My favorite moment is probably in Tamers, when Beelzebumon tries desperately to free Juri from the Kernel Sphere. I just loved hearing Takahashi Hiroshi constantly cursing in that tough guy voice of his, "Yuukan ni Tachimukau zo!!" playing in the background, and Juri slowly coming out of her depression to realize that Beelzebumon is helping her. Beelzebumon leans his fist against the sphere, out of breath, and you could tell he's p*ssed in the way he pants. He yells out his need for more power, Juri begs Beelzebumon to save her before seeing the resemblance in Leomon, the music stops, and Beelzebumon prepares to strike. "Juu.... Ou.... KEN!!!" Ka-boom! Yeah, that was one sweet scene that I've rewatched god knows how many times.
I also liked Dukemon turning into Crimson Mode in the series. It was nice hearing Grani talk for the first, and last, time, showing his gratitude to Guilmon for being the only one to treat him like a living being. Plus, One Vision's such a kickass song, it makes practically any scene it's used in automatically skyrocket to the upper-ranks of preference.... oh, that does it. I'm claiming that song in the anime song-claiming thread.

I hate to say this (not really) , but unlike Pokemon, one form of Digimon don't have to look like the form his/her digivolution form, take Zudomon for example, he digivolves into a MarineAngemon:
Zudomon (sea animal) ---> MarineAngemon (angel)
And I disagree, good Digimon don't digivolve to an evil one, Bandal is just making evolution lines that are really crappy, they make really lousy dubs too.
There's evidence in the Japanese D-Terminal and Wonderswan games which say that, should Jou's Gomamon have reached the Ultimate level, he'd have evolved into Plesiomon, no Marine Angemon. 'Course, evolution lines vary all the time throughout all the different mediums (especially the card game), but just letting you know that Zudomon>Marine Angemon is less official than you think. Personally, I always thought a fitting line for Marine Angemon would be Penmon>Rukamon>Whamon>Marine Angemon (which is another example of evolution lines going through all sorts of changes).
And there's really no such thing as one Digimon species being good or evil. There are Vaccine, Data, and Virus, this is true, and it has been shown that Virus specimens are more likely to be corrupt than Vaccines or Datas, but first off, actions of an individual do not reflect actions of a group. This was proven when we've seen foreign Chosen Children take control of common antagonistic Digimon from the past, like Seadramon, Snimon, and Kuwagamon to name a few, and Vamdemon is actually a kind-hearted aristocrat (though a bit of a mad scientist) when he debuts in the game Digimon World (which came out in Japan well before the anime). Hell, the fact that the main character of Tamers has a Virus for a Partner, which remains viral even upon evolving into a holy knight, oughta emphasize this fact. Second off, Digimon has a number of 3D characters who can go through a number of changes in their development, and corrupted Digimon (even the viral ones) are no exception, as we've seen with Ogremon, Impmon/Beelzebumon, Tailmon, Wormmon (to be fair, he only remained loyal to Ken, who was really the corrupt character that ended up changing), and several others.
