The first Digimon series was Digimon Adventure. It featured a group of kids at Summer Camp who got transported to the Digital World. There they each bonded with a Digimon. The children were able to to Digivolve their Digimon to their In-Training and Champion levels. This allowed the children and their new digital friends to fight off evil Digimon. The children soon learned that they were the DigiDestined. They received the Crests that allowed their Digimon to Digivolve into their Ultimate forms. Eventually, they found themselves back on Earth, forced to defend it from an evil Digimon known as Myotismon. There they discovered the eighth DigiDestined and her companion Digimon. Eventually, the DigiDestined returned to the Digital World to battle the Dark Masters. After the Digital World was saved, they said good-bye to their digital friends before returning to the real world for good. |

The second Digimon series was Digimon Adventure 02. This was set a few years after the first series and introduced a new group of DigiDestined. They traveled to and from the real and Digital Worlds. They battled the Digimon Emperor. The old DigiDestined would show up to help and give the younger kids advice. The Digimon Emperor was really just a depressed young kid. He eventually joined the DigiDestined to battle the true evil, Arukenimon. Eventually, both worlds were saved and humanity lived in peace with Digimon. |

The third Digimon series was Digimon Tamers. It was set in an alternate timeline where Digimon was just a TV show, but the Digital World was still a real place. Digimon crossed over into the real world and were monitored by a government installation called Hypnos. Three kids bonded with three Digimon to become Digimon Tamers. They defended the real world from unfriendly Digimon. They were able to Digivolve their Digimon as well as assist them using Digimon Cards to power them up. Eventually their battle took them to the Digital World itself. A rogue computer program, D-Reaper, threatened both worlds. The Tamers were able to destroy this threat, but the battle forced them to say good-bye to their Digimon. They could no longer exist in the real world and had to return to the Digital world to live on. But the portal remained alive. |

The fourth Digimon Series was Digimon Frontier. It was yet another alternate timeline, one that saw five kids get magically sent to the Digital World by Trailmon. This time the kids became Digimon themselves, through the power of Spirit Evolution. They used their powers to battle the evil Legendary Warriors, five Digimon that used similar spirits as their power source. One of them was actually a human child who later joined their side. In the end, they saved the Digital World from the brink of extinction. |

A new Digimon Series recently ended in Japan, named Digimon Savers. Once again set in an alternate timeline, this series saw three teenagers join forces with Digimon under a military organization defending the real world from rogue Digimon crossing into their dimension. An American dub is currently being rumored. |
