Dark version, born on 9 November 2006 in Japan in the Academy Duel Disk Special Set, as an Ultra Rare, together with Cyber End Dragon's. Yugipedia describes it as redrawn with a different pose, darker colours and a violet aura, to give it "the appearance of Cyber Shadow Gardna copying this monster", a nod to Zane's transformation into Hell Kaiser: Cyberdark Impact!, Shadow Gardna's set, had come out three months earlier. It reaches Italy on 7 March 2007 in the Duelist Pack dedicated to Zane, while the Japanese version of the same pack still used the original artwork.
