− | + | The '''Attribute Spirits''' are a group of monsters with "Spirit" 「精霊」 in their name; however, they are not [[Spirit Monsters|Spirit monsters]]. They each belong to one of the four elemental [[Attribute]]s: [[EARTH]], [[FIRE]], [[WATER]], and [[WIND]]. Being [[Special Summon-only monsters]], their conditions for being [[Special Summon]]ed are that you must [[Removed from play|remove]] one of your monsters in your [[Graveyard]] with the same Attribute as it [[Removed from play|from play]]. There is another set of monsters with similar effects and conditions, but these do not include "Spirit" in their name, and some require you to remove two monsters of the proper [[Attribute]] instead of one. In the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]] anime, these cards were part of [[Lyman Banner]]'s/[[Amnael]]'s [[Alchemy]] Deck, used as cost for [[Elemental Absorber]]. The Attribute Spirits (and Silpheed instead of Garuda) are related to this science, as they resemble the representation of the elements in alchemical symbology: The Rock Spirit resembles a dwarf, representative of the earth; Spirit of Flames resembles a salamander, representative of the fire; Silpheed resembles a sylphid, representative of the air; and Aqua Spirit resembles a nymph, representative of the water. | |
