We managed to get our hands on the Original Brown and Original Gray set for the weekend. It isn’t localized, though, so the Digimon Web service isn’t available. The good news is Premium Bandai plans to bring it to Singapore, and have already done so with the first pre-order wave. Here’s the bad news: the Ver.20th has only been announced for Japan, is only available in Japanese, and was promptly sold out. Other tweaks include increasing evolution stages to six, the ability to raise a second Digimon, and exclusive eggs tied to the device’s color. They’ve stayed faithful to the original monster designs and base game mechanics but have also crammed in a larger roster, comprising the first five versions to total more than 100 available Digimon. To mark its 20th anniversary this year, the company released the Digital Monster Ver.20th ( official site), a reproduction of the original three-button model. While Pokémon eventually took the mainstream lead, Digimon has since grown into a vast, multi-media franchise with a strong fan community. While similar in style and execution, Bandai’s version stood out for its focus on duels - anyone can remember the first time they linked devices with a stranger. Bandai’s Digital Monster was first released in 1997 in response to Tamagotchi, the virtual pet that upset schools and workplaces worldwide.
Before the advent of smartphones, the proliferation of Snake via Nokia, or even Nintendo’s Game Boy Color, came a tiny portable device that enchanted an entire generation. 15 years later, in 2019, the Manga received a sequel titled 'Digimon Chronicle X', which followed the story of the Royal Knights and Seven Great Demon Lords fighting against each other in their X forms.Handheld gaming was a wholly different beast two decades ago. Kouta and Yuuji resist Yggdrasil and the Royal Knights, while Shinji sides with the computer and the thirteen Digimon.

The Ver.6 features the same tedious training method that was first introduced in the original Ver.1 v-pet. After that, three human boys, Kouta, Yuuji, and Shinji, find their way into the Digital World and meet their respective partner Digimon, Dorumon, Ryuudamon and Omnimon X. 6 Digimon is an unofficial version, as it reuses some Digimon (Kabuterimon,and Kuwagamon) that were used in the first 5 versions and uses the same 'fresh' lcd as the one featured in the version 5 v-pet. Yggdrasil sends in the thirteen Royal Knights to keep order in the Digital World. However, some Digimon adapt by obtaining a program called the X-Antibody, which strengthens them, changes their appearances, and immunizes them against the X Program. Yggdrasil then lets loose the Project Ark as well as the X Program to eliminate any Digimon it no longer wants.
This leads to the creation of the 'New Digital World', which consists of three layers known as Urd (past), Versandi (present), and Skuld (future). Digimon have multiplied so much that Yggdrasil is unable to handle the load and the Digital Hazard occurs. In this storyline, the Digital World is controlled by an intelligent computer named Yggdrasil.
