"'''Batteryman'''" ({{Ruby|電|でん}}{Infobox/Yu-Gi-Oh!/Archetype/End{Ruby|池|ち}} The Batterymen are the first メン ''Denchimen'') is an [[archetype]] of [[LIGHT]] [[Thunder]] archetype. They consist of using swarm tactics and support cards to destroy your opponent's Spell, Trap, and [[Monster cardsCard|monsters]]. Initially, "Batteryman decks " Decks were [[OTK decks ]] Decks that focused on [[Special Summoning Summon]]ing three copies of "[[Batteryman AA]] and using ". This allowed the player to then use "[[Short Circuit]] " to clear the opponent's field for and then [[direct attack]] for a minimum of 9000 damage. However, following the release of "[[Batteryman Fuel Cell]]" and "[[Batteryman 9V]]", many different variants are possible, such as a "[[hunder]]" variant. In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]'', [[Dexter]]'s Deck contained at least one member of this archetype, "[[Batteryman AA (anime)|Batteryman AA]]".==Design==The number shown on the chests of "[[Batteryman AA]]", "[[Batteryman AAA]]", "[[Batteryman C]]" and "[[Batteryman D]]" corresponds their Levels.This also relates to what their respective battery sizes are called in Japan.{| class="wikitable"!

Although most of the "Batteryman" archetype is made up of weak monsters, poweful effects more than make up for it. "[[Batteryman AA9V]] " is the main key card in a Batteryman deck because getting three of the archetype. By [[Summon]]ing it out means three 3000 ATK beatsticks which , any "Batteryman" card in the Deck can potentially end the gamebe [[search]]ed. "[[Batteryman Micro-Cell]] " can be set to set up a free summon [[Special Summon]] any "Batteryman" from the deckDeck, usually AA or D. "Batteryman 9V" for additional searching power and a 2000 [[Batteryman DDEF]] is useful because it can protect your other Batterymen with a high defense that most all level 4 monsters can't get throughmonster. "[[Batteryman Charger]] " is one of the most useful monsters cards in the archetype, because you it can summon Special Summon a "Batteryman " of any level [[Level]] from your deck the Deck when you normal summon the player [[Normal Summon]]s it. Through cards like "[[The Monarchs Stormforth]]", itis easy to abuse. It also makes a good attacker[[beatstick]], as swarming Batterymen [[swarm]]ing them can get its ATK up to 2700 and higher a max of 3300 with relative ease. "[[Batteryman Industrial Strength]] " is the most powerful "Batteryman " (in terms of its destructive effect and original ATK) because he it can [[destroy ]] two of your opponents cards the opponent [[control]]s with an his effect, simply by simply removing one [[banish]]ing a [[Thunder]] monster from the [[Graveyard]]. Another card many Batteryman decks use is "[[Super-Electromagnetic Voltech DragonBatteryman Fuel Cell]], because with " is one of the most important "Batteryman" card since most "Batteryman tribute it could be a ''3400 attacker'', or a 2400 creature immune to Spells and Traps. In " [[The Shining DarknessOTK]], two new monsters are released, s rely on it. "[[Batteryman AAA]] and " is also often used in "Batteryman" Decks for quick [[Fuel Cell BatterymanXyz Summon]]plays. Since "Batteryman AAA " is pure swarm material and you can use it with a [[Lightwave TuningLIGHT]] to get out a level 8 Synchro Monster. But the real reason to use monster, it is that it combos perfectly with Fuel Cell. Fuel Cell can special summon itself from the hand if you control two Batterymen, and you can tribute a Batteryman allows access to powerful [[BounceRank]] one of your opponents cards, preferably anything with more than 2100 ATK, particularly Synchros. Fuel Cell is also useful because you can also summon the level 6 monster with other Batteryman support, unlike Industrial Strength. The 4 [[Xyz Monster]]s like "[[WattStarliege Paladynamo]]-archetype (also released in The Shining Darkness) can aid Batterymen decks with lockdown " and syncho support. The Watts are also Thunder types"[[Constellar Omega]]".  ===Recommended Cardscards==={{Decklist|Recommended cards<!-- This is not an exact Decklist.

Also, "[[Deck Devastation Virus]]", Batteryman AAA"[[King Tiger Wanghu]]", Batteryman C and "[[Kotodama]]" can be more effective for greatly hindering "Batteryman D corresponds his Levels" Decks, especially OTK builds.{{Archseries navbox}}{{Archseries navbox (Duel Links)}}{{ArchetypeNavboxArchseries navbox (OCG Structures)}}[[Category:ArchetypeTCG and OCG archetypes]]
