Guardromon

Guardromon is a Champion-level Digimon, partnered with Kazu Shioda. He first met his own Tamer in the Digital World, as Kazu was part of a rescue mission to save Calumon at the time. Guardromon was in his Ultimate form of Andromon at the time, and was trying to help a village of Gekomon by getting rid of the Digimon forcing them to work for him - an Orochimon. He failed to defeat Orochimon and was seriously injured, so much so that he de-digivolved into Guardromon. He became Kazu's partner shortly after Orochimon was defeated. Despite being the only Digimon to never exceed the Champion level whilst being with a Tamer, Guardromon proved useful many times, including saving Gallantmon's life by distracting Beelzemon with his Guardian Barrage, and preventing Justimon from sustaining serious injury from a falling rock thrown by one of the D-Reaper's agents. His known digivolutions are Andromon and HiAndromon.

Guardromon is, to put it bluntly, a little slow on the uptake. It takes him a long time to adjust to the behaviour of humans and doesn't always grasp what it is that Kazu is asking him to do. This is because he is too literal, for instance "Watch Suzie," translated as "Stare at Suzie," instead of "Look after Suzie," which is what Kazu had meant. He also had a habit of copying his partner's lines and gestures, much to the chagrin of Kazu. Despite this, Guardromon eventually began to gain a sense of humour of his own, although he still tended to do whatever it was the Kazu was doing at the time. His alliance with Kazu's mother was uneasy, as she tended to kick him, especially when he trod's on her flowers.
