Machmon is a Cyborg Digimon. It is a Digimon that yearns for speed. Dust clouds over barren plains are often caused by Machmon's rampaging. Although its appearance resembles that of a bike, it lacks a seat, and no one is willing to ride it. However, it thinks that it will find a Digimon destined to master it someday. It views anyone who travels at high speed as an enemy, so it is a natural-born bōsōzoku.[1] Occasionally, large gangs of Machmon have been witnessed roaring noisily around with Rebellimon.[2]
Attacks
- Max Edge (Full-throttle Edge): Tears the enemy to pieces with the blades protruding from various parts.
- Chaos Fire (Madness Fire): Indiscriminately shoots with the four gun muzzles mounted to the sides of its front wheel.

Machmon resembles a living motorcycle monster. On its back is spine bones and its head is covered in a dark grey armor. Its skin is dark brown with subtle green stripes. On its head is two front-curving horns that resemble the two throttles of a motorcycle. It has a large back wheel and a smaller front wheel.
