'''Synchro Monsters''' are a type of [[Monster Card]], first released in [[Starter Deck 2008]]. The color of their card frame is white. These cards are placed in the [[Extra Deck]].
To be Summoned, Synchro Monsters require '''[[Tuner Monsters]]''' to be face-up on your Field. When the total [[Level]] of the Tuner monster and any other face-up monsters on your Field exactly matches the Level of the Synchro Monster you wish to Summon (no more or less), by sending them to the [[Graveyard]], you can "Synchro Summon" the Synchro monster. Some Synchro Monsters require a specific "[[Tuner Monsters|Tuner Monster]]" in order to be Synchro Summoned (such as "[[Junk Synchron]]" for "[[Junk Warrior]]") or monsters of a particular [[Type]] or [[Attribute]] as Material Monsters, but many do not, so they can be in just about any Extra Deck.
Because Synchro Monsters belong in the Extra Deck, they return there whenever they would be returned to the hand or [[Main Deck]], like [[Fusion Monsters]] before.<sup><font class=plainlinks>[http://yugioh.faq.konami.jp/EokpControl?&lang=en&tid=43677&event=FE0006 ref]</font></sup> Also, like Fusion Monsters, they cannot be Special Summoned from the Graveyard if they were not properly Synchro Summoned first.
Some players have begun to use the term 'Synchronize,' 'Sync,' or 'Tune/Tuning' to then list which [[Tuner Monsters|Tuner Monster]] and non-Tuner monsters will be sent to the Graveyard when they perform a [[Synchro Summon]] and summoning a Synchro Monster.
(i.e. "I Tune my 'Quillbolt Hedgehog' [LV2] and 'Speed Warrior' [LV2] with my 'Junk Synchron' [LV3] to Synchro Summon 'Junk Archer' [LV7, requires 'Junk Synchron' as the Tuner]!")
