Similar to how Synchro Monsters replaced Ritual and Fusion monsters when ''Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's'' started, [[Xyz Monster]]s have slowly started replacing Synchro Monsters since ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]]'' started. New Booster Packs, Starter Decks, and Duel Terminals now focus on Xyz Monsters and included almost no more tuner Monsters and no Synchro Monsters have appeared in ''ZEXAL'', save for "[[Iron Chain Dragon]]" and only in the preview for [[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL - Episode 001|episode 1]].
