'''Egyptian God Phoenix''' (or "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra|The Winged Dragon of Ra's]]" "Phoenix Mode") is one of three forms of "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra]]". It can only achieve this form if it [[Special Summon]]ed from the [[Graveyard]]. In this form, neither "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra]]" nor its [[control]]ler receive [[Damage#Battle Damage|Battle Damage]]. It is feasible to say that "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra]]", while in this mode, is "immortal" since an Egyptian God is immune to most card effects in the anime.
The most well-known effect of "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra|The Winged Dragon of Ra's]]" Phoenix Mode is that any monster it battles will be destroyed at the [[Costs|Cost]] of 1000 [[Life Points]]. This effect was used on by [[Marik Ishtar]] during his battles with Joey's "[[Gilford the Lightning]]" by Marik ([[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 127]]) and again on Yugi's "[[Slifer the Sky Dragon]]" and "[[Obelisk the Tormentor]]" once again by Marik. "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra]]" may remain on the field in this mode for only one turn, after which it goes back to the [[Graveyard]].
This effect was also used on [[Jaden]] in [[Yu-Gi-Oh GX]] by [[Franz]]. This time, "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra]]" wasn't Special Summoned from the graveyard and "Egyptian God Phoenix" destroyed all of Jaden's monsters. It then reversed right away to its original mode and proceeded with a direct attack, hinting that "Egyptian God Phoenix's" effect is not considered an attack, nor does "The Winged Dragon of Ra" stay in that mode for an entire turn in this series.
