Forbidden

Forbidden Status only exists in Advanced Format, since Traditional Format does not possess a Forbidden List. When a card is Forbidden, no cards of that name can be used in your Main Deck, Side Deck or Fusion Deck.

Japan also uses the Forbidden List.

As of March 1st, 2007, these cards are Forbidden in Advanced Format:
