"Batteryman" (メン Denchimen) is an archetype of LIGHT Thunder monsters. In Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's, Dexter's Deck contained at least one member of this archetype, "Batteryman AA".
The number shown on the chests of "Batteryman AA", "Batteryman AAA", "Batteryman C" and "Batteryman D" corresponds their Levels. This also relates to what their respective battery sizes are called in Japan.
"Batterymen" with the recycling symbol on their heads are the ones able to be returned from the graveyard by "Recycling Batteries".
"Batteryman" Decks are generally played as OTK Decks, focusing on breaking the opponent's board and dealing enough damage to win. Other variants, such as Batteryman "Hunder", also exist, though.
| Batteryman | Description |
|---|---|
| 9-Volt | The main searcher; Adds a "Batteryman" card from Deck to hand. |
| Micro-Cell | On flip, Special Summons a Level 4 or lower "Batteryman" from Deck. |
| Charger | A Level 5 monster, which, on Normal Summon, can Special Summon a "Batteryman" from the Deck. |
| Fuel Cell | Can Special Summon itself if you have two or more "Batteryman" monsters, and then bounce cards by Tributing a "Batteryman" monster. |
| Industrial Strength | Can Special Summon itself by banishing two "Batteryman" monsters from the GY, and can banish a Thunder monster to destroy 1 monster and 1 Spell/Trap. |
| AAA | Special Summons another copy of itself from hand or GY. Since it is a Level 4 LIGHT monster, it can be used to access Rank 4s like "Starliege Paladynamo" and "Constellar Omega" |
| Solar | Can send a Thunder monster to the GY, and can Special Summon a "Batteryman Token" when a Thunder monster is Summoned. |
A typical play is to flip "Micro-Cell" to summon "9-Volt", use "9-Volt" to search "Charger" or "Fuel Cell", and use further cards in hand to OTK.
Since "Charger" essentially requires a Tribute Summon to use its Special Summon effect, "The Monarchs Stormforth" is a strong card for the Deck.
