Yokai (ようかい Yōkai) is a Type of Monster Card used by Bastion Misawa in the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX manga. They are based on yōkai creatures from Japanese folklore.

Bastion is the only character to play Yokai monsters, and only in the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX manga. The Yokai Type's core strategy consists of Special Summoning Yokai monsters from the Graveyard, which triggers their effects. Besides effects that allow the user to Special Summon their Yokai from the Graveyard, Yokai monsters and related cards also often have effects that send monsters to the Graveyard (like "Gozuki"), or that benefit from having Yokai monsters in the Graveyard (like "Enma's Judgment").

When the Yokai monsters were released in the OCG/TCG, they were changed to be Zombie monsters, making Yokai a Type exclusive to the manga.

Trivia[edit]

  • In the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX manga, when Bastion and Chazz Princeton Dueled, Bastion once referred the Type of his Monster Cards as being Zombie instead of Yokai. This occurred only in one scene during the Duel, so it is likely an error made by the editors since the OCG/TCG releases of Bastion's cards are changed to Zombie monsters.
