Card Trivia:Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon
Revision as of 17:21, 18 January 2017 by FighterofLight (talk)
- This monster is the cover card for both Duelist Alliance and Structure Deck: Master of Pendulum.
- This is the first cover card in the TCG since Light of Destruction to be printed as a Secret Rare.
- This is the first cover card monster since Photon Shockwave "Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon" that does not normally fit in the Extra Deck, though it can exist on top of the Extra Deck due to how Pendulum Monsters work.
- This monster is the signature card of Yuya Sakaki.
- In the anime, this card is the transformed version of "Odd-Eyes Dragon" after it reacted with Yuya's pendant.
- This monster's eye colors are based on Yuya's hair colors.
- It shares the same ATK of 2500 as of the other signature cards: "Dark Magician", "Elemental HERO Neos", "Stardust Dragon" and "Number 39: Utopia". These monsters are respectively the signature cards of Yugi Muto, Jaden Yuki, Yusei Fudo and Yuma Tsukumo, the previous protagonists from the first four series of the anime.
- This monster's Attribute and Level are the same as Yugi Muto's "Dark Magician": a DARK Attribute, Level 7 monster.
- This card also marks the first time in Yu-Gi-Oh! where the protagonist has a "(Something)-Eyes (Something) Dragon" Dragon-Type monster as their signature card instead of their rival, like "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" or "Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon".
- This is the first protagonist Ace Monster to have an offensive effect rather than a protective one, like "Stardust" and "Utopia". It does have a defensive Pendulum effect however, though never used in the anime.
- According to Zuzu Boyle, this card represents the courage Yuya inherited from his father.
- This card continues the trend of card names which included "Red-Eyes B. Dragon", "Blue-Eyes White Dragon", "Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon", "Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" and "Googly-Eyes Drum Dragon".
- This card is one of the first monsters to be Pendulum Summoned in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V anime, along with "Performapal Whip Snake" and "Performapal Sword Fish".
- This card is the first Pendulum Monster Yuya set in a Pendulum Zone that wasn't a "Magician" Pendulum Monster.
- This card has several evolutions, counterparts, and hybrids.
- Evolutions: 7
- Counterparts: 3
- Fusion: "Starving Venom Fusion Dragon"
- Synchro: "Clear Wing Synchro Dragon"
- Xyz: "Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon"
- Hybrids: 2
- Xyz-Pendulum: "Odd-Eyes Raging Dragon" & "Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon" (w/ "Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon").
- This monster appears in the artworks of "Odd-Eyes Fusion", "Odd-Eyes Accel" and "Spiral Flame Strike".
- An outline of this monster's head appears on the ground in the artwork of "Performapal Dramatic Theater".
- This card has a manga counterpart: "Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon".
- This monster has the following distinctions from the other Four Dimension Dragons:
- It is the only member to have a downgraded form ("Odd-Eyes Dragon").
- It is the only member whose dimension is not named after its Summoning method.
- It is the only member without wings, making it a pure land-based monster.
- It is the only member that can be stored in the Main Deck.
- It is the only member that cannot boost its own ATK, instead only boosting its battle damage.
