Digimon Digital Monster Original (Asian Ver)

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Digimon, the makers of Tamagotchi, Bandai, are releasing a special 20th Anniversary Digimon Digital Monster Virtual Pet. It's the original Digimon, but with plenty of new features.

The Digimon virtual pets are a series of toys which were first released in 1997 by Bandai. What became a TV series, toyline, comic, trading card game, and more began as the simple concept of a Tamagotchi for boys (as Bandai was also the creator of the Tamagotchi). The virtual pet is incredibly similar to its predecessors, with the exceptions of being much hardier and being able to connect to fight other Digimon virtual pets. Every owner would start off with a Baby Digimon, train it , evolve it, take care of it, and then have battles with other Digimon owners to see who was stronger. The Digimon pet had several evolution capabilities, so owners could have many different Digimon within one toy. These toys were the first appearance of what would become the Digimon franchise.
