Examon scale

Firstly let's talk about how powerful the Royal Knights are in average compared to normal Ultimate level Digimon.

Ultimate Level Digimon as the epitome of Digimon evolution [have power equivalent to an incarnation of a god, embody a god-like being in the Digital World,have power closest to God's](https://imgur.com/a/YegpPrL) and are [god-like beings each one embodying their own world](https://imgur.com/a/gO0en5A) and judging from Canoweissmon and Regulusmon's inner world [wich contained multiple universes](https://imgur.com/a/O8L7B3l) word = multiverse.

[Few Digimon evolve to Ultimate, and their power is immense. It is up to the Ultimate level to put the Digital World in danger or lead it to peace.](https://imgur.com/a/MQlpI4z)

And they are far stronger than:

- Skull Greymon [who can destroy the Digital World.](https://imgur.com/a/LIaLlbY )

Taking into account that his counterpart Metalgreymon [shattered the dimensional wall between the worlds](https://imgur.com/a/bgiqiJs) wich has [six layers/dimensions that border and separate the two worlds](https://imgur.com/a/JRPbsEk) him being able to destroy the Digital World isn't far fetched at all.

- Etemon Chaos [who obtained the power to destroy the Digital World.](https://imgur.com/rdUTUv5)

- Dagomon [who ruled oved his own dimension](https://imgur.com/a/CglLB7u) and it was said [that it's fog can swallow everything](https://imgur.com/a/fMAvB )

while showing [the Digital Worlds of other dimensions](https://imgur.com/a/EX7sKi6) showing it is capable of swallowing them in its deep fog.

- In Digimon Adventure 02 episode 26-27, the base that Ken built when he was the Digimon Kaiser began to run amok with the [power of darkness from the World of Darkness,which was said to be the same as Dagomon's Sea mentioned earlier,](https://imgur.com/a/02-ybsvD2N) and if the engine explodes, [the Digital World will disappear and it was said that only Paildramon can stop the explosion.]( https://imgur.com/a/kwXZVVL )

- Megadramon who is a Perfect level [installed with a program for the destruction of all data](https://imgur.com/a/megadramon-otjhMyK )

and was created [to destroy the Digital World itself](https://imgur.com/a/megadramon-LH1Ixp4 )

and was [ programmed to destroy everything in the Digital World.](https://imgur.com/a/D5i4QBD )

By comparison the Royal Knights:

[ - boast the highest level of power in the Digital World](https://imgur.com/tIYTEGi )

- are the [strongest Digimon who protect Yggdrasil](https://imgur.com/UBwfRS1 )

- posses [absolute strength within the Digital World](https://imgur.com/coJVGmB )

- are [Ultimates that transcend the Ultimate level]( https://imgur.com/a/0Mhs9aa )

- are [a step above Ultimate level Digimon and are the strongest force in the Digital World](https://imgur.com/a/BOddSIj )

- are the [strongest Digimon second only to Yggdrasil](https://imgur.com/a/0un7Cse )

- and [posses absolute strength and unparalleled power.](https://imgur.com/PUfXgOI )

Take into account that Imperialdramon [has power rivalling the gods](https://imgur.com/a/apIUOUf) aka the Four Holy Beasts.The Holy Beasts uphold the fabric of space-time of the Digital World and maintain its balance and their power even extends to the Human World. They are the pillars that keep all worlds on the floating line and keep them from collapsing.](https://imgur.com/a/nTzJrNo)

And they have created the realm of the Holy Beasts](https://imgur.com/a/ioNDhDv) which is of a higher order and bigger than all the other layers of the Digital World, and the miniverses they contain. And the Royal Knights are much stronger than them.

- In BT2 one of Examon's Adult forms [Coredramon Green faced and defeated Holy Beast Baihumon.](https://imgur.com/a/fs3ZJZp) who is said that [tho it is the youngest it is the strongest of the Holy Beasts.](https://imgur.com/a/Zq98Q47)

[ - Groundramon faced and defeated Holy Beast Xuanwumon.](https://imgur.com/a/8dY3eHP

- Groundramon [evolves to Breakdramon against Qinglongmon](https://imgur.com/a/fXMLTPF) but he is [ultimately brought back to its senses by Royal Knight Dukemon and Metalgarurumon.](https://imgur.com/a/GUsjkdf)

Take into account tho that they only managed to bring him back to his senses they didn't defeat him and they died while doing so.

[ - Slayerdramon appears against and defeats Holy Beast Zhuqiaomon.](https://imgur.com/a/cSaWcH3)

[ - Examon is shown in BT2 to face and defeats Huanglongmon. ](https://imgur.com/a/vy8K8QB)

Huanglongmon rules over the Sacred Beasts [who maintain the Digital World's balance and uphold its fabric of space and time and their power can extend to and can even help with the Human World. They are literally the pillars that keep all possible worlds from collapsing.Like a bridge.Take out the pillars and the bridge collapses.](https://imgur.com/a/b7kzHt7)

The bridge would be the Digital World and [it would collapse upon a myriad of other worlds resulting in a mishmash of worlds or a world of nothing but darkness/nothingness.](https://imgur.com/a/HIkFmdj)

They are the cornerstones that keep all worlds on the floating line and their relationship with all worlds is just like that between Hades and the Underworld from Saint Seiya. Their existence holds the entire cosmology together.

This would include other worlds besides the Human and Digital World like:

- [the Dark Area

The normal Digital World, Digital World: Iliad, and others each have their own Dark Areas.Each Dark Area is connected to a deepest layer known as Cocytus. There is only one Cocytus, an area shared by each and every Digital World. The Dark Area exists in an altogether separate layer. The Dark Area corrodes conventional space. It's a world of nothingness. It can swallow both the Digital and Human Worlds. It can destroy the boundaries between the worlds and make the Digital World fall apart. It's multi-layered,infinite and time stops within the Dark Area. It exists in a spatial distortion.](https://imgur.com/a/nw7FAus)

- The Dark Ocean

[The Dark Ocean is stated in 02 to be another world/dimension](https://imgur.com/a/BcCb02k)

- [World of darkness of Daemon

Demon comes from a different world of darkness compared to Devimon and Vamdemon]](https://imgur.com/a/s4N7w3C)

- [the world that turns wishes to reality from the end of 02](https://imgur.com/a/1uDiZHk)

- [the 5 pillars of light appearing at the end of 02 confirmed by Kakudo to be worlds connected with the Dark Ocean.](https://imgur.com/a/AvTZFty)

- The Human World of Digimon alone [ has countless worlds overlapping each other one world for each possible possibility,worlds existing infinitely and in parallel,and infinitely branching worlds](https://imgur.com/a/fWqkEUm) and in the Japanese text [ it's said that the world is made out of multiple multi-layered structures with as many worlds as there are possibilities.](https://imgur.com/a/TsTTUqO)

- The Digital World [is managed and operated on multiple servers aka parallel worlds,is beyond the Network aka in a superior hierarchical position to it like a higher plane of existence,it's multi-layered, transcends and errodes reality,it's a higher level structure that encompasses the Human World to the point where the Human World is just 1/108 zones and even if you'd use the Human World as a processing resource you cannot process the Digital World's data, all human worlds are scattered in the middle of the Digital World,the layers are literally the past, present and future and you have to transcend space and time to travel through them, Digimon have created miniverses worlds specifically designed to beffit their characters and abillities.](https://imgur.com/a/LXpJpiv)

And the Human World [was said in TRI to be a mere shadow of the Digital World](https://imgur.com/a/owkDP4v) aka the Digital World sees the Human World as fiction.

- The Digital World is [infinite/boundless](https://imgur.com/a/AwHlzer) and has [boundless data.](https://imgur.com/a/4hyCCni#HsPwOtT)

- [Mention of infinite timelines.](https://imgur.com/a/hinW98X)

- [ Infinite possibilities](https://imgur.com/a/GP6yu33) and [Unlimited Dimensional Topology.](https://imgur.com/a/sFjB14C)

[The Digital World and the Human World formerly didn't associate with each other,normally aren't connected,were originally independent of each other,are separate and don't interfere with each other, the Digital World is a separate dimension from the Real World.](https://imgur.com/a/fDWuheE)

It's said that [if something happens, the Devas are called in first, and if they can't solve the problem, it's the Four Sacred Beasts turn and if they can't, then it's Huanglongmon's turn. It's hard to imagine a situation where Huanglongmon would show up.](https://imgur.com/a/CLwcNgx)

Huanglongmon is  so superior to the Holy Beasts that in Digimon Fortune they leave the Sistermon(Noir and Blanc) face him who had to use the [Fortune Program and help from the Tamers to battle against the Wish Program that corrupted Huanglongmon](https://imgur.com/a/Jlc4brb)

And before this [the Sistermon did defeat all the Holy Beasts](https://imgur.com/a/kDIkMnq) on [their way even making Qinglongmon faint](https://imgur.com/a/9Amtebz) and he even commented later [that they nearly killed him.](https://imgur.com/a/lA3Sl0o)

In Digimon Crusader [you have to release the Sacred Beasts one at the time and than together with them face Huanglongmon.](https://imgur.com/a/d45FXP3)

[Examon also takes on and defeats Ogudomon at the end of Battle Terminal 2 a Super Demon Lord that surpasses the Demon Lords.](https://imgur.com/a/2RYCnIb)

Take into account that the Demon Lords alone [have the power to destroy the entire Digital World singlehandedly.](https://imgur.com/a/OcQ4TE4)

And as seen in [Digimon Collectors Ogudomon can also collapse the world by existing.](https://imgur.com/a/YdNkK0t)

It's possible that Examon used an ability called Ultimate Burst against Ogudomon.

This ability [recovers HP and increases attack power and speed by 1.5 times.](https://imgur.com/a/vVaPOeK)

Examon is also stated in Cyber Sleuth by [Alphamon and Omegamon to be the Royal Knight with the highest destructive power and highest level of battle power among them](https://imgur.com/a/zr8vuLr) and in Cyber Sleuth he takes on [Omegamon,Dukemon,Magnamon,Ulforceveedramon and JESmon](https://imgur.com/a/sYQaq5u)

and the protagonist team (Hi-Andromon,Saint Galgomon,Rosemon) at once while erroded by the Eaters.

[In New Century he was able to withstand a prolonged onslaught from Leviamon X for quite a while tho he was eventually left in a critical state and had to be given the X-Antibody from JESmon to not die and Gankoomon and Duftmon had to distract Leviamon.](https://imgur.com/a/sJlXPWE)

[ The base form of the Demon Lords posses the power to singlehandedly destroy the Digital World,they exist in all parallel worlds thanks to their sheer power and Base Leviamon has multiple statements from his official and game bios and from SLM and ReArise that he can swallow the Digital World whole. ](https://imgur.com/a/Ri8o9bg)

And to put into perspective just how powerful Leviamon/Leviamon X is he took on Yihumon,Dijiangmon,Seiten Gokuwmon and SkullGreymon in New Century.

Yihumon was called [the leader of the Four Inauspicious Beasts so he should be the most powerful in the group.](https://imgur.com/a/CsZeIjj)

[Yihumon was undefeated for 30 straight years in the Wasteland brawl,was called the fighter who can pulverize stars with a single punch and whose claws can rend the galaxy and took out three Ultimates in just 10 seconds. He also easily defated the Demon Lord Barbamon and when asked by Lucemon, Lilithmon answered that Yihumon seemed stronger even with the magic from Barbamon's staff and Lucemon wanted him to join them because of his strength because his memory data contains crucial intel for battling Yggdrasil and he is the decisive weapon they'd need when it's time to bring Yggdrasil down. And even if it was a dream and and memory projections he was able to fend off multiple Royal Knights. And Yggdrasil's sealed archives labeled Yihumon's group as extremely dangerous.](https://imgur.com/a/dVf8Xee)

Barbamon is able to [release the entire energy of the Dark Area.](https://imgur.com/a/wt1PRiW)

The normal Digital World,Digital World Iliad and others [have their own Dark Area and each Dark Area is connected to a deepest layer known as Cocytus. There is only one Cocytus an area shared by all Digital Worlds. It resides in a dimensional distortion. The Dark Area errodes space while active. It is the world of nothingness. It can swallow both the Digital and Human World. It can destroy the boundaries between worlds and tear apart the Digital World while active. It is infinite and multi-layered and time stops there.](https://imgur.com/a/nw7FAus)

And normal Ultimate level Digimon are stated to have [power equivalent to an incarnation of a God and closest to God's and embody a god-like being](https://imgur.com/a/YegpPrL) and as per GG [they are god-like beings each embodying their own world inside their Digicore](https://imgur.com/a/gO0en5A) and we saw one such world belonging to Canoweissmon and Regulusmon two Perfects and said world [contained multiple universes.](https://imgur.com/a/O8L7B3l)

Dijiangmon [was a weapon created by Boundless to take on Yggdrasil the Host Computer and God of the Digital World pretty much the Digimon equivalent of Rymus from DBS and he has the abillity to indiscriminately destroy all data](https://imgur.com/a/B6ylMCI)

[and it took Shakamon the leader of the Eight Warlords of the Heavenly Emperor and Takutomon together to defeat and seal him and Shakamon is comparable to Erlangmon who fought 4 Royal Knights together in base.](https://imgur.com/a/iWuWdgU)

[Dijiangmon also tanked Seraphimon's Testament who sealed Demon and even Xiangpengmon who helped with dealing with Lilithmon together with a Wargreymon that is Yggdrasil's warrior so not an average one,Shakamon, a newly reborn JESmon and Lianpumon](https://imgur.com/a/b8ePMdP)

is no match for him. Tho it should be noted that Seraphimon said that he wasn't at full power.

[And Seiten Gokuwmon rivals the Eight Warlords of the Heavenly Emperor wich are basically the Digital World Shambhala's version of the Royal Knights.](https://imgur.com/a/1LB7Pan)

[Yihumon said that Base Leviamon is way stronger than Barbamon and SkullGreymon said that he is so big that normal attacks are completely innefective.And when he went X-Antibody Seiten Gokumon was just hiding in the rock crevices and running away,however Yihumon said that Seiten Gokuwmon is just not good at fighting underwater and if it were on land he would have carved Leviamon X into sashimi. Seiten Gokuwmon was easily dodging Leviamon X's attacks and the only reason he didn't bolt was because of Alice,Yihumon,Dijiangmon and SkullGreymon. But they didn't even defeat it,the one who put him to sleep since she has a special power was Alice. And after the fight Seiten Gokuwmon collapses and goes to sleep even though it's not know if it was from Alice's song or the wounds sustained from his fight with Leviamon X though Yihumon did say that he sustained quite a few injuries.](https://imgur.com/a/x8Ets4M)
