Dipper was enlisted by [[Henrietta]] along with his fellow course representatives [[Masumi Kotsu]] and [[Yaiba Todo]] to Duel members of [[You Show Duel School]] in retaliation for the supposed attack by [[Yuya Sakaki]] on [[Silvio]]. Dipper Dueled first against Yuya himself, who was reported to have used an [[Xyz Monster]] against Silvio. They Dueled, by sheer coincidence, on Dipper's favored Action Field, "[[Cosmo Sanctuary]]." Dipper brought out "[[Constellar Pleiades]]" on his first turn, and waited to see if Yuya would also [[Xyz Summon]]. Claiming innocence, Yuya instead [[Pendulum Summon]]ed, though Dipper countered with the effect of "Pleiades", returning "[[Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon]]" to Yuya's hand. Dipper used his superior knowledge of the Field to restrict Yuya's attempts to get [[Action Card]]s, even going as far as to time his attacks to put Yuya in deliberate danger. After "Pleiades" ran out of [[Overlay Unit]]s, Dipper brought out another, and he also used the first one as an Overlay Unit to Summon "[[Constellar Ptolemy M7]]," again timing his attacks to prevent Yuya from getting an Action Card, but this time he failed and Yuya was able to survive the attack and inflict damage to Dipper for the first time in 40 Duels. Enraged, Dipper used "[[Constellar Tempest]]" to endanger Yuya even more, reducing him to 200 [[Life Points]]. On his next turn, however, Yuya rearranged his [[Pendulum Scale]]s and used "[[Stargazer Magician]]" to counter the bouncing effect of "Pleiades", then used "[[Magical Star Illusion]]" to boost the [[ATK]] of all players' monsters by the combined [[Level]]s they controlled. As Dipper only controlled Xyz Monsters, with [[Rank]]s, he received no attack boost and Yuya's monsters swiftly defeated him.<ref name="ep9">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!

Masumi pointed out that Dipper could hardly talk since he'd lost, prompting Dipper to sulk in the corner.<ref name="ep10">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!

Dipper promptly retreated to the corner again in shame.<ref name="ep11">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!

After the attack on [[Marco (ARC-V)|Professor Marco]], Dipper went to visit the crime scene with Masumi and Yaiba. They were reassured by LID ace [[Tio]] that things were under control, but Masumi wasn't convinced and left after Dipper and Yaiba expressed admiration of the top team.<ref name="ep15">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V|15|ref}}</ref> Masumi continued to search, and Dipper observed that some members of the LID top team had disappeared, and Yaiba commented that they might be next. They were interrupted by [[Gong]], Yaiba's opponent, who initially intimidated them before humbly asking to learn how to [[Synchro Summon]]. Masumi later contacted Dipper, having found the culprit of the attacks, but they were slowed down when Dipper ran into Yuya, who joined them upon hearing what they'd found. By the time they got to the harbor, the culprit had vanished.<ref name="ep21">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V|21|ref}}</ref> Dipper and his friends later used themselves as bait, and the culprit, [[Shay]], approached Masumi, who called Yaiba and Dipper. The three of them Dueled Shay in a [[Battle Royale]], with Dipper taking the third turn. Vowing to defend the honor of Xyz Summoning, he used "Pleiades" and "Ptolemy M7" to return two of Shay's "[[Raidraptor - Vanishing Lanius]]" to his hand, and then the third in Yaiba's turn. Yaiba the proceeded to remove Shay's Set cards and his hand, apparently leaving him open, but Shay was able to use the "[[Raidraptor - Readiness]]" [[Trap Card]] in his [[Graveyard]] to hang on with 10 Life Points. Dipper was the most mocking of Shay's chances, not understanding what Shay's cryptic words were about, but Shay proceeded to use "[[Dimension Xyz]]" to bring out his "[[Raidraptor - Rise Falcon]]," using its effect to gain the total ATK of all [[Special Summon]]ed monsters on the field, and attack them all, wiping the three of them out.<ref name="ep24">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!
