Implicating guilmon -> scalie.

Reason: Guilmon is unfurred and draconic, hence scalie.

Characters can be recognizeably drawn as other species which might not be scaley.

Aren't digimon technically species rather than characters? Guilmon lists itself as a species tag rather than a character tag. Same for gabumon, which is a better example, since some of the gabumon depicted are clearly not the character. The species guilmon would always be scalie.
