Bakomon is a Mutant Digimon. It is a Digimon who hides its entire body within cardboard boxes. Its personality is timid to the point that it prefers to confine itself indoors, but being covered in cardboard bestows it a sense of security that allows it to walk about outdoors uninhibited. Anyone who tries to peek at the insides of the cardboard boxes will end up getting packed into and trapped within one of the boxes. It is not fond of battling as the cardboard covering it is very soft.[2]
