Special:Badtitle/NS90:Talk:Complete Monster/Digimon/Examples that should remain here.


 * Piedmon - He hits off the trope's criteria perfectly. As leader of the Dark Masters, he directed their actions that led to the destruction of the Digital World and led their plan to break the barrier between worlds so that they could Kill All Humans. And he personally massacred the digital guardians and attempted to steal the crests, had his forces attack the Primary Village thus killing off baby Digimon and preventing any rebirths, killed Chuumon while trying to kill Mimi, mercilessly toyed with his enemies in order to prolong their suffering, attempted to give the kids and the Digimon friends an And I Must Scream Fate Worse Than Death by locking their souls inside keychain dolls, and tried to physically harm and even murder the two youngest kids. All while being positively giddy about his evildoing and displaying no redeeming qualities whatsoever.


 * Machinedramon - As the second strongest Dark Master, he also comes in at a very close second next to Piedmon in heinous evildoing. He lent his machine army to Piedmon for the massacre of the guardians, is the one responsible for the Gekkomon kingdom getting wiped out and is implied to be the one who killed Piximon, kills his own henchmen and a large number of Numemon on-screen, and makes full use of the resources he has at his disposal to attempt to kill the kids and Digimon in particularly horrifying ways like bombings and shooting. He also shows sadistic pleasure and no redeeming qualities, and the dub makes him even more vicious by giving him lines like about how he wants to kill a young child in the most painful way he can manage.


 * IceDevimon - The Tamers and Frontier incarnations are equally heinous. Both specialize in freezing other living creatures alive and hurting others with sadistic glee, but are portrayed differently - one's like a sociopathic stalker and abusive sexual predator while the other is like a psychotic, cold-blooded Serial Killer. Both stand out as particularly vile by the standards of their works.


 * The D-Reaper - As the entry says, the initial D-Reaper program was simply an AI being gone rogue while still attempting to perform the functions it was made to carry out, but the split entity that attacked Earth was shown to be actively malevolent, sadistic, selfish, arrogant, and nihilistic due to it's absorption of human feelings while probing Jeri and feeding off her misery. Rather than use it's sentience to genuinely improve itself and the world around it, it chooses to seek the destruction of all other life forms just so it can become all-powerful. It goes beyond a Freudian Excuse, shows no mitigating or redeeming qualities, and is truly heinous both by Digimon standards and as a whole.


 * Lucemon - It's shown and expressed by other characters in-universe that his self righteous justification for wanting to destroy and remake the worlds and remove free will from others in order to create a "utopia" and doing so out of love are hollow delusions of an insane, black-hearted Narcissist who's really just attempting to create a Hell that would be an ideal world for him, and he's very clearly spiteful towards other living beings to the point he delights in torturing them and making them suffer in agonizing ways. Once his light side is completely removed, he shows his true colors and openly desires all to be enslaved by him as their overlord. With that in mind, he easily meets the trope's qualifications.


 * MetalPhantomon - While not on Kurata's level, he was operating on a smaller scale than Kurata, with different motives and resources than Kurata, and episodes before Kurata even entered the picture. He showcased no redeeming features and the act of using personal tragedies and psychological issues as means of Mind Rape in order to drain a victim's life energy is in of itself truly heinous enough to qualify him.


 * NeoMyotismon and Gravimon - Their anger and disgust at AxeKnightmon using them for his goals was not Even Evil Has Standards - it was an expression of pride and thus outrage over someone they deemed not to be above them daring to use them like that. Otherwise they have no mitigating factors and meet the criteria for passing the trope.


 * Apollomon Whispered - While Made of Evil, the narrative plays around with this by showing that the extent of that evil is so great that it allows him to defy his original purpose and plot to overthrow his creator, Lord Bagra. His malice also leads to Apollomon being seen in-universe as a Complete Monster by those who are unaware of his true nature. And he's arguably a Dark Marik-type case since Apollomon does have direct confrontation with him within their shared subconscious, and is able to destroy him.


 * MegaDarknessBagramon - Another example of the narrative playing with the trope in an unusual way: Bagra normally doesn't qualify since despite his truly heinous plan, he has mitigating features and regularly isn't as vicious in his actions as others in the series. But after fusing with his brother, he takes on a more psychotic demeanor and adopts more brutal methods, all while displaying no more redeeming features and possessing narcissistic delusions for his multiverse apocalypse in the same vein as Lucemon. In this state, he can be validly interpreted as a Complete Monster, albeit one who unnaturally became such.
