'''Beast'''-Type monsters are often overlooked, but often have great utility. Because they are relatively low in number compared to more popular monster types, there is no one specific theme or strategy common to them, though many have effects that assist them during the Battle Phase. Many Beasts are weaker utility monsters that splash well into other decks, like [[Nimble Momonga]], but a few Beasts are potent on their own, such as "[[Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest]]", which summons itself whenever ANY Beast is destroyed, "[[Master of Oz]]", which is one of the strongest Fusion Monsters available in terms of sheer ATK, and [[Naturia Beast]], which has a potent Spell Card lockdown. One Beast-type card, "[[Rescue Cat]]", was previously only truly useful for setting up [[Ojama]] fusions, but since the release of [[Synchro Monsters]], it has become a near-invaluable staple card in by summoning a [[Beast]]-type [[Tuner Monster]] and another Beast for an immediate [[Synchro Summon]].
 
 
[[Archetype]]s include the [[Ojama|Ojamas]], [[Template:Sphinx|Sphinx]], and [[Koala]] monsters, and [[The Fabled]] sub-archetype. In addition, a good portion of the [[Crystal Beasts]] fall underneath this Type.
 
 
Some other respectable Beast-[[Type]] monsters are "[[Zeman the Ape King]]", "[[Earthbound Immortal Cusillu]]", " [[Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest]], "[[Bazoo the Soul-Eater]]", "[[Berserk Gorilla]]", "[[King Tiger Wanghu]]", "[[Outstanding Dog Marron]]", "[[Mosaic Manticore]]","[[Behemoth the King of All Animals]]", "[[Rescue Cat]]", and "[[Voltic Kong]]".
 
 
==Example==

==Beast Decks==
 
===Moja Deck===
 
A Moja deck is based around three TCG-Exclusive cards released in [[Raging Battle]]; "[[Moja]]", "[[King of the Beasts]]", and "[[Beast Striker]]". The idea is to have a King of the Beasts in the graveyard and continuously resummon Moja, so that King of the Beasts can continually revive itself no matter how many times it is destroyed. An example decklist can be found [http://www.konami.com/yugioh/blog/?p=1037 here].
 
 
For this deck, you can use cards such as:
 
* [[Kinka-byo]]: Not only is this a Beast, but its effect allows the re-summon of [[Moja]] over and over - meaning you can special summon one King of the Beasts every turn and get this card back for later use.
 
* [[Giant Rat]]: It can search out "[[Moja]]", and benefits from Moja's effect in return.
 
* [[Rescue Cat]]: This also searches out "[[Moja]]", and can be retrieved by Moja in turn.
 
* [[X-Saber Airbellum]]: It can be special summoned by "[[Rescue Cat]]" for an easy synchro summon. Its discard effect is also quite powerful.
 
* [[Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest]]: With even more ATK than [[King of the Beasts]], and an easy recursion effect, this is a handy card to have. Use it with [[Rescue Cat]]'s drawback to keep a monster on the field at turn's end, combo it with [[Giant Rat]] and [[Moja]], and much more.
 
* [[Yellow Baboon, Archer of the Forest]]: Not as good as [[Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest|Green Baboon]]. It can only be summoned from your hand, and requires the removal of Beasts from your graveyard - not necessarily a good thing, because they can be very useful there. However, Yellow Baboon isn't a bad card.
 
* [[Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter]]: It's a Beast-type monster, with a nasty flip effect that can mill [[King of the Beasts]] or [[Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest]]. If this card is destroyed and you mill Green Baboon, the baboon can be instantly summoned! Also works with Rescue Cat - you can special summon a level 5 synchro monster when this card is paired with [[X-Saber Airbellum]].
 
* [[Creature Swap]]: Perfect for this deck. It works incredibly well with [[Moja]], because of Moja's low ATK and good effect. And you steal your opponent's monster into the bargain. Giant Rat is also very good for this purpose.
 
* [[Foolish Burial]]: Instantly puts a [[King of the Beasts]] or a [[Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest]] into the graveyard for later use.
 
* [[Pot of Avarice]]: You'll be discarding with [[Beast Striker]], milling with [[Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter]], thinning the deck with [[Giant Rat]] and [[Rescue Cat]] - this is perfect to use. With Pot of Avarice, Beast Striker's effect can be used more than just 3 times.
 
* [[Solidarity]]: Buffs "[[King of the Beasts]]" to 3300 ATK, and allows you to destroy cards more easily. The drawback is not being able to use cards like "[[Sangan]]" or "[[Card Trooper]]".
 
 
===Weenie Beasts===
 
This deck is based around swarming the field with beasts, mainly using [[Rescue Cat]], and increasing their attack for an [[OTK]].  The deck is known as "Weenie" Beasts because, individually, most of the monsters in this deck have quite low attack.
 
 
Some suggestions of cards to use for this deck:
 
*[[Rescue Cat]]: One of the key cards in this deck. It can be used to search out most of the monsters in the deck and is essential for pulling off an OTK. You can search for either cards like "[[Milus Radiant]]" to pull off an OTK, or you can use it to grab "[[X-Saber Airbellum]]" and another card for a quick synchro.
 
*[[Milus Radiant]]: Another very important card, it can give a boost to your entire field; more than one on the field at a time can be deadly.
 
*[[Giant Rat]]: Can search out a lot of cards, including "[[Rescue Cat]]".
 
*[[Inferno Reckless Summon]]: Can be extremely useful in combination with such cards as "[[Milus Radiant]]".
 
*[[Spiritual Earth Art - Kurogane]]: Can pull a [[Rescue Cat]] from your grave, which you can cycle for two more cards. It can also get a "[[Milus Radiant]]", which you can use "[[Inferno Reckless Summon]]" on for two more.
 
*[[Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest]]: A useful card that can be used in combination with [[Rescue Cat]]'s ability, which destroys the monsters at the end of the turn.
 
*[[Gaia Power]]: A free attack boost to your whole field.
 
*[[X-Saber Airbellum]]: A beast-type tuner that can be searched out with [[Rescue Cat]].
 
*[[Sea Koala]]: Can help destroy any attack position monster on the opponent's side of the field.
 
*[[The Big March of Animals]]: It can give up to a 1000 ATK boost to your whole field.
 
*[[Solidarity]]: An extra 800 ATK each is amazing and can stack up quickly.
 
:''This deck can also be built using [[Royal Decree]]; just take out most of the traps and put these in.''
