To '''Detach''' is to [[send]] an [[Xyz Material]] attached to an [[Xyz Monster]] to the [[Graveyard]]. Often, this must be done in order to [[activate]] the [[effect]] of the Xyz Monster, though it can also be done as a [[cost]] for certain other cards or as part of an effect.

Detach is an act of moving Xyz Material attached to an Xyz Monster, normally to the Graveyard.

Xyz Material can be detached either by a card effect or cost that use the word "detach" as a term of this act.

When a Xyz Material is detached, it is sent to the Graveyard as a result, unless an effect says otherwise.
