"Trapper Keeper, Part 2", known as "The Gem Beasts VS Hell Gundog" in the Japanese version, is the one hundred and sixteenth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime. It first aired in Japan on December 27, 2006, and in the US on August 4, 2007.

Jesse continues his Duel with Trapper and the latter resorts to more underhanded tactics.

Summary

The Duel between Jesse and Trapper continues. Jesse recalls meeting Maximillion Pegasus who gave him the "Crystal Beasts", stating they had chosen him. Since they were the ones who chose him, Pegasus had warned him this brought great responsibility. But since that day, Jesse has been able to see and speak with Duel Spirits, and therefore treats them as his family. After previously being outwitted by Trapper's traps, Jesse uses his "Crystal Beast" in order to trick the traps themselves, dealing crushing blows to Trapper. Before Jesse can claim victory, Trapper uses another Duel Spirit he captured as a bargaining chip, forcing Jesse to be on the defensive, otherwise the spirit will be destroyed. Luckily, Jaden comes to rescue and saves the spirit, allowing Jesse to claim victory and his Sapphire Pegasus. Trapper is then attacked by Duel Spirits he captured and disappears. But the duel takes it's toll on Jesse also, and he and Jaden are forced to wait for help from the others.

Featured Duel: Jesse Anderson vs. Trapper

Duel continues from the previous episode.

Turn 5: Trapper
Trapper sets 1 card.

Turn 6: Jesse
Jesse draws "Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger" and subsequently Normal Summons it (1600/1000) in Attack Position. Trapper then activates "Trap Hole" to destroy "Topaz Tiger". Jesse then activates the second effect of "Topaz Tiger" to place it in his Spell & Trap Card Zone as a Continuous Spell Card. Since Jesse has at least two Crystal Beasts in his Spell & Trap Card Zone, he activates "Rare Value" to send "Crystal Beast Cobalt Eagle" to the Graveyard and draw 2 cards ("E Force" and "M Force"). Jesse then activates "E Force" to Special Summon "Topaz Tiger" from his Spell & Trap Card Zone (1600/1000) in Attack Position. "Topaz Tiger" then attacks "Infernal Blasthound". Due to the first effect of "Topaz Tiger", it gains 400 ATK during the Damage Step only ("Topaz Tiger": 1600 → 2000/1000). "Topaz Tiger" then destroys "Infernal Blasthound" (Trapper 4000 → 3000).

Since "Infernal Blasthound" was destroyed, Trapper activates the second effect of "Infernal Blasthound" to Special Summon another "Infernal Blasthound" from his Deck (1000/500) in Attack Position. Jesse then activates "Triggered Summon" to Special Summon "Crystal Beast Emerald Turtle" from his hand (600/2000) in Attack Position. Jesse then activates "M Force" to increase the ATK of "Emerald Turtle" by 500 until the End Phase ("Emerald Turtle": 600 → 1100/2000). "Emerald Turtle" then attacks and destroys "Infernal Blasthound" (Trapper 3000 → 2900). Trapper then activates the second effect of "Infernal Blasthound" to Special Summon another "Infernal Blasthound" (1000/500) in Defense Position. Jesse then activates the effect of "Emerald Turtle" to switch it to Defense Position.

Turn 7: Trapper
Trapper draws "Pot of Avarice" and subsequently sets it.

Turn 8: Jesse
Jesse draws. He then switches "Emerald Turtle" to Attack Position. "Emerald Turtle" then attacks and destroys "Infernal Blasthound". "Topaz Tiger" then attacks Trapper directly (Trapper 2900 → 1300). Jesse then activates the effect of "Emerald Turtle" to switch it to Defense Position.

Turn 9: Trapper
Trapper draws "Lure Phantom" and subsequently Normal Summons it (0/0) in Defense Position.

Turn 10: Jesse
Jesse draws. He then switches "Emerald Turtle" to Attack Position. "Emerald Turtle" then attacks and destroys "Lure Phantom". Jesse is prepared to attack Trapper directly with "Topaz Tiger", but Trapper reveals the "Jerry Beans Man" card he stole from Tom and threatens to tear up the card if Jesse attempts to win. Jesse then activates the effect of "Emerald Turtle" to switch it to Defense Position.

Turn 11: Trapper
Trapper draws. He then activates "Pot of Avarice" to return his 3 "Infernal Blasthounds" and 2 "Lure Phantoms" to his Deck and draw 2 cards. Trapper then Normal Summons "Camouflage Gardna (400/1900) in Defense Position. Trapper then activates "Decoy Baby" to target "Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat" and place "Topaz Tiger" in his Spell & Trap Card Zone as well as place a Prey Counter on "Topaz Tiger". Trapper then activates "Substitute Pain". Now during each of Trapper's turns, this card will inflict 400 damage to Jesse for each card on Trapper's side of the field that has a Prey Counter on it. The effect of "Substitute Pain" then activates. Since Trapper has three cards on his side of the field with Prey Counters on them, "Substitute Pain" inflicts 1200 damage to Jesse (Jesse 1800 → 600).

Turn 12: Jesse
At this point, Jaden swoops down from above, kicks Trapper, and rescues the "Jerry Beans Man" card. Jesse is now free to end this Duel. Jesse draws "Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus" and subsequently Normal Summons it (1800/1200) in Attack Position. This action frees "Sapphire Pegasus" from the capsule he was in. Jesse then activates the effect of "Sapphire Pegasus" to take "Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle" from his Deck and place it in his Spell & Trap Card Zone as a Continuous Spell Card. Jesse then activates "Take Flight" to return all Crystal Beasts on the field except "Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus" to their owners' hands; "Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat", "Crystal Beast Amber Mammoth", "Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger", "Crystal Beast Emerald Turtle", and "Ruby Carbuncle" return to Jesse's hand.

Jesse then activates "GEM Burst" to remove from play "G Force", "E Force", and "M Force" from his Graveyard and place as many Crystal Beasts in his hand in his Spell & Trap Card Zone as Continuous Spell Cards as possible and inflict 500 damage to Trapper for each card placed this way. Jesse places all five of the Crystal Beasts in his Spell & Trap Card Zone as Continuous Spell Cards, so Trapper takes 2500 damage (Trapper 1300 → 0).

Jesse wins.

Mistakes

• In the dub, after Jaden knocks "Jerry Beans Man" from Trapper's clenches, the Life Points of both players are shown. Trapper is incorrectly shown to have 4000 Life Points when he really had 1300 (however, Jesse is correctly shown to have 600 Life Points).

• In the dub, when Jesse Summons "Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger" the Life Points bar is shown instead of the ATK bar.
