He's mostly here as a punching bag if anyone gets the chance.
Name:
Professor Akihiro Kurata
Nicknames:
Hitlermon (by everyone who hates him. It's rather accurate.)
Age:
48
Gender:
Male
World:
Digi-Earth (Savers), now resides on Poke-Earth
Residence:
Unknown
Occupation:
Mad Scientist
Partner:
None, formerly Belphemon
Team/Forms:
None
Weaknesses:
* A huge coward. As Blackadder once said, "When the going gets tough, the tough hide under the table." Without anything to defend him, he will run away from fights immediately and without hesitation. Also lacks any kind of self-defense skill.
* Can also become very overconfident, as typical of villains.
Personality:
Kurata tries to be polite amongst others, and tries to make his superiors look good, he's really a smug, condensing jerk with delusions of grandeur. A coward by nature, he prefers to let others do the fighting for him. His heart is cold as ice - murder is something he will shrug off, and he even mocks those who grieve for their loved ones, such as Merukimon's death, mocking Ikuto's sadness. But his ultimate ambition is power, believing that as the true saviour of the world, he is its only rightful ruler.
In short - he's a complete monster, only his appearance giving him any right to call himself 'human'. He's far worse than even Myotismon in terms of sheer evil, and that speaks volumes.
Likes:
* Power
* Killing and subjugating mons
* Screwing with Digimon and Pokémon DNA to make new (and, to other people, horrifying) creations
Dislikes:
* Digimon AND Pokémon (he sees Pokémon as just as much as threat to humanity as Digimon are)
* The Damon family
* DATS
* Those who disagree with his views on mons in general

History:
Ten years before the start of the adventures of DATS, Kurata was a member of the Digital World exploration party, whose task was to investigate the Digital World, as well as search for the lost son of Kenji and Misuzu Noguchi, Ikuto "Keenan" Noguchi. In the Digital World, Kurata reacted with nothing but fear towards the strange monsters that appeared before them like Lynxmon and Ikkakumon, a fact that he was chastized for by another member of the expedition, Suguru "Spencer" Damon.
Eventually, the group became terrorized by SaberLeomon, who chased them to an area of the Digital World that would become known as the Infinity Ice Ridge. There, the frightened Kurata used a sort of make-shift bomb to escape to open a portal to the real world, which he and the rest of the expedition used to escape to the human world while Suguru held SaberLeomon.
His experiences in the Digital World left a lasting effect on Kurata - his fear of them apparently led him to decide that Digimon were a menace and threat to humanity. So, while Suguru negotiated an alliance with the powerful Digimon, Merukimon, Kurata worked to invade the Digital World, resulting in the creation of his own Digimon: Gizumon, a Digimon without a soul created from Kurata's experiments on other Digimon.
Kurata led an attack force into the Digital World, and used his Gizumon to ravage the Digital World and exterminate as many Digimon as possible. With the Gizumon's ability to permanently delete a Digimon, these actions resulted in the very permanent death of many Digimon, including Ikuto's guardian, Frigimon. Merukimon intervened, believing Spencer and the humans had betrayed him, forcing the fearful Kurata to again escape to the Real World.
Kurata did not factor into the events of the DATS team again (at least, in a manner that was not unseen) until the Digimon Gotsumon led SaberLeomon's army of Boarmon and Pteramon into the real world. Kurata used a massive Digital Gate to return the Boarmon and Pteramon back to their world. After this, Kurata revealed himself to the members of DATS, attempting to pass himself off as an ally. When SaberLeomon himself came to the Human World, Kurata used one of his Gizumon to ensure the Digimon would be permanently deleted. Though others suspected him, only his former expedition member, Commander Satsuma, had a true inkling of what Kurata was planning.
After this, Kurata went with the members of DATS, who intended to permanently settle matters with Merukimon. However, once there, Merukimon revealed that Kurata had been responsible for the massacre in the Digital World years before - a fact revealed to the DATS team and Ikuto (who had been raised by Merukimon and had befriended Marcus and the others). Kurata turned the tables on them, and used Gizumon AT (which later turned into Gizumon XT) to fatally wound Merukimon. The group fought back, but it was only when Merukimon used the last of his strength to damage Gizumon XT that they were able to turn the tide. Ikuto managed to help his partner Falcomon Digivolve into Crowmon, who obliterated Gizumon XT. Kurata escaped again.
In the Real World, Kurata tricked the Confidentiality Ministry, headed by Chief Hashiba, that Marcus and the other members of DATS were traitors. Through this, he had most of the group's memories erased, and had Ikuto, Satsuma, and all other members of the DATS branch imprisoned. However, thanks to their partners, Marcus, Thomas H. Norstein, and Yoshino Fujieda manage to recover their memories just as Kurata sent a Gizumon AT toward them. Undeterred from that defeat, Kurata blew up the DATS building, and with Gizumon XT, escaped to the Digital World, in order to put his plans for genocide into motion. He sent Kouki, Ivan, and Nanami (the same ones that defeated Crowmon) to deal with Marcus, Thomas, and Yoshino whom they ran afoul of. When it came to the Holy Capital invasion, Kurata gave his human henchmen an upgrade to their forms.
He planted Digital Gates that brought ElDradimon to the Real World to cause panic to give him control of the military. He had the Gizmon merge with a missile to destroy ElDradimon. Kurata got Thomas on his side promising that he will cure Thomas's sister; the cure involved performing surgery on Relena to fuse her with Digimon data, thus turning her into Digimon-human hybrid. In addition, to ensure Thomas would not betray him he secretly had planted before a bomb device inside Relena's necklace. He later revealed to Thomas the Digimon Belphemon in his Sleep Mode and how he found his Digi-Egg and was using the deleted Digimon data to revive him. He plans to use the Digimon Demon Lord not only to subjugate the other Digimon and the Digital World and destroy at his leisure, but for his bid to rule the human world as well.
When Thomas breaks the Digimon Control Device, he refuses to join Kurata's side and betrays him. Enraged, Kurata merges with Belphemon by transforming himself into a DigiSoul and transmitting into the beast, becoming his Rage Mode. He later temporarily loses control of the Demon Lord, regaining control when his face appears on Belphemon's chest. Kurata and Belphemon then drain the city's electricity and swallow the space-oscillation bombs, causing Belphemon to grow and gain the power to rip holes between the Real and Digital Worlds using dark energy. Marcus and ShineGreymon are able to destroy Belphemon when ShineGreymon digivolves to its Burst Mode, and Kurata is returned to human form. Furious, he sets off a space-oscillation bomb to destroy the Digital World, but instead aggravates the tears between the Real and Digital World. He was then shocked for what he had done as this is not what he had planned at all. As he floated helplessly into the tears between the worlds, he then vanished into an explosion of bright light.
Memories of every atrocity, misdeed and cold-hearted action committed by Kurata himself remain. Despite his downfall, he leaves behind a foul legacy of sorts that haunts everything for the remainder of the series. Because of his ruthless Digimon genocide, Spencer suffers, as well as sparking the conflict with the Royal Knights and Yggdrasil later on. Ultimately, his reckless handiwork left both the human and Digital World close on the verge of total destruction.
However, Kurata had survived his defeat, only to be cursed by ending up in a world with creatures similar to Digimon, and said creatures co-existed with humans, as well... To him, this would not do at all.
Anything else? (Optional)
Catch-Phrase: "It's showtime!"
I might throw in the Gizumon stats as well, if we're bringing those things back.
