THE ORIGINAL DIGIDESTINEDS;
Since Digimon Adventure 02 is a continuation of Digimon Adventure it includes characters from that series as well. Though burdened by their new found responsibilities, the previous DigiDestined team provides a helping hand once in a while.
Taichi "Tai" Kamiya (Yagami Taichi): He was the leader of the previous DigiDestined and Kari's older brother. He attends high school. He gave Davis his goggles to replace Davis' pair, which was wrecked in a battle.
Yamato "Matt" Ishida (Ishida Yamato): T.K.'s older brother, he attends high school. He has his own band, the Teenage Wolves. Davis's sister had a not-so-secret crush on him.
Sora Takenouchi (Takenouchi Sora): Attending high school, she joins the tennis team.
Koushiro "Izzy" Izumi (Izumi Koushiro): Very smart and a logical thinker, he helps the new team more than the others of the old guard, possibly due to the fact that he is the youngest former DigiDestined.
Mimi Tachikawa (Tachikawa Mimi): Currently lives in New York and visits the others any chance she gets via airplane or DigiPort.
Joe Kido (Kido Jyou): Due to his studying, Joe attends a private school. He's now studying for a college entrance exam and uses his free time to help the others when possible.
