Tanemon is a Bulb Digimon. It has something that looks like a plant sprout burgeoning from its head. It is a Yuramon that wandered in search of an optimal environment, then settled to the ground and digivolved. Due to its extremely timid personality, if it senses an intruder's presence, it will burrow with the four feet at the base of its body, and completely bury its body portion under the ground. Once it is completely hidden underground, the thing growing from its head assumes the camouflage of a plant, allowing it to defend its body from intruders. However, this is ineffective against herbivorous Digimon.[8]

Digimon Liberator (web novel)
A Tanemon is one of the Digimon who live in a village of Vegetation Digimon in Cross Connectia, with all the residents being below the Champion level. The village is constantly attacked by NPC, who had crossed over from Digimon Liberator with the goal of trapping Digimon in cards so that they can be used by "card holders". This caused the Digimon of that World to fear card holders. When Winr and FunBeemon visit the village, Winr goes to sleep in a nearby stone house whilst FunBeemon talks to the locals. Despite only thirty minutes passing, FunBeemon, having digivolved to QueenBeemon, causes the locals to worship her by fixing their houses and making them medicine whilst digivolved. Since they now loved QueenBeemon, they also loved Winr as well since she had told them about her human partner. When they all go to Winr, they say what had happened and befriend him too — eating food together and doing a festival for QueenBeemon. Floramon explains about the evil card holders, whilst Winr and FunBeemon talk about their journeys with their other human friends. DEBUG.13 Freedom - Part 1 Later that night, the village is attacked by NPC again. They try to force the residents to duel them, but they don't have cards and also don't know how to duel. Winr and FunBeemon realize they don't have time to duel all of them, as the ones they're duelling will just take out the residents, and so have Winr leave to a nearby base with Floramon whilst FunBeemon helps the locals escape. FunBeemon is successful, and arrives at the base too with all the locals with her. Winr is confused when Floramon talks about fighting back, but its words touch his heart when it says that it'll fight even if it's scared as having no home is scarier than fighting. Winr comes up with a plan, and has the local Digimon willing to fight distract the NPC. They would get the NPC to chase them to Winr, who would then defeat them in a duel. This works, and Winr defeats them all one by one. They offer to fix the next damage caused by the NPC, but the locals turn it down as they felt they had already used up enough of Winr and FunBeemon's time — since they needed to find their human friends.
