Ep. 19: Discovery of Hope Crest leads to betrayal by Datamon in Etemon's pyramid
Aired on July 11, 1999
T.K.'s Crest of Hope is found in a cave with Digi-code, leading Izzy to theorize the Digital World is virtual reality. An email from inside Etemon's upside-down pyramid headquarters asks for help. Tai, emboldened by Izzy's theory, leads the group to meet Datamon, creator of the Dark Network. Datamon promises Sora's Crest in exchange for freedom. After being released, Datamon betrays the DigiDestined as Etemon arrives, kidnapping Sora and Biyomon into another section of the pyramid. Izzy explains he might be wrong about the inability to die, but Tai becomes too frightened to pursue Datamon.
