Fun fact: yugi still had summon skull in hist deck in the beginning of battle city and he had red eyes when won it back from the rare Hunter. Yugi never fuesed them to make black skull dragon
I love the way the monsters were drawn in the earlier seasons of the OG anime. It really made them feel like powerful beasts. In the later seasons some of the monsters were drawn really derpy
Well, he had lost Red Eyes Black Dragon(temporarily) during Battle City and regained it after a duel with Yami/Atem(that was never shown. It had occurred at the end of Battle City and before the beginning of the Orichalcos arc.). By then, he had some newer cards in his deck, Gilford the Lightning and Jinzo.
This was such a Hype moment when i was younger! Something i wish they had done tho, is have Yugi give Joey his Summoned Skull (or do some trade) so Joey could fully utilize Black Skull Dragon, since Joey does have Polymerization in his deck too (at least in the near future) and Summoned Skull doesn't really do much in Yugi's deck after this duel, and especially in future Arc's like Battle City. And if you really wanted too, you could bring it back as a Yugi Deck monster in the Virtual World Arc, since they picked out cards from a virtual database. Hell, Yugi and even Joey could have picked up a Blue Eyes White Dragon for their deck if they wanted (would have Triggered Kaiba to death) but unfortunately they didn't. Missed opportunity imo. After all, Joey picked up a Cyber Harpie for 1 Duel, so they could have made really unique mix matched decks. Joey playing Exodia for example. But regardless, back to the original point at hand... Black Skull Dragon was severely under utilized, all because Joey never was given Yugi's Summoned Skull.
Well, Yugi and Joey Wheeler were both in the same team, and they were duelling against the paradox brothers. The duel took place in MAXIMILLION PEGASUS PALACE.
So Yugi first summon skull and then Joey Wheeler summoned the red eyes black dragon. Then, after Yugi seized the opportunity and merged the skull and the red eyes black dragon Which later becomes black skull dragon.
@@razor3535 But in the Virtual Reality Arc, they picked their decks from a Card Database. And they also excluded the Egyptian God cards, so they couldn't be used against the Big 5. Since they picked their decks from this long catalog database of cards, they could have literally chosen anything. I think even Exodia pieces were shown at some point. Joey even picked a card Mai had used in real life. Knowing this, it could have been possible for Joey, Tristan or even Serenity to have picked a Blue Eyes White Dragon for their Deck. But unfortunately for like 90% of the deck constructions, all of the characters stuck to cards they would normally have in real life.

That’s what I’m saying. What a waste especially since it’s more powerful than the blue eyes wd
It would have been great to see it again at the climax of Yugi and Kaiba's duel.
Red Eyes line had better art work than Blue Eyes.
My favourite fusion monster.
I wish this card had more alternative artworks but it never seems to get any attention in the real card game
Am I the only one who thinks Joey should’ve made a Fusion Deck after what happened in Duelist Kingdom?

Season 1's budget was noticably higher for some odd reason. 🤔
I wish Joey would use his red eye bd more like this in future duels. Summon skull and metal force were awesome combos and we never see them again.

There were only 4 Blue-Eyes White Dragons ever made, and Kaiba ripped up the one that wasn't in his deck if I'm not mistaken, but yeah I feel you

@@razor3535Pegasus should have gone and printed more just to troll Kaiba. Like he did with the Toon version.
