Type

A Type ((しゅ)ぞく (Shu)zoku) is a characteristic of a Monster Card. All monsters have one Type, such that monsters of the same Type can be grouped together (in a similar way to Attributes) and support cards can grant various effects to a specific Type of monster.

There are 25 different Types in the TCG and OCG. Two of these types are highly exclusive: the Divine-Beast-Type is shared only by the Egyptian Gods, and was originally considered illegal until tournament-legal versions of the Egyptian God Cards were released; and the Creator God-Type is exclusive to "Holactie the Creator of Light". A 26th Type, Immortal, only appears in Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses.

"Type" should not be confused with "type" (with a lowercase "t"), which refers to the three main types of cards: Monster, Spell, and Trap.

OCG/TCG

These Types exist within the OCG and TCG.

Type line formatting on printed cards
