This is a timeline of events related to the Digi-Battle card game. Some dates are speculations but I'm pretty sure they're close enough. It's sad to see but the original Digi-Battle cards seem to have only been released for a single year. If you can pinpoint more specific dates or if any of the below information is incorrect then please correct me.
Dates are in format day/month/year and when a specific date is not known it is substituted with "00".
