Synchro Dragon
"Synchro Dragon" (シンクロ・ドラゴン Shinkuro Doragon) is an archetype of WIND monsters used by Yugo and Yuya Sakaki in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V anime. It is inherently related to the "Clear Wing" archetype. All members of this archetype are Dragon Synchro Monsters, except for the Spellcaster Pendulum Monster "White Wing Magician".

Playing styleEdit
"Synchro Dragon" monsters focus on negating the activation of a specific type or effect once per turn, then Synchro Monsters destroys said card. The monster may also gain ATK by negating and destroying this way or by other means.
With "Fusion Dragon", "Xyz Dragon" and "Pendulum Dragon"Edit
The play style offered by using the "Fusion Dragon", "Synchro Dragon", "Xyz Dragon" and "Pendulum Dragon" archetypes together is desgined to interact with the various Supreme King cards which support "Supreme King Z-ARC". Both "Astrograph Sorcerer" and "Chronograph Sorcerer" can banish monsters of the four archetypes to Summon "Supreme King Z-ARC". In contrast, "Soul of the Supreme King" is the complete reverse of this, which can Special Summon "Z-ARC" without using any materials (though its effects are negated) but it can banish "Z-ARC" to Special Summon monsters from the four archetypes. "Supreme King Gate Magician" can Special Summon itself from the hand by sending one monster of the four archetypes to proc its on-Special Summon effect to add of "Supreme King Z-ARC"'s support cards.
