It's a hatching day in Primary Village! What new friends will hatch today?
baby Digimon Lucy meets the world
Hip, hop, hippity hop. Hippity hop and you just can't stop.
They can easily continue practicing this way for a good while. Tokomon will get much better control of its body and jumps, and everyone else will see some effect too - the two smaller blobs more in their jumping power, the two flying ones more in their finesse.
Eventually the white, fuzzy blob will be hungry.

Budmon can indeed show it to the Good Fruits! ...Which seem to have gotten quite popular. A few of the plants have no berries left, and the ones with berries are crowded enough that she'd have to squeeze in if she wanted any.
...She cannot squeeze in, she might poke someone with one of her sharp parts. The white, fuzzy blob has no sharp parts, though! She can fetch it some High Orbs! That will presumably not taste like thorns to it because it does not have any.
It investigates the orbs, finds them much tastier than grass, and sets to eating them by halves. "Bo-ota!," it says, in gratitude.
She watches it carefully to make sure it doesn't fall or she is there to catch it (with her leaf) if it does, and starts eating Good Fruit leaves on one of the plants that has had all the Fruits eaten off so people aren't crowding it.
With use of its limbs, ears, hops, and teeth, Tokomon is able to make it up onto a crosspiece with hardly any falling.
Whoah.
...
Where...does food go...once it is not in your mouth anymore???
She eats another Good Leaf as she contemplates this.
d-d-d-digimon
This leaf tastes, recursively, like going back for a second Good Fruit. (But not like the fruit itself.) It has no insights to share on the ultimate destination thereof.
While she's feeling contemplative, she might check her stats again.

...Nyokimon is what she was before she changed, and Budmon is what she is now, but what are Lalamon and Piyomon?
Leaf wing is probably using her leaf or leaves to hop higher. She doesn't like the sound of Poison Thorns. What happens if she slaps the ground with her leaf?
d-d-d-digimon
She can hit exactly where she means to, and if she likes she can hit with more force than her leaf ought to have, perhaps even as much as hopping bodily (but without the thorns).
d-d-d-digimon
She can indeed now launch herself off the ground and into the air by pushing off with her leaf! As a projectile she's still just as thorny, of course - her leaf is still her thorn-free part.
d-d-d-digimon
She can absorb the impact of landing with it, yes! She can't balance on it or support herself on it for more than a few moments, yet, but that might yield to practice.
She considers this, decides that practice can wait until eating time is done, and then decides to see what happens if she eats two Good Fruit leaves at once.
d-d-d-digimon
Together, the two leaves taste like a more abstracted feeling of sharing her grass with someone.
d-d-d-digimon
Speaking of eating time, now that she's feeling more vertically confident maybe she'll want to use that to get at some less-crowded fruits?
This tree, for example, has fruits of a similar red but much bigger; while it's too tall to straightforwardly climb, some of the fruits hang down close to the ground.
d-d-d-digimon
With her leaf-assisted jumping, she has no trouble hopping as high as the closest one. Biting it off might require a little planning: it's nearly as big as she is, and her mouth doesn't seem to stretch as wide as Tokomon's.
