And you guys keep forgetting that Gigan is only two meters tall.

Wait, I thought gigan was full sized? Which means devimon is currently taller them gigan.
<Snipped quote by Absolis>
By a meter or so probably.
@dirty slime
Digimon are beings of pure data, but again, they're able to convert physical matter into data. If their scope is large enough that physical matter falls within it, then these beings' tech would also fall within it.
@dirty slime
1) umm..... how?
2) the Black Gears can't repair organic systems, they only affect technology
3) there was no control involved, the Black Gears were literally just a power boost. Devimon incorrectly assumed Gigan was going to murder all kinds of shit on his own. I've already stated that player characters cannot be mind-controlled by Devimon.
This is a reply to your post IC tho.
@dirty slime
1. Sufficiently advanced alien tech acts as a vaccine-type against Devimon? That makes no sense...
2. Sure, but it just means that any organic tissue damage would still be remaining.
@dirty slime
Yeah, but how would that affect a Digimon?
No normal program is going to harm a Digimon, because a Digimon isn't bound by the rules of computer science. An antivirus could attempt to delete it, and a Digimon could simply eat the antivirus. It's a virus-type, but it's not actually a virus. It's a living entity that originates in data, but it's not really a computer program....
Logically speaking, there's no real way any technology Gigan possesses would be able to delete Devimon. An antivirus system would simply serve as a light snack, unless it was animate and magical.
@Flamelord
Digimon live off of data, data of any kind. Hell, many are even able to convert physical matter into data to consume, effectively consuming the information that constitutes their existence. All Digimon are able to leech of of the emotions of humans for power, effectively using the data they produce as they travel through the human emotional spectrum. So yeah, they could totally eat Goa'Uld tech.
@dirty slime
I'm fine with you defeating Devimon just by punching him, but logically speaking you wouldn't get the vaccine advantage. If Gigan had been built to defeat Digimon, maybe, but Gigan's creators aren't even aware digimon are a thing.
