A Fusion Monster can never be Normal Summoned, as it is impossible to put them in your hand. A Fusion Monster must be Special Summoned, be it Fusion Summon through Polymerization or similar, or a regular Special Summon by any card that can do it.
For Polymerization, the Fusion Components/ Fusion Material Monsters can either be in your hand or on the field, or a combination of both.
No, cards like 'Polymerization', 'Future Fusion', and 'Fusion Gate' cannot be used to summon any of the XYZ Fusion Monsters. These Fusion Monsters cannot be Fusion Summoned and requires you to banish the monsters listed on the Fusion Monster from your side of the field in order to Special Summon them.
Fusion Monsters that are summoned without using Polymerization (and similar) cannot be summoned via Future Fusion, meaning you can't select them for Future Fusion in the first place. Other monsters that this applies to are Gladiator Beast Heraklinos, Armityle the Chaos Phantom, and the Neos fusions such as Elemental HERO Dark Neos.
A Fusion Summon generally consists of two or more Fusion Material Monsters and the Spell Card Polymerization.Some Fusion Summons, such as Contact Fusion, do not require the use of Polymerization and can be fused as directed on the Fusion Monster.
Dark Paladin and Dark Flare Knight both list Dark Magician as a Fusion Material monster.
You always need 'something' to let you fuse monsters, be it, - Another kind of fusion card like Dark Fusion, or, - An active effect such as Fusion Gate, or, - A fusion monster that says it can fuse specifically without needing Polymerization.
For Polymerization, the Fusion Components/ Fusion Material Monsters can either be in your hand or on the field, or a combination of both.
A fusion deck are cards which need 2 or more cards to combine and a Polymerization to make the fusion card.E.G: Blue eyes ultimate dragon requires a Polymerization and 3 Blue eyes white dragons.All fusion cards require a Polymerization and atleast 2 monsters to make.With the addition of new cards requiring "contact fusion", which involves sending the fusion material monsters from the field to the graveyard (or the deck in the case of the gladiator beasts) or the dark fusion monsters, which require the card dark fusion, not all monsters have to be fused with polymerization.As well, there are various polymerization support cards such as super polymerization.
Yes, but you have to have the fusion elements.
No one card can Special Summon any Fusion Monster. Because some Fusion Monsters specify that they "cannot be Special Summoned except by a Fusion Summon", cards like "Metamorphosis" will not be able to Special Summon them. Even "Instant Fusion" cannot Special Summon Fusion Monsters that state "This card can only be Special Summoned from your Extra Deck by returning the above cards you control to the Deck."
The card text for "Fusion Gate" reads: As long as this card is face-up on the field, a Fusion Monster can be Special Summoned without using "Polymerization". The Fusion-Material monsters used in the Fusion are not sent to the Graveyard, but are removed from play.In other words, instead of having to activate the card "Polymerization" to Fusion Summon monsters, you activate the Field Spell (just like activating any optional card effect). You select the Fusion Monster in your Extra Deck and send Fusion Material monsters from your side of the field or hand out-of-play (just like "Polymerization", except the monsters aren't sent to the Graveyard) and Special Summon the Fusion Monster.
No, cards like 'Polymerization', 'Future Fusion', and 'Fusion Gate' cannot be used to summon any of the XYZ Fusion Monsters. These Fusion Monsters cannot be Fusion Summoned and requires you to banish the monsters listed on the Fusion Monster from your side of the field in order to Special Summon them.
Not all the time. Some fusion monsters have special summoning conditions. e.g: Elemental Hero Neos fusions can only be summoned by returning the fusion material monsters from the field to the deck. XYZ Dragon Cannon can only be summoned by removing the fusion material monsters on the field from play There are also other cards for monster fusion, here are a few examples and a URL for a full list and more info. http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Fusion_Monsters -Fusion Gate -Super Polymerization -Future Fusion
Fusion Gate means you can fuse monsters without using Polymerization, by removing the components from play. It does not otherwise modify the usual Fusion Summon rules, that the components must either be in your hand or on your side of the field.
Polymerization is used to Fusion Summon Fusion Monsters from your Extra Deck in Yu-Gi-Oh!. You do not create a "new" monster out of thin air. You must have included the Fusion Monster you are trying to Summon in your Extra Deck. You must also fuse the monsters that are listed on the Fusion Monster.To Fusion Summon a Fusion Monster, you activate Polymerization (unless specifically stated otherwise, such as on XYZ-Dragon Cannon) and send the appropriate Fusion Material Monsters to the Graveyard (from your Hand or your side of the field). Once this criteria is met, place the appropriate Fusion Monster on the field in face-up Attack or Defense Position. Note that this is treated as a Fusion Summon.PolymerizationSPELL/NormalSend Fusion Material Monsters that are listed on a Fusion Monster Card from your Hand or your side of the field to the Graveyard, and Special Summon that Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck.
Fusion Monsters that are summoned without using Polymerization (and similar) cannot be summoned via Future Fusion, meaning you can't select them for Future Fusion in the first place. Other monsters that this applies to are Gladiator Beast Heraklinos, Armityle the Chaos Phantom, and the Neos fusions such as Elemental HERO Dark Neos.
