Dr. Digmore

Dr. Thomas Digmore (トム Tom) is a character in Fossil Fighters: Frontier.

Profile
A professor who scours the world for ancient relics.

Dr. Digmore is an archaeology professor at Fellings University who loves searching for rare artifacts. Because he is not a very skilled Fighter (something his mother frequently reminds him), he often gets into trouble on his expeditions. He wants to improve his fighting ability, but his lack of self-confidence tends to hold him back.

History
While Dr. Digmore is searching for a relic in Lantern Lake, his Bone Buggy breaks down, leaving him stranded deep in the Dig Site. He sends a distress call to Fossil Park Asia, and Nate and the Hero are dispatched to help him. They arrive just in time to save him from a pair of rogue vivosaurs and repair his Buggy, but he is so shaken by the encounter that he is unable to continue his search and has to ask the Wardens to find the relic for him. The Wardens return to Fossil Park Asia with the relic, a large stone disc resembling a Dino Gear, and give it to him. He decides to call it a Dinodisc and takes it with him to study it further, hoping to publish an article on it in a peer-reviewed journal. Before he leaves, he asks the Hero to be his Paleo Pal so he can learn from them and become a better Fighter.

After Nibbles is lost in the past and Dahlia brings the Player to recover a fossil in an attempt to cheer them up, she notices the recovered fossil is a fossilized Bone Buggy part. This causes the Player to realize the Dinodisc is in fact Nibble's Dino Gear and Dahlia (roughly) drives the Doctor to Professor Little's lab. There he gives up the Dinodisc, so Nibbles can be revived

In the post game, Lucky and Dr. Digmore can be found outside Fossil Park America. When spoken too, Lucky reveals he has gotten a nasty cavity from eating to many sweets. Lucky is afraid of the dentist so he asked Dr. Digmore if he has a way to get rid of the cavity. Dr. Digmore reveals he unearthed an ancient lithograph the describes a method of healing cavities. However, the Doctor is still translating the lithograph and all he knows is what item is needed. Lucky begs the Player to help out and after they do, the Doctor reveals the item they need is a special gem called the Hard Diamond. It is the hardest kind of stone and it can be found in Starry Falls. Lucky can't move without feeling pain and the Doctor stays to translate the lithograph so they stay behind. When the Player returns with the diamond, the Doctor reveals he has finished translating the lithograph and all Lucky needs to do is bite down on the diamond with the infected tooth. This will cause the tooth to break and end the pain, something Lucky is unwilling to do. With his alternate method useless, Lucky will have to go to the dentist but the Player convinces him to think of the drilling sound as something else and it works. Lucky thanks, the Player and becomes a Super Paleo Pal and the Doctor is disappointed that he won't get to see the ancient method, but is impressed with the Player's digging ability and becomes a Super Paleo Pal.
