If Double was single person...

[Artic_Rival]

Who would Double? Shotaro or Phillip?

I personally think it would be Shotaro, He sorta has that Main Rider feel.

 

[Darkster]

Could you please elaborate on the rules? By default, Philippe wins since he is required to make Double and he can fight on his own. There's Joker too, but I'm not sure on the rules.

 

[Artic_Rival]

Okay, If there was only one person who could become double on his own, without assistance from the other, who would it be?

 

[Ryuutaros]

Shotarou.

Phillip would be his helper that aids him in battle by providing information.

Although Double would not be Double if it was only one person transforming.

I can't vote on this, if it's just one character it's not W. At the end of the day, Philip is Shotaro's Digimon and they are inseparable.

(And sometimes Shotaro is Philip's Digimon... but the metaphor holds up a little better with Philip, obviously.)

I love this example.

It'd defeat the most basic idea of the whole show.

That said I could conceive of a series that followed Shotaro as the main or only Rider. I can kind of see it having a bit of a Big O vibe to it. You could even have Shotaro be a kaizo ningen but he has no memory of it ever happening so in addition to the various cases he solves there is also the bigger mystery of how he became a Rider in the first place and how it's all tied into the ultimate fate of Fuuto itself.

Awesome idea for a show

I would then have to say Shotaro because of Joker. I'm not sure how Digimon has anything to do with anything.
