Digimon Dictionary

English

A Demon Dragon Digimon that bears 8 huge heads. However, 7 out of 8 of them are fakes, and the black head in the center of its body is the real one. The origins of Orochimon's birth are ancient and its plaguing of the Ancient Digital World was something immemorial, but since it devastated an entire area with its rampaging, it had been sealed by the Tamer of an "existence" that preserved the harmony of the Digital World. Its signature attack is "Sake Breath", wherein it intoxicates the enemy with an intoxicating alcohol-induced breath. Its special attack is "Ame no Murakumo", wherein it sharpens the tip of its tail so that it becomes as sharp as a sword before cutting the enemy with it. (Wildermon)

Japanese

８本の頭部を持つ巨大な魔竜型デジモン。しかし、８本ある内の７本はダミーであり、中央の黒色の頭部が本体である。オロチモンの誕生起源は古く、古代デジタルワールドでは猛威をふるい、あるエリアを壊滅状態にまで追い込んだことがある程の存在だったが、デジタルワールドの調和を保とうとする“存在”の使いによって封印されていた。得意技はアルコールを含んだ息で敵を酔わせて酩酊させてしまう『酒ブレス』。必殺技は尻尾の先が切れ味の鋭い刃になり敵を切り裂く『アメノムラクモ』。

English

A Digimon with eight heads. Seven out of the eight are fake and only the black head at the center of its body is the real one. The roots of Orochimon's creation are old and its rampages across the Ancient Digital World were immemorial, and because it totally destroyed one part of the world, it was sealed away in the past by a "being" who maintained harmony. (Wildermon)

Japanese

八つの頭を持つデジモン。八つのうち七つは偽物で、中央の黒い頭だけが本体である。オロチモンの誕生起源は古く、古代デジモンワールド時代に暴れ回り、一つのエリアを壊滅状態にまでさせたため、調和を保つ“存在”の使いに封印されていたという過去がある。
