History VideoGame / Nexomon

* PrestigeClass: To access the post-game content, the player is asked to "Rebirth" their Nexomon team, which [[RestartAtLevelOne sets them back to their first form at Level 5]] but vastly improves all of their stat growths. To make progress easier, the player keeps all their items (including key items like an Experience Booster), and any Nexomon caught in the post-game areas will start Rebirthed. [[spoiler:Near its conclusion, the Underworld is no longer restricted to Rebirthed Nexomon, but the option to "Rebirth" for better growths is still available.]]

* StealthSequel: The connections to ''Micromon'' are mostly stylistic, until you find a lab in the fire-themed Ignaius territory with terminals detailing the creation of a "Pixelmon" world as a potential escape from Omnicron, and TheReveal after beating Overseer Ira that [[spoiler:Professor Malk, from the world of ''Micromon'', is reporting directly to the Nexolord and his Champions]].

''Nexomon'' is a MonsSeries game developed by VEWO Interactive, and the successor to ''[[VideoGame/{{Micromon}} Micromon: The Legend of Vaithe]]'', a 2014 {{Mon}} game released for iOS. ''Nexomon'' was originally released in 2017 for iOS, but a UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} version was made available as an Early Access title in November 29th, 2019, with the full release coming in July 2020. A sequel, ''VideoGame/NexomonExtinction'', was released in late August 2020.

* PortalNetwork: After befriending Overseer Kane, he uses his spiritual power to reawaken Warp Totems across the world, allowing the player to travel to locations they've been to before.

* HeadsIWinTailsYouLose: At some points of the story, you fight against the Tyrants, and after ''winning'' the battle, the cutscene shows the Tyrant overpowering your character anyways.

* HopelessBossBattle: The initial battle against [[spoiler: Ziegler]] is unwinnable. If somehow won, the story will progress normally anyways.

* FairyCompanion: Atlas, a small robot invented by the protagonist's friend, serves as your constant guide, pointing out the path forward and recommending taking time to recover before and after major events.

* FunnyAnimal: Ron, the Nexo-Mart {{Shopkeeper}}, is a well-dressed orange cat that talks and walks like a human. In the post-game, you also meet his daughter, Molly, [[spoiler:though she's eventually revealed to just be a part of the protagonist's Nightmare]].

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Both of the default main character models have blue hair. Most [=NPCs=] also have a variety of hair colors, with Remus and Merida's also being blue.
* YouWillBeSpared: Towards the climax of the post-game story, the player (now the newest Nexolord) is stopped by a large group of the now-former Nexolord [[spoiler:Metta]]'s masked minions, [[BaitAndSwitch seemingly setting up a battle...but instead]], they all beg to be forgiven, claiming that they only followed [[spoiler:Omnicron]] because of this trope, and eagerly hand over a Mysterious Key that they had previously been tasked with guarding.

* AIIsACrapshoot: Just before the final battle, [[spoiler:Professor Malk from ''Micromon'' reveals that he was the NPC of Project Pixekai, a digital world created by people to escape Omnicron. Enraged at his own existence after discovering his true nature, he destroyed Pixekai and everyone on it, and ThePowerOfHate allowed him to manifest in the real world. He then met Metta and taught him how to revive his father, so that Omnicron could destroy humanity.]]

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:In the game's true ending, Omnicron has been destroyed once and for all, stopping his crusade against the human race and freeing the Nexomon from his influence, giving them true freedom to coexist with humans. Unfortunately, he's devastated Parum and he and his children unleashed immense suffering across the world during the story. Also, according to Omnicron himself, the Nexomon would be doomed to go extinct as his soul was the source of their lifeforce.]][[spoiler: ''Extinction'' fortunately removes much of the bitterness, as Omnicron was wrong and the Nexomon continue to thrive and survive centuries after his death.]]

* ChessmasterSidekick: Malk is this to the Nexolord. [[spoiler: After escaping Micromon, Malk sought out Metta and gave him the means to resurrect Omnicron's children as well as Omnicron himself. All as part of his revenge for being created in the first place.]]
* DoomedHometown: On the way to the first town, Parum, the player comes across a few houses that have been set on fire by the current Nexolord's minions. [[spoiler:In the post-game, the whole town and the preceding routes, including the player's house, has been wrecked by Omnicron after escaping from the Underworld.]]

* GodInHumanForm: [[spoiler:The current Nexolord and his Champions, though seemingly human, are the offspring of children of Omnicron the Primordial Tyrant in disguise. This is also the case for Deena, who is actually Nara, the Primordial Tyrant of Life.]]

* KeystoneArmy: [[spoiler:Fortunately Averted. Omnicron believed his soul was key to the Nexomons' survival and that they would be doomed to extinction if it was destroyed. As ''VideoGame/NexomonExtinction'' showed, he was ''completely'' wrong.]]
* KillAllHumans: [[spoiler:Omnicron created the Nexomon as an army to destroy humanity and claim their world for himself.]]

* SequelHook: After completing the story portion of the PostEndGameContent, there's a brief ToBeContinued and mention of how the tradition of Nexolords will eventually become '''[[VideoGame/NexomonExtinction extinct]]''' before Atlas interjects and the game returns to the present.

* AIIsACrapshoot: Just before the final battle, [[spoiler:Professor Malk from ''Micromon'' reveals that he was the NPC of a digital world created by people to escape Omnicron. Enraged at his own existence, he instigated the destruction of his own world to spite humanity, and ThePowerOfHate allowed him to manifest in the real world.]]

* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Omnicron's soul is destroyed in the post-game, ensuing that he can't be revived. This is confirmed in ''Extinction'' by Atlas.]]

* LotusEaterMachine: The post-game involves travelling into various "Nightmares" in order to [[spoiler:free the souls of the Tyrants, which unlocks where Omnicron's soul is being kept, and erase it instead of letting Omnicron recover and eventually resurrect itself]]. However, towards the end, [[spoiler:it turns out the ''protagonist'' has been in one of these since the post-game started; between the original ending and when you continue, there was an off-screen attempt to defeat Omnicron's soul, which failed, let Omnicron and the Tyrants escape, and led to Ziegler imprisoning the player as punishment]].

* GameplayAndStorySegration: Many times the player is assisted by Overseers and other companions. It is implied they fight some battles with them, but they are never actually seen fighting during battles. Only the player's fights are shown.
