Pumpkinmon was a minion of Myotismon. Although Pumpkinmon was supposed to find the 8th Digidestined, he and Gotsumon wanted to have fun and play tricks on people. Matt, T.K., and Gabumon became friends with Pumpkinmon and Gotsumon temporaly, until Myotismon shows up and told the two minions to attack Matt, T.K., and Gabumon. When Pumpkinmon and Gotsumon refused to fight them, Myotismon condemned them back to the Digital World. (Note: In the original Japanese version, Myotismon just kills them.)
