Battle CityEdit
- In episode 82, Yami Yugi uses this card during his Duel against Yami Bakura. He equips this card onto "Dark Magician Girl", increasing its ATK by 500. In the next episode, Yugi plays "Collected Power", which transfers this card's effect and the "Evil Ghost of Dark Sanctuary" onto "Kuriboh". He then activates "Exile of the Wicked" to destroy "Kuriboh". This eliminates the "Evil Ghost of Dark Sanctuary" and destroys this card.
Virtual WorldEdit
- In episode 103, Téa Gardner uses this card during her Duel against Crump. She equips this card onto "Maha Vailo", increasing its ATK by 500. Since "Maha Vailo" was equipped with an Equip Card, it gains 500 more ATK due to its own effect. After Crump activates "Revenge Sacrifice" to Tribute "Maha Vailo" and Special Summon "Defender Iceberg" from his hand, this card is destroyed.
Battle City FinalsEdit
- In episode 132, Yugi sets this card during his Duel against Seto Kaiba. He had planned initially to use it to power up his "Dark Magician" when "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" attacked it. If that was all done, both monsters would be destroyed in a Double KO before Kaiba summoned "Lord of D.". Two episodes later, "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" attacks "Red-Eyes B. Dragon", but Yugi activates this card to equip it to "Dark Paladin" and increase its ATK by 500, however Kaiba activates "Absorb Spell" to transfer the bonus to "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" instead. Yugi then activates "De-Fusion", to return "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" to the Extra Deck and revive Kaiba's three "Blue-Eyes White Dragons" under his control. This causes this card to be destroyed.
- In the first above-mentioned episode, this card is shown when Kaiba is thinking about Yugi's set cards.
Waking the DragonsEdit
- In episode 163, Yugi uses this card during his Duel against Yami Yugi. He equips this card onto "Dark Magician Girl", increasing her ATK by 500. This made the ATK of "Dark Magician Girl" 3000. After Yugi Tributes "Dark Magician Girl" for the effect of "Catapult Turtle", this card is destroyed.
