'''Insect''' (Japanese: {{Ruby|昆|こん}}{{Ruby|虫|ちゅう}} ''Konchū'') is a [[Type]] or [[Monster Card]]. It debuted in ''[[Vol.1]]'' in the ''[[OCG]]'', ''[[Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon]]'' in the ''[[TCG]]'', and ''[[Deck Mod Pack: Hyperspeed Rush Road!!]]'' in ''[[Rush Duel]]''.
+
'''Insect''' monsters are a versatile, and somewhat well-supported [[Type]] of Monster that go hand-in-hand with [[Plant]]-Type monsters. The common attributes associated with them is [[EARTH]] and [[WIND]]. They typically act like their namesake by swarming the field, and can sometimes prove to be quite an annoyance to players using their unique abilities.  There are not many extremely powerful high-level Insects besides "[[Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth]]" (which is typically considered too much of a chore to summon), but at lower Levels, Insects can completely dominate the field, due to the high [[ATK]] their lower-Level monsters often have for their Level as well as their ease in summoning. The list of support cards for this Type include: "[[Verdant Sanctuary]]", "[[Pinch Hopper]]", "[[Insect Imitation]]", and "[[Gigaplant]]".
  
==Overview==
+
Insect cards are most notably played by [[Weevil Underwood]], [[Missy]], [[Lenny]], [[Roman Goodwin]] and [[Jesse Anderson]] in the GX manga.
The Insect Type is depicted as variations of bugs, including both true insects, arachnids, and variations thereof. Certain monsters based on worms, ticks and other creepy-crawlers also appear. They range in shapes and forms, from relatively resembling real-life Insects (such as "[[Reed Butterfly]]"), humanoids (such as "[[Insect Knight]]"), to much more fantastical and weird (such as "[[Minar]]"). The common attributes associated with Insects are [[EARTH]] and [[WIND]], although there are Insects for every single Attribute in the game bar [[DIVINE]].
 
  
Insect is a versatile and somewhat well-supported Type that goes back to the early history of the game. They typically act like their namesake by swarming the field and replacing themselves when removed. A number of early Insect supports also pitch their synergistic relationship to go hand-in-hand with [[Plant]] monsters. While the recent support often bundled beneficial effect for both Types, thus allows some hybridization. The Type also contains a lot of low-Level monsters with powerful utility effects, or higher [[ATK]] for their Level.
+
Notable Insect Type monsters include "Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth", "[[Insect Queen]]", "[[Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab]]", "[[Chainsaw Insect]]", "[[Grasschopper]]", "[[Jirai Gumo]]", "[[Magical Merchant]]", "[[Man-Eater Bug]]", "[[Brain Crusher]]", "[[Needle Worm]]", "[[Ultimate Insect LV7]]", "[[Aztekipede, the Worm Warrior]]", "[[Earthbound Immortal Uru]]", "[[Doom Dozer]]", "Pinch Hopper", "[[Metal Armored Bug]]", and "[[Number 20: Giga-Brilliant]]".
  
==Themes==
+
There are three Insect [[archetype]]s: the "[[Worm]]s" (although several "Worm" monsters are [[Reptile]]-Type instead), "[[Butterfly Assassin]]", and the "[[Inzektor]]".
