So I guess I'm not the only one around here who likes to get into technicals about a kiddie show -- earlier this week, I also discussed it with my brother (whom, if I find at this site, will be in for some serious shit), who did agree that a sort of Slide Evolution would, in theory, be possible for an Armor or Jogressed Digimon, based on the same principles as it was used in Frontier, wherein the data is changed while not requiring a change in the power level, essentially a "balance" thing, like with the yin and yang.
With this Yin and Yang balance, a Jogress can be easily compared to "dominance" and "submission". In general, if a Digimon possesses enough "power to evolve", it will. Therefore, if a Jogress is determined by the "dominant" force, then the "submissive" force in the Jogress becomes the "power to evolve", allowing the "dominant" force to reach it's natural next state. However, because of the balance, if the "submissive" force begins to resist, the balance is disrupted, unless the "dominant" slackens, if this happen, to the degree that the "dominant" force becomes the "submissive" and vice versa, then a "slide" evolution would occur, with the new "dominant" force being reflected.
