Biography
Taichi Yagami (Japanese: 八神 太一, Hepburn: Yagami Taichi) was the first and oldest child of Susumu Kamiya and Yuuko Kamiya. Later on, his parents had another child who was Tai's younger sister named Kari Kamiya. During this time, they came to live in Highton View Terrace where they had a pet cat that they named Miko. One day, he and Kari received a Digi-Egg, which eventually hatches into Botamon. Botamon digivolves quickly to Koromon, becoming their first experience with Digimon. Both Tai and Kari become friends with Koromon before he digivolves into BigAgumon and took Kari on a ride, whilst Tai desperately followed them. Agumon digivolved to RedGreymon to protect them from Parrotmon at Highton View Terrace, though he was beaten. Using Kari's whistle, Tai managed to revive RedGreymon long enough for both him and Parrotmon to destroy each other. This event was notable as it lead to Tai, as well as Kari, being chosen as one of the DigiDestined. Once when Kari was 4/5 years old, she got pneumonia with Tai not realizing the severity of her illness and taking her outside to play. Upon finding out, his mother got upset and came to slap Tai on the face for how reckless he had been with his sister. This event was noted to had been a particularly painful memory in his life.
When attending summer camp, it begins to snow. Tai, along with Matt, Sora, Izzy, Mimi Tachikawa, Joe Kido, and Takeru "T.K." Takaishi, find devices hurtling out of the sky, which they would later find to be called Digivices. All seven are then swept into the Digital World. Tai awakens to find Koromon sitting on him. Not remembering his previous encounter with Koromon, he freaks out but eventually comes to trust Koromon, and the two become friends and partners. After meeting up with Izzy, Tai goes up a tree to get their bearings but finds that he doesn't know where they are. Joining his fellow campers, each of whom have their own partners, they are attacked by Kuwagamon and their Digimon digivolve to Rookie, his Koromon to Agumon. Their efforts, however, result in them being thrown off a cliff, though Gomamon saves them. When Shellmon attacks as they rest at a beach, only Agumon's attacks work as he was the only one to eat, though he doesn't fare well. In order to help, Tai decides to provide a distraction and is caught while doing so. The rush of anger and protectiveness that Agumon feels spurs his Digivolution into the Champion form Greymon, who defeats Shellmon.
