Plot

Template:Spoiler

First Part: The Beginning

Main article: Digimon Adventure § Digimon Adventure (The movie)

The first story focused on Tai and Kari Kamiya four years before their adventure in the Digital World. It shows their first encounter with Digimon and what happened to them (as well as the other children) when they participated in their first digimon battle after raising a quickly growing Botamon. In the story, that Digimon hatches from a Digi-egg and eventually evolved into Greymon to fight a Parrotmon who appeared in the city. The movie was used in episodes of Digimon Adventure to explain why Tai and company became the DigiDestined in the first place.

Tai Kamiya and Kari wake to find a Digi-Egg that came out of their computer the night before and the egg soon hatches, revealing a Botamon. The Digimon then evolves into Koromon and then Agumon, who then goes out and unintentionally destroys a good part of the neighborhood with Kari riding on his back. A second Digi-Egg appears in the sky to reveal an evil digimon, Parrotmon (they don't say his name in the movie). Agumon then Digivolves to Greymon but isn't strong enough to beat Parrotmon and is knocked out. Tai grabs Kari's whistle and wakes up Greymon, who defeats the Parrotmon and disappears with him.

Note: The Greymon in this part of the movie is not the same as Tai's partner in the series and other movies.

Second Part: Enter Diaboromon

Main article: Digimon Adventure § Our War Game!

Izzy Izumi discovers a virus on the internet infecting a Digi-Egg. At the same time, Tai is trying to apologize to Sora Takenouchi for getting her a hairclip for her birthday in an e-mail. Izzy arrives at Tai's house out of breath, telling Tai about the newly-hatched Digimon. Tai and Izzy use Tai's dad's computer and monitor the Digimon until Gennai appears in a transmission from the Digital World. He sends Agumon and Tentomon to help stop the corrupted Digimon. They put up a good fight until Keramon Digivolves to Infermon and defeats them. Tai tries furiously to contact and alert the rest of the Digidestined and ends up getting only Matt Ishida and his brother T.K. Takaishi. They find a computer in a barber shop and upload Gabumon and Patamon onto the net. Infermon Digivolves to Diaboromon after Agumon and Gabumon Warp Digivolve to WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon but then they slow down because of the e-mails. Tai slaps the computer and freezes it leaving WarGreymon frozen and defeated. Diaboromon then starts multiplying and sets up a timer as the Pentagon is forced by him to launch two nuclear missiles: one headed for Colorado, the other for Tai's neighborhood. WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon wake up and race to defeat Diaboromon, only to find over a million copies of him. Every single copy fires and blast them until they lie defeated. Tai and Matt mysteriously enter their computers and talk to their Digimon. WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon DNA Digivolve to Omnimon who easily defeats all but one Diaboromon. Diaboromon is still too fast for them to hit however but then Izzy fowards him the e-mails, slowing him like it did to the other Digimon. At the very last second, Diaboromon is destroyed, disabling the missiles. But the virus tracks down Willis and infects Kokomon.

Note: There are clues that show that Infermon was looking for Willis.

  • Kari stated at the end of the movie that Willis's twin digimon were Terriermon and Kokomon, but his digimon are Gummymon (Terriermon's in-training form) and Kokomon

Third Part: Willis and Kokomon

Main article: Digimon Adventure 02 § Digimon Hurricane Touchdown/Supreme Evolution! The Golden Digimentals

This part features the characters in the second season and Willis is the main character. T.K. and Kari are in New York City taking a picture but are having trouble then Kari senses something. The attention turns to Willis and Terriermon, who engages in a battle with Endigomon (who keeps saying "Go back.") and loses. Willis and Terriermon journey to Colorado while Kari e-mails Davis Motomiya to inform him of Willis. After taking planes and taxis, they end up meeting Willis in a truck while Kari and T.K. get derailed by Endigomon (who says "Don't interfere." just like Diaboromon). Willis tries to get Davis, Yolei Inoue and Cody Hida a lift to his house. The ride leaves without Willis and Davis, who encounter Endigomon which leads to a battle between him, Flamedramon and Gargomon (the evolved form of Terriermon who digivolved for the first time) but before anyone is defeated, Endigomon disappears, repeating "Go back." Davis and Willis meet up with Yolei and Cody who told Davis that Kari And T.K. aren't here (Davis' only concern is Kari). Willis doubts that they'll come at all if Endigomon interfered. After the kids question his knowledge about Endigomon, Willis reveals he created him but regrets saying so and storms off (being followed by Davis). Willis reveals the story about Endigomon, how he became infected and reveals that HE created Diaboromon. Davis offers to help with the rest of the kids and their Digimon. Terriermon overhears the conversation (blaming it on his "really big ears") and offers to help. Willis refuses his help out of concern for his safety but Terriermon talks him into letting him. Endigomon reappears and Digivolves to Antylamon. He evades the attacks of Gargomon, Flamedramon, Halsemon and Digmon and throws all the Digimon around like ragdolls. Antylamon sinks into the lake (and changes the scenery) and rises in his Mega form, Kerpymon . He then de-digivolves all the Digimon, grabs them and is about to eat them when Angemon and Angewomon cut off his arms and T.K. and Kari show up. The scenery changes again and all the DigiDestined grow younger, revealing that Kerpymon wanted Willis to "go back" in time to when the virus attacked him. Angewoman and Angemon digivolve to their Mega forms to release two Golden Digi-Eggs for Willis and Davis. Veemon and Terriermon Golden Armor Digivolve to Magnamon and Rapidmon who get sucked into Kerpymon. Inside they see Endigomon who tells them to destroy the virus. Doing so purifies Kerpymon who disappears but reconfigures into a Digi-Egg.

Note: They advertise Mazda in this film (billboard for Mazda and the pizza truck is a Mazda too).

  • Everyone still calls him Kokomon even when he has digivolved to his Champion, Ultimate and Mega forms.
