Fandoms are often overlapping, as fans of one show or game may be fans of another as well, and aPokemonfan recently created a party based aroundYu-Gi-Oh. This party feels more like one of Seto Kaiba’s decks than an averagePokemonparty, and it captures the essence of the cards he plays with.
A Redditor known as Tophtootough recently posted aYu-Gi-Oh-themedPokemonteam that they created to thePokemoncommunity page. This combination of two popular anime stimulated the interest of several fans of both series. The team of Pokemon is comprised of a trio of Reshiram, Spiritomb, Golurk, and Hydreigon.

According to the Redditor, the Seto Kaiba Pokemon party has three Reshiram who represent the three Blue-Eyes White Dragons that Kaiba typically uses in a duel.Yu-Gi-Ohfeatures Fusion, which allows monsters to combine together to create more powerful monsters — afeature that’s absent fromPokemon. With Fusion in mind, Tophtootough’s idea is that the three Reshiram are combined to create the three-headed Hydreigon which represents Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon.
While many Redditors weren’t quick to realize what card that Spiritomb represented, Tophtootough confirmed that the ghost-dark type Pokemon represents a trap card.Yu-Gi-Oh’s Seto Kaiba often uses a trap cardknown as Crush Card Virus that allows Kaiba to destroy a powerful card in his opponent’s hand. Spiritomb represents the Crush Card Virus trap card. Finally, Golurk is a ground-ghost type Pokemon that represent Seto Kaiba’s Egyptian God card known as Obelisk the Tormentor.
Seto Kaiba beganYu-Gi-Ohas a villain and slowly transitioned to becoming a hero through his extensive character ark. ThisPokemonparty may be the ultimate representation of Seto Kaiba in the Pokemon franchise, but it’s still missing the heart of the cards. Although Kaiba is awealthy TCG fan in theYu-Gi-Ohfranchise, Tophtootough didn’t have a party of shiny Pokemon like Kaiba would have a party of shiny cards. Three Blue-Eyes White Dragon cards being used in aYu-Gi-Ohduel may be a necessary measure to summoning Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, but a team of three Reshiram will never be allowed at the competitive level of Pokemon.
Many other Redditors took to the comments on this post to suggest otherPokemonthat would fit well in thisYu-Gi-OhSeto Kaiba-themedparty that Tophtootough created. One of the suggestions is that the Redditor use Mr. Mime as thisPokemonparty’s version of Saggi the Dark Clown and Peten the Dark Clown which Seto Kaiba both included in his deck. One witty Redditor suggested that Mega Gallade should be included in thisPokemonparty as a representation of Seto Kaiba himself.
