I have 9 cards in my trash and a Digimon with this card as a digivolution card is deleted in battle. The deleted cards, including this one, are sent to my trash, and now I have over 10 cards in my trash. Does <Retaliation> in this card's inherited effects activate and delete my opponent's Digimon it battled?

No. You didn't have 10 cards in your trash until after the deletion already took place, so this Digimon's inherited effect could not be active at the time of the deletion.
