'''Divine-Beast''' (Japanese: {{Ruby|幻|げん}}{{Ruby|神|しん}}{{Ruby|獣|じゅう}} ''Genshinjū'', "Phantom God Beast"), simply called '''God''' (Japanese: {{Ruby|神|かみ}} ''Kami'') in the manga, is a [[Type]] of [[Monster Card]].
+
'''Divine-Beast''' (Japanese: {{Ruby|幻|げん}}{{Ruby|神|しん}}{{Ruby|獣|じゅう}} ''Genshinjū'' "Phantom God Beast") is a [[Type]] used for the [[Egyptian God]] Cards: "[[Slifer the Sky Dragon]]", "[[Obelisk the Tormentor]]" and "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra]]" (including their original, illegal prints). In [[Yu-Gi-Oh! R]], the [[Wicked God]]s are Divine-Beast-Type monsters; in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]] anime, the [[Aesir]] are Divine-Beast-Type monsters.
  
It debuted as the ''[[V Jump February 2009 promotional card]]'' in the ''[[OCG]]'', and the ''[[Shonen Jump Vol. 8, Issue 1 promotional card]]'' in the ''[[TCG]]''. While Divine-Beast monsters were printed as far back as in 2000 as promotional cards for the three separate versions of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 4: Battle of Great Duelist]]'', they were unusable collector's cards that are officially considered [[Illegal]].
+
The three Egyptian God Cards are considered the most powerful cards in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! (anime)|Yu-Gi-Oh! anime]] and [[Yu-Gi-Oh! (manga)|manga]], each having their own unique and devastating effects.
  
==Overview==
+
Prior to the release of the legal prints of "[[Obelisk the Tormentor]]", "[[Slifer the Sky Dragon]]", and "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra]]", Divine-Beast was not a legal Type. With their release, it can now be declared with cards like "[[DNA Surgery]]". There is currently no support for Divine-Beast-Type monsters; however, "[[Ra's Disciple]]" supports all three monsters of this Type by name.
The Divine-Beast Type is used exclusively for the [[Egyptian God]] Cards: "[[Slifer the Sky Dragon]]", "[[Obelisk the Tormentor]]", and "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra]]" (including their illegal original prints, as well as "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra - Sphere Mode]]" and "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra - Immortal Phoenix]]"). As such, all Divine-Beast monsters possess the [[DIVINE]] Attribute.
 
  
Support cards for the Type deal with easing the Summon of the Egyptian Gods, as well as helping the player in protecting and strengthening them once they hit the field.
+
==Divine Type==
 
+
In Reshef of Destruction, the Divine Type was given to monsters so that they would not be affected by the game's standard type system, which caused monsters of certain types to automatically destroy monsters of certain types. Any cards that target "''light type''" monsters may also target Divine-Beasts (this might have been applied in some video games, but it does not apply to real game play). For example, "Kaiser Sea Horse's" effect applies to the summoning of Divine-Beast-Type monsters. Also, contrary to popular belief, the Divine type is just as Susceptible to card effects as any other monster, not including monsters with the ability in their effect not to be affected by said effects.
==Appearance in media==
 
Contrary to its ''TCG''/''OCG'' exclusivity, the [[Wicked God]]s in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! R]]'', the [[Sacred Beast]]s in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' anime, and the "[[Aesir]]" monsters in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]'' anime are also Divine-Beast monsters. The Wicked Gods were changed to [[Fiend]]s, while the other 2 groups were split between other Types based on each member's aesthetic and thematic design.
