− | ==Versions==
| + | All [[Xyz Monster]]s, with special exceptions like the "[[Number]]s", are [[Xyz Summon]]ed through a red, spiralling portal. The [[Xyz Material]]s then become orbs of light which orbit the [[Xyz Monster]]. When [[detach]]ed by the [[player]], the orbs are absorbed by the [[Xyz Monster]] in its own specific way. |

− | The Overlay Network can be used for communication, as sound can travel through them. When used this way, the portal stays open until the message or conversation is finished transmitting.<ref name="ep60">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|60|ref}}</ref>

ARC-V]]'', instead of exploding, a column of blue lightning emerges from the center of the portal. Most [[Xyz Monster]]s are Xyz Summoned through a red, spiral-shaped portal, though "[[Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon (anime)|Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon]]" utilizes a pink one<ref name="ep43" /> and "[[Shark Fortress (anime)|Shark Fortress]]" a blue; a similar Network is used in ''Yu-Gi-Oh!

ZEXAL|13|ref}}</ref> In addition, the sealed form of the Summoned "Number" appears out of the portal first, before transforming itself into its true form (some "Number" monsters such as "[[Number 88: Gimmick Puppet of Leo (anime)|Number 88: Gimmick Puppet of Leo]]"<ref name="ep58">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!

− | When a Duelist performs an [[Xyz Evolution]] (whether through a "[[Rank-Up-Magic]]" card or otherwise), the Xyz Monster re-enters the Overlay Network before emerging from it in its upgraded form (usually but not always a "[[CXyz|Chaos Xyz]]" or "[[Number C|Chaos Number]]" monster).<ref name="ep74" /><ref name="ep18">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!

− | In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Tag Force 6]]'', all Xyz Monsters are depicted as using the standard red spiral portal. ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links]]'' and ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel]]'', conversely, uses the "Number" Overlay network for all Xyz Monsters, much like ARC-V.
