Was it a Giga Pet? Was that what they were called?

Googling that, it doesn't look like it. The first one I mentioned was completely rectangular, not an odd shape. It's the Bandai Digimon toy.

The second one I think may have been Scannerz, which I'm guessing used the same connector as the Digimon toy just because it was what was available. But it's possible (at an outside chance) that I'm misremembering and it was the D-Scanner, a Digimon-branded equivalent to Scannerz. No useful data was being transferred when connecting the two together, just power.

A third possibility is that there was some third toy I'm forgetting about which is what I was able to connect to the Digimon toy to power it.

They had brand name Digimon digital pets. Giga pets were just poor-kid Tamagotchis. I had the alien one. https://wikimon.net/Digital_Monster_Ver._1
