** Whenever Jaden Normal Summoned him by sacrificing [[Elemental HERO]]es, he sacrificed "[[Elemental HERO Bubbleman]]" (twice alongside "[[Elemental HERO Avian]]" after [[De-Fusion|De-Fusing]] them; once from "[[Elemental HERO Tempest]]" in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX - Episode 077|episode 77]] and once from "[[Elemental HERO Mariner]]" in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX - Episode 157|episode 157]]).
 
** Most of the non-token [[Tribute Summon]]s happened during [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX episode listing (season 4)|Season 4]] when Jaden started focusing more on summoning Neos and powering him up instead of combining monsters. He even included "[[Grade Sword]]" in his deck to summon Neos with one sacrifice ("Bubbleman").
