'''Different Dimension''', usually abbreviated '''Different Dimension (D.D.)''', and called {{Ruby|異|い}}{{Ruby|次|じ}}{{Ruby|元|げん}} ('' is a name given to a series of cards all starting with either Ijigen'D.D.' ) or {{Ruby|Ｄ|ディー}}．{{Ruby|Ｄ|ディー}}． (''Dī Dī'Different Dimension'. These ) in the Japanese version, is a [[series]] of cards that focus on removing [[banish]]ing cards from play, often on their demiseincluding themselves once they are defeated, thus sending them to a 'Different Dimension' rather then simply different dimension as opposed to just destroying the other monster. They can use those monsters to get more powerful or gain special effectsenemy. Although they were released in different sets, a large amount of '"Different Dimension' " monsters were released in ''[[Structure Deck: The Dark EmperorStructure Deck]]''. [[Nelson AndrewsAlien of Light]] used some D.D. cards in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' anime and [[Nelson Andrews]] used some in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]]'' anime. ==Lore=={{Main|Master Guide 1 card storylines#Somewhere That Isn't Here...the Different Dimension!!}} ==Playing style==A D.D. Deck revolve around card banishment, commonly used in conjunction with other cards such as "[[Golden Homunculus]]", "[[Gren Maju Da Eiza]]", the [[Helios]] cards, "[[Caius the Shadow Monarch]]", etc. Other cards also return themselves from banishment: "[[D.D. Survivor]]", "[[D.D. Scout Plane]]", etc. Because D.D. is often associated with the [[Sparrow Family]], the strongest D.D. monsters are "[[D.D. Esper Star Sparrow]]" (which has 3000 ATK) and "[[D.D. Jet Iron]]" (which has 4000 ATK), although these cards are more associated with the [[Sparrow Family]] than the D.D. theme, and are not related to banishing like other D.D. cards. Beyond them, however, D.D. monsters are rather weak in terms of offense, with "[[D.D. Assault Carrier]]" being the only other D.D. monster to have more than 1800 ATK. Furthermore, while there are D.D. Spell and Trap cards, because the theme lacks any archetype support, combined with the low ATK of the monsters in the theme, makes it difficult to create a Deck with only D.D. cards. ===Weakness==="[[Imperial Iron Wall]]" shuts down most D.D. cards (with some exceptions, such as "[[Different Dimension Dragon]]"). ===Recommended cards==={{Decklist|Recommended cards<!-- This is not an exact Decklist. Do not add multiples or staples.-->

|effect monsters =* [[D.D. Assailant]]* [[D.D. Assault Carrier]]* [[D.D. Crow]]* [[D.D. Destroyer]]* [[D.D. Patrol Plane]]* [[D.D. Scout Plane]]* [[D.D. Seeker]]* [[D.D. Survivor]]* [[D.D. cards are great for cards that revolve around removed from play cards, such as "Unicorn Knight]]* [[D.D. Warrior]]* [[D.D. Warrior Lady]]* [[Card Trooper]] / [[Kuribandit]]* [[Golden Homunculus]]", "* [[Gren Maju Da Eiza]]", the "* [[Helios - The Primordial Sun|Helios]]" cards, "[[Graverobber's RetributionKycoo the Ghost Destroyer]]", "* [[Caius the Shadow MonarchNecroface]]", etc.

There are also cards that help removing at the same time that represent a defense for you as "|tuner monsters =* [[D.D. Trap HoleSprite]]", "[[D.D. Survivor]]", "[[D.D. Scout Plane]]", etc.

These cards are not without their weakness however. "|synchro monsters =* [[Imperial Iron Wall]]" will effectively shut down all D.D. cards (with the exception Angel of a small few like "[[Different Dimension DragonZera]]".) None are particularly powerful, with their strongest OCG/TCG monster, "* [[D.D. SurvivorHTS Psyhemuth]]", having only 1800 ATK Points; the strongest monster overall is "* [[D.D. ESPer Star Robin]]" with 3000 ATK, although it is currently exclusive to the anime. It is hard to create a deck filled with nothing but D.D. cards, so in decks these are normally used as a subPSY-type (mostly in [[BanishFramelord Omega]] Decks).

However, it is possible to have a sound D.D primary deck, for cards such as "[[Golden Homunculus]]", "[[Gren Maju Da Eiza]]", and the "[[Helios - The Primordial Sun|Helios]]", gain attack and defense points multiplied by a certain number to your/both your and your opponent's Banish cards. In a "D.D" deck that focuses only on Banish cards, these xyz monsters can become a massive threat to your opponent, continually gaining in power. Also, "=* [[Imperial Iron Wall]]" can be remedied by running spell/trap cards that destroy other spell and trap card, such as "[[Mystical Space Typhoon]]", "[[Dust Tornado]]", etc. Not only that, but Leviair the "[[MonarchsSea Dragon]]" help greatly by destroying your opponent's cards and, if the proper card is present; ie, "[[Dimensional Fissure]]", and "[[Macro Cosmos]]", also Banish them, and possibly damaging your opponent in the process with cards such as, "[[Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch]]", "[[Caius the Shadow Monarch]]", and the worth mentioning (however not a monarch, "[[Super Conductor Tyranno]]", with which you can keep recycling "[[D.D. Survivor]]" and/or "[[D.D. Scout Plane]]" to damage your opponent each turn. (Nevertheless, pure D.D cards are weak and should be used as back up to the previously mentioned non-D.D cards.)
