Newer Digi-Destined
A group of younger Digi-Destined T.K. and Kari joined back in 02, they consist of Davis, Yolei, Ken, and Cody.

Meramon
Andromon
- Voiced by: Bren MacDonald
A robot Digimon that serves as a tour guide for a factory.

Villains (Tri)
Alphamon
- Voiced by: Logan Laidlaw
A mysterious Royal Knight Digimon that tries to obtain Meicoomon.
- The Juggernaut: It takes WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon to even stagger him, and nothing short of Omegamon, Jesmon, or Raguelmon will last very long in a fight against him.
- Knight Templar: His main motivation is upholding the law. The problem is, humans and most Digimon don't know anything about the law, except that it apparently warrants Alphamon showing up and wrecking everyone's shit, which they don't take kindly to.
- Smug Super: Attacks from lower level Digimon just irritate or amuse him.
"Ken Ichijouji"
- Voiced by: Logan Laidlaw ("Digimon Emperor"), Mackenzie Murdock (Gennai)
Previously a member of the newer Digi-Destined, he seems to have gone back to his previous role as the evil Digimon Emperor. Or has he...?

Devimon
I'm not Satan, Green man, I'm "Satan-like". The "like" is important, I think...
- Voiced by: Jesse Inocalla
A Satan-like Digimon who uses the power of darkness and his Black Gears to turn other Digimon of File Island into his minions.
- Big Bad: Of the first Arc.
- Creepily Long Arms:
- Obliviously Evil: He claims that his methods are done solely to protect File Island from outside threats. However he doesn't seem to understand the fact that using his black gears to forcibly control other Digimon against their will and trying to kill seven children is wrong. Even when it's pointed out to him.
- Obviously Evil: Although he'll tell you otherwise.
- Satan
- Underestimating Badassery: Downplayed. He breaks up File Island with the intent of going across the Digital World and bringing back extremely powerful Digimon to form an army to fend off the Dark Masters... ignoring the fact that the Dark Masters are a group of Mega-level Digimon and the highest level achievable by most Digimon is Ultimate.
