I always thought the some Digimon were one of a kind but I suppose that probably isn't so.

I thought the same but I don't actually know that much about the digimon mythos, I haven't kept up with it in many many years.

Impmon turned out okay in the end.

Gatomon or Meowth. Which do I need in my life more. Almost 20 years later, still the hardest choice.

Haha I'm in love with this! Thanks

I dunno, digimon themselves struck me more like they had self-awareness while pokemon were more animal like and lacked that concept (Meowth being the exception as well as Mewtwo), plus the villians were most likely virus types, which would explain their innate evilness.

True, but there are also non-villainous Virus-types (Wormmon and Guilmon being examples) and at least one non-Virus villain (MetalSeadramon) who gets as much complexity as the most of the other villains in Adventure.

Well, like I said, digimon seem to have a sense of self-awareness that pokemon don't have, so what they align with is up to them.

Yeah, same. The fundamental difference really was that Digimon were more self-aware, and able to make choices. And some of their storylines were pretty great. Remember DarkWarGreymon?
Most Pokemon, like you said, are basically animals.

You could also consider, that since Salamon can evolve into Gatomon and Black Gatomon, it does imply that there was a bit of a choice for a LadyDevimon, if she's evil. She might have chosen that evolution...

Even Ekans said on the episode they (Satoshi's Pokemon plus Team Rocket's) get lost in an island "Pokémon do bad things because master bad". So they'll do anything as long the master says so.

The games and manga had a lot of stereotypically "bad" digimon as good guys, and "good" digimon as bad guys. The anime tended to be on the nose about certain Digimon though; if it had Myotismon/Vamdemon in its name, it's gonna be a bad guy.

I for one love the Myotismon in Digimon World, and even the game sets him up like he's going to be a bad guy. He never attacks you outside of the "for fun" Arena tournaments, and he's simply trying to research certain kinds of evolution. His troops (Virus digimon) only attack you because of the real villain of the game's influence on them. Even the lone Bakemon floating outside of his mansion never tries to hurt you; he'll quickly join your side if you just talk to him (while "good" Digimon like Agumon, Gabumon, and even Patamon attack you before deciding you're good).

Also his invisible chair sitting game is amazing.
