Dimension Summon

A Dimension Summon is a method of Normal Summoning a monster from the hand without Tributing or paying a cost, featured in Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimensions.

Unlike standard Summoning this type of Summon requires the duelist to use "spirit energy". The user uses their "spirit energy" to try and charge up their monster's ATK and DEF. The amount of "spirit energy" put in by the Duelist will result in the monster's ATK and DEF. The monster Summoned cannot surpass its original ATK or DEF. Players take no battle damage from battles involving Dimension Summoned monsters, but will take damage equal to their ATK or DEF when they are destroyed, depending on their battle position. A monster equipped with Dimension Summoned monsters, or a monster that used Dimension Summoned monsters as Material for its own Summon, are also considered Dimension Summoned monsters for damage calculation.

The method of Dimension Summoning, using spirit energy to summon Duel Monsters is similar to how duels in ancient Egypt was performed, utilize the duelist's Ba to summon Ka.
