Another strange quirk of the game is that digimon all have level caps (which they reach rather soon), meaning you have to repeatedly digivolve, de-digivolve, and combine them in order to build a decent team (have in mind that combining them resets the digimon level to 1).

* NotCompletelyUseless: Tsukaimon's "Friendly Fire" attack, it can only damages allied Digimon. Sounds like a stupid technique, right? But when you know what this skill can actually do, it's not really useless. It can trigger an ally's counter attack immediately (e.g.: do it to [=MetalMamemon=] who is going to use "Energetic Bomb" attack -- an attack that only work on all enemies if the attack is a counter-attack rather than ordinary attack. So if Metal Mamemon is attacked by an ally's "Friendly Fire", then Metal Mamemon will immediately use "Energetic Bomb" on all enemies if the player choose it before). Other than that, "Friendly Fire" can also remove Confused status from a targeted ally.

''DigimonWorld2'', like its predecessor, was an {{RPG}} for the {{Playstation}}. However, while the first game was a {{Mon}}-raising sim with RPGElements (and ''DigimonWorld3'' and the DS games would be a more typical EasternRPG), ''Digimon World 2'' tried its hand at the {{Roguelike}} formula.
[[TheHero Our hero]] Akira has just gotten his Tamer Licence and the keys to his brand new Digi-Beetle. After joining one of the three teams that guard Digital City -- the Vaccine-using Gold Hawks, the Data-preferring Blue Falcons, or the Virus-loving Black Sword -- he gets his first digimon and sets out to start protecting his home, patrolling various domains, battling or befriending wild digimon, and participating in the [[InevitableTournament various tournaments]] in his free time. Of course, it doesn't take long for things to get a ''lot'' more complicated than that...
The Digi-Beetle serves as your lifeline in the dungeons; it has its own HP, EP, and various tools and weapons you can install to make exploring easier. DefeatMeansFriendship is also given an odd twist; digimon are shown wandering the map, and you can shoot gifts at them to drastically raise the chances of them joining you, then [[strike:kill]] beat them last.
Another strange quirk of the game is that digimon all have level caps (which they reach rather soon), meaning you have to repeatedly digivolve, de-digivolve, and combine them in order to build a decent team (have in mind that combining them resets the digimon level to 1).

This game contains examples of:
* ATasteOfPower: During the training mission, you use Zudokorn's digimon. All of which are at Ultimate level.
* AerithAndBob: All over the place. Bertran, Damien, and Joy are all normal if uncommon names, but then we get to Zudokorn, Piyette, and Akira himself.
* AnimalThemeNaming: Not only are many of the various parts you can buy for your Digi-Beetle named after different types of animals, they're sorted into different catagories, such as sea creatures for the Batteries, birds for toolboxes, mythological creatures for DB-Engines and insects for RAM.
* {{Blood Knight}}s: Interestingly, they were named this before this trope even existed.
* BossRoom: Lampshaded in the very first mission in the game.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: One of the main tricks up the Blood Knights' sleeve: [[spoiler:a device that drives anyone without a neutralizer insane with confusion]].
** [[spoiler: Crimson, transforming into Neo Crimson and going back to normal once he is defeated. It seems that Overlord Gaia is the unknown force that took over his mind.]]
* CoolCar[=/=]WeaponizedCar: The Digi-Beetle
* ChekhovsGunman: GAIA the little robot that Kim repairs.
* TheComputerIsACheatingBastard: Anytime the computer takes control of a Digimon in battle it will ignore any checks that would stop the player from doing the same action. (This includes the MP requirement and a certain status effect.)
* CrowningMusicofAwesome: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c300Rf6URqw&fmt=18 First Boss Battle/Rival Battles]]
* CrutchCharacter: During an early point in the game you're given a chance to recruit a Metalgreymon. While it has decent stats at the time it's available,(except for speed) later on you can get much stronger Digimon at lower levels.
** There is also the Digimon Center that lets you trade Digimon. Most of the early traded Digimon are Crutch Characters.
* CurbStompBattle: Except a few of the early bosses any fight where there's only a single enemy will likely be this.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: Although bribery helps. A '''lot'''.
* DidIJustSayThatOutLoud: Immediately after the Generator Parts are stolen, Akira overhears the thief griping about who sent her to get the Parts. Akira's response indicates he only heard her mention 'Generator Parts', and [[IdiotHero wonders if she knows something]]. The Blood Knights are also prone to this.

* GuideDangIt
* HelloInsertNameHere: You can name Akira, all of your partner digimon, and your Digi-Beetle.
* InevitableTournament: At several points, you can't continue the main storyline unless you earn a certain rank in the local tournaments.
* ImprobableAge: You're a teenager or possibly preteen. You get to have monsters and drive a tank with barely any supervision. And apparently that's common place in this universe.
* JustifiedTutorial: Framed as a training mission, with your mentor Zudokorn teaching you the basics of dungeon driving.
* LevelGrinding: Your Digimon will eventually hit their maximum levels. When they do, you can combine two Digimon to create a new one and raise it from level 1 all over again. This requires you to constantly recruit more Digimon, only to combine them once they max out their levels. This is also how you get one Digimon to have more than 2 or 3 attacks in its moveset, and with careful planning (and a [[GuideDangIt guide]]) players can pretty much get any Digimon in the game they want.
** Let's try to be more expository here: Your digimons have a Max Evolution Level attribute (Max EL). Every time a digimon's level reaches the Max EL, it will hit a level cap. In order to processed, a monster Max EL can be raised by DNA-combining him with other monsters. But there are 3 downside to this: Your new monster will be back at lvl 1, meaning you will lose 2 monsters in order to gain one monster with higher Max El. The second one is that the Max EL raises very little, it becames [Strongest Monster Level + (Weakest Monster Level/5)]. The third one is that both monsters should be at the level cap, or else you'll lose Max El you've gained.
* LuckBasedMission: if the random dungeon generator decides to spit out unavoidable traps, you're quite possibly boned. Especially the Return bugs that instantly send your Digimon back to the city. And you can't destroy them unless you have the correct weapon and the correct ammo for the weapon, either of which ''might not even be available by that point''.
** What makes this even worse is this doesn't happen until later in the game after 30+ hours of level grinding. Earlier in the game it's possible to buy upgrades and see all traps level B and lower but after a certain point A level traps will start appear and while most are visible some aren't.
* MeaningfulName: The dungeons are all named after computer-related terms; for example, the first dungeon in the game is called the Boot Domain.
* MysticalWaif: Esteena.
* NamedByDemocracy: Chaos Lord, the prince of evil, because everyone had a low opinion of him according to Angemon.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Late in the storyline, [[spoiler:your leader sends TheCalvary after you. Unfortunately, none of them have any way to counter the Blood Knights' confusion traps...]]
** Kim encounters a robot named GAIA, who you help fix. [[spoiler: It turns out this is the final boss of the game, and you just helped fix it up.]]
* NoExportForYou: Never released in the PAL regions, which led to ''Digimon World 3'' getting renamed ''Digimon World 2003'' when ''it'' got to make the trip.
* OneWingedAngel: [[spoiler:[=NeoCrimson=]]]
* PaletteSwap: Many of the infamous palette swapped Digimon from World 1 return, although unlike the original they can be obtained by the player in this game.
** A few more (mostly Rookies) were DummiedOut.
* PoorCommunicationKills: Long after your Guard Team leader assigns you to locate Ben Oldman, you learn where he is from [[spoiler:your teammate Joy Joy]].
* PreExistingEncounters: Technically, they're of the avoidable kind. Many are avoidable on paper only, since they move in response to the player's movements, and many rooms aren't large enough to exit them without being reached.
** Part of this also has to do with the fact that some groups of enemy Digimon react differently. Most of them will move one square towards you for each move you make, but a few will move twice. Some of them will even move *away* from you for every 2 squares you move.
* ShipperOnDeck: Skull asks in the post-game whether you like Kim or Esteena more.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: When Akira catches up to Kim to ask her about the Generator Parts, she insists she didn't steal them or anything.
* TacticalRockPaperScissors: Vaccine has an advantage over Virus, Data has an advantage over Vaccine, and Virus has an advantage over Data. This handicap translates in three fronts: battling, team equipment, and DNA predominance. The first one means that the Digimon with the advantage will hit for more and take hits for less damage; the second one means that, depending on which team the player chooses, they will be able to buy items that help dealing with the Digimon they already have an advantage over; the last one means that, when fusing two Digimon, the offspring will be the same attribute as the advantageous parent.
* TheRival: Bertran to Akira.
** UnknownRival: Akira does not know who Bertran is at first, and takes a while to grasp the concept.
* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: Used to expose [[spoiler: the disguised Damien]].
* ThatOneSideQuest: Trading [[CanisMajor Garurumon]] for [[OurAngelsAreDifferent Magna Angemon]] requires either using rare (at that point in the games) and expensive gifts in order to recruit a wild one.
