'''"The Duel Off, Part 2"''', known as '''"I Summon Wildman! Judai VS Versus Misawa (Part 2)"''' in the Japanese version, is the twenty-second episode of the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]] '' anime. It first aired in Japan on March 2, 2005 and in the United States on November 23, 2005. {{Episode summary|[[Jaden Yuki]] and [[Bastion Misawa]] continue their duel Duel to determine [[Duel Academy]]'s representative int he in the inter-school match against [[North Academy]], while the reporter, [[Gerard]] continues his search for the secrets of Duel Academy.}}

[[Gerard]] has successfully hacked in one of the computers in [[Duel Academy]]'s library, and is able to find the information he needs. He finds a list of students that are studying abroad, which includes [[Atticus Rhodes]]. However, the list is so large that he determines that it must be a cover-up - each of those students must be among the missing. Elsewhere, the duel Duel between [[Jaden Yuki]] and [[Bastion Misawa]] to determine Duel Academy's representative against [[North Academy]] continues. Though Jaden has an 800 a 1200 point advantage in terms of [[Life PointsLP]], Bastion has sealed off Jaden's use of "[[Polymerization (anime)|Polymerization]]" through "[[Cursed Seal of the Forbidden Spell (anime)|Cursed Seal of the Forbidden Spell]]", thus preventing Jaden from using his primary way of [[Fusion Summon]]ing.  [[Zane Truesdale]] is impressed, as Bastion has essentially crippled Jaden's Deck via the use of a single card, since all of Jaden's known trump cards are [[Fusion MonstersMonster]]s. Unable to Summon "[[Elemental Hero Tempest (anime)|Elemental Hero Tempest]]" as he had intended, Jaden Summons "[[Elemental Hero Avian (anime)|Elemental Hero Avian]] in [[Defense Position]] and switches "[[Elemental Hero Sparkman (anime)|Elemental Hero Sparkman]]" to [[Defense Position]] before ending his turn. Despite the situation, Jaden is still confident he can find another way to win the duelDuel. Bastion Summons "[[Mathematician (anime)|Mathematician]]", whose effect forces him to [[send]] the top card of his [[Main Deck|Deck ]] to the [[Graveyard]]. Bastion has "[[Water Dragon (anime)|Water Dragon]]" and "Mathematician" attack and destroy "Sparkman" and "Avian", respectively. Gerard intends to leave the island, and print a news story about the [[Abandoned Dorm]] and the missing students, which would bring him instant fame and fortune, but ruin Duel Academy's reputation in the process. On his way out, he opts to stop by the Duel Arena and begins to watch the remainder of the Duel. Jaden Summons "[[Elemental Hero Bubbleman (anime)|Elemental Hero Bubbleman]]", [[Draw a card|drawing]] two cards via its effect. He then [[equip]]s it with "[[Bubble Blaster]]", increasing its [[ATK]] by 800. He attacks and destroys "Mathematician", whose effect lets Bastion draw a card. Jaden [[Set]]s two cards and activates "[[Mirage of Nightmare (anime)|Mirage of Nightmare]]", commenting that Bastion is making a big mistake if he thinks his Deck functions on nothing but Fusions. The [[Elemental HERO]]es have other combinations he can use, not just Fusions. Bastion starts his turn and "Mirage of Nightmare" lets Jaden restore his hand to four cards during Bastion's [[Standby Phase]]. After that, he activates his [[face-down]] "[[Emergency Provisions (later anime)|Emergency Provisions]]", sending "Mirage of Nightmare" to the [[Graveyard]] to gain 1000 LP, and avoid the negative effect of the card - he would have to discard the same number of cards he just drew during his own Standby Phase. Gerard is impressed, but still feels he's wasting his time watching the Duel. However, he can't bring himself to leave. Bastion activates "[[Pot of Greed (anime)|Pot of Greed]]", drawing two cards. This means that ten cards are now on top of the "[[Carboneddon (anime)|Carboneddon]]" in his Graveyard, which lets him activate its effect, [[Banish|removing]] it from play and [[Special Summon]]ing "[[Hyozanryu (anime)|Hyozanryu]]" from his Deck. This effect is likened to carbon being turned into a diamond when subjected to immense pressure, in this case represented by the ten cards on top of it. "Hyozanryu's" name in the Japanese version is "Diamond Dragon", and the English version adds that phrase to the end of "Hyozanryu's" name in order to make this more clear. "Hyozanryu" attacks "Bubbleman", which destroys "Bubble Blaster", negating the [[Battle damage]] and destruction of the monster, but reducing "Bubbleman's" attack to 800. "Water Dragon" attacks and destroys it, dealing Jaden 2000 damage, but letting him activate his face-down "[[Hero Signal (anime)|Hero Signal]]", Special Summoning "[[Elemental Hero Clayman (anime)|Elemental Hero Clayman]]" from his Deck in [[Attack Position]]. Bastion Sets a card to end his turn. Jaden plays "[[The Warrior Returning Alive (anime)|The Warrior Returning Alive]]", adding "Bubbleman" from his Graveyard to his hand, before Summoning it and activating "[[Bubble Shuffle (anime)|Bubble Shuffle]]". This switches both "Bubbleman" and "Water Dragon" to Defense Position, and lets Jaden [[Tribute]] the former to Summon "[[Elemental Hero Bladedge (anime)|Elemental Hero Bladedge]]" in Attack Position. He than activates "[[Skyscraper (anime)|Skyscraper]]" and attacks with "Bladedge", destroying "Water Dragon", as "Skyscraper" increases the ATK of Elemental Hero monsters by 1000 when they battle monsters with higher ATK. Bastion is reduced to 500 LP, but "Water Dragon's" effect activates, letting him Special Summon two "[[Hydrogeddon (anime)|Hydrogeddon]]s" and one "[[Oxygeddon (anime)|Oxygeddon]]" from his Graveyard, all in Defense Position. Since a monster was destroyed in battle, Bastion is also able to activate his face-down "[[Last Magnet]]", which equips to "Bladedge", decreasing its [[Original ATK and DEF|original attack]] by 800. Jaden ends his turn by destroying "Oxygeddon" with "Clayman", whose ATK is increased by 1000 via "Skyscraper". Bastion begins his turn, activating the [[Ritual Spell Card]], "[[Litmus Doom Ritual (anime)|Litmus Doom Ritual]]", Tributing his two [[Level]] 4 "Hydrogeddons" to [[Ritual Summon]] the Level 8 "[[Litmus Doom Swordsman (anime)|Litmus Doom Swordsman]]". Though it has 0 original ATK, that stat increases to 3000 if their is a face-up [[Trap Card]] on the field. With "Last Magnet" still face-up, both its ATK and [[DEF]] become 3000. It also cannot be [[Destroyed by battle|destroyed in battle]], and is immune to the effects of Trap Cards. He uses it to attack and destroy "Bladedge", which sends "Last Magnet" to the Graveyard with it so its stats return to 0. "Hyozanryu" then attacks and destroys "Clayman". Basttion activates "[[A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon (anime)|A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon]]", returning "Hyozanryu" to his hand to destroy "Skyscraper". He Sets a card to end his turn.  Jaden states that he believes this to be the most enjoyable Duel he's ever had. He Summons a new Elemental HERO - "[[Elemental Hero AvianWildheart (anime)|Wildheart]]". Bastion activates "[[Spirit Barrier (anime)|Spirit Barrier]]", explaining that this will decrease all Battle damage he takes to 0 so long as he has a face-up monster. However, Jaden reveals that "Wildheart" is immune to the effects of Trap Cards. Regardless, a Trap is still face-up so "Litmus Doom Swordsman" still receives his boost, returning its stats to 3000. Jaden equips "Wildheart" with "[[Cyclone Boomerang (anime)|Cyclone Boomerang]]", respectivelyincreasing its ATK by 500. Syrus notes that still won't help for Jaden as "Litmus Doom Swordsman" is still stronger. Bastion then realizes that Jaden is aiming for something else. Jaden attacks "Litmus Doom Swordsman", destroying his own monster and losing 1000 LP, reducing him to 300. However, when "Cyclone Boomerang" is sent to the Graveyard while equipped to "Wildheart", it destroys all other Spell and Trap Cards on the field, and inflicts 500 damage to the opponent for each one. "Spirit Barrier" is destroyed and Bastion loses his remaining 500 LP, thus losing the Duel.  Bastion promises he'll develop yet another Deck to Duel Jaden with and the latter responds he'll look forward to it. Gerard has rediscovered his passion for Dueling through watching Jaden and Bastion, and reveals his former intentions to [[Alexis Rhodes]]. He then reveals he no longer intends to break the story on the Abandoned Dorm to become rich, but will continue to investigate in an attempt to find the missing students. ==Featured Duel: Jaden Yuki vs. Bastion Misawa=={{ambox|text=This Duel uses [[Yu-Gi-Oh!
