks entry into Factorial Town. As of now, you can only get into Factorial Town by Whamon, and will have to wait until you solve Factorial Town's problems before the door opens. SECTION 12: TRASH MOUNTAIN Trash Mountain is home of the filth Digimon, Sukamon. The Sukamon are ruled by the Sukamon King, who resides in the very back of the Dust Kingdom. The Sukamon King is a rather rude fellow if you don't have anything to discuss with him, but he may end up to be a good friend of yours if Sukamon is a common partner Digimon for you. There is only one recruitable Digimon in Trash Mountain, and he is a rather useless one. But hey, it's still points, isn't it? ^_^ Recruitment Digimon! One of these Sukamon in Trash Mountain wants to join the city. The problem is that you have to talk to this Sukamon FIRST if you want him to join the city. I've done it a couple times, and if you talk to another Sukamon first, then the one that wants to go will not join the city. He says he wants to go, but I never really see him there. If you want Sukamon to join the city, talk to the last Sukamon before the Sukamon King. He's the one that stands near the giant pile of "trash." He tells you that he wants to join the city, and will show up there from time to time. Back in File City, Sukamon serves no real purpose. He sits in the bushes across from the toilet, and informs you that he thinks the city is okay, but that he doesn't like the toilet. ^_^ Maybe it's a little too clean for him around there. When you talk to the southernmost Sukamon, he will tell you that he saw something in the trash piles that may interest you. If you look southwest of where he is, you will see a stick-like item lying on the floor. Pick it up, and you will have your first fishing rod! Guess it's time to head back to Dragon Eye Lake, huh? Oh, one more note about the Dust Kingdom and the Sukamon King. If your Digimon just happens to digivolve into a Sukamon, bring him to the King and he will change him back for you. Unless you like having a smelly filth Digimon, that is. SECTION 13: DRAGON EYE LAKE Once you have a fishing rod, you will have full access to Dragon Eye Lake. Well, that is, if you have a good rod. There are two rods available in the game: the worn-out rod and the amazing rod. Can you guess which of the two is better? The amazing rod will get you out farther, but the worn-out rod will do fine if you are just trying for anchovies, snapper, or black trout. Section 12 will be about fishing with the worn-out rod, and the fish you can catch with it. If you are looking to catch bigger fish or Seadramon himself, you can find that in Section 19: Dragon Eye Lake II. The worn-out fishing rod that you obtained from Trash Mountain isn't too bad. It reaches far enough to get decent fish like the black trout, which raises all of your Digimon's stats slightly. There are two places to fish in Dragon Eye Lake: a northern shore and a southern shore. The northern shore can be found by heading northwest from the Native Forest toilet; the southern shore can be found by going one screen south of the Native Forest toilet, then west until you reach the shore. Here are the fish you can catch in each section with the worn-out rod.
