| − | *** Assuming the two battle under the same circumstances, "Pendulum Dragon's" monster effect can deal more damage than Phantom Dragon when the gap between its ATK and the other monster is extremely large (greater than 2450), also this is a continuous effect that is applied whenever it battles, regardless of what cards (if any) are in your Pendulum Zones. "Phantom Dragon's" monster effect can deal more damage than Pendulum Dragon when the gap between the battling monsters' ATK is small (less than 2450), but this is a trigger effect that requires it to attack, and requires "Odd-Eyes" cards in the Pendulum Zones for maximum effect. |

| − | *** Similarly, when supporting monsters under the same circumstances, "Pendulum Dragon's" Pendulum Effect is more useful when the monster you control is at a large disadvantage, particularly when the difference in ATK power is large, and is defensive in nature (helps protect your Life Points). Furthermore, it can be used no matter what card is in your other Pendulum Zone (if any). "Phantom Dragon's" Pendulum Effect is more useful when the monster you control has almost as much ATK as the opponent's monster, or even has equal or greater ATK than the other monster's battling statistic, and is primarily offensive in nature (helps you defeat the opponent's monster). However, its effect requires another "Odd-Eyes" card in the other Pendulum Zone. |

- This monster is the manga counterpart to "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon".
- Their effects mirror each other as the Pendulum effects activate when a Pendulum monster battles and the regular effect deals additional damage while battling.
- True to its counterpart status, while most of the body of "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" is red, this card has its body mostly blue.
- This card's name is a reference to the Deck archetypes of Yuya Sakaki and Yuto in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V anime. Yuya uses "Odd-Eyes" monsters, while Yuto uses "The Phantom Knights" monsters. This symbolizes that Yuya's and Yuto's manga counterparts share the same body.
- This monster has physical qualities of each of the Four Dimension Dragons.
- Its chest plate, horns, and limbs are similar to those of "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon".
- It has the same chin spike as "Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon".
- The pattern on its lower neck and its fingers and toes are similar to those of "Clear Wing Synchro Dragon".
- Its head and body are similar to those of "Starve Venom Fusion Dragon".
- This card's TCG/OCG effect reflects how its effect in the manga is usually used with "Odd-Eyes Mirage Dragon" and "Odd-Eyes Persona Dragon", both bearing 1200 ATK (in the manga, this card's effect inflicts damage equal to the ATKs of the monsters in the Pendulum Zones).
