1. INTRODUCTION
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

Digimon Rumble Arena is a very interesting Fighting games. Digimon features in
this games is from Season 1, 2 and 3. Agumon, Gabumon, Patamon and Gatomon from
Season 1 and 2. Veemon and Wormmon from season 2. Guilmon, Renamon, Terriermon
and Impmon from Season 3 (The Rookies).

Why Gatomon? Gatomon is my favourite Digimon and I use Gatomon the most.
Gatomon is a very strong Champion level Digimon for me and can defeat Omnimon,
Imperialdramon and most Mega's Digimon easily in Easy and Normal mode. A bit
harder for BlackWargreymon, Wargreymon and MetalGarurumon but still Gatomon can
defeat them. Gatomon still a good digimon in Hard mode but it is harder because
in this mode, your opponent often Block.


-----------------------------
2. MOVE LIST
=============================

GATOMON (TAILMON)

Partner: Kari (Hikari)

T Attack- Lightning Paw
Gatomon rushes to the opponent and excutive an uppercut. Press [] at the same
time and Gatomon will do a somersault in the air.

O Attack- Cat's Eye Hynotism
A few slow short range projectiles with O shape.

[] Attack- Punch
[] Attack (Air)- Punch, Head Slam, Somersault
Throw-
Dash- Dash Punch


Cat's Eye Hynotism may be a weak and slow projectile attack for you. Yes, it is
slow and close range but this attack has it's own advantages. Slow doesn't mean
weak. If Gallantmon use his Elysion Blaster or Omnimon use Double Shot, your
best way to avoid this is to jump. Yes, double jump but you will still be
damaged if you land before the attacks end. If you use Cat's Eye Hynotism while
you Double Jump, this will delay the landing. Gatomon use Cat's Eye Hynotism
and stop for a second on the air. Cat's Eye Hynotism will also help you from
falling down out of the stage. After you double jump and was about to reach the
platform but you think that you cannot make it, use Cat's Eye while pressing
the D-Pad to the direction of the platform.
If you use Lightning Paw, don't forget to press [] while in the air to add
extra combo and damage.


Digivolves into:

MAGNADRAMON

T Attack- Hermit's Fog
Steam comes out from Magnadramon's mouth. Close range.

O Attack- Fire Tornado
A large projectile attack that spirals outwards. Cannot be stop by any attacks.
If it hits your opponent, this will knock down the opponents.

Digivolve Attacks- Apocalypse
Magnadramon will somersault and Lightning bolts will rain down on the
opponent in the marked area on the ground. You can still attack with [] attack
either in Magnadramon form or Gatomon form while digidevolving.

[] Attack- Head Slam
[] Attack(Air)- Head Slam
Throw-
Dash-

Fire Tornado is an AWESOME projectile attack! Should be the strongest
projectile attack followed by MetalGarurumon's Metal Wolf Claw. It is a large
projectile attack that cannot be stop by any attacks even Metal Wolf Claw and
Reapermon's Bone Duster and Burning/Flame Tornado. It pushes you back if you
this in the air. If this attack hit your opponent, they will knocked down no
matter if your opponent use Digivolve Attack except if they Block.
Hermit's Fog is weak but it charge your Digivolve meter if you use Magnadramon
without digivolving from Gatomon. It also can knock down the opponent or stun
them.

-------------------------------
3. COMBINATION ATTACK (COMBO)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GATOMON

This is the BEST way to use Gatomon. I use this combo to defeat Reapermon
easily and even Omnimon, Beelzemon and Imperialdramon Paladin Mode in Hard
Mode. All you need is timing and once you have master it, you can defeat your
Human player easily without giving him/her any chance to attack!

1. Cat's Eye Hynotism ->Lightning Paw + [] Attack(Air) -> Cat's Eye Hypnotism
  (You can skip the 1st Cat's Eye Hynotism)
2. Lightning Paw + [] Attacks(Air) -> Cat's Eye Hynotism
3. --until Digivolve meter full-->
4. Lightning Paw + [] Attack(Air) -> Digivolve into Magnadramon while your
opponent is down -> Apocalyse! (Immediately) + [] Attacks.
5. Cat's Eye Hynotism -> Repeat 1,2,3 & 4.

How to use this Combo?

1. Lightning Paw + [] Attack(Air)
Use Lightning Paw and press [] while Gatomon is still in the air when Gatomon
execute the uppercut. Gatomon will do somersault knocking the opponent down on
the ground.
2. Cat's Eye Hynotism
Go near the opponent(facing the opponent). Use Cat's Eye Hynotism when your
opponent was ABOUT to get up. This is a bit tricky and require timing. Since
Cat's Eye Hynotism is slow multiple projectile attack, your enemy will be hit
by the attack once your opponent get up even from the last ring of Cat's Eye
Hynotism. This will stun your opponent for a very short time but enough for you
to use Lightning Paw followed by [] Attack(Air).
3. Repeat
You have to repeat the Lightning Paw + [] Attacks and Cat's Eye Hynotism. About
4-7 times using this combo, your Digivolve meter should be full so of course,
time to Digivolve. Lightning Paw + [] Attacks will knock down your enemy.
Immediately Digivolve into Magnadramon and go near your opponent(the nearer the
better). You must use Apocalypse before your opponent get up! And rapidly press
[] while you execute this attack for 10-14 combo.
4. Of course, your opponent will knocked down again. Again use Cat's Eye
Hynotism and repeat.

Note for using this Combo:
-It is sometimes hard to time your Cat's Eye Hynotism because different Digimon
have different speed to get up. Seraphimon gets up very slow while
MetalGarurumon gets up very fast.
-Sometimes, your opponent especially Reapermon and BlackWargreymon will use
their attack as soon as they get up. Bone Duster and Dragon Crusher can disturb
the Lightning Paw attacks.
-If you failed to use Cat's Eye Hynotism as soon as the opponent get up, don't
worry. Try the combo again.


MAGNADRAMON

Hermit's Fog (Close Range):
Go near your opponent and use Hermit's Fog to charge your digivolve meter and
them jump away from the opponent(don't bother trying to attack because
Magnadramon cannot attack for a second) and them use Fire Tornado. If this
attack hits, your opponent should fall down and if your meter is full, use
Apocalyse very close to the opponent and [] at the same time, if not wait and
use [] attacks or Hermit's Fog.

Fire Tornado (Long Range):
Just go as far as you can from the enemy and use Fire tornado especially in the
last Reapermon's stage. You can run when your opponent is still down.
When your digivolve meter is full, use Fire Tornado and go near the enemy and
use Apocalyse with [] attacks.
