A Play-by-Post (and Fan Webcomic) of the two biggest Cash-Cow Franchise series of Mons crossing over in an epic big adventure!

Based on the 27th episode of Digimon Adventure, "It's All In The Cards", Tai had to choose a card to open the gateway to earth. But what if he chose the wrong card? The answer? He opens the entrance to the world of Pokémon, bringing in Digimon along with them!

Set in Pokémon: The Original Series right after the first Kanto saga, it begins with the Orange Islands adventure takes an alternate path, as Back from the Dead Datamon seeks out the GS Ball to unlock a very powerful secret between the two Mons. The power of sealed evolution, the ability for Pokémon to evolve higher than their highest stage, even higher than Mega Evolution! Helping out the DigiDestined to try and restore balance are Ash, Gary, fellow Pallet Town trainer Paula and a ranch girl from the Viridian Forest, Yellow (each based on the four original protagonist from the Pokémon Adventures manga). Especially as the DigiDestined's enemy invades Pokéarth, from Myotismon who continues his hunt for Kari and the Dark Masters, who had warped the Digital World with Johto and Orre, and plans to do the same with the rest of the world and Earth!

Alongside this story are adaptations of Digimon World and Pokémon Colosseum. A young v-pet player from earth name Hiro is brought to the Digital World from Jijimon who journeys around the digital world befriending other DigiDestined and digimon on his quest to restore digimon back to normal. However, his adventure got a bit more crazy when the digital world becomes Spiral Mountain with Pokéarth, while a shady organization plots to control all the mons with the power of shadow!

In the webcomic adaptation, there are two versions. One is done by Silver-Ninja (Alien-Child) and the other by AnTyep, both with their own art style and twist to their adaptation.

This RP contain examples of:

  • Calling Your Attacks: What do you expect from Digimon? Pokémon could too when translated.
  • Canon Foreigner: In the Pokémon side, it's based on the anime but certain events and characters from the mangas or games are allowed in.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: Multiple times to future generations. On the Pokémon side, there's multiple Pokémon from regions outside of Kanto/Johto such Ash's Eevee evolving into Sylveon, which is in reference to Pokémon X and Y. Meanwhile on the Digimon side, there's cameos like Sampson from Digimon Data Squad and Bagra from Digimon Fusion.
  • Evolutionary Levels: Being Pokémon and Digimon, this Trope is played straight; both Mons are known to evolve (or Digivolve to Digimon fans in the west).
  • For Want Of A Nail: Picking the Agumon card might have sent the DigiDestined to Pokéarth with the events of Digimon Adventure still existing, just now with another world involved.
  • Olympus Mons: The DigiDestined learned the hard way just how powerful Legendary Pokémon are. Originally only the Legendary Pokémon (and Mega Evolved) could have stood up to Ultimate and above leveled Digimon, but once the Sealed Evolution had been unlocked, it became possible for Pokémon to reach such a status.
  • Shout-Out: How about a group Penguinmon who invoke the The Penguins of Madagascar? Or maybe Machinedramon's Mekanorimon who talk like the Kraang from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012)? And that's only the beginning!
  • Story Arc: Most of the threads can be bundled up into arcs, especially ones based on the anime.
    • Orange Islands Arc: A variation of the Filler Arc in the Pokémon anime, in which Digimon are invading and the GS Ball doesn't become an Aborted Arc. Through this arc, the Dark Masters send out their elite to ensure the DigiDestined never return to their world. This brings in Mermaimon, a pirate who leads her forces to hunt for Manaphy in order to take control of all Water Pokémon, and the Datamon now Back from the Dead, who can be argued to be this arc's Big Bad as he hunts down the GS Ball.
    • 8th Child Arc: Finishing up the Myotismon arc from the anime as Kari with the help of Gatomon, Ryo and Wizardmon escape Earth and enter the world of Pokémon, with the evil vampire Digimon and his minions hot on their trail. Taking over Saffron City and a chunk of Kanto, the DigiDestined and their new Pokémon trainer allies break through Myotismon's fog to save their world.
    • Dark Masters Arc: With Myotismon's defeat, the Dark Masters invade Pokéarth to merge the Digital World with Orre and Johto, with their influence slowly spreading to the rest of the world and eventually Earth.
  • Unwilling Roboticization: Datamon had been turning Pokémon into robots. His technology was reused by Machinedramon; in a Shout-Out to Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics), only Pokémon were turned into robots while humans became metal statues.
