First Digivolution path: Champion/Adult- Harpymon

Harpymon is an Armor Digimon who tends to be accessed by a Child/Rooking Digimon(usually Hawkmon but digivolution in general is weird.) using the Digi-egg of light. We obviously had to have Harpymon on our list because heck our url is Harpyboytits of course it made sense. Not to mention it offers some visual cohesion from from Hyokomon, the white hearkens back to the Egg Hyokomon wears while the red is similar to Hyokomons Orange and the Gold assimilate to it's yellow. It also offers up some nice contrast to the other champion idea we had. But first Harpymon DIgivolves to

Ultimate/Perfect- Shutumon/Zephyrmon

It is a bit Ironic that I am making Shutumon the ultimate for the *humanoid* evolution line since it was the *beast* spirit of Wind in its original Appearance. But this sleek wind warrior seemed like a very nice pic for an in between stage between the champion and mega stage. I don't have much to say except I really like the design. I guess I can add that the wing/ears are super cool imo. Mega/Ultimate- Valkyrimon

I had a hard time picking between Valkyrimon and Ancientirismon but ultimately Valkyrimon ultimately felt like it was more cohesive with the line as a whole. The fact that it brings back a bladed weapon makes me feel like i can see this as some sort of Warp or biomerge evolution since those tend to incorporate elements even from the rookie stage. But it also had the white red and gold of Harpymon and ear-wings similar to Shutumon( although valkyrimons are a bit smaller) Alright time for the second potential branching path. Champion/Adult-

Nefertimon is also a digimon that tends to digivolve from the Digimantle of light( usually Gatomon using it to digivolve), you can even see some of the cat-like elements from Gatomon in this design.(which will actually be relevant later) That being said there are elements that could connect to Hyoko, obviously there is the winged element, but the Yellow, red, and white colors hearken back to both Harpymon and Hyokomon.

Ultimate/Perfect- Hipogriffmon

Hippogriffmon moves further away from Hyoko in terms of color scheme, with a primarily white and purple which it keeps from Nefertimon. It also regains some of the bird elements from the lines as a whole. It seems very stoic in nature imo. We always have been a big fan of Hippogriffs and Griffins... speaking of....

Mega/Ultimate- Griffomon

Griffomon feels like an appropriate end for this bird related four legged creature line. While it is the most visually distinct it keeps the yellow/gold motif and the massive front claws the two previous stages had. Amusingly this Griffin digimon has some elements from another mythological creature, specifically the Chimera which is often depicted with a snake like tail. But of course Chimeramon is a completely different terrifying digimon.
