"Puppet" (パペット Papetto) is an archetype that includes two distinct themes: chess-themed EARTH Warrior monsters used by Reiko Kitamori in the Yu-Gi-Oh! R manga, and Spell and Trap Cards that support "Gimmick Puppets" (which were used by Quattro in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL anime). Effects that support "Puppet" cards support only one of the two themes at a time.
The only support for Reiko Kitamori's chess-themed "Puppet" archetype is "Promotion", which only affects "Puppet" monsters that are originally EARTH Warrior.
"Gimmick Puppet" monsters, and the "Puppet" Spell/Trap Cards that support them, are part of the "Puppet" archetype. However, the only support for "Gimmick Puppet"-themed cards as part of the "Puppet" archetype is "CXyz Gimmick Puppet Fanatix Makina", which only supports "Puppet" Trap Cards. In the anime, the anime-exclusive card "Puppet Repair" could Special Summon "Puppet" monsters from the Graveyard, and was exclusively used on "Gimmick Puppet" monsters.
Members[edit]
Chess-themed puppets[edit]
The intended members of the "Puppet" archetype in the card game (i.e. Reiko Kitamori's EARTH Warrior "Puppet" monsters) are each based on a chess piece. The archetype's sole support card, "Promotion", is based on the promotion mechanic in chess.

Additionally, the card text of the manga version of "Promotion" mentions the existence of a "Puppet Bishop" (based on the Bishop) and a "Puppet Knight" (based on the Knight), but they never appeared in the manga and have not been released in the OCG.
