Scoring Criteria:

Writing: 3
Percentage Score: 22% - A Failing Grade
Comments:
My first question... Is this Cody's partner Armadillomon, or a separate character? Indications point to the latter, but characterization, where it does exist, points towards the former. Now feedack...
Plot: What plot? Thinner than DV85 in "The Break Up", this is practically a pure PWP with the only indication of plot being "Izzy is missing!" which is just vague enough to fool some sheep into thinking there's a plot. And just little enough to still qualify as a PWP.
Chaaracterization: Fun, fun, fun. No, seriously, we only know this is Izzy's partner Tentomon from the text. Armadillomon might be halfway in character if he remained ponderous over the story, and Izzy is about as one-dimensional as the pixels you're reading this on. Character is thrown to the roadside to make a quick sex fic, which happens far too often.
Semantics: Spelling is flawless. Punctuation and spacing are bigger concerns. Basic rules of thumb:
