Card Name[edit]

I doubt, Konami will call this card Doppleganger. The Organization still calls this card Mimicat. http://ygorganization.com/duelist-news-mimicat/ Kaos45 (talkcontribs) 20:52, April 17, 2015 (UTC)

The Organization is not affiliated with Konami. Their use of "Mimicat" comes from the name used in The Duelists of the Roses, seen here. That being said, you're right, since an almost identical card exists in the TCG called "Doppelganger", and "Copycat" is also taken. I'm not sure we should move this article without any confirmation, though. Technically "Doppleganger" (this card) and "Doppelganger" are still different words, and KoA could opt to use the former, even if it is confusing. Although, The Duelists of the Roses name could be seen as enough evidence to move it...--YamiWheeler (talkcontribs) 21:13, April 17, 2015 (UTC)
They could call it Copy Cat or Doppel Cat/Doppelcat. --MasterMarik (talkcontribs) 21:50, April 17, 2015 (UTC)
"Mimicat" is better than either of those, IMO.--YamiWheeler (talkcontribs) 21:53, April 17, 2015 (UTC)
Thanks Yami, Duelists of the Roses is the best evidence we have for this card's name! Kaos45 (talkcontribs) 22:47, April 17, 2015 (UTC)
There's also the issue of "Doppleganger" not being a word (since "Doppelganger" is the proper spelling). Thirteenth Chimera!! (talkcontribs) 23:28, April 17, 2015 (UTC)
Neither is "antiluminescent," but that didn't stop them.--YamiWheeler (talkcontribs) 23:44, April 17, 2015 (UTC)
Retract my statement. Apparently on the official website, they have the card listed as such. Sorry, but wow. I guess that leans to no name change. (Also, providing the wrong spelling of a word to players will have... ill side effects, but I digress.) Thirteenth Chimera!! (talkcontribs) 07:20, April 19, 2015 (UTC)
Is this webpage our only evidence for the spelling "Doppleganger"? Looks like a typo to me. Even the manga uses the correct spelling.. -- Alkimyai (talkcontribs) 16:04, April 27, 2015 (UTC)
It might be a deliberate mispelling because a card called Doppelganger already exists. --MasterMarik (talkcontribs) 17:57, April 27, 2015 (UTC)
