Digimon Vital Bracelet Lab - Journal Log #84.3 Ancient Volcamon

Digimon: Ancient Volcamon エンシェントボルケーモン
DiM series: Vol. 01 Volcanic Beat
Additional Notes: One of the legendary 10 warriors from Digimon Frontier, Ancient Volcamon here looks great on the VB too. Only gripe about his sprite is only if he can be a bit bigger. But I guess there are technical constraints on the sprite dimensions. Otherwise it definitely looks menacing. Sadly, he has been quickly power crept by Ancient Sphinxmon in the following DiM Vol. 02. So, while I might keep him in a capsule, I am very unlikely to use him in raid battles. Also, I don't understand why Volcamon needs to be renamed to Volcanomon? Is there something sensitive in Volca again? Don't tell me it is because it sounds like Vodka...

Side Note: My apologies, it seems my Tamers DiM have finally arrived and I would like to take a quick detour to get the latest meta Digimons into my app ASAP. So for the next 4 journal logs, I will be detouring to the Tamers DiM, after which I will resume Volcanic Beat and Blizzard Fang and then round back to complete the rest of Tamers EX DiMs.


I have also made guides for the VB:
Guide Part 1 - Pro Tips and Useful Tricks
   • Digimon Vital Bracelet / Vital Hero G...  
Guide Part 2 - Raid Tips (and a very useful VB cheat)
   • Digimon Vital Bracelet / Vital Hero G...  


Intro:
Virtual Pets are my favorite (evidently from my other videos). So Vital Bracelet is a dream come true for me, for many reasons...
(1) Digimon with colored pixels / sprites
(2) Vpet I can wear on my hand
(3) Vpet is based on activity, I run a lot of errands everyday, and now I am also rewarded in gamification for my effort
(4) Design of the rearing mechanics for this one is more forgiving (less strict on mistakes) and no element of RNG (older Vpet has a chance you might not evolve to Perfect or Ultimate)
(5) the accompanying VB Lab app brings up the sprite and animation to an enhanced visual experience on your smartphone, bigger is better.

So now I am going to rear every Digimon which I can afford to buy. (I can’t buy every DiM card, but for those that I do buy, I will rear every Digimon in that card).

And I will document every Digimon I raise and as much as I can capture, sleeping animation, battles, etc.

Happy to share that many elements on the VB Lab app has been updated to English (items, item details, encyclopedia entries etc.). With such an update, I will just document the Digimon description on the App, instead of porting over from Digimon Reference Book from Wikimon!
