Personality

Polypmon is…odd. Understandable given their family history and basically everything about them, but it’s still incredibly noticeable. Easily distracted and constantly flipping between five different thought processes at any given time, Polypmon is fairly easy to overcome just due to how easy it is to confuse them.

They are incredibly curious and excitable with it, which can occasionally dull their senses to danger, or their own health and wellbeing. That said, their eternal enthusiasm comes with its benefits since they are always giving it their all in every situation; in conversation or combat. They can be quite blunt and have to talk through their own thought processes when they’re struggling, but they’ll get there in the end.

Sort of. Polypmon doesn’t really hold a moral centre or any kind of overarching loyalty, in direct contrast to their partner. This can cause them anxiety and distress when they come to the ‘wrong’ decision, which in turn just adds to their perpetual confusion. Still, it’s impossible to say that Polypmon is insincere or in any way unfaithful. At the end of the day they are a very nervous and disorientated wreck of a Digimon just trying their very best in every scenario, and really, you can’t ask for more than that.
