However, rival franchise Digimon offered its own appeal, from its very early 2000s take on cyberspace to a plot with stakes and characters way more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geek.com\/culture\/digimon-adventure-tri-is-good-sad-anime-nostalgia-1690422\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">compelling<\/a>\u00a0than Pokemon\u2019s glorified sports drama.<\/p>\n<p>Pokemon has decidedly won that battle. Remember <em>Monster Rancher<\/em>? However, if you\u2019re still holding a torch for that other monster menagerie, check out this Digimon mod for <em>Pokemon Sword and Shield<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/379926733?portrait=0&amp;badge=0&amp;color=ff9933\" width=\"590\" height=\"332\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>For the most part the <em>Pokemon Sword and Shield<\/em> mod has been an extension of the Dexit tantrum, adding back old Pokemon that were initially cut from the game. It\u2019s nifty to see this in action, but I was hoping we\u2019d get Pokemon mods that didn\u2019t quite feel like such a petulant tantrum.<\/p>\n<p>This wacky Digimon mod though is totally up my alley. At <a href=\"https:\/\/gamebanana.com\/skins\/173859\"  rel=\"noopener\">Game Banana<\/a>\u00a0you can check out a series of Digimon skins created by Hollow. It\u2019s pretty modest. Charmander becomes Agumon and Charmander\u2019s evolutions become Agumon\u2019s digivolutions Greymon and MetalGreymon. It\u2019s a cool crossover (even if technically Digimon don\u2019t stay in their evolved forms permanently the way Pokemon do). If you\u2019re going to bend the rules with Nintendo Switch modding, you might as well go for broke like this.<\/p>\n<p>For more on Digimon read our interview with the voice of Tai himself <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geek.com\/culture\/digimons-joshua-seth-on-blowing-minds-and-reuniting-with-digital-monsters-1698814\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">Joshua Seth<\/a>.
