Lists

Heroes are a three-prong series of Archetypes introduced in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX. Hero cards are noted by 「HERO(ヒーロー)」 in the card's Japanese name.

Initially divided into Elemental Heroes, Evil Heroes and Destiny Heroes, they are starting to shift towards eventual unification of the three Archetypes.

Cards whose text specifically reference this unification are "Elemental Hero Stratos" and "Elemental Hero Ocean", "Elemental Hero Divine Neos", "Hero's Bond", and "Evil Hero Infernal Prodigy", where the effects are based on cards present on the field whose names contain "Hero", allowing them to be used with either the "Elemental Heroes", "Evil Heroes" or "Destiny Heroes".

The Japanese cards use 「E・HERO(エレメンタルヒーロー)」, 「E-HERO(イービルヒーロー)」 and 「D-HERO(デステニーヒーロー)」 at the start of their applicable cards, so 「HERO(ヒーロー)」 would only work for those three. Note that Elemental Hero and Evil Hero use 「E・HERO」 and 「E-HERO」, and their furigana is different: Elemental Heroes have 「エレメンタルヒーロー」 and Evil Heroes have 「イービルヒーロー」.

The Korean cards use "히어로" to indicate Heroes. Elemental Heroes and Evil Heroes are denoted by "엘리멘틀 히어로" and Destiny Heroes are denoted by "데스티니 히어로".

In English and other languages, they have since changed the text to allow only Destiny Heroes and Elemental Heroes to work with these related card effects. Most cards still need to be updated with the release of the "Evil Heroes" to include them. "Elemental Hero Stratos" and "Elemental Hero Ocean" have been erratered to support each type of Hero.
