A Puppet Digimon that wears the leather of shoes and the skin of plush toys. If one attempts to touch Shoemon, it will swiftly hop away to escape. It is very cowardly in nature, and, via contact with the ground, acutely senses vibrations to quickly identify outside threats. The incredible grip of Shoemon's sole allows it to traverse the roughest of roads and climb even vertical walls and pillars without issue. Given Shoemon's preference for cleanliness, it dislikes walking in sandy areas or on muddy roads.
It is especially fond of sweet fruits, and opens the sole of its shoe like a mouth to heartily gobble up even tough-skinned fruits whole.
For its special move, Wonder Stomp, Shoemon's sole detaches from the rest of its body and leaps up high as part of a two-step attack. With Petit Needle, Shoemon spits a huge number of sewing needles at enemies, stopping them in their tracks by sewing them right up. Shoemon can even use the sewing needles with thread attached to travel to distant locations.
