== Trivia ==
* This show does introduce a new summoning method called Evolution Summoning, Evolution summoning worked by having an extra deck monster on the field(or ritual), then have a spell card out called Evolution and use the spell card to evolve your monster to a stronger monster. You can use this summoning method twice per duel. 
** Despite it introducing a new summoning method, the characters didn't use Evolution Summoning that much and was mainly used for dangerous situations, it wasn't even introduce to the show until season 2.
