{{Episode summary|With the [[Genex Tournament]] having begun, [[Jaden Yuki]] is searching for opponents and finds one in [[Franz]]—a renegade [[Industrial Illusions]] card designer who has stolen a copy of "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (anime)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]]", created for testing purposes.}}
==Summary==
{{incomplete}}The [[Genex Tournament]] is in full swing, but [[Jaden Yuki|Jaden]] and his friends are in a slump — slump—especially Jaden especially, since no challengers have approached him for a Duel. Meanwhile, [[Maximillion Pegasus]] and [[Chumley Huffington]] have arrived at [[Duel Academy]] from [[Industrial Illusions]], searching for a stolen copy of the strongest [[Egyptian God Cards|Egyptian God Card]], "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (originalanime)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]]". It is later discovered that a man named [[Franz]] has stolen the card, and then sneaked his way into the [[Genex Tournament]]. When [[Franz]] finds them, he challenges Pegasus to a Duel, stating that the winner will claim the stolen card. However, it's Jaden who ends up dueling [[Dueling Franz]], and must ultimately find a way to free "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (originalanime)|Ra]]" from a confining [[Field Spell CardsCard|Field Spell]] that forces it Ra to use its powers against its will. Jaden is ultimately able to not only destroy Ra, but then Summon it from the graveyard, allowing him to attack with it and win the duel. After the duel, Ra reveals itself to be a real monster, not a hologram, before vanishing. Following Franz's defeat, Pegasus explains to him that everyone can learn a lot from defeats and mistakes, while revealing the spot where his [[Millennium Eye]] once rested (before being stolen by [[Yami Bakura]]). When Pegasus offers Franz back his position in Industrial Illusions, Franz readily accepts, and returns to Industrial Illusions with Pegasus and Chumley. ==Featured Duel: Jaden Yuki vs. Franz==<u>'''Turn 1: Jaden'''</u><br />[[Jaden Yuki|Jaden]] draws "[[Polymerization (anime)|Polymerization]]" and subsequently activates it to fuse "[[Elemental Hero Wildheart (anime)|Elemental Hero Wildheart]]" with "[[Elemental Hero Necroshade (anime)|Elemental Hero Necroshade]]" and [[Fusion Summon]] "[[Elemental Hero Necroid Shaman (anime)|Elemental Hero Necroid Shaman]]" (1900/1800) in [[Attack Position]]. He then uses the [[effect]] of the "Necroshade" in his [[Graveyard]] in order to [[Normal Summon]] "[[Elemental Hero Neos (anime)|Elemental Hero Neos]]" (2500/2000) in Attack Position without Tributing. <u>'''Turn 2: Franz'''</u><br />[[Franz]] draws. He then Normal Summons "[[Ra's Disciple (anime)|Ra's Disciple]]" (1100/600) in Attack Position. Since "Ra's Disciple" was Summoned, its effect activates, letting Franz add two more copies of "Ra's Disciple" from his [[Main Deck|Deck]] to his [[hand]]. He then activates "[[Trap Booster]]" to discard one card and activate "[[Ultimate Offering (anime)|Ultimate Offering]]" from his hand. Now during each of Franz's Main Phases and Jaden's Battle Phases, Franz may Normal Summon more than once, but he must pay 500 Life Points each time he Normal Summons more than one monster. Franz then uses the effect of "Ultimate Offering" to [[pay]] 1000 [[Life Points]] (Franz 4000 → 3000) and Normal Summon two more "Ra's Disciples" (1100/600 each) in Attack Position. Franz then uses the effect of "Ultimate Offering" to pay 500 more Life Points (Franz 3000 → 2500) and Tribute the three "Ra's Disciples" to Normal Summon "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (anime)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]]" (?/?) in Attack Position. Due to the effect of "The Winged Dragon of Ra", its [[ATK]] and [[DEF]] become equal to the total ATK and DEF of the Tributed [[monster]]s ("The Winged Dragon of Ra": ? → 3300/? → 1800). Franz then activates "[[Mound of the Bound Creator (anime)|Mound of the Bound Creator]]". Now all [[Level 10]] or higher monsters can't be destroyed by card effects and each time a Level 10 or higher monster Franz controls [[destroy]]s a monster Jaden controls [[by battle]], Jaden will take 400 [[effect damage|damage]]. "Ra" attacks and destroys "Necroid Shaman" (Jaden 4000 → 2600). The effect of "Mound of the Bound Creator" activates (Jaden 2600 → 2200).
==Errors==*When The Winged Dragon of Ra is Summoned, it enters the field in its dragon form without having to be released from sphere mode. It is possible that Franz had devised a way to bypass this, but it is never mentioned. * When Franz activated "[[payDe-Fusion (anime)|pays]] 1000 [[Life PointsDe-Fusion]] ", a replay should not have occurred as no monsters left or were Summoned to the field. (Franz: 3000 LP) However, it would have made no difference during the Duel, as Jaden could have continued to attack directly with "Glow Moss" and summons his 2 other then destroyed Ra with "[[Ra's Disciple]]sNeos" ([[1100 ATK Monster Cards|1100 ATK]] / [[600 DEF Monster Cards|600 DEF]] each) , resulting in [[Attack Position]]the same outcome.)
*[[Pay|Pays]] an additional 500 [[Life Points]] (Franz: 2500 LP) and [[tribute|tributes]] his 3 When activating the "[[Ra's Disciple|Ra's DisciplesPoint-to-Point Transfer]]" to [[Tribute Summon|summon]] effect of "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (originalanime)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]]" (, [[? ATK Monster Cards|? ATKFranz]] / 's [[? DEF Monster Cards|? DEFLife Points]]are shown dropping from 4000 to 1 instead of the actual 1200 to 1. (Ra still gains the proper 1199 ATK.), who appears in [[Attack Position]] as he chants its incantation.
*One of When Franz activates "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra De-Fusion (originalanime)|Ra'sDe-Fusion]]" [[effect|effects]] is activated: its [[ATK]] and [[DEF]] are both equal to the total [[ATK]] and [[DEF]] of the [[Tribute|tributed]] [[monster|monsters]]. (restore his Life Points, "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (originalanime)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]]'s": 3300 [[ATK]] / 1800 [[DEF]])is shown to be 4400 instead of 4499.
*Activates When Franz activates "[[Mound of the Bound CreatorTrap Booster]]", which allows all he mistakenly states that he is "Summoning" "[[Level 10 Monster CardsUltimate Offering (anime)|Level 10 MonstersUltimate Offering]] to attack, regardless " instead of any conditions or restrictions"activating" it.
==Differences in adaptations==*In the English dub, when "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (originalanime)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]]" unleashes its powers, [[attack|attacks]] and [[destroy|destroysSyrus]] remarks that it's "[[Elemental Hero Necroid Shaman|Necroid Shaman]]just your everyday, basic pillar of fire" (Jaden: 2600 LP). In the Japanese, Sho says nothing, and "Judai remarks about the great power he feels from [[Mound The Winged Dragon of the Bound CreatorRa (anime)|Mound of the Bound Creator's]]" effect inflicts 400 points of extra [[Effect damage|damage]] to [[JadenRa]]. (Jaden: 2200 LP)
