Apocalymon functions essentially as the Digital World's Recycle Bin, holding the data of all deceased and unreborn Digimon. Its entity is dominated by the Digimon with the largest data size, and consequently the most powerful among them: the Dark Masters, whom the Chosen Children believed they had just managed to defeat. Due to this peculiar existential nature, Apocalymon harbors a deep grudge against the Children and the Digital World's "system" as a whole, which prevents everyone from living according to their nature, regardless of how corrupted it may be. This actually makes Apocalymon one of the few generic "I want to DESTROY the world!!" characters who possesses understandable motives for doing so: consider him a kind of conglomeration of all the animals and humans that have "lost" in the Natural Selection of our world, and imagine how they would feel about such a system.
