DigiDestined

The DigiDestined (選ばれし子供達, Erabareshi Kodomotachi ?, lit. "Chosen Children") are the major heroes in the Digimon media franchise who have been chosen by certain beings to protect the Digital World, a plane which originated from data produced by Earth's telecommunications networks. This plane is often beset by evil forces, and is closely linked to Earth; saving the Digital World usually saves the Earth as well. The term is primarily used in Digimon Adventure, Digimon Adventure 02, and Digimon Frontier, though it is sometimes used for the protagonists of the other settings in the Digimon franchise. All DigiDestined are partnered with a Digimon, and possess a Digivice; however, these are not defining characteristics, as the "Tamers" in Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01 and Digimon Tamers had the same characteristics and were not considered DigiDestined.

While there are many heroic Digimon who can fight to save their world, a DigiDestined child enables their partner to more quickly grow in power by Digivolving to higher levels of power. This ability to grow quickly allows the DigiDestined's Digimon to quickly surpass the most powerful of enemies, making them instrumental in saving the worlds.

Digimon Adventure / Digimon Adventure 02[edit]
In Digimon Adventure the DigiDestined were chosen by unseen digital beings that wished to help the Digital World from the chaos brought upon it by Apocalymon's influence. There is no information on who chose the DigiDestined of Adventure 02.

Although it has been stated that the DigiDestined from Adventure were chosen because of an earlier battle between Agumon and Parrotmon (in which Tai and Kari helped Agumon Digivolve into Greymon), the second set of DigiDestined were chosen because of various things that the group from Adventure did. Yolei was chosen because she sent many emails during the battle with Diaboromon on the internet, Cody was chosen because he was in the plane that Garudamon saved from crashing when the sky opened, and Davis was part of the group of people who were being held inside the convention center when Myotismon was looking for the 8th DigiDestined.

The twelve main DigiDestined in Adventure and Adventure 02 all come from Japan. Late in the series, they discover that there are DigiDestined in many other parts of the world. Unlike the Japanese DigiDestined, some of the international DigiDestined teams had multiple children paired with the same species of Digimon. Not all of the international Chosen Children were named, and not all were shown.

Digimon Tamers[edit]
The children that are called DigiDestined in Adventure and Adventure 02 are referred to in later seasons as Digimon Tamers. However, in the English dub of Digimon Tamers: Battle of Adventurers, the first Tamers movie, Omnimon calls the Tamers "DigiDestined" Because of this, Takato also calls them "DigiDestined". There are also a few instances throughout the early episodes of the series where Takato calls himself "a DigiDestined" instead of a Tamer.

Digimon Frontier[edit]
The DigiDestined in Digimon Frontier were chosen from a pool of potential DigiDestined gathered by Ophanimon. These children have no Digimon partners. They use the power of the spirits of the Legendary Warriors, deceased Digimon heroes that saved the Digital World of this series in its ancient past, to transform into Digimon themselves.

Digimon Savers (Data Squad)[edit]
The main human characters of this series possess Digivices but are referred to as "partners" or simply the Data Squad (in the English dub) rather than "Digidestined" as they were mostly chosen by DATS.

Digimon Xros Wars (Fusion)[edit]
Unlike the previous series, the children in Digimon Fusion are generals who originally each lead a group of Digimon: A main Digimon partner and several others used to augment that Digimon's power through Digi Fusion. Though they are never stated to be, it stands to reason that each person with a Fusion Loader who is on the good side would be considered DigiDestined.
