MetalGreymon

According to the Digimon Reference Book, more than half of MetalGreymon’s body is machine, and its attack power is equal to a single nuclear warhead. That makes it a fitting Ultimate form for Taichi “Tai” Kamiya’s Agumon. This profile explains the orange Vaccine and blue Virus versions, its evolution lines in the anime, the games and the card game, what its attacks do, and how to get it in Digimon Story: Time Stranger and older games.

Who is MetalGreymon

MetalGreymon is the Ultimate-level form of Greymon. A large part of its body has been replaced with metal armour and weapons. In the Japanese level system this stage is called “Perfect” (Kanzentai). In Digimon Adventure (1999), it is the form Tai’s Agumon reaches after Greymon. In most later games, cards and series it sits between Greymon and WarGreymon.

The Digimon Reference Book describes it as a Cyborg-type Digimon that has mechanized more than half of its body. Wikimon groups the standard Vaccine version under the Nature Spirits, Dragon’s Roar and Metal Empire fields. In the card game it is a Level 5 Digimon. In the Digimon Story games and Digimon World: Next Order it is the Ultimate you need on the way to WarGreymon, which is why it shows up in so many evolution guides.

Name and international names

The Japanese name is written “Metal Greymon”, with a space. The English releases use “MetalGreymon” as one word. The name doesn’t change meaning between regions: “Metal” refers to the cyborg parts added to Greymon. The 1999 debut episode’s Japanese title, “Perfect Evolution! MetalGreymon”, plays on the word “Perfect”, which is also the Japanese name of the level MetalGreymon belongs to.

Debut across media

The Vaccine MetalGreymon most fans picture first appeared in Digimon Adventure episode 20, titled “The Earthquake of MetalGreymon” in the English dub. The blue Virus version is older. Wikimon notes that MetalGreymon was originally meant to be a Virus Digimon on the first Digital Monster virtual pets (1997). This is why the blue version keeps coming back in games that are based on the virtual pets.

Orange vs blue MetalGreymon: which is which?

The short answer: orange MetalGreymon is the Vaccine version from Digimon Adventure, and blue MetalGreymon is the Virus version. Both are the same species, at the same level and of the same type. What changes is the attribute, the colour and, in the games, the evolution routes that lead to each one.

MetalGreymon (Vaccine)

The orange MetalGreymon is the version you see when Tai’s Agumon digivolves the right way in Digimon Adventure. It is Agumon’s Ultimate form, powered by the Crest of Courage, and the anime treats it as the reward for Tai learning what courage really means. Most later media, including Adventure: (2020), Time Stranger and many cards, use this design.

A common question in fan communities is why Adventure made MetalGreymon orange when the original was blue. The production reasoning isn’t documented in the sources here. The story reason is clear, though: Adventure’s heroes are Vaccine-leaning partners. When Agumon is forced into a corrupted Ultimate form, the result is the Virus SkullGreymon. That makes the orange Vaccine MetalGreymon the healthy form Tai has to earn.

MetalGreymon (Virus) / MetalGreymon (Blue)

The blue MetalGreymon’s anime debut came in Digimon Adventure 02. While Agumon is controlled by the Digimon Emperor’s Dark Ring, Greymon dark-digivolves into a blue MetalGreymon instead of the familiar orange one. Many fans are asking whether the blue MetalGreymon is evil. The species isn’t evil. The anime simply introduced it through mind control, so it became linked with villainy.

Digimon Story: Time Stranger avoids the attribute wording and calls this version MetalGreymon (Blue). Older Digimon Story titles, such as Cyber Sleuth, use MetalGreymon (Virus). It is the same Digimon under two names, depending on the game.

The File Island lore

The Reference Book gives the blue colour a cause inside the story. It says that on File Island, some MetalGreymon’s flesh couldn’t withstand the cyborg remodelling and became discoloured, which turned them blue. Inside the story, then, blue MetalGreymon are the result of the cyborg conversion going wrong. That also explains why the blue version fits the Virus attribute so well.

Evolution line

The core line is the same almost everywhere: Koromon → Agumon → Greymon → MetalGreymon → WarGreymon. Beyond that, each medium adds its own alternate routes. Some games let other Champions reach MetalGreymon, and several give it Megas other than WarGreymon. The tables below show each medium separately so the lines don’t get mixed up.

Standard line in the anime

In Digimon Adventure (1999), the line runs in a straight path. Tai’s partner hatches as Botamon, becomes Koromon, then Agumon, Greymon, MetalGreymon and finally WarGreymon. The anime’s main detour is a dark one. When Tai forces an early Ultimate evolution, Greymon becomes SkullGreymon instead of MetalGreymon.

Medium	From	MetalGreymon version	To
Digimon Adventure (1999)	Greymon	MetalGreymon (Vaccine)	WarGreymon
Digimon Adventure 02 (2000)	Greymon (Dark Ring)	MetalGreymon (Virus, blue)	Dark digivolution only
Digimon Adventure: (2020)	Greymon	MetalGreymon, later Alterous Mode	WarGreymon

Digimon Story games

The Digimon Story series offers the most routes, and Time Stranger is now the main game for them. Digivolution there is gated by Agent Rank and stat thresholds. Many Champions can reach MetalGreymon if they meet those numbers.

Game	Target	Evolves from	Evolves to
Digimon Story: Time Stranger (2025)	MetalGreymon	Greymon, Tyrannomon, Deltamon	WarGreymon, Gaiomon
Digimon Story: Time Stranger (2025)	MetalGreymon (Blue)	Greymon (Blue), Dorugamon, Veedramon	Check the in-game Digivolution chart
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth	MetalGreymon	Greymon	WarGreymon
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth	MetalGreymon (Virus)	Greymon	Check the in-game Digivolution chart

In Cyber Sleuth, Gematsu’s coverage of the Japanese reveal confirmed that Greymon has four Ultimate options: MetalGreymon, MetalGreymon (Virus), Megadramon and SkullGreymon. Each one has its own conditions. This is where the orange/blue split first became a choice you could make in the Story series.

Card game

The Digimon Card Game doesn’t use fixed evolution trees. Any Level 5 card can be played over a Level 4 card that meets the digivolution condition printed on it. In practice, MetalGreymon cards are built to digivolve from Greymon cards and into WarGreymon cards. Newer printings also link into the Greymon (Blue) and Virus line.

Card game step	Example card	Level
From	Greymon (for example BT1-015)	Level 4
MetalGreymon	BT1-021, BT24-015	Level 5
To	WarGreymon (for example BT1-025)	Level 6

Alternate pre-evolutions and Megas across games

The other routes are where the games really add to the anime. Next Order adds two unusual prior forms and three alternate Megas. Time Stranger adds Gaiomon, a samurai-style Mega.

Game	Evolves from	Evolves to
Digimon Story: Time Stranger	Greymon, Tyrannomon, Deltamon	WarGreymon, Gaiomon
Digimon World: Next Order	Greymon, GoldVeedramon, Growlmon (Orange)	WarGreymon, ShineGreymon, KaiserGreymon, Alphamon
Digimon Survive (Moral line)	Greymon	WarGreymon
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth	Greymon	WarGreymon
Digimon Adventure anime	Greymon	WarGreymon

WarGreymon is the default next step, but it isn’t your only choice:

• WarGreymon: the anime’s next form and available in every game listed here.
• ShineGreymon: the Digimon Savers lead’s Mega, reachable from MetalGreymon in Next Order.
• KaiserGreymon: another Next Order option. It is the Fusion Mega from Digimon Frontier.
• Gaiomon: a Time Stranger option at Agent Rank 7, a good fit if you prefer a sword-fighter Mega.
• Alphamon: a Royal Knight and Next Order’s surprise route from MetalGreymon.

Signature attacks

MetalGreymon has three signature attacks: Giga Destroyer (missiles from the chest), Trident Arm (a strike with its metal claw) and Giga Storm (an energy wave). The Reference Book describes all three, and the anime, games and cards build on them.

Attack (original)	English dub name	What it does	Where it appears
Giga Destroyer	Giga Blaster	Fires organic missiles from a hatch in the chest	Reference Book, Adventure anime, most games
Trident Arm	Mega Claw	Strikes with a claw of enhanced Chrome Digizoid	Reference Book, Adventure anime
Giga Storm	Not used in the 1999 dub	Releases a powerful energy wave	Reference Book; also a MetalGreymon: Alterous Mode attack

Giga Destroyer (the missiles)

If you’re trying to find the name of “the MetalGreymon missile attack”, it’s Giga Destroyer. The Reference Book says it fires organic missiles from a hatch in MetalGreymon’s chest. “Organic” is the strange part: these are part-living weapons, which fits a creature that is half flesh and half machine.

How it looks changes between anime eras. In Digimon Adventure (1999), the chest opens and a pair of large missiles fly out. This is the image most fans remember, and the English dub called it “Giga Blaster”. Digimon Adventure: (2020) keeps the chest-hatch idea with modern CG missiles. In Time Stranger and other games it appears as MetalGreymon’s main ranged attack.

Trident Arm

Trident Arm is MetalGreymon’s close-range attack, a slash or launch of its large three-clawed metal left arm. According to the Reference Book, the arm is made of enhanced Chrome Digizoid, the strongest metal in the Digimon world. The Adventure dub renamed the attack “Mega Claw”, and in some scenes the claw extends on a cable.

Giga Storm

Giga Storm is the attack used least often. The Reference Book describes it as a powerful energy wave. It came back in Digimon Adventure: (2020) as one of MetalGreymon: Alterous Mode’s attacks, so it’s worth learning the name if you watched the reboot.

Appearances

MetalGreymon appears in almost every era of Digimon media. It is a main partner form in Digimon Adventure, a corrupted villain in Adventure 02, a Kiriha-linked variant in Digimon Xros Wars, and a reworked hero with a new mode in Adventure: (2020). The sections below cover each of them, then the games and the cards.

Digimon Adventure (1999)

MetalGreymon’s first big moment comes after a failure. Before Tai earns the Ultimate level, he pushes Agumon too hard, and Greymon dark-digivolves into SkullGreymon, a wild skeletal Virus Digimon. The series uses that failure to show that real digivolution comes from the partner bond and the Crest of Courage, not from forcing it. That idea runs through every series, as does the Digivice, which channels that energy to the partner.

The payoff comes in episode 20, “The Earthquake of MetalGreymon”. Agumon finally reaches MetalGreymon to fight Etemon, set to the evolution theme “Brave Heart”. Fans who grew up with the show remember it as clearly as the Butter-Fly song that opened every episode. After the Etemon arc, MetalGreymon is Tai’s main fighter through the Myotismon arc in Japan and into the Dark Masters arc, until WarGreymon takes over.

Digimon Adventure 02 (2000)

Adventure 02 gave fans the first anime MetalGreymon with blue skin. Early in the series, Agumon is caught by a Dark Ring, and the Digimon Emperor forces Greymon into a dark digivolution. The result is a blue Virus MetalGreymon that the new DigiDestined have to fight before Tai’s partner is freed.

The scene is short, but it’s the main reason fans connect blue MetalGreymon with evil. It also made the Virus design canon in the main anime timeline years before Time Stranger made it a Digimon you can recruit.

Digimon Xros Wars (2010)

Digimon Xros Wars has its own MetalGreymon, which Wikimon lists as Metal Greymon (2010 Anime Version). It belongs to the Greymon partnered with Kiriha Aonuma, the rival general, and its blue-tinted design matches that series’ style. Treat it as a separate anime design, not the same character as Tai’s MetalGreymon.

Digimon Adventure: (2020)

The 2020 reboot gave Tai’s partner a new path. Agumon reached WarGreymon early in the series. MetalGreymon then debuted in episode 10, which ComicBook.com reported under the title “The Steel-Solid Super Evolution”. Its new CG version keeps the chest missiles and Trident Arm, and the series later gives it an upgraded form, covered next.

MetalGreymon: Alterous Mode

MetalGreymon: Alterous Mode is an upgraded MetalGreymon created for Digimon Adventure: (2020). It first appeared in the episode “The Tide-turning Update”, where it fought Splashmon. Wikimon lists three attacks for it: Positron Blaster, Alter Blade and Giga Storm.

The name and the episode title explain the idea: this is MetalGreymon after an “update” that rebuilds its weapons. Positron Blaster is the long-range attack, Alter Blade is the melee attack, and Giga Storm links the form back to the original MetalGreymon’s Reference Book attacks. If the anime is your main interest, this is the most notable new MetalGreymon form since the 2000s.

Alterous Mode also became popular in the card game, with at least three printings: BT5-015 from Battle of Omni, the P-072 promo from the Update Pack, and EX9-012 from Versus Monsters. These are covered in the card game section below.

How to get MetalGreymon in Digimon Story: Time Stranger

In Digimon Story: Time Stranger, which Bandai Namco released in October 2025, you get MetalGreymon by digivolving Greymon, Tyrannomon or Deltamon once you meet the Agent Rank and stat requirements. MetalGreymon (Blue) comes from Greymon (Blue), Dorugamon or Veedramon. Both are Ultimate-level, and both lead toward the Mega tier.

Standard MetalGreymon routes

Grindosaur’s Time Stranger database confirms three prior forms: Greymon, Deltamon and Tyrannomon. Published guides don’t agree on the exact numbers, which matters if you’re planning an efficient grind.

Target	From	Agent Rank	Stat requirement	Source note
MetalGreymon	Greymon	3+	1,120+ Max HP	Sportskeeda guide
MetalGreymon	Tyrannomon	3+	840+ ATK	Deltia’s Gaming guide
MetalGreymon	Deltamon	Not listed	Not listed	Grindosaur confirms the route
MetalGreymon	Any route	5	1,480+ Max HP, 1,300+ ATK	Game8 guide (higher numbers)
MetalGreymon (Blue)	Greymon (Blue), Dorugamon, Veedramon	5	1,220+ ATK, 740+ INT	Game8 guide; routes per Grindosaur

There are two main reasons the numbers might differ. The guides may have been written against different builds, or some may list the requirements for a single route while others list the combined requirements. Either way, the game shows the real numbers for your copy.

If you’re asking “Greymon to MetalGreymon: what am I missing?”, the answer is almost always Agent Rank, not stats. Players often raise Max HP far past the threshold while their Agent Rank is still too low. If Greymon is stuck, the Tyrannomon route is a good alternative, because the Deltia’s Gaming guide lists it at a low 840 ATK.

MetalGreymon (Blue)

Agumon (Black) and Gabumon (Black) were Time Stranger pre-order bonus Digimon, and Agumon (Black) can digivolve into Greymon (Blue). Many players therefore believe they need the pre-order to get MetalGreymon (Blue). You don’t. According to Grindosaur, Dorugamon and Veedramon can also digivolve into MetalGreymon (Blue), so you can get it without owning Greymon (Blue).

Game8 lists the blue version at Agent Rank 5 with 1,220+ ATK and 740+ INT. The INT requirement is the one players miss. The standard MetalGreymon routes focus on HP and ATK, but the blue one also wants some INT, so a pure physical build may fall short.

Evolving to WarGreymon or Gaiomon

MetalGreymon has two Mega options in Time Stranger: WarGreymon and Gaiomon. Nightly Gaming Binge’s field guide lists both at Agent Rank 7+. It gives the WarGreymon route as 2,350 Max HP and 2,430 ATK.

Short term, Gaiomon is the different pick for players who want a sword-style Mega in place of the familiar armoured dragon. Long term, WarGreymon is the classic choice and the one most fans want for the Adventure nostalgia. Both need the same Agent Rank, so you can also de-digivolve and raise the other line later.

Beating MetalGreymon in the prologue

MetalGreymon is the first boss you fight in Time Stranger, during the prologue, and you can recruit it later. Players often ask how to beat it. The fight is built around the team the story gives you at that point, so there’s no hidden trick or grinding route. Use your starting team’s strongest skills, heal before anyone drops low, and focus your attacks on MetalGreymon.

Do Time Stranger starters have a lifespan?

No. Like the rest of the Digimon Story series, Time Stranger has no lifespan or ageing system. Your Digimon don’t die of old age the way they do in Digimon World 1 or Next Order. You can digivolve and de-digivolve them freely, which is why the Digimon Story games suit planning routes like the ones above.

MetalGreymon in other Digimon games

Outside Time Stranger, MetalGreymon is a key Ultimate in Digimon World: Next Order, Digimon World 1, Digimon Survive and the Cyber Sleuth games. Each game reaches it in its own way. Next Order and World 1 use raising sims with care requirements, Survive uses karma, and Cyber Sleuth uses level and stat gates.

Digimon World: Next Order

In Digimon World: Next Order (first released on PS4 in the West, then on Switch and PC in 2023), MetalGreymon comes from Greymon, GoldVeedramon or Growlmon (Orange), according to Grindosaur’s Next Order database. It can digivolve into WarGreymon, ShineGreymon, KaiserGreymon or Alphamon. That’s four Megas, the most of any game covered here.

This range of Megas is MetalGreymon’s main strength in Next Order. A MetalGreymon partner can become the Adventure icon, the Savers lead, the Frontier Fusion Mega or a Royal Knight. Your stats, weight and care when the evolution happens decide which one you get.

Next Order’s in-game evolution history page turns a requirement green once you meet it, so you can check your progress without a guide. If you already have a WarGreymon, aim the next MetalGreymon at ShineGreymon, KaiserGreymon or Alphamon to fill out your roster.

Digimon World 1

In the original Digimon World (PS1, 1999), MetalGreymon comes from Greymon. The rule structure is well documented: each evolution has four groups of requirements (stats, weight, care mistakes and a bonus condition), and you need to meet three of the four. The care mistake counter resets at every evolution, so only mistakes made while your Digimon is a Greymon count.

Fan guides, including the community tables discussed on r/DigimonWorld, don’t agree on the exact stat thresholds for MetalGreymon. The most reliable approach follows from the rules above. Keep Greymon’s care mistakes very low, train all six stats evenly instead of only Offense, and keep your weight under control. Meeting the care, stat and weight groups covers three of the four, which is enough even if the bonus condition fails.

Digimon World 1 also has a lifespan, unlike Time Stranger. A Greymon that takes too long to meet its conditions can run out of time, so start training as soon as Agumon becomes Greymon.

Digimon Survive

In Digimon Survive (2022), Agumon’s evolutions follow the karma system. MetalGreymon is on the Moral line: Agumon → Greymon → MetalGreymon → WarGreymon. The Harmony line goes through Tyrannomon instead. The Wrathful line differs between guides, so pick your karma deliberately if MetalGreymon is the goal.

Cyber Sleuth and Hacker’s Memory

In Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth and Hacker’s Memory, Greymon can become MetalGreymon or MetalGreymon (Virus), along with Megadramon and SkullGreymon. Gematsu’s coverage of the 2014 reveal confirmed this split. It was the first time a Story game let you choose between the orange and blue versions directly. The Complete Edition (2025) updated many digivolution requirements to match Hacker’s Memory, so check the in-game screen for exact numbers.

MetalGreymon in the Digimon Card Game

In the Digimon Card Game, MetalGreymon is a Level 5 Digimon with many printings. They range from the original Release Special Booster to the January 2026 Time Stranger set. The Alterous Mode cards and the new Virus card are the ones current players talk about most. If the Digimon TCG is new to you, MetalGreymon is a good example of how one character can have many different cards.

Card number	Card	Set / product	Notable details
BT1-021	MetalGreymon	Release Special Booster Ver.1.0	Uncommon; the original standard printing, also reissued as a 2023 Regionals participant card
BT1-114	MetalGreymon	Release Special Booster Ver.1.0	Secret Rare; play cost 8, 9,000 DP
BT5-015	MetalGreymon: Alterous Mode	Battle of Omni	First Alterous Mode card
P-072	MetalGreymon: Alterous Mode	Update Pack promo	Promo printing
EX9-012	MetalGreymon: Alterous Mode	Versus Monsters	Newer Alterous Mode printing
BT19-025	MetalGreymon	Booster Set 19 era	Rare; also reissued as a celebration event card
BT24-015	MetalGreymon	Booster Set 24 “Time Stranger” (Jan 23, 2026)	Level 5, Virus, 7,000 DP; Security effect plays it for free if the opponent has a Level 6+ Digimon

BT24-015: the Time Stranger MetalGreymon

BT24-015 is the newest MetalGreymon card and the most interesting design. It comes from Booster Set 24 “Time Stranger”, released on January 23, 2026. It is a Level 5 Virus Digimon with 7,000 DP, and it ties into the blue Greymon line made popular by the video game.

Its Security effect is what makes it stand out. If BT24-015 is revealed from your security stack while your opponent has a Level 6 or higher Digimon, you can play it for free. That punishes opponents who rush to their Megas, and it gives you a free 7,000 DP blocker at an important moment.

The card also carries some fan history. With the Will’s Booster Set 24 preview coverage in December 2025 showed a Greymon (Blue) and MetalGreymon (Virus) art preview. It confirmed the Virus version was getting its own art treatment in the card game, decades after its virtual pet debut.

Alterous Mode cards

The three Alterous Mode printings (BT5-015, P-072 and EX9-012) follow the Digimon Adventure: (2020) version. Collectors tend to look for the P-072 promo because it came in a limited Update Pack product. Deckbuilders more often use the newer EX9-012. The card game also has a competitive scene with regional and championship events, and the Regionals reissue of BT1-021 shows how often MetalGreymon is chosen for prize cards.

Trivia

MetalGreymon has collected a lot of trivia over 25+ years. Most of it explains why the character looks and behaves the way it does in each medium.

• The pun in the debut title: The Japanese debut title “Perfect Evolution! MetalGreymon” is a pun, because “Perfect” is the Japanese name for the Ultimate level.
• Blue came first: The blue Virus design came before the orange Vaccine anime version. Wikimon notes that MetalGreymon was originally meant to be a Virus Digimon on the first virtual pets.
• SkullGreymon came first in the anime: In Digimon Adventure, the first Ultimate form Tai’s Agumon reached was SkullGreymon, through a forced dark digivolution. MetalGreymon came later.
• Two names, one Digimon: Cyber Sleuth calls the blue version MetalGreymon (Virus). Time Stranger calls it MetalGreymon (Blue).
• Chrome Digizoid arm: According to the Reference Book, the Trident Arm is made of enhanced Chrome Digizoid, the same kind of metal used for WarGreymon’s armour.
• Prologue boss: In Time Stranger, MetalGreymon is the first boss you face and later a Digimon you can recruit, an unusual role for such a well-known partner Digimon.
• “Black MetalGreymon”: In the anime and the main games, no MetalGreymon is officially named that. Searches for it usually mean the blue Virus version or BlackWarGreymon, the black Mega from Adventure 02.

FAQ

What level is MetalGreymon?

MetalGreymon is an Ultimate-level Digimon, called “Perfect” in Japanese. In the Digimon Card Game, that level is printed as Level 5. It sits between Greymon (Champion) and WarGreymon (Mega).

What does MetalGreymon digivolve into?

In the Digimon Adventure anime, it digivolves into WarGreymon. In Digimon Story: Time Stranger, it can become WarGreymon or Gaiomon at Agent Rank 7+. In Digimon World: Next Order, it can become WarGreymon, ShineGreymon, KaiserGreymon or Alphamon.

Why is MetalGreymon blue sometimes?

Blue MetalGreymon is the Virus version. It is based on the original virtual pet design, where MetalGreymon was meant to be a Virus Digimon. In the Reference Book lore, File Island MetalGreymon turned blue when their flesh couldn’t withstand the cyborg remodelling. In the anime, the blue version first appears in Digimon Adventure 02 as a dark digivolution.

Is MetalGreymon Vaccine or Virus?

It’s both, depending on the version. Orange MetalGreymon from Digimon Adventure is Vaccine. Blue MetalGreymon is Virus, called MetalGreymon (Virus) in Cyber Sleuth and MetalGreymon (Blue) in Time Stranger.

Is the blue MetalGreymon evil?

No. Being Virus isn’t the same as being evil, and the blue version is an ordinary Digimon you can recruit in Time Stranger. It feels villainous mostly because Adventure 02 first showed it as Agumon’s forced dark digivolution under the Digimon Emperor.

How do you get MetalGreymon in Digimon Story: Time Stranger?

Digivolve Greymon, Tyrannomon or Deltamon. Guides list Agent Rank 3 with 1,120+ Max HP for Greymon, or 840+ ATK for Tyrannomon. Game8 lists higher numbers (Agent Rank 5, 1,480+ Max HP, 1,300+ ATK), so check the in-game Digivolution screen to see the requirements in your version.

How do you get MetalGreymon (Blue) in Time Stranger?

Digivolve Greymon (Blue), Dorugamon or Veedramon. Game8 lists Agent Rank 5, 1,220+ ATK and 740+ INT. You don’t need the pre-order Agumon (Black), because the Dorugamon and Veedramon routes are open to every player.

How do you get MetalGreymon in Digimon World 1?

Raise Agumon into Greymon, then meet three of the four requirement groups for MetalGreymon: stats, weight, care mistakes and a bonus condition. Keep care mistakes very low while it’s a Greymon, train all stats evenly and keep your weight under control. Watch the lifespan timer while you do.

What is MetalGreymon’s missile attack called?

It’s called Giga Destroyer, and the original Adventure English dub called it “Giga Blaster”. The Reference Book describes it as organic missiles fired from a hatch in MetalGreymon’s chest.
