Hawkmon

Hawkmon (ホークモン) is a Digimon creature from the Japanese Digimon media franchise that comprises anime, manga, toys, video games, trading card games and other media.

"Hawkmon" is the name that all members of this particular Digimon species share. There are several different Hawkmon that appear in various Digimon anime and manga series.

The most well-known appearance of Hawkmon is in the Digimon Adventure 02 anime as the partner of Yolei Inoue.

The Hawkmon of Digimon Adventure 02 also appears in all the Digimon Adventure 02 related movies.

Appearance
Hawkmon is a small bird-like Digimon with red feathers and large yellow feet. His wings each have three digits, and he can use them like fingers. He has blue eyes, and wears a belt around his forehead. He is more or less a hawk like digimon

Description
Hawkmon is a main character in Digimon Adventure 02, and also appears in its two related movies The Golden Digimentals and Diablomon Strikes Back.

Hawkmon, along with Veemon and Armadillomon, are the three Digimon of ancient times who were sealed away by the Sovereign Azulongmon, to be awakened again in a time of crisis. Hawkmon was freed when Yolei lifted the Digi-egg of Love.

Later in Digimon Adventure 02, Hawkmon gains the ability to assume a second Armor form - Shurimon, from the Digi-Egg of Sincerity. After the defeat of the Digimon Emperor, Hawkmon's natural champion form is unlocked, as well as the ability to DNA Digivolve with Gatomon.

Other forms
The name "Hawkmon" refers to only the rookie form of this digimon. Throughout the series, Hawkmon gains the ability to Digivolve into a number of more powerful forms (each with a different name). The rookie form, however, is his most common and preferred form.

Pururumon
Pururumon is the fresh form of Hawkmon. Pururumon appears when Silphymon loses so much power that Hawkmon is no longer able to maintain his Rookie form. His name comes from the Japanese word "purupuru," which means to shake or to shiver.

Poromon
Poromon is Hawkmon's In-Training form. The name "Poromon" comes from the Japanese word "porori", meaning to drop something.

Hawkmon takes on his In-Training form whenever he returns to the Real World with Yolei. Poromon also sometimes appears when Hawkmon is forced to de-digivolve after a particularly difficult battle.

Aquilamon
Aquilamon is Hawkmon's natural Champion form. The name "Aquilamon" comes from 'Aquila', the Latin word for eagle.

Hawkmon first Digivolved to Aquilamon to save a dam from being destroyed by a Golemon created by Arukenimon, his digivolution triggered after Yolei realized that she had misjudged Ken; having witnessed him destroy a Thundermon earlier, they believed that he was still as ruthless as when he'd been the Digimon Emperor, but the discovery that Thundermon had been created from a Control Spire revealed that he'd only destroyed an artificial Digimon rather than a real one. Since then, Aquilamon has appeared more than Halsemon and Shurimon to battle the new Digimon enemies created by Arukenimon. During the chaos BlackWarGreymon created, Aquilamon and Gatomon became the second pair to DNA Digivolve and form Silphymon.

Halsemon
Halsemon, the "Wings of Love", is the form that Hawkmon becomes when he Armor Digivolves using the Digi-Egg of Love. Halsemon's name is derived from Horus, an ancient Egyptian bird god.

Halsemon is a tribute to Biyomon and its Digivolutions (Birdramon and Garudamon).

Hawkmon first became Halsemon on the day of his revival, when the Digimon Emperor abducted Davis. It was Yolei's love that evoked the Digi-Egg's power, allowing Hawkmon to Armor Digivolve to Halsemon. After that, Halsemon became a valuable fighter during the Digimon Emperor's reign of terror. Yolei also travels by flying on Halsemon's back.

Once Ken renounced his evil persona, Halsemon was no longer needed and appeared only rarely. This was because Hawkmon was now able to achieve his natural Champion form - Aquilamon.

Shurimon
Shurimon, the "Samurai of Sincerity", is the form that Hawkmon becomes when he Armor Digivolves using the Digi-Egg of Sincerity. Shurimon's name is derived from the ninja weapon Shuriken.

Shurimon is the tribute to Palmon and its Digivolutions (Togemon, and Lilymon).

Hawkmon first became Shurimon on the day when they found the Digi-Egg of Sincerity, when Digitamamon was under the control of the Dark Spiral. Yolei's expression of her sincere feelings about Digitamamon caused the Digi-Egg to rise from its hiding place, allowing Hawkmon to Armor Digivolve to Shurimon.

Once Ken renounced his evil persona, Shurimon was no longer needed and appeared only rarely. This was because Hawkmon was now able to achieve his natural Champion form - Aquilamon.

Shurimon first appeared in episode 14 of Adventure 02.

Silphymon
Silphymon is an Ultimate level Digimon who is the DNA Digivolved form of Aquilamon and Gatomon, combining the features and attributes of a Bird type Digimon with that of an Angel-Beast type. Some of Silphymon's recognizable parts are Gatomon's ears, and Aquilamon's wing-top feathers on the arms and legs.

Silphymon was first formed when Yolei, Kari and Ken were trapped within the Dark Ocean and attacked by a Blossomon created by Arukenimon. Kari was too frightened to move but Yolei managed to snap her out of it and told her that as long they were friends, Kari was safe. At that moment, the hearts of Yolei and Kari were beating as one, causing their Digimon partners to merge. The newly formed Silphymon managed to destroy Blossomon and get everyone back into the regular Digital World. Silphymon eventually became essential to fight the likes of Arukenimon, Mummymon and BlackWarGreymon.
