Leomon went face-to-face with his rival, Ogremon, he was infected by Devimon's Touch of Evil, turning him evil. Luckily Tai and Matt raised their Digivices and released the Black Gears from Leomon's body, returning him to normal.
Later, he returned as SaberLeomon to rescue Mimi and Joe from MetalEtemon. He challenged MetalEtemon to a battle as SaberLeomon, but was fatally wounded by MetalEtemon's attack. Using the last ounce of his strength, SaberLeomon pierced through MetalEtemon's damaged armor (which was punctured by Zudomon's Vulcan Hammer attack). In his dying breath, Leomon said that he will be reborn in Primary Village and hopes to greet Ogremon once more now as allies instead of enemies.
