Prologue: EDEN 5

Ghastly BoyThere are three different type of Digimon here, but you can take only one.

Ghastly BoyWhich will you choose?

PlayerThe excessively adorable animal type. The possibly fragrant plant type. The mechanical-looking machine type.

Ghastly BoyThat Digimon... You want Terriermon?

PlayerI want Terriermon! No, I changed my mind.

Ghastly BoyThat Digimon... You want Palmon?

PlayerPalmon it is! Hang on a sec...

Ghastly BoyThat Digimon... You want Hagurumon?

PlayerIt's gotta be Hagurumon! Wait, let me think about it.

Ghastly BoyYou seem to have made up your mind.

Ghastly BoyOkay, let's bring you out of your shell. Several steps are required to obtain a Digimon.

Ghastly BoyIf you discover or encounter a Digimon program, run a scan, and then acquire the analyzed data.

Ghastly BoyThose are all done with Digimon Capture. You can use that without any restrictions.

Ghastly BoyBut just because you got the analyzed data doesn't mean the Digimon program itself is yours.

Ghastly BoySomeday, immense power might be yours. When that day comes, responsibility will come along with it.

Ghastly BoyHackers may be free spirits, but they must never succumb to chaos. Never that.

Ghastly BoyI'm sure most of this went over your head. But tuck it away in a corner of your mind.

Ghastly BoyBesides, merely having Digimon Capture gives you hacker status. It's a special program, but...

Ghastly BoyA hacker's abilities, values and goals can all be seen in how well that hacker can use Digimon programs.

Ghastly BoyBecause protecting the order of EDEN is a hacker's first duty.

Ghastly BoyI would be very happy if you would try to become that kind of hacker.

Ghastly BoyAfter all, hackers have been with EDEN since its inception.

Ghastly BoyYou want the Digimon right now?

Ghastly BoyI see. You heard what I had to say and decided you wanted to become a proud hacker too. Excellent.

Ghastly BoyWell, then, follow the steps. Start with a Scan. Have Digimon Capture running and target a...
