'''"Double Trouble Duel, Part 3"''', known as '''"The Fiend Dragon - Black Demons Dragon"''' in the Japanese version, is the twenty-first episode of the [[Yu-Gi-Oh!

==Summary==
−
In the duel, the Paradox Brothers order [[Gate Guardian]] to attack [[Flame Swordsman]], but Yugi activates [[Mirror Force]]. [[Gate Guardian]] is not destroyed, but [[Monster Tamer]] is. Joey tries to attack [[Gate Guardian]], but fails. His [[Flame Swordsman]] is destroyed. Yugi uses the water [[Suijin]] released to his advantage by having [[Summoned Skull]] attack it with its electrical attack while Suijin was trapped by [[Spellbinding Circle]]. Suijin is destroyed.  
+
[[Joey Wheeler|Joey]] [[Summon]]s "[[Red-Eyes B. Dragon (anime)|Red-Eyes Black Dragon]]" and [[Yugi Muto|Yugi]] activates "[[Polymerization (anime)|Polymerization]]" to form "[[Black Skull Dragon (anime)|Black Skull Dragon]]" by fusing "Red-Eyes Black Dragon" with "[[Summoned Skull (anime)|Summoned Skull]]. This monster helps them win the duel even with the no-flying zone rule mentioned by the brothers.
  
−
Joey Summons [[Red-Eyes B. Dragon|Red-Eyes Black Dragon]] and Yugi activates [[Polymerization]] to form [[B. Skull Dragon|Black Skull Dragon]], which has more [[ATK]] than the two remaining pieces. However, the [[Labyrinth Wall]] is a no-flying zone, so it can't move anywhere. Dox uses [[Riryoku]], taking half of Yugi and Joey's [[Life Points]] and adding them to the [[ATK]] of [[Sanga of the Thunder]] and [[Kazejin]], but Joey counters with [[Copycat]] and does the same thing with [[B. Skull Dragon|Black Skull Dragon]].  
+
Yugi and Joey now have 10 [[Star Chip]]s each. However, they must still choose one of the brothers' doors, and Yugi still does not trust either brother. He has correctly guessed that the brothers can alter the real-life labyrinth, ensuring that whichever door their enemies choose does not lead to freedom.
  
−
Yugi moves his [[Dark Magician]] to the end of the maze and activates [[Monster Replace]], switching the [[Dark Magician]] and [[B. Skull Dragon]]. The dragon attacks the [[Gate Guardian]], destroying it and winning the Duel for Joey and Yugi. They now have 10 star chips each. However, they must still choose one of the brothers' doors, and Yugi still does not trust either brother. He has correctly guessed that the brothers can alter the real-life labyrinth, ensuring that whichever door their enemies choose does not lead to freedom.
+
However, Yugi does not mention this realization right away. He holds up two coins, each of which bears the emblem of Para or of Dox. He holds them in his fists, saying he will open one hand, and the concealed coin will be the chosen door. He opens one hand, and when the brothers see the Dox mark, they accept his apparent selection of the Para door. Then they smile and reveal that the Dox door was correct all along. At this point, Yugi reveals their secret, and he opens his other hand, showing the Dox coin. The first coin had been marked with one emblem on each side. Because the brothers fell into their own trap - a hand that can tell lies - the friends are free.

−
[[Para]] has just used the top-section of "[[Gate Guardian]]" (aka "[[Sanga of the Thunder]]": 2600 [[ATK]] / 2200 [[DEF]]) to [[attack]] "[[Flame Swordsman]]", but [[Yami Yugi|Yami]] [[activate]]s "[[Mirror Force]]" to reflect the attack back at Para's and Dox's monsters, however [[Para]] [[activate]]s "[[Kazejin]]'s" [[Card effect|effect]] from 'inside' "[[Gate Guardian]]", protecting "[[Gate Guardian]]" from being destroyed by the deflected attack. The attack reflected by "[[Mirror Force]]" still [[destroy]]s "[[Monster Tamer]]", and Para is dealt damage equal to the difference between the attack's power and the [[destroy]]ed [[Monster Card|monster]]'s ATK ([[Para]] 1700 → 900).
+
"Sanga of the Thunder" [[attack]]s "Flame Swordsman", but Yugi [[activate]]s his face-down "[[Mirror Force (anime)|Mirror Force]]" to reflect the attack back at Para's and Dox's [[Monster Card|monster]]s. Para activates the [[Card effect|effect]] of "[[Kazejin (anime)|Kazejin]]" to reduce the [[battle damage]] to "Gate Guardian" to 0, but the reflected attack still [[destroy]]s "Monster Tamer", and Para receives damage equal to the difference between the [[ATK]] of the attacking "Sanga of the Thunder" and the destroyed "Monster Tamer" (Para: 1700 → 900 LP).

−
Dox Uses the bottom-section of "[[Gate Guardian]]" (aka "[[Suijin]]": 2500 [[ATK]] / 2400 [[DEF]]) to [[attack]] "[[Flame Swordsman]]". Visually, the attack literally 'floods' the maze with water, sweeping everything in its path. "[[Dark Magician]]" is protected by "[[Magical Hats]]". Since "[[Flame Swordsman]]" is weak against [[WATER|water]] [[attack]]s, he loses 300 ATK ("[[Flame Swordsman]]: 2500 → 2200 [[ATK]] / 1600 DEF). "[[Suijin]]'s [[attack]] [[destroy]]s "[[Flame Swordsman]]" ([[Joey Wheeler|Joey]] 1600 → 1300).

[[Yami Yugi|Yami]] draws. He then [[Set]]s 1 card. Next he [[Normal Summon]]s "[[Summoned Skull]]" (2500 [[ATK]] / 1200 [[DEF]]) in [[Attack Position]] as Yami is determined. Exploiting the trail of water left by "[[Suijin]]'s" attack, "[[Summoned Skull]]" electrically [[attack]]s the bottom-section of "[[Gate Guardian]]" (aka "[[Suijin]]": 2500 [[ATK]] / 2400 [[DEF]]) without being adjacent to it. [[Yami Yugi|Yami]] then reveals that by flooding the maze, [[Suijin|Suijin's]]" attack, the previous turn, [[activate]]d "[[Spellbinding Circle]]". It prevents "[[Gate Guardian]]'s" sections from activating their special effects and decreases their [[ATK]] by 700 ("[[Sanga of the Thunder]]": 2600 → 1900 [[ATK]] / 2200 DEF) ("[[Kazejin]]": 2400 → 1700 [[ATK]] / 2200 DEF) ("[[Suijin]]": 2500 → 1800 [[ATK]] / 2400 DEF).

Skull Dragon|Black Skull Dragon]]" in [[Attack Position]] (3200 [[ATK]] / 2500 [[DEF]]). The Paradox Brothers then mention a special rule: the Labyrinth is a no-flying zone, i.e. flying monsters cannot move through it, therefore "B. Skull Dragon" is unable to move any spaces.

"Double Trouble Duel, Part 3", known as "The Fiend Dragon - Black Demons Dragon" in the Japanese version, is the twenty-first episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! second series anime. It first aired in Japan on September 12, 2000 and in the United States on March 30, 2002.

Summary[edit]

Joey Summons "Red-Eyes Black Dragon" and Yugi activates "Polymerization" to form "Black Skull Dragon" by fusing "Red-Eyes Black Dragon" with "Summoned Skull. This monster helps them win the duel even with the no-flying zone rule mentioned by the brothers.

Yugi and Joey now have 10 Star Chips each. However, they must still choose one of the brothers' doors, and Yugi still does not trust either brother. He has correctly guessed that the brothers can alter the real-life labyrinth, ensuring that whichever door their enemies choose does not lead to freedom.

However, Yugi does not mention this realization right away. He holds up two coins, each of which bears the emblem of Para or of Dox. He holds them in his fists, saying he will open one hand, and the concealed coin will be the chosen door. He opens one hand, and when the brothers see the Dox mark, they accept his apparent selection of the Para door. Then they smile and reveal that the Dox door was correct all along. At this point, Yugi reveals their secret, and he opens his other hand, showing the Dox coin. The first coin had been marked with one emblem on each side. Because the brothers fell into their own trap - a hand that can tell lies - the friends are free.

Down in Pegasus's dungeon, Seto Kaiba finds Mokuba, but is soon confronted by Pegasus, who uses his Millennium Eye to lock Mokuba's soul in a card. He tells Kaiba that if he wants to see Mokuba again, he must defeat Yugi.

Featured Duel: Yami Yugi and Joey Wheeler vs. Paradox Brothers[edit]

Duel continues from the previous episode.

Yugi has 800 LP remaining, and controls "Dark Magician" (2500/2100) in Attack Position hidden under "Magical Hats" and 2 Set cards.
Joey has 1600 LP remaining, and controls "Flame Swordsman" (2500/1600) in Attack Position equipped with "Salamandra" and no Set cards.
Para has 1700 LP remaining, and controls "Sanga of the Thunder" (2600/2200) and "Monster Tamer" (1800/1600) both in Attack Position and no Set cards.
Dox has 1600 LP remaining, and controls "Suijin" (2500/2400) and "Kazejin" (2400/2200) both in Attack Position, combined with "Kazejin" as "Gate Guardian", "Labyrinth Wall" and no Set cards.

Turn 23: Para
"Sanga of the Thunder" attacks "Flame Swordsman", but Yugi activates his face-down "Mirror Force" to reflect the attack back at Para's and Dox's monsters. Para activates the effect of "Kazejin" to reduce the battle damage to "Gate Guardian" to 0, but the reflected attack still destroys "Monster Tamer", and Para receives damage equal to the difference between the ATK of the attacking "Sanga of the Thunder" and the destroyed "Monster Tamer" (Para: 1700 → 900 LP).

Turn 24: Joey
"Flame Swordsman" attacks "Kazejin", but Dox activates the effect of "Suijin" to reduce the battle damage to 0.

"Flame Swordsman" gets washed away by "Suijin's" flood attack.

Turn 25: Dox
"Suijin" attacks "Flame Swordsman". Visually, the attack literally 'floods' the maze with water, sweeping everything in its path. "Dark Magician" is protected by "Magical Hats", but since "Flame Swordsman" is weak against water attacks, it loses 300 ATK ("Flame Swordsman": 2500 → 2200/1600). "Suijin" destroys "Flame Swordsman" (Joey: 1600 → 1300 LP).

Turn 26: Yami Yugi

Yugi draws. He then Sets a card and Normal Summons "Summoned Skull" (2500/1200) in Attack Position. Using the trail of water left by "Suijin's" attack, "Summoned Skull" electrically attacks "Suijin" without being adjacent to it.

The water conducts "Summoned Skull's" attack.

Dox tries to activate the effect of "Kazejin" to reduce the battle damage to 0, but Yugi activates his face-down "Spellbinding Circle", which prevents the sections of "Gate Guardian" from activating their effects, attacking or changing their battle positions, and decreases their ATK by 700 ("Sanga of the Thunder": 2600 → 1900/2200, "Kazejin": 2400 → 1700/2200, "Suijin": 2500 → 1800/2400). "Summoned Skull" destroys "Suijin" (Dox: 1600 → 900 LP).

Turn 27: Para
Para activates "Remove Trap" to destroy "Spellbinding Circle" ("Sanga of the Thunder": 1900 → 2600/2200, "Kazejin": 1700 → 2400/2200).

Turn 28: Joey
Joey draws "Red-Eyes B. Dragon" and subsequently Normal Summons it (2400/2000) in Attack Position. Yugi then activates "Polymerization" to fuse "Summoned Skull" with "Red-Eyes B. Dragon" and Fusion Summon "Black Skull Dragon" (3200/2500) in Attack Position. The Paradox Brothers then mention a special rule: the Labyrinth is a no-flying zone (i.e. flying monsters cannot move through it), therefore "Black Skull Dragon" is unable to move any spaces.

Turn 29: Dox
Dox draws "Riryoku" and subsequently activates it to halve Yugi's and Joey's Life Points (Yugi: 800 → 400 LP, Joey: 1300 → 650 LP) and add them to the ATK of "Gate Guardian's" remaining parts ("Sanga of the Thunder": 2600 → 3000/2200, "Kazejin": 2400 → 3050/2200). Because he activated "Riryoku", Dox must end his turn.

Turn 30: Yami Yugi
Yugi draws. He then releases "Dark Magician" from the "Hat" it was under, then moves it to the end of the labyrinth, right in front of "Gate Guardian". He then activates "Monster Reborn" to Special Summon "Suijin" (2500/2400) from Dox's Graveyard to his side of the field in Defense Position.

Turn 31: Para
Para begins his turn without waiting to find out what monster Yugi revived. "Gate Guardian" attacks "Dark Magician", but Yugi activates the effect of "Suijin" to reduce the battle damage to 0.

Turn 32: Joey
Joey draws "Copycat" and subsequently activates it as a Spell Card. He then uses the effect of "Copycat" to activate the effect of "Riryoku" as its effect, halving the Paradox Brothers' Life Points (Para: 900 → 450 LP, Dox: 900 → 450 LP) and adding them to the ATK of "Black Skull Dragon" ("Black Skull Dragon": 3200 → 4100/2500) (NOTE: In the anime, Black Skull Dragon's ATK only went up to 4000).

Turn 33: Dox
"Kazejin" attacks "Suijin", but Yugi activates the effect of "Suijin" to reduce the battle damage to 0. "Sanga of the Thunder" attacks and destroys "Suijin" (as the effect of "Suijin" can only be used once per turn).

Turn 34: Yami Yugi
Yugi activates his face-down "Monster Replace" to make "Dark Magician" and "Black Skull Dragon" switch locations. "Black Skull Dragon" attacks and destroys "Gate Guardian" (Para: 450 → 0 LP, Dox: 450 → 0 LP).
