| − | '''Ener-D''', spelled as '''Enerdy''' in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Tag Force 4]]'' and ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's World Championship 2010: Reverse of Arcadia]]'', known as '''Moment''' in the Japanese version (and sometimes romanized as '''Momentum'''), and short for "Duel energy", is a form of energy in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]''. It is the ultimate energy generation system that keeps spinning in one direction to create an endless power supply. Ener-D is the source of power in [[New Domino City]] that keeps the city running while making the technology for [[Duel Runner]]s, [[Turbo Duel]]s, and Solid Vision possible.
| + | '''Enerdy''', known as '''Momentum''' in the Japanese anime and short for "duel energy", is a form of energy in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]. It is the ultimate energy generation system that keeps spinning in one direction to create an endless power supply. Enerdy is the source of power in [[New Domino City]] that keeps the city running while making the technology for [[Duel Runner]]s, [[Turbo Duel]]s, and Solid Vision(the latest in [[Kaiba Corporation|KaibaCorp's]] line of holographic technology) possible. |

| − | In the dub, its name comes from the word "energy", but replacing the letters '''GY''' with a '''-D''', which stands for Dueling. The change may have been due to the fact that, in English, momentum and energy have distinct meanings in physics.

| + | It is known that Kaiba Corporation's [[M.I.D.S]] is in charge of this technology; the lead developers who had begun the research into it were [[Yusei Fudo]]'s parents. |

| + | In the English anime, its name comes from energy, but replacing the '''G''' with a '''D''', which stands for dueling. The change may have been due to the fact that in English, the term momentum refers to the product of a body's mass times its velocity. Momentum is mathematically related to kinetic energy even though it is a different phenomena. |
| − | Kaiba Corporation's [[R.R.D.]] was in charge of this technology; the lead developers who had begun the research were [[Yusei Fudo]]'s parents, following [[Dr. Fudo]]'s discovery of the [[Planetary Particle|Planetary Particles]] which were essential to making Ener-D possible. | |
| | | | |
| − | [[Roman Goodwin]] described the Ener-D as a near-limitless source of energy that doesn't produce any contamination. | + | The Enerdy system is implied to be a Perpetual Motion Machine, and runs at full capacity in order to meet the power requirements of [[New Domino City]]. Its limit is in its ability to channel excess energy it produces. The appearance of the [[Crimson Dragon]] during the duels between [[Yusei Fudo]] and [[Jack Atlas]] caused the system to exceed its limits. |
| | + | During their first match when the Crimson Dragon appeared, it overpowered the system by dramatically overflowing the energy generation to it. As it was incapable of handling so much power, the system completely shut down, leaving the city in a total blackout. The overflow problem occurred once again during the [[Fortune Cup]], though according to [[Zigzix]] it was running at full operation. Apparently some modifications had to have been made to the system, since the 2nd appearance of the Crimson Dragon only caused the temperature and pressure within the Enerdy system to reach critical point rather then cause the system to blackout as it had before. |

| − | The Ener-D Reactor is implied to be a Perpetual Motion Machine, and runs at full capacity in order to meet the power requirements of [[New Domino City]]. Everything in the city is powered by the Ener-D; if the Ener-D shuts down the entire city suffers a blackout. Its limit is in its ability to channel excess energy it produces. The appearance of the [[Crimson Dragon]] during the Duels between Yusei Fudo and [[Jack Atlas]] caused the system to exceed its limits.

| − | According to [[Bruno]], the Ener-D is self-aware and can read the emotions of humans, and should a human reach the [[Clear Mind]] state, they can control that Ener-D.
| + | After the Fortune Cup, the existence of a first Enerdy system was revealed within [[Satellite]]'s inner grounds. However, according to [[Rex Goodwin]], as it was the first system, it was totally insecure and imperfect when it was activated seventeen years before by [[M.I.D.S]]. Consequently, the system's activation resulted in the major catastrophic event known as the "[[Zero Reverse]] Effect". This was the reason behind the destruction and splitting of [[Domino City]] into New Domino City and Satellite. The system was abandoned on Satellite, until it was "found" by the [[Dark Signers]]. According to Goodwin, the old system is being used as a door to the Underworld. |
| | | | |
| − | It is later revealed that Synchro Summoning causes the Ener-D to spin faster, speeding up the evolution of humanity in the process. However, if it spins too quickly, it will shift into reverse, creating an explosion like [[Zero Reverse]] at a massive scale. | + | It's also known that this system possesses four controllers (safety switches) located in the [[B.A.D.]] area. These controllers are a fail-safe switches placed long ago after the system was shut down completely. Each of the controllers is code-named with the name of one of the Immortal Gods and is guarded by the Dark Signer who possess the corresponding [[Earthbound Immortal]] Duel monster card. The main system itself is represented by the Spider mark and is guarded by the Dark Signer boss Rudger. |

| − | In the apocalyptic future that [[Z-one]], [[Bruno|Antinomy]], [[Aporia]], and [[Paradox]] came from, humanity had abused the power of Ener-D to control evolution and filled it with greedy desires and emotions to the point that the Ener-D went insane and created an army of [[Meklord Emperor]]s to kill all of humanity, and later exploded completely; these two events completely destroyed the world and humanity itself. The only survivors attempted to stop this apocalyptic future by going the past and erasing Ener-D from existence.

| − | In [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 149|episode 149]], it is revealed that the [[Meklord Emperor Genocide]] could be stopped by removing the negative emotions that caused the Ener-D to go out of control and build the Meklord Emperors in the first place, but unfortunately Z-one discovered this too late and couldn't stop the Ener-D before it exploded.
| |
| | | | |
| − | Thanks to Z-one's intervention, the present day New Domino City became aware of the situation, and Yusei created a program known as [[Fortune]], which keeps the Ener-D under control, thus preventing the Meklord Emperor Genocide from occurring.

| − | After the Fortune Cup, the existence of the Original Ener-D Reactor was revealed within [[Satellite]]'s inner grounds. However, according to [[Rex Goodwin]], as it was the first system, it was totally insecure and imperfect when it was activated seventeen years before by [[R.R.D.]]. Consequently, the system's activation resulted in the major catastrophic event known as the "[[Zero Reverse]] Effect".

| − | The system possessed four safety switches located in the [[B.A.D.]] area. These were a fail-safe placed long ago after the system was shut down completely. Each of the control units are code-named with the name of one of the [[Earthbound Immortals]] and is guarded by the Dark Signer who possess the corresponding Earthbound Immortal card. The main system itself is represented by the Spider mark and is guarded by the leader of the Dark Signers, [[Roman Goodwin]].

| − | Before Roman and Yusei's second Duel took place, the Dark Signers blew up the Original Ener-D Reactor. As the negative energy was released the two of them, standing above it, commenced their rematch. Yusei won the Duel but Roman blew up the bridge and Yusei fell into the reactor.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Only three of the four control units were activated, as [[Akiza Izinski]]'s Duel with [[Misty Tredwell]] prevented her from activating the last tower in time.

| |
| − | * In the dub, Rex simplified how Ener-D worked as "powering a city with a pack of cards"; since Dueling was done by everyone by the point of discovery.
