I'd argue it's one of the main reasons they should do it, trying to figure out how abilities with wildly different in universe mechanics could interact is super cool.
You can say this for several others they have done up till now, which still done despite each implications they all had along
The monsters are summoned via the cards, but the summoning is obviously restrained by rules, likely as part of the contract. Logically if the attack can do any physical damage the Pokemon aren't going to like it. The fact Ash only carries six Pokemon (unless they give him access to his entire PC of Pokemon) definitely is a weakness when Yugi has at least 40 cards, more than half of which are monsters.
As an aside, how much do you think Yugi just spitting bullshit is gonna matter? Like in the anime he just does whatever sometimes, independent of what cards and their effects actually do. I'm pretty sure he makes up a lot on the early series lol
I mean Yugioh cards are sent to the graveyard when destroyed, and need to be brought back to life afterwards. Depends on how equalized they're having the verses be, but they could just say that if a Pokemon is targeted by a trap or effect that would send a card to the graveyard, then they're just dead. No "revives" possible, since Pokemon only ever faint and don't actually die in typical battles
A battle between Ash's Lawyers and Yugi's IRL banned cards
You do know Ash also has to give commands? :V
Not nearly as much as Yugi tho. Pokemon are actual thinking beings, that can move on their own if their trainer is in trouble. Yugi doesn't really have that, does he? All of his monsters are just cards that need him to function at all
I mean yeah, they're able to use all of their stuff without the use of cards. The cards are a recent development in verse while the act of duel monsters battles has existed for thousands of years
just for reference, that's only when playing the game by the turn based rules, Bakura, who Yugi/Atem easily scales to can just summon his monsters out of the aether outside of the game rules and they'll act on their own (heck Dark magician and Dark Magician Girl were real people turned into monsters), like when he did so in Pegasus' castle, or during the Atlantis Arc where real monsters were being summoned all over. Alongside this, if Ash tries to attack outside of his own turn in a Shadow Game that could be counted as cheating and then he's screwed
If I recall correctly, Mind Crush is what's called a Penalty Game, which is a punishment that can only be used on the loser of a Shadow Game. Put it another way, Yugi can't freely use the ability, he has to beat the opponent in a game or contest first, or said opponent break the rules of the game. On the flipside Yugi can turn anything he wants into a Shadow Game, even something as simple as an exchange of words and he will be the one imparting the rules.
It would yes, in yugioh its treated as resurrection to bring them back, destruction is being dent to the graveyard, in. Dying
Lol, yeah, the Duelist Kingdom arc was become an absolute meme because of that. Now, to be fair, the card game per se didn't exist in real life yet and the rules in the manga changed constantly between arcs for the sake of spectacle, so it was less Yugi cheating and more Yugi being a good shonen protag and pulling new powers out of his buttocks. The actual rules weren't proerly finalized until the Battle City arc and the anime didn't faithfully follow the real life game until the GX series.
heck we see an example of this when Bakura turns them into their spirit cards and we see Joey LITERALLY die and be chased by the grim reaper before he's brought back to life with Monster Reborn
That is so f***ing Nintendo. I doubt something this deranged goes through, but if it does what? Goodbye Personas, goodbye Stands, goodby Summons, goodbye Partner Digimons and so on? Hell, maybe even goodbye sending troops into battle in a war simulation game?
yeah i think its way too far reaching and way beyond their scope to be legit
A few things
Debatable, but yugi can only do that after he beats someone
Yes but it's not in character for him to rig a game unless the opponent is evil. He'd make it as fair as possible for ash
The egyptian gods and his ace monsters get multiversal+ to low complex multiversal and infinite to immeasurable
Not at all, yugi has reactions on par with if not superior to anything ash's pokemon have shown
Interesting that Pegasus split some of the monsters' original powers into magic cards within his version of the game. Probably for balancing reasons.
Made it fitting that the big boss of the arc had toons in his deck
Not really related to the argument, but it's funny to think that that's supposed to be what the Graveyard was for, with monsters 'dying' and only coming back with very specific revives...but modern Yu-Gi-Oh IRL completely trivializes this because a lot of decks essentially treat the GY as a combo-dumping ground to rotate your monsters in and out of lmao.
In the anime it's sending them to hell or in some cases an alternate dimension, so it's more along the lines of BFR
So did Dragon Quest, the game that Nintendo stole half the gen 1 pokemon designs from
Yeah, or how Kuriboh constantly summoned itself from the middle of yugi's deck on its own
