Herissmon is a Digimon brimming with curiosity, and will often focus on whatever has just caught its interest to the exclusion of everything else. Despite this, it’s also extremely cautious, and if it ever feels threatened it will extend its hard, needle-like quills and curl up into a ball until the danger has passed. Once it’s opened up to someone, though, it is quick to become close friends with them, and will happily show off its favorite treasures, which it keeps hidden among its quills. Apparently it’s been bullied several times in the past, and it will instinctively tense up when it sees Gatomon. Herissmon’s special moves include Lightning Fur, where it lights up its quills with a flash before shooting them at foes, and Needle-Point Dive, which involves curling up into a ball and charging towards an enemy.
