'''"Heraldry"''', known as '''"Medallion"''' (メダリオン ''Medarion'', written as {{Ruby|紋章|メダリオン}} ''Medarion''in the anime) in Japan, is an [[archetype]] of cards used by [[Vetrix]] in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]]'' anime.
The "Heraldry" archetype largely serves as support for the "[[Heraldic Beast]]" archetype, and consists mostly of [[Spell Card|Spell]] and [[Trap Card|Trap]] cards. The archetype itself lacks a single form of cohesive gameplay, instead augmenting the abilities of a "Heraldic Beast" Deck. For example; "[[Heraldry Change]]", "[[Heraldry Reborn]]" and "[[Advanced Heraldry Art]]" all feature effects which [[Special Summon]] "[[Heraldic Beast]]" monsters for quicker [[Xyz Summon]]s. "[[Heraldry Record]]" serves a defensive purpose in line with the archetype's anti-Xyz monster effects, [[negate|negating]] the [[activate|activation]] of an Xyz Monster's effect.
