===Appearance===
True to their their name, the "Frog" as well as the "Toad" monsters resemble their real-life counterparts. Some "Frog" monsters like "[[Flip Flop Frog]] and "[[Poison Draw Frog]] showcase their long, sticky toungues tongues in their artwork. Most of the "Frogs" and "Toads" have distinctive and colorful markings on their bodies and heads, most notably "[[Swap Frog]]", "[[Dupe Frog]]", "[[Beelze Frog]]" and "[[Ronintoadin]]".  Some "Frog" and "Toad" monsters resemble angels like "[[Treeborn Frog]]", while others resemble demons like "Beelze Frog" and "Swap Frog". This thematic resemblance to angels and demons is further highlighted by the contrasting half-angel, half-demon appearances of "[[Substitoad]] and [[Tradetoad]].
===Etymology===
Almost all of members the "Frog" archetype and the "Toad" series have their Japanese names intended as puns.
"[[Froggy Forcefield]]" is not a "Frog" card, because it does not have 「ガエル」 in its Japanese name. "[[Slime Toad]]", originally known as "Frog the Jam", is also not a "Frog" card because of its Japanese name, and was renamed for clarification. "Slime Toad" have 「ガエル」 in its Japanese name instead and is a member of the "Toad" series. Additionally, "[[Majespecter Toad - Ogama]]" and "[[Toad Master]] are not "Toad" monsters as they do not have 「ガエル」 in their Japanese names.
