Illusion (げんそう Gensōma, lit. "Illusion Magic") is a Type of Monster Card. It was the first Type from the manga version of Duel Monsters (first appearing in December 1997) to be added to the OCG after its launch, debutting there with April 2023's Duelist Nexus.

The Dreams Alignment, appearing in a few early video games, is based on this Type and shares its Japanese name.

Overview

In the manga, the Illusion Type was used by Maximillion J. Pegasus. Members included "Illusionist Faceless Mage", "Dark-Eyes Illusionist", "Relinquished", "Thousand-Eyes Restrict", and an unnamed monster. They were supported by "Black Illusion Ritual". The Type is strong against the Black Magic Type and weak against the Fiend Type. In the Japanese manga, it is usually referred to with the same name ultimately used in the OCG, but was called "Illusionist" (幻想師 Gensōshi) in one occasion. In the English manga, it is referred to as "Illusionists" at one point and "Illusion" at another.

In the 1998 Bandai Carddass game, the Type was assigned to "Dragon Capture Jar" and "Dragon Piper", which were also cards used by Pegasus.

Most Illusion Effect Monsters released in the TCG/OCG share the effect that no monster can be destroyed by battles involving them (including themselves), incorporate the Eye of Wdjat in their artworks, and/or feature a nearly monochromatic abstract background.
