They are required for the [[Synchro Monsters|Summon]] of a [[Synchro Monster]].

Tuner Monsters are the first secondary [[TypeNormal Monster|Normal]], [[Effect Monster|Effect]], [[Fusion Monster|Fusion]] of , [[Normal MonstersRitual Monster|Ritual]], and the fifth secondary Type of [[Effect MonstersPendulum Monster|Pendulum]], like [[Union MonstersMonster Token|UnionToken]] , and [[Spirit Tuner Synchro Monster|Synchro Monsters]]can all be Tuner monsters. SubsequentlyBecause Tuner is not an [[Ability]], Tuner Monsters monsters can also have an Ability, such as [[Flip monster|Flip]] or [[Union monster|Union]]. [[Special Summon Monster]]s can also be either Tuner monsters. Some [[Effect Monsterscard effect]]s can also [[Treats monsters as Tuner monsters|treat non-Tuner monsters as Tuners]] or , including the effects of [[Normal MonstersTrap Monster]]s to Special Summon themselves.

==Characteristics==As a broad category of monsters, Tuner monsters have no central shared effect or special mechanical traits. However, Tuner monsters have some commonalities with regards to their card effects or properties:* Most Tuner Monsters monsters are low in -Level, usually 1-3.* The rarer Level 5+ Tuner monsters typically have effects that change Levels (e.g. "[[LevelFlower Cardian Willow with Calligrapher]]", usually ranging from "[[Mare Mare]]") or have an alternative playstyle (e.g. "[[Ursarctic Megapolar]]").* Older Level4 Tuner monsters often have [[negative effect]] 1 to s or [[Levelcondition]] 3, but they s that limit their use.* Tuner monsters typically have effects that allow them to facilitate support Synchro Summoning, such as:** Special Summoning another monster (e.g. "[[Deep Sea Diva]]", "[[Masked Chameleon]]")** Special Summoning themselves when a condition is met (e.g. "[[Lady of the summoning of Lake]]", "[[Fishborg Archer]]")** Changing monsters' Level, Type, or [[Attribute]] (e.g. "[[Delta Flyer]]", "[[Genomix Fighter]]", "[[Genex Ally Chemistrer]]")* Some Tuner monsters can treat themselves as non-Tuner monsters for a Synchro Summon (e.g. "[[Phantom King Hydride]]")* Some Tuner monsters can only be used as Synchro Material for a limited set of Synchro Monsters|Synchro (e.g. "[[Brotherhood of the Fire Fist - Spirit]]", "[[Mystic Macrocarpa Seed]]", "[[Scrap Soldier]]")* Older [[Tuner Pendulum Monster]]s typically have restrictive effects or conditions (e.g. "[[Luster Pendulum, the Dracoslayer]]", "[[White Wing Magician]]"), often as they can be easily recovered by Summoning other monsters, or altering their own [[LevelPendulum Summon]]ing after being used in Synchro Summons.
