In their efforts to better understand and defeat the Digimon, Hypnos recruited the computer programmers, the Monster Makers, who originally made the Digimon, attempting to use their knowledge to create a successful anti-Digimon weapon.Īfter the Tamers entered the Digital World, Hypnos' objectives changed: they now sought only to bring the kids home. As time went on, they developed new and better methods of attacking Digimon, but these techniques proved ineffective against the Devas. However, their efforts at first proved unsuccessful. At some point, Mitsuo Yamako became the head of the Hypnos organization who made it his goal in exterminating the Digimon. In addition, Hypnos was tasked with preventing any media leak or information on the existence of the Digimon leading to cover-ups and cover stories. Any Digimon that did manage to cross over into the real world were targeted for capture and study. This discovery greatly changed the organization's goals who began to watch for signs of these Digimon Bio-Emerging into the real world and prevent such incidents.

During their activities, Hypnos discovered the existence of virtual entities that were intelligent and alive that they referred to as "Wild Ones" ( Digimon). Due to its role in violating privacy, its existence was kept secret from the public allowing it to operate with impunity. Hypnos was a government agency that was tasked originally with monitoring electronic communications of half of the Earth as a SIGINT system for the Japanese government.
