'''Winged Beast''' ({{Ruby|鳥|ちょう}}{{Ruby|獣|じゅう}}{{Ruby|族|ぞく}} ''Chōjū-zoku'' "Bird Beast Tribe") [[Monster Card|monsters]] represent creatures of flight such as birds or bats. The "[[Harpie]]" [[archetype]], one of the most renowned, is comprised primarily of Winged Beasts. The "[[Blackwing]]" archetype is composed of [[DARK]] Winged Beast-[[Type]] monsters that were first released in ''[[Crimson Crisis]]'', with further support in ''[[Raging Battle]]'' and ''[[Ancient Prophecy]]''. Winged Beasts commonly have effects related to removing cards from the field, especially cards in the [[Spell & Trap Card Zone]], although some are designed instead to take advantage of an opponent without any cards in their Spell & Trap Card Zone once it has been cleared by the others. One fine example of a card making use of Winged Beast monsters is "[[Icarus Attack]]", being extremely popular in the aforementioned "Blackwing" decks. There is also another powerful archetype, the "[[Dragunity]]s", which team up with [[Dragon]]s in order to form "[[Dragunity Knights]]".

'''Winged Beast''' ({{Ruby|鳥|ちょう}}{{Ruby|獣|じゅう}} ''Chōjū'', lit. "Bird Beast") is a [[Type]] of [[Monster Card|monster]]. It first debuted with the game's first booster in both the ''[[OCG]]'' (''[[Vol.1]]'') and ''[[TCG]]'' (''[[Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon]]'').

==Overview==
 +
Winged Beast type usually represent creatures of flight, such as birds or bats, as well as other similar mythical creatures, such as [[wikipedia:Harpy|harpy]], [[wikipedia:Griffin|griffin]], and other winged creatures that does not fall under the [[Dragon]], [[Fiend]], or [[Fairy]] category. Some monsters who have a power of wind manipulation but does not have a wing (such as "[[Raiza the Storm Monarch]]") also falls under this category. The majority of Winged Beast monsters are [[WIND]], but there are also several [[DARK]] Winged Beast archetypes, such as "[[Blackwing]]" and "[[Raidraptor]]".
 +
 
 +
Historically, Winged Beast monsters (especially the lower-Level ones) usually have relatively low stats compared to the other Types, but is mostly compensated by its non-destruction removal effects. Typically with their bouncing effect to return the opponent's card to their hand and/or extra deck. Low-Level Winged Beasts were mostly capable at swarming the field or aiding its High-Level counterparts, while High-Level Winged Beast either have a strong protection (such as being immune to card effects) or a powerful removal effect.
 +
 
 +
Additionally, Winged Beast often shared their support with the [[Beast]] and [[Beast-Warrior]] types, thus allow some hybridization between the three Types. This is most evident thanks to the "[[Tri-Brigade]]" and "[[Fire King]]" archetypes.
