"Champion vs. Creator, Part 1", known as "Save Mokuba! Kaiba vs. Pegasus" in the Japanese version, is the twenty-sixth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! second series anime. It first aired in Japan on October 17, 2000 and in the United States on May 18, 2002.

As per their agreement, since Seto Kaiba defeated Yugi Muto, he now faces off against Maximillion Pegasus, for the fate of Mokuba's soul.

Summary

Yugi, Mai, and Joey have enough Star Chips to enter Pegasus' Castle. But Kemo will not allow Tea, Tristan or Bakura in because they are not even Duelists. However, when Mai distracts him using her feminine wiles, they are able to sneak in. They head onto the main balcony, where they meet up with Bandit Keith. Croquet comes in and greets the Duelists telling them there will be an exhibition match for them between Seto Kaiba and Maximillion Pegasus. Kaiba wants Pegasus to Duel with his Duel Disks but Pegasus says if they use them, Mokuba will operate his for him. Kaiba, not wanting to Duel his own little brother, decides to Duel in a normal Duel Arena instead. The Duel starts with Pegasus toying with Seto, allowing him to destroy his first few monsters. Right when Kaiba tries to summon his "Blue-Eyes", Pegasus activates "Prophecy" in response, and, thanks to his Millennium Eye, Pegasus is able to correctly guess the card Kaiba was about to summon. Kaiba is forced to give Pegasus his "Blue-Eyes White Dragon". Kaiba wonders how Pegasus knew what card he was going to play before he can play it. Without that card in his hand, Kaiba is forced to switch his "Rude Kaiser" into Defense Position. Kaiba then tries to use his "Crush Card" and "Saggi the Dark Clown" combo on Pegasus to destroy all monsters in Pegasus' Deck that have at least 1500 ATK (Yugi and his friends note that this is the same combo Kaiba used on Pegasus' castle, but Yugi claims Pegasus knows it's coming), but Pegasus activates "Negative Energy" to stop Kaiba from using his "Crush Card", pushing Kaiba into a corner.

Featured Duel: Seto Kaiba vs. Maximillion Pegasus

Turn 1: Pegasus
Pegasus Sets 1 monster and sets 1 card.

Turn 2: Kaiba
Kaiba draws. Kaiba's hand contains "Ryu-Kishin Powered", "Blue-Eyes White Dragon", "Rude Kaiser", "Crush Card", and "Saggi the Dark Clown". Kaiba then Sets 1 card and Normal Summons "Rude Kaiser" (1800/1600) in Attack Position. "Rude Kaiser" attacks and destroys Pegasus's Set monster. It's revealed to be "Toon Alligator" (800/1600).

Turn 3: Pegasus
Pegasus draws "Parrot Dragon" and subsequently Normal Summons it (2000/1300) in Attack Position. "Parrot Dragon" attacks "Rude Kaiser", but Kaiba activates "Mesmeric Control" to negate the attack and reduce the ATK of "Parrot Dragon" by 800 ("Parrot Dragon": 2000 → 1200/1300).

Turn 4: Kaiba
"Rude Kaiser" attacks and destroys "Parrot Dragon" (Pegasus 2000 → 1400).

Turn 5: Pegasus
Pegasus passes his turn.

Turn 6: Kaiba
Seto draws. He then tries to Normal Summon "Blue-Eyes White Dragon", but Pegasus activates "Prophecy" to let him predict if the ATK of Seto's card is more, equal to, or less than 2000. If he is correct, the card will be added to his hand. Pegasus guesses that the card Seto is trying to play has over 2000 ATK. He is right, so "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" is added to his hand. Kaiba switches "Rude Kaiser" to Defense Position.

Turn 7: Pegasus
Pegasus draws. He then Sets 1 card and sets a monster.

Turn 8: Kaiba
Kaiba draws. He then Normal Summons "Saggi the Dark Clown" (600/1500) in Attack Position. Next he sets "Crush Card".

Turn 9: Pegasus
Pegasus draws. He then activates "Negative Energy" to double the ATK of every DARK monster on the field ("Saggi the Dark Clown": 600 → 1200/1500). This means that "Saggi" can't be used for the effect of "Crush Card" as its ATK is now over 1000. Since the ATK of "Saggi the Dark Clown" is now over 1000, "Crush Card" is destroyed. Pegasus then Flip Summons "Dark Rabbit" (1100/1500) into Attack Position. Due to the effect of "Negative Energy", the ATK of "Dark Rabbit" is doubled ("Dark Rabbit": 1100 → 2200/1500). "Dark Rabbit" attacks and destroys "Saggi the Dark Clown" (Kaiba 2000 → 1000).

Duel concludes next episode.

  • When Pegasus summons "Dark Rabbit", the area around its mouth is colored purple.
  • In the dub, Pegasus says his Trap Card Prophecy says he can guess Kaiba's card but it's clearly shown as a Spell Card.
