The '''Graveyard''' ({{Ruby|墓|ぼ}}{{Ruby|地|ち}} ''Bochi''), sometimes translated as '''Cemetery''' and sometimes (unofficially) referred to as the '''Graveyard Zone''' or simply '''Grave''', is the name for the card discard pile. Specific card(s) in the Graveyard can be recovered by using cards such as "[[Monster Reborn]]", "[[Magician of Faith]]" or other such cards with applicable effect(s). The Graveyard used to be placed directly above the [[Deck Zone]], until [[Series 9]] introduced 2 new [[Pendulum Zone]]s. Now it is placed directly above (or above and to the right of) the right Pendulum Zone. As per the Master Rule 4, the graveyard returns to its original position as with the removal of a separate Pendulum Zones.
The contents of either player's Graveyards are [[public knowledge]], unless a card like "[[Question]]" is used. When a player looks through any Graveyards, they may neither [[shuffle]] its contents, nor re-arrange the order in which the cards were placed there. In the video games, when a card is [[activate]]d in the Graveyard, or selected for a [[Card effect]], it immediately goes to the top of the Graveyard; this only exists for the purposes of clarification within those video games, and this game mechanic is not used in either the OCG or TCG.
