What they could do with the Olympos 12 in a Digimon Next Gen Story
So something I found strange about Digimon Savers is that the Merukimon is stated in-universe to be a member of the Olympos 12, and yet he is the only member of said group to appear in Savers. So here is my theory regarding what might have happened to the rest as as my predictions for a role they have in a hypothetical Digimon next gen story (for the sake of context, assume this is a crossover between the first 6 series, or at least Adventure and Savers)
A few centuries after the Olympos 12 defeated the 7 Demon Lords, a vengeful minion of the Demon Lords poisoned most of the Olympos 12 by slipping a cursed potion in their drinks during a feast, which most them drank except for Mereukimon and Bacchusmon (who were about to drink the laced punch but stopped when they noticed soemthing happening to their fellow Olympos 12 members). The cursed potion/poison caused the the Olympos 12 members who drank it to revert to Digieggs, and thanks to the effects of the potion, they will stay Digieggs until the eggs come within proximity with a compatible human (though the minion refrained from revealing this clause). So Merukimon and Bacchusmon placed the eggs in special temple for safekeeping until they revive them.Â
A few years prior to the events of the Savers, Bacchusmon got so drunk that he feel asleep just before Kurata’s first massacre and didn’t wake up until just after the events of Savers (hence his own absence during Savers).Â
Later, a few years after Tri, Claude (my nickname for dark Gennai) goes to to the Savers Digital World to steal the digi-eggs of some of the Olympos 12 (specifically the eggs of Junomon, Marsmon, Venusmon, Minervamon, Neptunemon, and possibly Vulcanusmon) and took them back to his world. However, he wasn’t able to get the eggs to hatch. Then, sometime later, while Claude was spying on the Ken and Miyako as Miyako was in labor with her and and Ken’s daughter, Claude noticed that Junomon’s egg had started to move around. Junomon’s eggs then managed to break free and flew to the Ichijouji residence where it hatched and became the partner of Ken and Miyako’s daughter. Rinse and repeat with the eggs of Neptunemon, Venusmon, Marsmon, Minevamon (and Vulcanusmon if he’s not partnered with someone in the Savers universe)Â
Who they are partnered with and their pre-evolutions are
Dianamon- Natsuki Norstein (the OC daughter I came up with for Tohma)
Apollomon- If Masaru somehow has a child (probably a boy), then this child would almost certainly be Apollomon’s partner; if Masaru is childless (which would probably be more likely seeing as he lives in the Digital World), then Apollomon’s partner could be another child of Tohma, perhaps Natsuki’s twin (I do headcanon Tohma as having several children).Â
Jupitermon- partnered with Suzume (the daughter of Ikuto and Chika); Rookie form- Falcomon (the version that actually looks like a falcon, not the version that looks like an owl, mainly because Ikuto is already partnered with the owl version, so if Jupitermon has Falcomon for its rookie form, it’s gonna have to be the the original version that actually looks like a falcon, unless he takes a note from Gatomon and has his champion form as the default form); Champion form- Aegiomon; Ultimate/Perfect form- Aegiochusmon
Ceresmon- partnered with Haruna Mori (Yoshino’s daughter)Â
Junomon- partnered with Kumiko IchijoujiÂ
Marsmon- partnered with Isamu (Taichi’s kid)- child form is Liollmon, adult for Liamon, perfect form Grapleomon
Venusmon_ Yamato and Sora’s daughter
Neptunemon- Nobu Kido (Joe’s kid); adult form is Dolphmon, perfect form is Divemon
Minervamon- she is partned with with Izzy’s daughter or Iori’s daughter (whom I call Reina)Â
Vulcanusmon- either he is partnered up with Iori’s daughter (if she’s not partnered with Minervamon), or he is instead partnered with someone from the Savers continuity and his partner is either a) another child of Tohma’s, b) the child of Kouichirou (Masaru’s friend from episode 11) or c) the token “not the child of anyone of consequence” child.
Edit: added the evolutionary lines for Neptunemon and Marsmon
Edit: I recently learned that the Digimon franchise consistently presents Aegiomon’s rookie form be Elecmon, so let’s go with that instead of the original version of Falcomon)
