Because of the countless discussion on "who has the better bracelt?" but it seems as though Shugo doesn't have to, because how much it would delay the anime.

Well, maybe he does use them and we're not shown it. There are many possibilities.

You see, I have a problem with that too, y'see, I read all three of the Manga's and in those, Shugo does need to use the virus core, and Balmung gives it to him after a battle. But, the Anime goes on longer and has so many new episodes in it, that arent in the Manga, that I had to quit watching it because it got me lost, and it just wasnt any good anymore...They should've kept it a Manga... :x

Most people agree that the manga's the canon story for Legend of the Twilight, so Shugo does need to use virus cores, they just removed it from the anime to save time. =/
My sound and fury signify nothing.

Yes, shugo just ignores them in the show and gets them in the manga... a bit more lazy than Kite if you ask me...
