Synchro Materials are the requisite monsters needed to [[Synchro Summon]] the Synchro Monster. Each Synchro Monster lists its required Synchro Materials in the first line of its [[card text]]. ===Synchro Summoning===
{{Main|Synchro Summon}}
A [[Synchro Summon]] is the act of Summoning a Synchro Monster from the Extra Deck using a Tuner monster with additional non-Tuner monsters. During the Main Phase 1 or 2, the turn player can Synchro Summon a Synchro Monster from the Extra Deck by [[send]]ing monsters they control to the Graveyard (at least 1 Tuner and 1 or more non-Tuner monsters), provided the total Level of those monsters matches exactly the Level of that Synchro Monster.
===Multiple Tuner Synchro Alternate SummoningCondition===While most Synchro Monsters require exactly 1 Tuner to {{Main|Cannot be Synchro Summoned, "[[Red Nova Dragon]]", "[[Hot Red Dragon Archfiend King Calamity]]", "[[Tyrant Red Dragon Archfiend]]" and "[[Vylon Omega]]" [[Double Tuning|require 2]]. "[[XX-Saber Gottoms]]" must be Synchro Summoned using a Tuner and [[EARTH]] monsters, but it does not specify that the EARTH monsters must be non-Tuners. Therefore, up to 9 Tuner monsters can be used for its Synchro Summon. ===No Synchro Materials===A very small number of Synchro monsters [[cannot Can be Synchro Summoned]], and lists no Synchro Materials. Currently, all of the monsters belonging to this category are Special Summoned similar to a [[Dark either by Synchro Summon]] where the would-be materials' difference equal the printed [[Level]] of that exceptional Synchro monster.or by its own condition}}
