| How does this.... |
Side note 1- With baby Digimon the main idea is to train the two base stats HP and MP. In theory this allows you to be able to focus on the other stats such as defence and attack when your Digimon grows up as you've mainly covered the HP in it's youth.
Of course we overlooked that T.Pain is but a little baby so after two rounds of HP training and several adorable noises he's tuckered out and needs a nap, bless him. So after our mid-morning nap we awake to a dusky afternoon where we dive straight back into training. This non-stop train of training (Does that count as a Pun?) is rewarded with a Digivoloution into the kind of cute kind of scary Tokomon. I mean his angry glare could curdle dairy! From here we do a short round of training, working on defence before hitting the hay feeling accomplished!

| Turn to this... |
Side note 2- The time has not come to push the button, but rather to branch out our training regime. The reason for this is now what stats you train effect the Digivoloution of your Digital partner. So for example if were to change my focus from defence to Attack it's possible I could get a different Rookie Digimon.

Day 2/8 - The cycle of training continues, when T.Pain isn't training he's pooping or eating or sleeping. After T.Pain's most recent bout of sleeping we take a small break from training to pick up our Daily food supplies from Palamon (the slightly less dreaded if you want her full title) before going to the town square to see how things are shaping up. To my surprise Betamon and Colemon have set up a small street stall selling items like HP floppies and MP floppies (Health and Mana items respectfully). After our detour we go back to our strict training regime and once again are rewarded with a Digivoloution. This time our rookie is Patamon. T.Pains transformation must have taken more out of him than I thought as immediately afterwards he needs to sleep.

Day 3/9 - With the early morning rays shining on T.Pain and I we decide on some last minute training before whirling outside of town to take my new orange T.Pain on a test run! So a few sparse minutes later we're out in the Native forest battling a Dokunemon (Well, watching a couple of monsters run around a field is more true to the scene) to which T.Pain copes well! We beat our opponent but not without a few bumps and bruises. Our remedy to this is to extensively train the brains of T.Pain so that he can learn the attack command. (Great Doctor I am eh? ) So with a smarter T.Pain in tow who now listens to my attack commands we decide to not actually utilise this new ability by going to Drill Tunnel and attempting to move the remaining dirt. Two dirt trips later T.Pain needs the toilet, and so we are forced to retreat back home to the toilet and end the day there.
Side note 3- Brains is the means of teaching your Digimon more advanced commands, such as 'attack' or 'keep distance'. This makes battle a slightly more controllable affair.

Day 4/10 - The morning -like many - is filled with training, so to break this routine T.Pain and I go off to Tropical Forest to explore the area more. Exploring proves difficult though as some powerful Fly things and the dreaded creatures who took out Jeffer (Moment of Silence please) lurking about. Our exploring proves fruitful though, as we stumble upon an Invisible Bridge leading over to the Great Canyon top area. With some more fumbling and stumbling we enter Monochrome Shop where the owner, the rather unsurprising Monochromon, ropes us into selling some stuff for him. Several Customers later we sell what we find a quite impressive sum of 2680 DigiDollars, Monochromon is unconvinced and pays us 1500 whilst asking for us to do better next time, the cheek. Upon Leaving the shop T.Pain - who did nothing might I add - is tuckered out, but before we sleep we head on home as Digivoloution into champion form is looming right around the corner.

Day 5/11 - This day ends as it begun, with training upon training upon training. All in the hope that T.Pain might get a little stronger. Of course he doesn't and so we go to sleep feeling more powerful, yet a bit unhappy with the thought of having to repeat the same again. So we decide to do something more useful tomorrow! Like.. erm... Shift Dirt?
 |
| He looks more derpy that fearsome |
Day 6/12 - Setting off in the early morning we take up our previously brilliant idea to shift more dirt!! And as if for proof of my now scattered thought process we manage to anger a group of three Goburimon and decide that instead of running away with our tail in-between our legs immediately we stay and fight to see if T.Pain really can bring the Pain! ... He can't, of course, but that fight seems to trigger the Digivoloution from Patamon into a more fearsome Tyranamon! And it's here our more Powerful T.Pain needs to rest. Awakening soon after we go off presuming to shift some dirt, but somehow that job was already finished and a new tunnel was revealed. Inside T.Pain the mighty lives up to his name and shifts a giant boulder opening up a chamber with a small path running parallel to a river of lava. Following the path leads us to the insane looking Meramon whom immediately attacks us (Nice locals eh?) After a heated (Ha) battle we loose our first life to him. We end the day with a beaten T.Pain who vows to train and get stronger so that tomorrow we can show Meramon who's boss!!

Day 7/13 - For the umpteenth time we train, train, train until T.Pain is begging for a rest. Granting him that we actually prepare for a fight, this time to take on Meramon and show him we mean business... business this time around means a quick defeat which knocks us down to our final heart. After a quick bout of training we go on an epic quest for adventure, traversing a new path that was untill now littered with boulders. We find ourselves out in Gear Savannah where we prove once and for all that neither me nor T.Pain were gifted in the brains department. I manage to recruit an Elecmon by being stupid enough to run into his electricity not once, not twice but thrice, and T.Pain struggles to fathom the idea of running away from me to catch a bird, told you we were stupid! From there we find ourselves scaling Trash Mountain, which coincidentally is the home to the, wait for it, *cue drum roll* poop shaped Digimon Sukamon. Everything in this area seems to focus on human excrement in some way, I mean there's a giant king sized one and some bizarre training that asks your Digimon to hide in a giant metal one... you just can't make this stuff up. From there our situation just goes from bad to worse, on low health and with no food T.Pain and I find ourselves stuck on the summit of Trash Mountain surrounded by Sukamon facing an uncomfortable night's sleep, all in all today could have gone better.

| Sweet Jesus that's terrifying |
Day 8/14 - Leaving the hell-hole that was Trash Mountain we find ourselves in a very hectic morning. Despite our best efforts at retracing my steps we find ourselves running around in loops, always ending up at Trash mountain, each attempted journey home rewards us with something each time. Our first attempt includes a meeting with the cat's pyjamas Leomon (He's a lion and I like bad puns!), our second attempt nets us that Pesky Biyomon whom we failed to catch yesterday, rather worryingly she begs to work for us, I didn't realise we were so threatening. Our third attempt home is a success and to my surprise the town centre is now a bustling hive of activity! Elecmon has installed some shiny new lights whilst Betamon is now lounging inside a new fountain as his street stall has been transformed into a fully fledged shop! With a new feeling of determination to provide for this town I throw T.Pain into an endless loop of training with the goal to take down our biggest rival yet: Meramon. We gear up and sleep, prepared for what could well be our final day.

Day 9/15 - Our feeling of determination stays with us as we square up with Meramon once more, this time determined to win. YATTA! (We did it to those who don't know Japanese) Meramon is down and out, causing the heat and lava in the volcano to vanish, leading to treasure troves of stat boosting chips. Feeling accomplished we set off home only to discover two things; Meramon makes an excellent cook, providing curies from his restaurant and there is a special Digimon to be recruited somewhere in Tropical Forest using our newly acquired rain plant. Heading out there we recruit Vegimon, who as you might expect further develops our Meat farm, but it seems the recruiting train has no breaks, as it pulls up in Armada forest where we overcome the mysterious mans challenge, resulting in our new town Doctor: Centarumon! Before we sleep we think; Our predicted last day has turned out to be quite an eventful one.
Day 10/16 - With such a busy day yesterday we plan for a quiet day of exploring, going up into the Grand canyon and seeing what lies beyond Monochromon's shop. There we are ambushed by the feared Bandit leader Ogremon and his cronies! Our quiet day has quickly become a heated battle for our lives, one which we reign victorious by the skin of our teeth! On our way home as a means of rest we try and shift more of the aforementioned Monochromons stock, gaining us 1500 moneys in our wallet! We head home with a heavy wallet and another battle under our belt, it seems T.Pain is truly living up to be mighty indeed!

Day 11/17 - Curiosity killed the cat they say, in my case it almost killed the dinosaur. In a strange desire to go speak to the almighty town chief Jijimon (his name translates to old man monster) whom simply commends us for our progress it's here where curiosity comes to bite us in the behind with a rival dinosaur challenging us for a.... street sign? Once more victory is not easily gained and we scrape by, his reward? An arena for us to test our strength in! I commend T.Pain to a lovely meal from Meramon before bed.
Day 12/18 - We decide that we deserve a quiet day of exploration, one which Ogremon stole from us two days ago. Our adventure takes us past Trash Mountain and into Geko swamp, which in turn leads to the Misty Trees, which is surprisingly.. well.. misty. Unsurprisingly I get lost, which results in the recruiting of a Gabumon and the accidental stumbling upon Grand Canyon, where we decide to lay our heads for the night!

| I see where it got it's name |
Day 13/19 - The main goal of today is to hightail it back to the safety of town, which unlike most of our plans goes relatively smoothly, providing us with plenty time of resting an recuperating for our planned excursion into more of the unknown tomorrow! Whilst in town we discover the new treasure hunters Drimogemon and Gabumon whom charge extortionate prices for their services. Deciding to boycott them we go to sleep
The final Day - Our excursion is cut short as T.Pain the mighty dies suddenly! In his last days alive T.Pain proved his might by vanquishing foe after foe and providing well for our town! He shall always live on in our hearts!
This was something I found floating about in my drafts from a while back and thought to polish it up and release it, this will however be the final work on Digimon World as the gameplay gets a bit stale after a while, so I hope you enjoyed this!
Ross!!
