Is it just Tamers or are there aspects of other Digimon series mixed in?
MrRobot
In doubt there's always the Sun!
I mean if im not mistaken our boss is basically the founder of Datts. So we are also proto-datts

Yeah, that tracks. Most digimon are about child level intelligence with the few who aren't usually being more focused on fighting.

Breaking the Masquerade:
It was a pleasant evening, all things considered, when the phone rang and you were quietly trying to get more work done. But that was nearing the end of the day, and you were not obsessive like others who wanted to work, to overwork.
So you were surprised when it was Roy on the phone. "You're there right Tao?"
You paused. And then studied the tone that was both in fear, awe, and utter terror. So it seemed that today was the day of extremely important, and probably fatal, bad news; because that was how things were going to have to do.
Fuck. "Roy, what's the matter, is the world ending? Are we going to die, is your son alright?" You decided to go down the questions in order of importance. But that was cold comfort. It was going to be one of those days.
Roy only answered. "Did you see the Message Shibumi left us?"
You looked at your computer screen and turned to the Email that he gave you, "I'm sorry Tao, I really am, but we played with toys not meant for mortal men.
They are trying to get out, and there is nothing we can do."
Ahh, the ominous foretelling of doom, betrayal, and loss of a friend all in one fell swoop, how could you forget that? Either Shibumi finally lost his mind to the internet and decided to go insane, or something terrified him enough to play quisling and help them.
Both were ideas that frightened you greatly. And terrified other people with paychecks far larger than yours. "I did, but that just means that we have a target to focus our efforts on."
"Have you had any problems, my house was swarmed by fed an hour ago, and I'm in protective custody." Roy said.
"The others?" You asked.
"Everyone is safe, relatively." He replied. "Though I have one question-"
Then the phone went dead and the kids started crying. You hoped their mother would be calming them down soon.
The door began to knock, then it made you panic. "Mayumi get everyone to the living room now!" Your hands started trembling, as you quietly walked to the door.
The Banging now was growing louder and louder. "Dr. Wong… if you don't want me to blast this door down, and make things very uncomfortable for your wife and children… you will let me in, and we will discuss this matter… peacefully. As civilized men."
You stopped at the door. "What gives me any sort of compulsion to open this door, and you won't kill me?"
"I'm just the middle man, Dr. Wong, I'm just doing what I'm paid to do, and I am going to be paid in full if there are no incidents that leave a trail." The man was calm, and you knew he was going to make things worse if he didn't get what he wanted.
You opened the door to a Chinese man in his thirties, armed, but clearly calm and collected, hiding his clearly murderous intent, his weapons hidden by his long coat and his thick sunglasses. "Glad to see you're a man of at least some intellect. Don't mean to be a bother, but… well, we have a few minutes, before the real job, and well-" He pointed the pistol. "Living room now."
You both walked and your family hid, but they were not crying or sniveling, save for Henry who was… just confused, and Gummymon understood everything as if he already knew what was going on. "Why did you let him in?" He asked.
"Had no choice." You said to the Digimon.
"Chang Wai-San, I don't mean to be a bother, but this is business. Sit down." you sat, and the man looked at your wife. "You have any tea? And don't bother going for the knives or the phone, they are watching." He motioned as two more people walked into the apartment and… well.
They were more intimidating than Chang… and both were armed with concealed weapons that they made known.
You nodded and your wife did as he asked.
"What do you want?" You asked.
"Well, you see, my employers, the men who hired me, who have spent a great deal of money to get you to stop. Or at the very least, not get involved further than you already are." He held out his hands. "See the problem is, you are stepping on the toes of some very powerful people who want this even that you have blown the whistle for, to happen. And to happen without people knowing about it. See where I'm going with this?"
"Was it a foreign government that hired you? The CIA?" You asked.
"Probing for information thinking you can bring it to someone else on the off chance I let anyone escape…" He smiled. "Please, I'm no idiot, and neither are you."
"So am I wanted alive or dead?" You asked.
"Dead, preferably in a gruesome orgy of violence, and domestic disturbance gone wrong, we're really good at that sort of thing. Yet the problem is, they want you alive… in a coma maybe, but alive." He smiled. "But there is the kicker. That little thing, and your kid… is wanted alive, so there is a trade we want to make. The kid, and his little monster, for your family's life. What's it going to be?"
"The information I have is just as valuable as a living specimen."
"I resent that comment," Gummymon said.
"True… did that thing just talk?" He said, flabber gasted.
"Yes." the Digimon and Henry said in stereo.
"So, let's make a deal." He said quickly looking to his companions. "But be quick, they get board easily."
What do you say? (Note, this will lead to the aforementioned other omake. It just changes the context of it.)

Well...
At least they are in good company.
And....
Things are going to go
Well...
Looks like 1991 is when everything gets crazy, and some group, possibly from china wants the event to cause maximum chaos and to have the information to be able to navigate through the event.
Edit: Specifically December, roughly 7/6 months from the current point in quest.

Oh don't worry every year has an apocolyptic event you have to deal with.
This one is just one you can directly stop.

There and Back Again:
"Mr. Chang, we're both reasonable men here, so I'll be brief, They don't want me dead, they want me working for them, and you know this, that's why you haven't tried to kill me yet...because you're wondering what you can get out of me before you get your payout of them. It's a smart decision.
You remind me of a more unscrupulous version of my Superior ...so I can guess you're a former cop, likely a dirty one given your current profession."
Your wife quietly brought the tea and set it down on the table and she took your place beside you, and she whispered. "What are you doing?"
"Buying time." You handed the digivice in your pocket over to your son, and he started pressing the buttons on there trying to make them work.
They did not see anything, but you didn't know for certain.
"You seem to think you know me?"
"I may not know you, but I know of men like you they are all around me. Those that seek nothing but power and to hurt people for any sense of sick pleasure and enjoyment, or profit."
You continued. "But we're getting off-topic here...you want my son, which is something I cannot allow even if you weren't here to assassinate me, so I see that you have two options, Take my son by force and become the most wanted man in Japan, and likely have the full force of Japan's intelligence apparatus on you like a curse...or take me, and get whatever you want out of me by torture or any method you may choose. The Digimon will fight you anyway to protect him...and well, I'm not certain that we want to find out what they can do to the human body."
"I'll take my chances." Chang seemed to hesitate when he said those words, but you noticed, and you smiled.
"I'm the one who designed them. They are meant to fight, to evolve and to kill." you said, as everyone shuddered. "You really want to take that chance?"
You then saw the two fellows buckle. You had your chance.
"But there is a third option, hostages and ransom, you get the best of both worlds, you get my information and leverage over me, and my family's lives are spared from your wrath. Until you are paid, or have enough information to sell and live like a king after you disappear. You have options beyond what you've been given."
"The only answer left to ponder now that you are well aware of all your options; is what to choose."
Then the digivice glowed. "Dad!" Your son screamed.
And then your family fell into a portal, and everything went bright.

When you could see again, you were on a grid… a green grid that was filled with binary code.
It was beautiful, and you knew what this was, the digital barrier. The thing that protected the human world and the digital one…
You could read it, and see it develop and evolve in real time, keeping the monsters at bay.
And you were standing on solid ground like it knew you were there and was compensating for you.
But you turned back to see your family, holding onto each other as you saw the other assassins and Chang running away, being chased by digimon.
"Hi, so you pressed the Emergency Contact button… Knew it was a good idea to put that in. Everyone needs a helping hand, and the kid is a trainee." You were talking to a dinosaur… animal. Thing. It was a digimon and this was first contact on their terms.
"Um, hi?" You said. Wait, that was the Digimon Roy's son made all those years ago, the first one… The Alpha, at least it looked like it… no the eyes were the same, but not the beast. "Who are you?"
"The Better question my friend is, how can I help you? You are in a jam, and I'm the only way you can get your family out, now listen to me carefully, I am not going to repeat myself. Press the button twice, and hold on tight. It's a long fall to the Digital World! And If you're not ready, you might break something!"
"Wait, what about them?" You asked.
"I'll send them back to earth, you are the one with the Tamer?" He said. "You got a big family."
"Uh, Henry-" You stammered.
"Ah, so he does have a name. Gummymon made a bet that he was named Steve." The digimon then smiled. "Shows what he knows. Uh, grab onto each other."
You all grabbed each other tight, and then there was a fast sensation, as if you were falling, and then, you were not.
You were standing on an island with a house and a fire? Above a giant portal. "Ah, there we are, we can sit in peace."
The digimon waddled away and sat next to the campfire, where you noticed there was a few chairs and some logs. "You coming? It's almost time for lunch."
Lunch? it was evening, had time passed?
You were at a loss for words but you marched forward, your family following close behind. "Do you have a name?"
"Dorumon," The Digimon said as he sat, looking at the pot and burping. "Though I had a cooler name once before I forgot."
"How did you forget?" You asked.
"I don't know, I remember a splitting headache and an ax in my head, and than poof. I became small again, with a jewel in my head." The digimon said.
You then gathered yourself and took a breath. "Where are we?"
"My bachelor pad." He said.
You saw the architecture. A beautiful American-style log cabin. With…plumbing? Basic plumbing but, it had running water? In the Spanish style you had seen in old Spanish colonies. He was smart. You think?
As everyone sat down, to decompress, you asked. "What the hell happened?"
"Someone pressed the help button, and I was on shift." The digimon stated, as Gummymon then jumped around the fire.
"Hah, you're the only one on shift. Watcher of the Gates!"
"I have a cooler name than that you little-" He then realized who he was around. "I hate you."
"What is going on?"
Duromon just waved his tail around. "Well let's see, your son opened the digiport using his device. It was small, but it was enough to make a substantial dent in the Barrier. But it was instantaneous and repaired immediately. But those humans who didn't have a digivice are going to have to fight their way out."
"They are going to die?" You asked.
"I don't know, never happened before, and it's not my problem, that's for the top brass to deal with, not me." The digimon replied as he smelled the soup. "Uh, little help? My arms are a little-"
Your wife then served the soup and everyone began eating.
"You must have a lot of questions going around, I mean, really, who wouldn't… but be quick, I have to take you back when it's safe."
You have an opportunity to ask 3 questions to the Watcher of the Gate, Duromon.
What do you ask?:

"Mr. Chang, we're both reasonable men here, so I'll be brief, They don't want me dead, they want me working for them, and you know this, that's why you haven't tried to kill me yet...because you're wondering what you can get out of me before you get your payout of them. It's a smart decision.
You remind me of a more unscrupulous version of my Superior ...so I can guess you're a former cop, likely a dirty one given your current profession."
Your wife quietly brought the tea and set it down on the table and she took your place beside you, and she whispered. "What are you doing?"
"Buying time." You handed the digivice in your pocket over to your son, and he started pressing the buttons on there trying to make them work.
They did not see anything, but you didn't know for certain.
"You seem to think you know me?"
"I may not know you, but I know of men like you they are all around me. Those that seek nothing but power and to hurt people for any sense of sick pleasure and enjoyment, or profit."
You continued. "But we're getting off-topic here...you want my son, which is something I cannot allow even if you weren't here to assassinate me, so I see that you have two options, Take my son by force and become the most wanted man in Japan, and likely have the full force of Japan's intelligence apparatus on you like a curse...or take me, and get whatever you want out of me by torture or any method you may choose. The Digimon will fight you anyway to protect him...and well, I'm not certain that we want to find out what they can do to the human body."
"I'll take my chances." Chang seemed to hesitate when he said those words, but you noticed, and you smiled.
"I'm the one who designed them. They are meant to fight, to evolve and to kill." you said, as everyone shuddered. "You really want to take that chance?"
You then saw the two fellows buckle. You had your chance.
"But there is a third option, hostages and ransom, you get the best of both worlds, you get my information and leverage over me, and my family's lives are spared from your wrath. Until you are paid, or have enough information to sell and live like a king after you disappear. You have options beyond what you've been given."
"The only answer left to ponder now that you are well aware of all your options; is what to choose."
Then the digivice glowed. "Dad!" Your son screamed.
And then your family fell into a portal, and everything went bright.
