Hybrid Monsters

Fusion Monsters are colored orange, just like Effect Monsters may only be included in the Extra Deck, and cannot exist in the hand or Main Deck. If a Hybrid Monster is returned to its owner's hand or Deck, it is instead sent back to the Extra Deck. However, they may be sent to the Graveyard when destroyed, as well as removed from play.

A Hybrid monster is a card that consists of 1 monster and 1 or more Spell/ Trap cards. A Hybrid can only be Summoned by having the required Hybrid Material cards in your hand and then activating "Molecular Fusion." Hybrid's will always have an effect, usually a combination of the monsters and other Hybrid Material cards' effects. Hybrids are immune to the Spell/Trap Card that is hte other Hybrid Material card. Hybrids were first introduced in the FTCG booster pack, DNA Experimentation.

If a Hybrid Monster is Hybrid Summoned to the field, and then sent to the Graveyard, it cannot be Special Summoned to the field from the Graveyard with cards such as Premature Burial, Call of the Haunted, or Monster Reborn. In order for a Hybrid Monster to be returned from the Graveyard to the field, you must use Zombie Hybrid.

A Few Examples of Hybrids Are:

Clear Decoyroid
Endless Portal
Banisher of Souls
Blader of Light
Soulbane
