Kazemon

Kazemon (フェアリモン Fairymon)

Human Spirit of Wind

Kazemon, also known as Fairymon in Japan, is the Human Spirit of Wind. Her original name comes from the English word “fairy”, while her name in the dubbed version comes from “kaze”, the Japanese word for wind. She is kind, caring and strong. Her preferred attacks are powerful kicks and hurricane force winds. She first transformed into Kazemon on the episode “Kazemon Kicks It” when she confronted with the Mushroom brothers who were endangering the Floramon. She like agunimon.

Later she became Kazemon again to help distract the Goblimon. In the episode “Can’t Keep a Grumblemon Down”, Zoe lost her spirit while fighting Gigasmon, and didn’t get it back until “No Whamon”.

Kazemon has large butterfly-like wings sprouting from her back. She uses these wings to take flight.

Attacks:

• Hurricane Wave [Brezza Petalo (Breeze Petal)]: Long, thin tornadoes erupt from Kazemon’s fingertips which she throws at her enemies.
• Tempest Twist [Tornado Gamba (Tornado Leg)]: Does a hand stand while spinning very quickly, creating a strong force of wind that slams her foes.
• Love Tap [Carino Anca (Lovely Hip)]: Taps her foes with her rear end causing temporary feelings of attraction.
• Rapid Kick [Roseo Temporale (Rosy Time)]: Rapidly kicks her enemy with both her legs.

Zephyrmon

Zephyrmon (シューツモン Shutumon)

Beast Spirit of Wind

Zephyrmon, also known as Shutumon, is the Beast Spirit of Wind. Her Japanese name comes from the word Shutu who is the Sumerian god of the south wind. Her English name comes from Zephyrus, the Greek god of the west wind. She is agile, swift and powerful, and always ready to fight and protect her friends. Considered the most beautiful and fierce of all the spirits, Zephyrmon attacks by manipulating energy, wind and slicing foes with her razor sharp claws, which can also slice through Calmaramon’s Acid Ink. Surprisingly, Zoe was able to control her Beast Spirit without any challenge, contrary to the boys (except Koichi who had no trouble because he was trying to protect his brother Koji and Tommy who was trying to protect Takuya, Koji, Bokomon, Neemon and Datamon), whose Beast Spirits went on destructive rampages or were having having some minor problems with maintaining control until the boys learned to control them; this ability Zoe attributes to her being a girl. However, it was her need to fly that allowed her to control it quickly; Zoe felt she needed to fly to protect her friends and was thus able to control it fast. Zephyrmon first appeared on the episode “The Swiss-Family Digimon” to fight Ranamon, the Warrior of Water who attacked the Digidestined as they attempted to cross the water to get to the island where the Gomamon lived. Zephrymon later defeated and killed Ranamon in a one on one fight with Ranamon as Calmaramon.

Zephyrmon can use her large brown wings to take the air and soar through the sky at incredible speeds. She also has the vision of an eagle.

Attacks:

• Hurricane Gale (Wind of Pain): Throws blades of pink energy at her foes, which rip and slice them with the force of a tornado.
• Plasma Pods (Gilgamesh Slicer): Red energy orbs form around her hands and feet with which she uses slices and dice her enemies with the power of a hurricane.
