Wanya

Wanya is the Partner Digimon of Shinonome Reiji in Digimon Paradox. He's a Digimon weapon from 300 years in the future. 
While he calls himself Elecmon after evolving, Reiji still refers to him exclusively as Wanya, the nickname he gave him due to being unable to say anything else as Wanyamon.

=Profile=
As Wanyamon, Wanya was aggressive and unwilling to bond with anyone, even Shinonome Reiji who took care of him, and he was unable to speak anything other than "wanya", which made Reiji name him that. After realizing how far Reiji was willing to go to protect him, he evolved into Elecmon, and became highly friendly to both Reiji and Eve, despite the latter wanting to kill him, as well as very curious about the Real World and all in it. Nonetheless, Wanya still has a short temper and can go into a berserk rage if Reiji is hurt, even causing an irregular evolution, though Reiji can calm him down.

In ""The Beginning of the End"", Shinonome Reiji found a wounded and unconscious Wanya, then a Wanyamon, inside a trash can in an alley and carried him to his house hidden under his shirt. In his room, Reiji left Wanyamon on the floor as he wondered if he was really a cat, considering it had the face of a cat but nothing else. Wanyamon then woke up, looked all around, then screamed at Reiji as he offered to take care of his wounds, clearly angry. Reiji interpreted it as Wanyamon being hungry so he gave him tuna sashimi, but Wanyamon angrily smashed the plate with his tail, the pieces of said plate Reiji a scratch on his cheek. Reiji was seemingly angry himself and stretched his arm towards Wanyamon, who was now scared, but instead grabbed a piece of tuna and ate it to prove him it was edible. He then told Wanyamon to eat while trying to calm him down, which worked as Wanyamon finally lowered his guard and ate the tuna. Reiji thought he had managed to befriend him, but Wanyamon merely pulled away from him after eating, with Reiji's shouting at him alerting his sister that there was another living being with her brother. However, she thought it was just a cat. 
Later on, with Reiji in bed and Wanya in a box, Reiji told him he was glad he could rescue him. Reiji named Wanyamon "Wanya", based on the noises he made. Wanya refused to open up to him even after several days went by. Reiji decided to leave for the convenience store and asked Wanya to stay quiet and keep an eye on their home while he was gone, but Wanya refused to even look at him, which angered Reiji as he was leaving because Wanya's stomach rumbled even after he was fed. Regardless, he still left while asking Wanya to hide in the closet if anyone came. However, Wanya ignored that order and instead turned himself into data while Reiji wasn't looking and went into his phone. He was later ejected from that phone as a mysterious woman took it, which surprised Reiji. The woman was similarly confused at Reiji not knowing this, as it'd mean the Digimon, as she called it, went with him out of its own free will, an impossibility. Reiji didn't know what a Digimon was but also thought that unlikely because Wanyamon treated him poorly. The woman explained that the Digimon, Wanyamon, was a cyber weapon mistakenly sent to that era, and her mission was to prevent an annihilation paradox that would destroy humanity caused by a Digimon sent to the past, which was predicted by a future AI. The woman then called her Partner Digimon, Kuwagamon, into the room and had him attack Wanyamon as she refused to explain herself, as Reiji would forget everything after she winded back time. However, Reiji protected Wanya and intercepted Kuwagamon's attack with his bat, which shocked the woman as she tried to explain that Digimon were just weapons. Reiji said that the future must be a crappy place to live, so much he couldn't even understand it, and refused to let her kill Wanya. The woman tried to rewind time again to erase Wanya from an earlier point in time, while considering Reiji's reasoning absurd, but a draconic hand, Devidramon, came out of Reiji's computer and seemingly broke her device before she could. Devidramon took Wanya and went back to Reiji's computer. 
Inside cyberspace, Reiji assaulted Devidramon with his bat and rescued Wanya. However, this only led to him getting caught by Devidramon then found Reiji grabbed by Devidramon before being found by the woman and Kuwagamon, the former of which ordered him to abandon Wanya and save himself but Reiji refused. She shouted at him that he was a human from the past with no relation to the future and didn't understand why he went so far to protect a Digimon, which were merely data, weapons. As he bled from his mouth, Reiji rejected her words, screaming that Wanya was a living being who got scared, hurt and hungry, but still did his best to survive, so he'd save Wanya, while he remembered Taro who he couldn't save. Wanya, who was touched by Reiji protecting him, decided to save Reiji to pay him back for saving him before, and evolved into Elecmon. He then attacked Devidramon. Reiji was happy about it, as he realized it meant Wanya was quite a punk just like him, then joined the fight alongside Wanya to prove everyone that Wanya was not a weapon but a living being.
After their clash, the group was violently ejected from Reiji's computer back into his room. Despite being in pain, Reiji reached out to Wanya to see if he was okay. The woman tried to stop him, as Digimon were dangerous, but Wanya merely leaped into Reiji's chest. The woman thought both them fighting together and them understanding each other was unthinkable and thought Reiji may be something. After the woman introduced herself as Eve, she asked Reiji to let her stay in his room, which got him flustered, but Wanya thought it should be fine because Reiji was really nice. This surprised Reiji as Wanya could now speak. Wanya refused that name, saying he was Elecmon.
At the beginning of ""Beyond the Rain"", Reiji and Wanya slept. After questioning Eve about her being in school, Reiji asked her what happened to Wanya. Eve replied she had told him to stay in his PC, which Wanya found boring. After Eve asked Reiji about how the school uniform looked on her, Wanya, who climbed on Reiji's shoulder, loved it, which Eve appreciated but Reiji was more concerned about how he even got there. From Eve's time machine, Kuwagamon explained he most likely went through the network to Reiji's smartphone, which Reiji likened to a portable pal. Kuwagamon and Eve found this dangerous, as it meant Wanya could take action ignoring orders.
Later on, Wanya noticed the food in the shrine, such as cotton candy, flavoured apples and ramune. Wanya thought it all smelled good though Reiji didn't want him speaking in public. Eve then tried to catch goldfish and failed to, but the ringleader gave her one anyways because she was a cute girl. Getting called cute made Eve smile which got Reiji flustered. Wanya and Eve wondered if they should eat the fish but the ringmaster and Reiji told them not to. Wanya and Eve didn't understand why you'd catch a fish you couldn't eat, so Reiji got them taiyaki. After Eve explained her situation, Reiji recapped that she intended to get her time machine back and send Devidramon back to the future. Eve explained that'd fix the paradox and let her return to the future too. Reiji thought that sounded easy as it meant they could save the future and not kill Wanya, who was also happy Eve could go back to her time and took the chance to eat Reiji's taiyaki because he was still hungry, something Reiji didn't appreciate. Eve thought about how she lied to them: Devidramon would be erased and that wouldn't be the end of it. Wanya then asked her if she would eat her taiyaki, Eve gave it to him and he remarked how nice she was and promised to help her too. This confirmed to Eve that the "weapon" had a will of his own. Kuwagamon told her he was ready at any time but Eve stopped him because she wanted to wait and see just a bit longer. She knew her duty, to correct the paradox to prevent the extinction of humanity, but wondered if Wanya really was the source of the paradox.
A montage of their time together was then shown, and how Eve seemingly fit just right in the present. Walking together, Reiji explained to Wanya that he originally helped Eve to protect him, but now truly wanted to help her after he realized she was all alone in their era. Wanya encouraged him to continue helping her so they'd get her home as he liked her too. However, they couldn't find any clues and Eve stayed more and more time silently staring out of Reiji's window. On a rainy day, Reiji and Wanya complained about how they had several days of rain already, and Eve pointed out it reminded her of the future where it never stopped raining. There were no seasons and they could not see the Sun or the blue sky so people didn't look up at the sky anymore, which to Wanya sounded awful.

After Reiji decided to have Eve see the end of the rainy season, the four jumped into cyberspace, with Reiji carrying his bat. Reiji's plan was to go to Kyoto, where the rainy season was already over. Eve pointed out using the network in that era was dangerous as they were exposed and Devidramon could attack them. Reiji thought this was only another plus as it'd lure him out. Torii gates spawned on their way which meant they had to be close to Kyoto. However, Eve had to point out Reiji was correct, as a Digimon appeared in their way, though she didn't expect a Perfect. Eve thought said Perfect, Metal Greymon, was an evolved Devidramon. Reiji and Wanya leapt out to attack it. Eve tried to stop them but it was too late and Reiji got hit by Metal Greymon's claw and sent flying, losing his bat. As Wanya went to him, Eve ordered Kuwagamon to defend him. Reiji was bleeding and badly wounded, the sight of which greatly angered Wanya who was overwhelmed by the desire to kill Metal Greymon in response and evolved into a wireframe Dark Tyranomon. The mysterious man pointed out this went as he planned it and ordered Metal Greymon to collect Wanya too. Wanya and Metal Greymon clashed as Kuwagamon thought his evolution from Elecmon to Dark Tyranomon was unusual and asked Eve permission to take him out, which he still had enough power to do. However, as she remembered both her duty and Wanya's encouraging words to her, Eve could not give said permission. Metal Greymon then took Wanya down with its , with his body flying towards Eve. Reiji blocked him just before Eve was hit and reminded Eve of her promise not to kill Wanya. Reiji also screamed at Wanya, which made him regain control of himself and create the textures of his body, completing the evolution, which he thanked Reiji for. Reiji then mounted Wanya. Kuwagamon didn't understand how Wanya's data stabilized, nor did he want to support Reiji and Wanya as Eve ordered him to, but ultimately did so after seeing Eve's resolute eyes. Reiji proclaimed they'd get the time machine back but the mysterious man told him he neither knew nor could do anything. Seeing an eye in a small dark portal in Metal Greymon, Reiji wondered if a human was talking to him.
Wanya tried to grab Metal Greymon's but couldn't as the latter was too powerful. Reiji thought he had to do something. Kuwagamon then tackled Metal Greymon. Eve told Reiji they'd buy him time so he had to restrain Metal Greymon, and Reiji ordered Wanya to use the Torii gate to do so. As Wanya grabbed said gate, the mysterious man ordered Metal Greymon to stop him, but the Perfect itself was stopped by Kuwagamon who refused to let go even if his pincers broke as he was ordered to support them. Wanya then chained Metal Greymon's neck to the ground with the Torii. Kuwagamon intended to take the chance to delete Metal Greymon but he was stopped by Eve who ordered him not to kill it, to her own confusion, and instead to put it in freeze stasis. Kuwagamon accepted the order which confirmed to Wanya that Eve really was nice. 
Back at Reiji's room, Reiji slept on his bed as Wanya, back as Elecmon, recovered (up to 38%) in Reiji's PC.
