    Gemini Monsters are a somewhat new type of monster that most people are unfamiliar with. These monsters are treated as normal monsters but also have an effect that must be released.

    The Basics:
    1. Gemini Monsters can be normal summoned during the main phase.
    2. Gemini Summons count as a normal summon.
    3. In order to release a Gemini Monster's effect you must summon it again.
    Example:
    -You summon Giga Plant by tributing a monster
    Spoiler:
    - Gigaplant will be treated as a normal monster with 2400 ATK for the remainder of this turn.
    - If Gigaplant was not destroyed during the first turn it was summoned, you can then Gemini Summon it on your next turn.
    - Since Gemini summons count as a normal summon, if you gemini summon you will not be able to normal summon or set anything the turn you gemini summon Gigaplant.
    - Once Gemini summoned Gigaplant's effect will be usable and you will be able to special summon plant type monsters from your grave.
    4. Gemini monsters are treated as normal monsters in your graveyard.
    5. Gemini monsters are only considered effect monsters on the field, once they have been properly gemini summoned, in your hand, and in your grave.
    6. Gemini summoning does not start a chain, however they can be chained with cards like Bottomless Trap Hole and Torrential Tribute.

    Personal tips:.

    Gemini monsters may seem like a drag to run, but their effects are overpowered and can be tough to deal with once they are successfully gemini summoned. Since Gemini monsters only count as normal monsters in your grave you can't use cards like ancient rules that allow you to special summon a normal monster. However you can use cards like Birthright and Symbols of Duty to bring them back from the grave. You can also use cards like Gemini Summoner which allow you to special summon a Gemini monster during your opponent's End Phase for 500 LP, and will set up for a successful Gemini Summon.

    I got a question DJD.
    I was testing my gemini deck with Gothicmess and i used evocator chevalier effect to destroy 1 card of his field by sending supervise to the grave.

    As mentioned before Yusei, since Supervice is a mandatory effect you do not miss the timing and are able to special summon a monster if you have one in the grave.

    who says you can? O_o what happened? When you send vise to the grave with chevalier you get to special summon an eligible monster if that's what you're asking.

    I have a question, If you tribute summon it and after that you play Double Summon, it can be geminized the same turn it is summoned?

    You can, this card will give you your "Right" to Normal summon once again in the same turn.

    Hm, gemini monsters, interesting o.o gives me an idea for a deck that requires a gemini monster for a synchro summon. But what I don't get is the effects of the gemini monsters. If I summon a gemini monster and it survived for 1 turn, does that mean I can summon it again if its sent to the grave? or what does that effect mean? (Excuse my thick headed-ness Razz)

    Gemini monsters are treated as Normal monsters while in the grave so theres no point trying to summon it with it's own effect now is there :]

    On the same issue, you can only activate the resummon ability if the monster is on the field, thus if special summoned in that turn, you can Normal summon it to be treated as an effect monster, but you cannot normal summon again in the same turn except with a card effect.
