Yu-Gi-Oh! Capsule Monster Coliseum

You must surrender 20+ times in Area 3 and 4.

You must have less than 10 wind monsters after Area 1.

The first fight in the game is with Joey. He uses fire-based monsters. Use water-based monsters to battle with. Place your token near the bottom corner where the hills slopes down. Place your monsters surrounding your token to protect it. Make sure you summon all your monsters before you move their positions. Once you and Joey summon all the monsters. The field will flood some of the arena, giving the water-based monster a field power up. Allow Joey's troops to get close to the water so that you can maintain the power bonus. After a few more turns, the field will flood even more. If Joey's monsters were near the water, the location where they were at is probably flooded, causing them to get weaker while you maintain your increased power. Keep hammering away at his monsters for victory.

To defeat Joey get or buy water and other monsters that can go on land, because thewater goes up and down.

To defeat Tristan, get or buy fire , wood , and thunder.

In order to duplicate monsters, you need two unique save files. They either have to be named differently or have different Symbol attributes. Also make sure that the monster you want to duplicate is in your capsule stock.

For example, let's say you have a save file named "Player 1" and you want to duplicate a Blue-Eyes White Dragon. Put the Blue-Eyes White Dragon in your capsule stock. Then start a brand new campaign game and name it something different like "Player 2."

Now go into Versus mode and pit Player 1 against Player 2, each using their own respective save file. In the duel options under "Ante Monster" have Player 1 bet the Blue-Eyes White Dragon that was in its capsule stock. Proceed with the duel and have Player 2 beat Player 1 either the old-fashioned way, or have Player 1 surrender.

After the duel is over, have Player 2 save its game file, in order to register the newly acquired Blue-Eyes White Dragon, but do not save Player 1's save game file. Now exit to the Title Screen. Player 2 will now have a duplicate of Player 1's Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

If you want to transfer the Blue-Eyes White Dragon from Player 2 to Player 1, just repeat the steps and reverse the procedure from Player 1 to Player 2. You can duplicate as many monsters as you want this way, and it makes it easy to obtain fusions that require 3 monsters, such as Harpie Lady Sisters or the Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon.

This trick requires two controllers. First, create a new profile (P2) in campaign mode. Save P2 before you do any battles. Then, exit to the main screen. Select versus mode. Load your main profile (P1) and P2. Go to the Entrance Hall and go to P1's Manage Monster. Go to "Build Unit". Put the monster you want to duplicate or level up into your Capsule Stock. Press Circle(3) and select your battlefield. Before you start the battle, have P1 ante the monster you just put in your Capsule Stock. Start the battle and on P1's first turn, surrender. Then, go back to the Entrance Hall and save P2, but do not save P1. Then, return to title screen. As long as you do not save P1, both profiles will now have the monster. You can repeat this process until one of your profiles has as many of the monster as desired. In about ten minutes, you will get three of the same monsters into one profile, which is useful if you want to get three Harpies or three Blue Eyes White Dragons to fuse together. Also, versus mode is great place to do the fusions, because there is no threat of an enemy attack. Use the next tip to level up your monsters for fusions.

Get the monster you want to level up into P2, as described above. Then, start the campaign. Use the desired monster to take out all but one of your opponent's monsters. Then, use the desired monster to take out your opponent's symbol. By doing this, you can take a level 1 monster to level 4 to 5 by the end of the first area. Against Joey alone, by taking out three of his monsters and his symbol you can get 160 experience points and what is given for the battle experience.

This trick requires two memory cards and controllers. Get some monsters up a few levels and multiple monsters. Remember to save the game. Then, start a new game with a different name and save it on memory card two. Next, go to versus mode and play against memory card two. Choose to ante monster cards and only let one player win. This is a very quick way to receive three Harpie Ladies or Blue Eyes Whide Dragons.

You can press surrender and try again when you lose most of your good monsters but sometimes this can prevent you from getting some really cool monsters in the shop. Certain monsters are unlocked by not surrendering or losing in a specific area. Below is a complete evolution list.
