A Transformation Summon is a type of Fusion Summon featured in the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX manga. It is used by the "Masked HERO" archetype.
It essentially reduces the amount of cards used for a Fusion Summon by one, in that only one monster and a card such as "Mask Change" or "Form Change" is needed, as opposed to two or more Fusion Material Monsters and "Polymerization".[1] However, the produced Fusion Monster tends to be less powerful than the result of a traditional fusion.
Trivia
- Although Jaden Yuki does not perform Transformation Summons in the Yu-Gi-Oh!

- The TCG/OCG effect of "The Eye of Timaeus" resembles the mechanics of Transformation Summon.
