- ―Transformation announcement
D-Tamer WereGaruru is Mako's main Ultimate form, activated when she inserts WereGarurumon's DigiCard into her DigiDrive.
In this form, D-Tamer WereGaruru has stronger offensive & defensive power, as well as developing a tactical nature.

- ―Transformation announcement
D-Tamer ZeedGaruru is an alternate Ultra form Mako can assume whenever she inserts ZeedGarurumon's DigiCard into her DigiDrive.
