'''Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 5 Expert 1''' is a video game for the '''Game Boy Advance''', and the first game to follow the real [[OCG]]/[[TCG]] rules. The game is very similar to its English version ([[Yu-Gi-Oh! The Eternal Duelist Soul]]) in the story, but different in the graphics and the Booster Packs (The Eternal Duelist Soul uses the same graphic as [[Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition: Stairway to the Destined Duel]]). Gameplay is similar to standard dueling rules, except that the Side Deck can have less than 15 cards, and is more for convenience of getting to cards for your Deck than switching between duels, as CPU duels are single duels rather than matches (though you will have a match duel against a character every two weeks on a Saturday).  
+
'''''Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 5: Expert 1''''' is a video game for the Game Boy Advance, and the first game to follow the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game]]'' (''OCG'') rules. It and its successor, ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 6: Expert 2]]'', are the only numbered games in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (video game series)|Duel Monsters]]'' series to use ''OCG'' rules.
  
==Gameplay==
+
It has an English-language remake, ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! The Eternal Duelist Soul]]'', which makes a number of modifications, including incorporating some elements from ''Duel Monsters 6''.
[[File:DM5 Main Menu.png|thumb|left|160px|Main Menu]]
 
  
Opponents are arranged in "tiers," with higher tiers unlocked by beating already open tiers. A tier may consist of 4 or 5 duelists. In order to advance, all duelists on a tier must be beaten a certain amount of times before the next level can be unlocked. Beating a tier also unlocks certain in-game events, such as special cards that can only be received by beating that tier.
+
==Changes from ''Duel Monsters 1'' to ''4''==
 +
'''General'''
 +
* The calendar system is introduced.
 +
* [[#D-Tactics|D-Tactics]] are introduced.
 +
* Instances of text can contain [[wikipedia:kanji|kanji]].
 +
* Players may use Latin letters and Arabic numerals in their names.
 +
* Ability to speed up gameplay is added.
 +
* The player can view their cards and edit their Deck without challenging an opponent first.
 +
* Switching between Deck and Bag, while constructing a Deck, is made much smoother.
  
[[File:DM5 Deck Edit.png|thumb|160px|Deck edit]]
+
'''Rules'''
Another important aspect of the game is the in-game calendar. On certain days of the week (not actual days, as the game does not support a real date function) in game, random events may occur, such as recieving a pack of cards in the mail or being challenged to a Match by an opponent.
+
* The game switches to the ''Duel Monsters'' Expert Rules, which replicate the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game]]'' and are much different than the rules featured in the previous four games in the series.
 +
* [[Rock-paper-scissors]] is used to decide which players moves first.
 +
* [[Match]]es (best of three Duels) are introduced. Although single Duels still feature predominately.
 +
* The [[Semi-Limited]] status is introduced.
 +
* Some cards, such as the [[Egyptian God]]s, are completely unusable.
  
This is the first game to include [[Polymerization]] as an actual card. It also includes the [[Egyptian God Cards]], though they are completely unusable, as the game considers them illegal.
+
'''Campaign'''
 +
* The number of wins required to progress to later stages is not fixed at ten and varies for each stage.
 +
* New special conditions for unlocking certain opponents are added.
 +
* Events other than facing selected opponents can happen.
 +
* Tournaments are introduced.
 +
* Cards may be lost by [[Ante Duel|ante]] in certain events.
 +
* Sets are introduced.
 +
* Random drops from opponents are removed in favor of the player choosing a Booster Pack from a list of unlocked sets.
 +
* [[Tea Gardner (Duel Monsters 5)|Tea Gardner]] and [[Solomon Muto (Duel Monsters 5)|Solomon Muto]], who featured in previous games can now be faced as opponents.
 +
* New opponents include [[Umbra & Lumis (Duel Monsters 5)|Umbra & Lumis]] and the [[Duel Computer (Duel Monsters 5)|Duel Computer]].

As the game progresses, more and more cards unlocked that can be used for your Deck.  There are over 900 unlockable cards; beating a certain level or even particular duelists will unlock new Booster Packs or reward the player with rare cards. Like many previous and later Yu-Gi-Oh! games, it also used the 8-digit passwords printed on most cards to unlock new cards.  Cards are kept in a chest where they can be accessed at any time, and may be placed in the Deck or Side Deck. Fusion cards that are added to the Deck do not go toward the 40 card minimum, and are used in the Fusion Deck. The game follows the banned list created at the time of the game.

After connecting two copies of the game and entering the trade menu, each player selects a card from their bag and confirms that they wish to trade it. Each card is then sent to the opposite player's game.

[[Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon (G5)|Legend of Blue-Eyes White Dragon]]
+
The player can view their cards and edit their Deck from the Deck & Bag menu. The menu has three different screens, which can be toggled between using the {{key press|L}} and {{key press|R}} keys.
 +
* '''Bag''': All cards in the player's possession, not currently in the Deck or Side Deck.
 +
* '''Deck''': 40 to 60 cards used in Duels.
 +
* '''Side Deck''': 0 to 15 cards, which can be used to modify the Deck between [[Duel]]s, during [[Match]]es.
  
[[Phantom God (G5)|Phantom God]]
+
Each screen shows a list of cards with four visible at a time. The up and down arrows can be used to move through the cards one at a time or the left and right arrows to move four a time. When highlighted, a card's illustration, stats and the number of copies of it in the Bag, Deck and Side Deck are displayed. When selected, the player can view its details or move a copy to the Bag, Deck or Side Deck.
  
[[Dark Ceremony (DM5-BP)|Dark Ceremony]]
+
The order of the cards can be changed in each screen. The options to sort by are name (which is also numeric order), [[ATK]], [[DEF]], [[Level]] and [[Type]]. In the event of a tie, e.g. two cards having the same Level, when order by Level, they are ordered per the previously applied filter.

When starting a new game, the player is presented with a choice of three Decks, Black, Green, and Red, to use as their Initial Deck. Each Deck is generated by selecting a certain number of cards at random from a group of card pools.
  
[[Expert Pack 4 (DM5-BP)|Expert Pack 4]]
+
In the below table, each card pool is represented in a column. The "Size" row is the total number of cards in the pool; the "Red", "Green", and "Black" rows show the number of cards the respective Deck selects from that pool.

[[Duelist Pack (DM5-BP)|Duelist Pack]]

===Packs===
 +
Players open packs throughout the game. Each pack contains five cards; four Common cards and one, which can be of any other rarity.
  
[[Duel Finalist (DM5-BP)|Duel Finalist]]
+
====Rarities====
 +
The probabilities for the possible rarities of the fifth card are listed below.

[[Millennium Puzzle Gold (DM5-BP)|Millennium Puzzle Gold]]
+
The rarity names are not used in-game. However they correspond to the rarities the cards have in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game]]''. e.g. all cards in ''DM5''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s ''[[Vol.1 (DM5)|Vol.1]]'' with 6/180 probability are [[Ultra Rare]] in the ''OCG''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s ''[[Vol.1]]''. There is no visual indicator in the game to say exactly what rarity a card is. All Secret, Ultra, Super and Rare cards have their name displayed in a foil pattern when viewing the contents of a pack.

====List====

[[File:DM5 Booster Packs.png|thumb|320px|Packs]]
  
[[Weekly Jump Magazine (DM5)|Weekly Jump Magazine]]
+
When the player wins a Duel, they are usually presented with a choice of Booster Packs, many of which are based on real-world ''[[OCG]]'' sets. Three packs are available at the beginning of the game. More are unlocked as the player meets certain conditions.
  
[[V-Jump Magazine (DM5)|V-Jump Magazine]]
+
* The "unlocked by" column explains how to make the packs available at the Booster Pack-selection screen.
 +
* The "event" column lists other situations where the player is awarded the pack. When the player is awarded a Booster Pack, they are not directly told which one they receive, instead only see which five cards it contained. The player must win a [[Match]] (best out of three Duels) for each of these events, except the Ghoul encounter, which is a single Duel and the ''Weekly Jump'' and ''V Jump'' prizes, which do not involve any Dueling.
 +
* Certain events only occur if the player faces particular opponents. The "opponent" column lists the opponent for the event, mentioned in the "event" column, if applicable.

==Cheats==
+
===Tournament prize cards===
 +
Normally a pack is awarded to the player for winning a Match in a tournament. The National Championship also awards [[Ticket Card]]s; The player can win "[[Set Sail for the Kingdom (DM5)|Set Sail for the Kingdom]]", "[[The Monarchy (DM5)|The Monarchy]]" and "[[Glory of the King's Hand (DM5)|Glory of the King's Hand]]" in the first, second and third rounds respectively.
  
===Getting The Egyptian God Cards===
+
===Passwords===
 +
[[File:DM5 Password Machine.png|thumb|160px|Password Machine]]
  
The [[Egyptian God Cards]] are not legal in this game; they also don't have a password, so the only way to get them is from their packs.
+
Passwords can be found on the lower left hand corner of actual physical ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' cards. In this and many other games, a password screen allows these codes to be entered to unlock new cards.  However, there are two conditions to this:
  
'''Obelisk The Tormentor''':
+
* Certain rare cards will not allow their passwords to be entered, unless the condition to unlock them has been met but the game has not awarded it yet.
 
+
* The player must not already have the card in his/her Trunk, [[Deck]], [[Side Deck]] (or if the card is a newer card), it will not go through and it will display an "ERROR" message.
You can obtain [[Obelisk the Tormentor (original)|Obelisk The Tormentor]] from [[Duel Finalist (DM5-BP)|Duel Finalist]] Booster Pack.
 
 
 
'''The Winged Dragon of Ra''':
 
 
 
You can obtain [[The Winged Dragon of Ra (original)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]] from [[V-Jump Magazine (DM5)|V-Jump Magazine]].
 
 
 
'''Slifer The Sky Dragon''':
 
 
 
You can obtain [[Slifer the Sky Dragon (original)|Slifer The Sky Dragon]] from [[Millennium Puzzle Gold (DM5-BP)|Millennium Puzzle Gold]] Booster Pack.
 
 
 
===Other Cheats/Hints===
 
 
 
*Beat [[Shimon Muran|Simon]] once to get 1 copy of every card not already in your possesion.
 
  
*If you would like to play your duel at a faster pace than normal, hold R button down during the Janken game. Once the duel starts you can let go. The game will now be twice as fast as normal.  
+
===Trading===
 +
Players may exchange cards using the [[#Trade|Trade]] menu.
  
*When a die roll initiates, hold B to make the number higher or A to make the number lower. This works almost every time.
+
It is possible to exploit this option to duplicate cards. When trading, after one player has pushed the trade button, if the second player waits until the card appears back on the first player's screen before pushing the trade button, both players will have both cards being traded.
  
*Once you play [[Graverobber]], set the chosen Magic Card instead of immediately activating it. Once the card is set, activate it and you will not lose the 2000 Life Points.
+
===Simon===
 +
By Dueling [[Simon (Duel Monsters 5)|Simon]] once, the player gets a copy of every card not already in their possession.
  
[[File:DM5 Trade.png|thumb|160px|Trade]]
+
==Rules==
*To duplicate a card, trade with a friend. When you go to trade, <u>one</u> person pushes the trade button; when their card appears back on their screen, the other person pushes the trade button. Both players will now have the original and traded cards.
+
The game almost directly follows the rules of the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game]]'' (''OCG''), as they were at the time of the game's development. Differences include:
 +
* There is an upper limit of 60 cards on the [[Main Deck]]. (At the time, there was no upper limit in the ''OCG''.)
 +
* The Side Deck can have between 0 and 15 cards. (At the time, the ''OCG'' only allowed for an exactly 15-card Side Deck or no Side Deck.)

Campaign[edit]

Stages[edit]

Opponents are arranged in "tiers", with higher tiers unlocked by beating already open tiers. A tier may consist of 4 or 5 duelists. In order to advance, all duelists on a tier must be beaten a certain amount of times before the next level can be unlocked. Beating a tier also unlocks certain in-game events, such as special cards that can only be received by beating that tier.

  • Japanese days off, including Sundays and public holidays are marked in red on the calendar.
  • Weekly Jump distribution dates are marked with a "WJ" icon. These occur every Tuesday, unless the Tuesday is a day off, in which case it occurs on the last working day beforehand. The player receives five cards, from either gift pack A or gift pack B on this day.

Option[edit]

Options

The option screen gives the player the following

  • Change name: Allows players to change their name
  • Record: Displays the number of wins, losses and draws against each character
  • Sound: Toggle sound settings between "on", "special effects only" and "off"
  • Duelist Point

Deck & Bag[edit]

Deck edit

The player can view their cards and edit their Deck from the Deck & Bag menu. The menu has three different screens, which can be toggled between using the L and R keys.

  • Bag: All cards in the player's possession, not currently in the Deck or Side Deck.
  • Deck: 40 to 60 cards used in Duels.
  • Side Deck: 0 to 15 cards, which can be used to modify the Deck between Duels, during Matches.

Each screen shows a list of cards with four visible at a time. The up and down arrows can be used to move through the cards one at a time or the left and right arrows to move four a time. When highlighted, a card's illustration, stats and the number of copies of it in the Bag, Deck and Side Deck are displayed. When selected, the player can view its details or move a copy to the Bag, Deck or Side Deck.

The order of the cards can be changed in each screen. The options to sort by are name (which is also numeric order), ATK, DEF, Level and Type. In the event of a tie, e.g. two cards having the same Level, when order by Level, they are ordered per the previously applied filter.

Duel[edit]

Players can connect two copies of the game, using the Game Link Cable, to Duel against each other.

Obtaining cards[edit]

Initial Deck[edit]

When starting a new game, the player is presented with a choice of three Decks, Black, Green, and Red, to use as their Initial Deck. Each Deck is generated by selecting a certain number of cards at random from a group of card pools.

In the below table, each card pool is represented in a column. The "Size" row is the total number of cards in the pool; the "Red", "Green", and "Black" rows show the number of cards the respective Deck selects from that pool.

Pool 1 Pool 2 Pool 3 Pool 4 Pool 5 Pool 6 Pool 7 Pool 8 Pool 9 Pool 10 Pool 11
Size 6 2 7 6 7 2 13 13 13 57 12
Black 6 1 2 2 5 2 3 3 6 10 3
Red 6 3 3
Green 3 6 3

Packs[edit]

Players open packs throughout the game. Each pack contains five cards; four Common cards and one, which can be of any other rarity.

Rarities[edit]

The probabilities for the possible rarities of the fifth card are listed below.

Rarity Normal Rare Secret Rare Ultra Rare Super Rare Rare Common
Probability 6/180 4/180 6/180 12/180 36/180 116/180

The rarity names are not used in-game. However they correspond to the rarities the cards have in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game. e.g. all cards in DM5's Vol.1 with 6/180 probability are Ultra Rare in the OCG's Vol.1. There is no visual indicator in the game to say exactly what rarity a card is. All Secret, Ultra, Super and Rare cards have their name displayed in a foil pattern when viewing the contents of a pack.

List[edit]

Packs

When the player wins a Duel, they are usually presented with a choice of Booster Packs, many of which are based on real-world OCG sets. Three packs are available at the beginning of the game. More are unlocked as the player meets certain conditions.

  • The "unlocked by" column explains how to make the packs available at the Booster Pack-selection screen.
  • The "event" column lists other situations where the player is awarded the pack. When the player is awarded a Booster Pack, they are not directly told which one they receive, instead only see which five cards it contained. The player must win a Match (best out of three Duels) for each of these events, except the Ghoul encounter, which is a single Duel and the Weekly Jump and V Jump prizes, which do not involve any Dueling.
  • Certain events only occur if the player faces particular opponents. The "opponent" column lists the opponent for the event, mentioned in the "event" column, if applicable.
Set Unlocked by Event Opponent
Vol.1 Available from the start
Vol.2 Available from the start
Vol.3 Available from the start

Tournament prize cards[edit]

Normally a pack is awarded to the player for winning a Match in a tournament. The National Championship also awards Ticket Cards; The player can win "Set Sail for the Kingdom", "The Monarchy" and "Glory of the King's Hand" in the first, second and third rounds respectively.

Passwords[edit]

Password Machine

Passwords can be found on the lower left hand corner of actual physical Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. In this and many other games, a password screen allows these codes to be entered to unlock new cards. However, there are two conditions to this:

  • Certain rare cards will not allow their passwords to be entered, unless the condition to unlock them has been met but the game has not awarded it yet.
  • The player must not already have the card in his/her Trunk, Deck, Side Deck (or if the card is a newer card), it will not go through and it will display an "ERROR" message.

Trading[edit]

Players may exchange cards using the Trade menu.

It is possible to exploit this option to duplicate cards. When trading, after one player has pushed the trade button, if the second player waits until the card appears back on the first player's screen before pushing the trade button, both players will have both cards being traded.

Simon[edit]

By Dueling Simon once, the player gets a copy of every card not already in their possession.

Rules[edit]

The game almost directly follows the rules of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game (OCG), as they were at the time of the game's development. Differences include:

  • There is an upper limit of 60 cards on the Main Deck. (At the time, there was no upper limit in the OCG.)
  • The Side Deck can have between 0 and 15 cards. (At the time, the OCG only allowed for an exactly 15-card Side Deck or no Side Deck.)

Limited cards[edit]

D-Tactics[edit]

D-Tactics is a feature that helps players learn the basics of the game and test them with puzzles.

Rules[edit]

There are some rules in D-Tactics.

  • The level will pick the Deck the player uses. They will use the same Deck each time they play that level.
  • The starting hand in each puzzle will be roughly the same, regardless of the player's Deck. Some unimportant cards will be different.
  • The player must win in a single turn.
  • A hint is given at the start of each level.

Progressing[edit]

Initially, only six levels are available. Each time the player completes six, the next six will become available, until all have been unlocked.

Glitches[edit]

  • If the Magic Card taken by "Graverobber" is set before activation the player will not lose the 2000 Life Points.

Promotional cards[edit]

Game guides[edit]

Demo[edit]

A demo "Taikenban" version of Duel Monsters 5: Expert 1 is known to exist.[1][2]

Notes[edit]

  1. At the time of this game's release in 2001, May 4 was an unnamed holiday that was created due to a rule that any day which falls between two holidays automatically also becomes a holiday, with these days being referred to as a "citizens' holiday". In 2006, Greenery Day was moved to May 4, and Greenery Day's original April 29 date was changed to the new Shōwa Day holiday.
  2. The Emperor's Birthday is celebrated on the actual date of birth of the reigning emperor. At the time of this game's release in 2001, this was Emperor Akihito's birthday, on December 23.
