ゴマモン

**Gomamon** (ゴマモン) is Kido Jō's Digimon partner and a main character in Digimon Adventure.

## Personality

Gomamon has a friendly personality and always encourages Jō.

## History

Gomamon's digitama, along with the other Digimon partners, was made by Gennai and the other agents by orders of Homeostasis. Upon the Dark Masters' attack, Gennai managed to escape with the digitamas and hide them on File Island. The digitamas eventually hatched, and as the baby digimon awaited their human partners, Pitchmon evolved to Pukamon.

## Digimon Adventure

After a long wait, Pukamon meets Kido Jō who arrives in the Digital World. Frightened by the strage creature, Jō runs away in fear, as Pukamon follows him. The two eventually meet the other children and digimon; Yagami Taichi and Koromon, Izumi Kōshirō and Motimon, Takenouchi Sora and Pyocomon, Takaishi Takeru and Tokomon, Ishida Yamato and Tsunomon, and lastly Tachikawa Mimi and Tanemon, who were running from Kuwagamon. The group has to flee the raging beetle, until they reach a cliff. When Kuwagamon is about to hit, following Koromon's example, the digimon attack. The little creatures take damage from Kuwagamon but are still determined to fight and protect their human partners. When Kuwagamon reemerges, they leap out of their partners arms and evolve to their child forms. Now stronger, Gomamon and the other digimon attack Kuwagamon and momentarily defeat him. However, as they celebrate with the children, Kuwagamon recovers and breaks the cliff, sending them all plunging into the river.

## Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna

Gomamon and Agumon watch a medical drama on TV in Jō's house. After a horrendous surgery scene, the two Digimon talk about Jō and his fear of blood, which makes Gomamon worried that he won't be able to become a doctor. As they eat, Gomamon comes up with an idea to see if Jō has grown out of his fear of blood. In the evening, when Jō returns from work, he finds Agumon and Gomamon lying in the middle of the street with red markings calling for help, claiming they are injured. Knowing they are not really injured, Jō ignores them as well thinking it is a new game. However, Gomamon calls on him and tells him it is a test to see if he can be a doctor who is not afraid of blood. Tired, Jō says he goes home to sleep, and to Gomamon's annoyance, his attention shifts to a lost dog. The dog then runs off into the street road, and Jō follows it when a truck suddenly drives in front of him. Gomamon pushes Jō out of the way and gets hit instead. As Gomamon is now really injured, Jō takes care of his bleeding and then takes him to the hospital. When the bandaged Gomamon awakes, Jō explains that he is not afraid of blood anymore. Relieved, Gomamon says he is always worried about Jō because he is unreliable, and Jō realizes he might be right and thanks him for saving him from the car accident.

## Epilogue

By 2027, Gomamon has reunited with Jō, who has become the Digital World's first doctor and had a son. One day, Gomamon tells Jō that Ogremon got drunk and fell off a cliff. After rushing to him, Jō is overwhelmed by the amount of blood and faints, as Gomamon yells at him that he is a doctor. On another day, Gomamon joins Jō and his son to a meeting with all the other Chosen Children and their Digimon in the Digital World. Before the son sets off, Jō tells him to take care, and Gomamon reassures he will be fine.
