Alister Alister , known as Amelda in the Japanese version , is one of the main antagonists in the Waking the Dragons story arc of the Yu - Gi - Oh ! second series anime along with Valon , Rafael , Dartz , and the Great Leviathan . After all of Doma was free from the Great Leviathan , they redeemed themselves . Alister often quarrels with Valon because of each one ' s personal reasons to go after each one ' s target ( in the dub , they argued over whose target was stronger ) . Alister also bought over half of Seto Kaiba ' s company but it ' s unclear whether he used Maximillion Pegasus ' s money or money from the Paradius corporation . Design . Appearance . Alister ' s usual outfit consists of a large open full - body coat with padded shoulders and belted sleeves , a cropped top ( that reveals his midsection ) and fingerless gloves with studded knuckles . His Orichalcos Stone is worn on a piece of lace around his neck . He carries a Chaos Duel Disk . Voice and mannerisms . In the dub , he has a habit of making fun of the lesser members of Doma by calling them names . He called Gurimo " geezer " and " old man " , Rex Raptor and Weevil Underwood " twerps " and " nimrods " , and Mai Valentine " Little Miss Loudmouth " . Etymology . His dub name was based on , the British occultist who created the Unicursal Hexagram , the symbol used for " The Seal of Orichalcos " . The obscurity of this fact is most likely why it wasn ' t changed in the dub . Biography . Waking the Dragons . When Alister was a child , the country he lived in was torn apart by war . In the dub , KaibaCorp bought the land from the city . When the residents refused to leave , Gozaburo Kaiba decided to force them out . Many were forced to dig tunnels and steal food to survive . Alister and his brother managed to survive . In the original , there was a war going on between two countries and Gozaburo Kaiba supplied the weapons to both sides . In the English dub , Alister ' s mother ( seen only briefly during the 150th episode inside his locket ) and his brother , Mikey , were eventually captured . In the Japanese version , his brother was killed when the tank he was in blew up . Alister has hated Seto Kaiba ever since and has designated him as his target . Dartz found him and offered him the chance to join his organization . Unknown to Alister , Dartz had disguised himself as Gozaburo Kaiba and was responsible for the attack . One of Alister ' s treasured keepsakes is his brother ' s broken action figure , Dyna Dude , from the monster " Air Fortress Ziggurat " ( for this monster , Dyna Dude is a robot token ) . Alister is involved in two Duels , both of which are against Seto Kaiba . In the first one , Alister disguises himself as Maximillion Pegasus and challenges Kaiba . Halfway through the Duel , Alister pulls off his disguise and reveals his true identity and motivation after Kaiba deduces that he ' s not the real Pegasus . The Duel ends in a DRAW . In the second Duel , Alister disguises himself as a pilot and takes off with Kaiba on board . Halfway through the flight , Alister puts the plane on autopilot and challenges Kaiba again . When Kaiba gained the upper hand , Alister decided not to end his turn so the plane crash would kill him , Kaiba and Mokuba ( in the dub , the seal would absorb all three of them if the plane crashed ) . In the end , Alister fails due to Kaiba using " Fang of Critias " to win the Duel and the Legendary Dragons saving the plane . As the seal takes his soul , Alister sees Mokuba as his brother and gives him his brother ' s Dyna Dude action figure before collapsing . Grand Championship . He has another possible appearance at the end of the Grand Championship arc in the background by the during the celebrations of Yugi Muto ' s victory over Leon von Schroeder . Dawn of the Duel . He appears at the end of the Dawn of the Duel arc during Pegasus ' monologue , most likely searching for survivors from his town ( or in the dub , his family ) . Deck . Alister utilizes three Deck s during the series . The first is a " Toon " Deck , used while he was masquerading as Maximillion Pegasus when Seto Kaiba came to confront him , and is Pegasus ' own Deck . The Deck focuses on the Toon monster s , which are immune to destruction in battle and can attack directly . After Kaiba destroy s " Toon World " with " A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon " , Alister reveals himself and begins to use his second Deck , a Gorlag Deck from his own Chaos Duel Disk . This Deck focuses on " Gorlag " , who Special Summon s any monster it destroys to Alister ' s field as a FIRE Attribute monster , raising its ATK for each FIRE monster on the field . Alister further supports " Gorlag " with " Aetonyx Flame " and " Fire Whip " . When Alister next encounters Kaiba , he uses an Army Deck of Machine - Type monsters that reflect the incident that happened in Alister ' s past where KaibaCorp - financed troops destroyed his village and killed his brother . Alister ' s ace monster in this Deck is " Air Fortress Ziggurat " , his most powerful monster with 2500 ATK , and that spawns a " Robot Token " every turn , reminiscent of his brother ' s favorite toy .
