Digimon Adventure 02 (デジモンアドベンチャー02, Dejimon Adobenchā Zero Tsū?), commonly referred to as Digimon 02 and known as the second season of Digimon: Digital Monsters outside Japan, is a children's television anime series produced by Toei Animation. It is the second series in the Digimon franchise, which takes place three years (four years in the English dub) following the events of the previous season, Digimon Adventure. In the series, a new team of DigiDestined is assembled, including the two youngest protagonists of the previous season, to save the Digital World from a boy who names himself the "Digimon Emperor" and intends to conquer it. It aired in Japan between April 2, 2000, and March 25, 2001.

An English language dub, produced by Saban Entertainment, aired in North America between August 19, 2000 and May 19, 2001. While succeeded by Digimon Tamers, which takes place in another continuity, the story continues in Digimon Adventure tri..

Taking place 3 years (4 years in the dub) after Digimon Adventure, the Digital World comes under attack from a mysterious human calling himself the Digimon Emperor who is enslaving Digimon with his Dark Rings while building Control Spires that negate Digivolution and act as relays to transmit power to the Dark Rings. To fight him three new Digi-destined are gathered: Davis, Yolei and Cody. They each gain an ancient Digimon for a partner: Veemon, Hawkmon and Armadillomon. The three, along with the now teenage T.K and Kari, each possess a new type of Digivice called a D3 that allows them to open a gate to be transported to the Digital World through any computer. They are also given D-Terminals that hold Crest-themed Digi-Egg-like relics (DigiMentals in Japanese) that allow their Digimon partners to undergo a pseudo-form of Digivolution, Armor Digivolution, to counter the presence of Control Spires. The Digimon Emperor is eventually revealed to be the boy genius Ken Ichijouji, who flees to the Digital World before the Digidestined can confront him at his home. Assisted by Ken's partner Wormmon, who sacrifices himself for his partner's good, the Digidestined defeat Kimeramon, Ken's creation, and have Ken realize his error in believing that the Digital World and Digimon were just part of a game.
