'''Plant''' (Chinese: 植物<ref>From {{cite web|url=http://www.konami-asia.com/th/yugi/howto/experienced.php?lang=cn-t|title=Master Rule 2 version 1.0}}(Chinese edition)</ref>) monsters were very overlooked and weak until [[support]] for the [[Type]] was released in the ''[[Crossroads of Chaos]]'', ''[[Crimson Crisis]]'' and ''[[Raging Battle]]'' booster sets. A general strategy for Plant-Type Decks is to use cards like "[[Gigaplant]]", "[[Lonefire Blossom]]" and "[[Lord Poison]]" to fill the field with powerful monsters. They can go hand-in-hand with [[Insect]]-Types as well with cards like "[[Prickle Fairy]]".  
+
==Overview==
 +
As the name suggests, the Type mostly comprises of plants and plantlike monsters. Many Plant monsters have more down-to-Earth design, looking no different than plants in real life, while others are more fantastical, or contain some degree of non-plantlike traits such as appearing beastly or humanlike.
  
One of the strongest Plant-Type monsters is "Tytannial, Princess of Camellias" at 2800 ATK. It has the power to negate any card effects that target simply by sacrificing a Plant-Type monster (which in worst case scenario can even be herself). It can be easily Summoned by Tributing "[[Lonefire Blossom]]". In power and strategy, "Tytannial, Princess of Camellias" is followed by "Gigaplant", which has 2400 ATK and the power to Special Summon Plants from the Graveyard and [[hand]].  
+
The usual [[Attribute]]s associated with Plants are [[EARTH]], [[WATER]], and ironically [[FIRE]]. Plant cards usually revolve around massive swarming and regenerating back onto the field. Unlike [[Zombie]]s, Plants are often used to fuel effects such as negations or as Special Summon material rather than for strictly attacking purposes. They have many cards that allow them to be Special Summoned from the Deck, hand, or Graveyard. Cards like "Lonefire Blossom", "[[Plant Food Chain]]", "Lord Poison", "Gigaplant", "[[The World Tree]]" and "[[Miracle Fertilizer]]" all add major support to bringing back a swarm of Plant monsters to overwhelm the opponent with sheer amount of usable resources. There are many good Plant [[Tuner monster]]s, like "[[Copy Plant]]" and "Spore". The Type's innate swarming capabilities have also give them noticeable edge in [[Link Summon]]ing, with the "[[Sunavalon]]" archetype being specialized around capitalizing on that potential.
  
Other notable Plant-Type monsters include "[[Mystic Tomato]]", "[[Spore]]", "[[Dandylion]]", "[[Botanical Lion]]", "[[Glow-Up Bulb]]", "[[Nettles]]", "[[Lord Poison]]", "[[Cactus Fighter]]" and "[[Rigorous Reaver]]".
+
Plants also have Plant-specific versions of classic [[staple]] cards like "[[Solemn Judgment]]" and "[[Mirror Force]]", in the forms of "[[Pollinosis]]" and "[[Wall of Thorns]]", respectively. Plants have non-Plant support versions of "[[Marauding Captain]]" in the form of "[[Twilight Rose Knight]]", and a version of "[[Witch of the Black Forest]]" in the form of "[[Violet Witch]]".
  
Plants also have Plant version of [[staple]] cards like "[[Solemn Judgment]]" and "[[Mirror Force]]", in the forms of "[[Pollinosis]]" and "[[Wall of Thorns]]", respectively. The plants have a version of "[[Marauding Captain]]" in form of "[[Twilight Rose Knight]]", a version of "[[Witch of the Black Forest]]" in form of "[[Violet Witch]]" this cards are non-plant type monsters but their effects are used with the plant-type monsters. There are other plant cards very similar to other non plants cards, for example :"[[Dark Verger]]" and "[[Quillbolt Hedgehog]]". Other cards present similarities in the picture of the cards like "[[Wonder Clover]]" and "[[Break! Draw!]]".

Plant-Type monsters are used by [[Akiza Izinski]] in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]''. Her [[signature card]], "[[Black Rose Dragon]]", is considered a [[staple]] in Plant-Type Decks. Plant-Type monsters also appear in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]],'' used by [[Tombo Tillbitty]] and [[Lotus Hanazoe]]. Tombo plays with a "[[Tomato]]" deck, while Lotus plays a Plant deck with a focus on special summoning plants to XYZ Summon "[[Battlecruiser Dianthus]]," which is later ranked up to summon "[[CXyz Battleship Cherry Blossom]]".

This deck revolves around "Lonefire Blossom" and "Gigaplant" to help swarm the field. Make sure you use the effect of "Gigaplant" effectively in order to pull decent Synchro Monsters out while using "[[Queen of Thorns]]" to make your opponent pay life points to summon non-plant monsters. You could use "[[Tytannial, Princess of Camellias]]" and combo it with "Gigaplant" so you could tribute Plant monsters Special Summoned by "Gigaplant"'s effect to negate any cards that target your plant monsters. You can also keep the opponent at bay with powerful cards like "[[Wall of Thorns]]". This deck also uses "[[Pollinosis]]" or "Tytannial, Princess of Camellias" to negate Spells and Traps that destroy multiple monsters such as "[[Lightning Vortex]]" or "[[Mirror Force]]" or "[[Torrential Tribute]]", however, this can be entirely foiled with cards like "[[Zombie World]]" and "[[DNA Surgery]]", so be sure to pack in "[[Mystical Space Typhoon]]". This deck's ability to swarm the field quickly for fuel or for an all out attack can be foiled by cards like these.

The successor to the very popular Plant Synchro deck, Chaos Plants takes advantage of the LIGHT and DARK attributes of splashable monsters, such as "[[Sangan]]" and "[[Effect Veiler]]", to Summon "[[Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning]]", in combination with the Synchro abilities of Plants. It rarely uses enough Lights and Darks for it to be worth using "[[Chaos Sorcerer]]". Something to note is that it despite being called a "Plant" Deck, it often uses more [[Fiend]] monsters than Plants.

Lonefire Blossom
"Lonefire Blossom", a Plant monster.

Plant (しょくぶつ Shokubutsu) is a Type of monster.

Overview[edit]

As the name suggests, the Type mostly comprises of plants and plantlike monsters. Many Plant monsters have more down-to-Earth design, looking no different than plants in real life, while others are more fantastical, or contain some degree of non-plantlike traits such as appearing beastly or humanlike.

The usual Attributes associated with Plants are EARTH, WATER, and ironically FIRE. Plant cards usually revolve around massive swarming and regenerating back onto the field. Unlike Zombies, Plants are often used to fuel effects such as negations or as Special Summon material rather than for strictly attacking purposes. They have many cards that allow them to be Special Summoned from the Deck, hand, or Graveyard. Cards like "Lonefire Blossom", "Plant Food Chain", "Lord Poison", "Gigaplant", "The World Tree" and "Miracle Fertilizer" all add major support to bringing back a swarm of Plant monsters to overwhelm the opponent with sheer amount of usable resources. There are many good Plant Tuner monsters, like "Copy Plant" and "Spore". The Type's innate swarming capabilities have also give them noticeable edge in Link Summoning, with the "Sunavalon" archetype being specialized around capitalizing on that potential.

Plants also have Plant-specific versions of classic staple cards like "Solemn Judgment" and "Mirror Force", in the forms of "Pollinosis" and "Wall of Thorns", respectively. Plants have non-Plant support versions of "Marauding Captain" in the form of "Twilight Rose Knight", and a version of "Witch of the Black Forest" in the form of "Violet Witch".
