"Graceful Dice":

In episode 58, Joey uses this card during his Duel against Espa Roba, who was cheating in the duel (Espa's brothers were on top of a nearby building peeking at Joey's cards and reporting them by radio. They mistook one of Joey's cards to be a second copy of this card, but it was actually "Skull Dice.)". Joey sets this card and "Skull Dice" and Espa assumed they were both two copies of this card. Espa's "The Fiend Megacyber" then attacks "Swordsman of Landstar", but Joey activates this card to roll a die and divide the ATK of "Swordsman of Landstar" by the result. The result is a three, so the ATK of "Swordsman of Landstar" is tripled. Joey then (to Espa's shock) activates "Skull Dice" to roll a die and divide the ATK of "The Fiend Megacyber" by the result. The result is a five, so the ATK of "The Fiend Megacyber" by 5. "Swordsman of Landstar" then destroys "The Fiend Megacyber".

In episode 60, this card can be seen in Kaiba's briefcase when he offers all the rare cards inside the briefcase to Koji Nagumo.

In episode 64, Joey uses this card during his duel against Weevil Underwood. When Weevil attacks "Parasite Paracide" with "Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth", Joey activates "Skull Dice" to roll a die and divide the ATK of "Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth" by the result. Joey gets a two, so the ATK of "Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth" is halved. Joey then activates this card to roll a die and divide the ATK of "Parasite Paracide". Joey gets a four, so the ATK of "Parasite Paracide" is quadrupled. "Parasite Paracide" then destroys "Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth".

In episode 74, this card appeared within some of the small clips that were shown going through a black background before we see a montage of Joey's Battle City Duels.

In episode 76, this card is shown in Joey's hand during his Duel against Yugi Muto while the former was possessed by Marik Ishtar. In the next episode, Joey activates this card and "Skull Dice" when "Archfiend of Gilfer" attacks "Panther Warrior". Yugi then activates "De-Spell" to destroy this card. The effect of "Skull Dice" continues, rolling a die. The result is a two, so the ATK of "Archfiend of Gilfer" is divided by two until the End Phase. "Archfiend of Gilfer" then destroys "Panther Warrior".

In episode 104, this card can be seen when Joey is shown building his Deck for his duel with Johnson. This card was one of the two known cards Joey selected.

In episode 105, Joey uses this card during his Duel against Johnson. He activates this card to roll a die and multiply the ATK of "Swordsman of Landstar" by the result. Joey gets a six, but Johnson cheats by changing the roll to a one, so the ATK of "Swordsman of Landstar" doesn't change. Johnson then activates the Deck Master Ability of "Judge Man" to destroy "Swordsman of Landstar" and inflict 500 damage to Joey.

In episode 108, this card appears in a flashback explained by Leichter when he reminds Seto that his birthday gift from Gozaburo Kaiba was where all the mistakes made by Seto himself began.

This card was used again in Joey's duel with Yami Marik. This card was used on Yami Marik's free "Plasma Eel" (the other two were equipped to "Rocket Warrior" and "Lava Golem" respectively). Joey got a six on the roll which meant that "Plasma Eel"'s ATK is increased to 3000. Because of this, "Machine Duplication" was destroyed along with the two "Plasma Eels" that were equipped to Joey's monsters.

This card was next used in Joey's second duel with Kaiba. He used it on his "Swordsman of Landstar. Joey got a four on the roll, meaning "Swordsman of Landstar"'s ATK is quadrupled. Joey then had his monster destroy Kaiba's "La Jinn the Mystical Genie of the Lamp". At the End Phase, the effect of this card wears off, returning the ATK of "Swordsman of Landstar" back to 500.

In episode 148, this card is seen among piles of cards in Rex's fantasy when he thinks the reason why Pegasus invited Yugi and his friends was because he wanted to give them rare cards just for them.

Joey used this card in his duel against Apdnarg Otum. When "Swordsman of Landstar" attacked "Wandering Mummy", Joey activated this card to make his monster stronger, but Apdnarg activates "Legendary Gambler" to roll his own dice. Joey got a four while Apdnarg got a six. Since Apdnarg's roll was higher, this card's effect was negated.

Joey used this card again in his duel with Zigfried von Schroeder. Joey used this card in an attempt to increase his "Sasuke Samurai"'s ATK so that way it would be strong enough to bypass "Loge's Flame"'s effect. Joey however only got a three on the roll, meaning that "Sasuke Samurai"'s ATK was only tripled. This in turn did not make it strong enough to bypass the effect of "Loge's Flame". At the End Phase, the effect of this card wears off, returning the ATK of "Sasuke Samurai" back to 500.

Graceful Dice could only be used on a monster with 500 ATK points or less. It multiplied the chosen monster's ATK points by the result of the roll. At first, the boost lasted until the monster was destroyed, but later in the Anime, it only lasted for a turn.

In the anime, it also seemed you could only activate one Graceful Dice per turn. However, this became a moot point as Joey (the only duelist who used the card) was never shown having more than one Graceful Dice in his deck at any given time.
