The most well-known effect of "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra|The Winged Dragon of Ra's]]" Phoenix Mode is that any monster that battles with it will immediately be destroyed without even applying [[Damage Calculation]] (note: thanks to Ra's [[Instant Attack]] ability, this allows Phoenix to attack and destroy all the opponent's monsters). This effect was used by [[Marik Ishtar]] during his battles with [[Joey Wheeler]] (to destroy Joey's "[[Gilford the Lightning]]" in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 127|Ep.127]]) and [[Yugi Muto]] (to destroy Yugi's "[[Slifer the Sky Dragon]]" in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 139|Ep.139]] and again in a failed attempt to destroy his [[Obelisk the Tormentor]] in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 141|Ep.141]]).
