The '''Shadow Realm''' was alleged to be a place of eternal suffering where people could be sent to, explicitly designed by [[4Kids Entertainment]] for the dubbed version of the [[Yu-Gi-Oh!

The more monsters, the more energy it seems to require. In [[Yugi Muto]] and Pegasus's final Duel, [[Yami Yugi]] had to take over for the large portion because of the strain it had caused Yugi. In [[Joey Wheeler]] and [[Yami Marik|Yami Marik's]] Duel, Joey would have won if he hadn't collapsed after "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (anime)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]]'s" attack took away the rest of his stamina. ==Japanese version=es_name =Escaraballería Buggy ExploradorThe Shadow Realm as presented in the English language version of the anime does not exist in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh!

This was less permanent than killing the character, as it was established that it is possible to retrieve a soul from the Shadow Realm.
