Rank-Up

Rank-Up (ランクアップ Rankuappu) is a method that uses an Xyz Monster to Summon another Xyz Monster of a higher Rank in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V animes. It was first used by Shun Kurosaki in the Duel against Sora Shiun'in.

Rank-Up Xyz Change
Rank-Up Xyz Change (Japanese: ランクアップ・エクシーズ・チェンジ Rankuappu Ekushīzu Chenji), also known as Rank-Up Xyz Evolution in English, is the evolved form of Rank-Up Xyz Summoning.Through this method of summoning, the original Xyz Monster and its Xyz Materials become the new Xyz Monster's Xyz Material. It is only possible through Rank-Up and cannot be performed simply by using a certain monster as Xyz Material.

This type of Summoning also appears in Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V, with Shun Kurosaki using "Rank-Up-Magic" cards to evolve his "Raid Raptors - Rise Falcon" into "Raid Raptors - Blaze Falcon" then "Raid Raptors - Revolution Falcon" next "Raid Raptors - Satellite Cannon Falcon" and finally "Raid Raptors - Ultimate Falcon", Yūto using "Rank-Up-Magic Phantom Knights Launch" evolve his "Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon" into "Dark Requiem Xyz Dragon" and Kaito Tenjō using "Rank-Up-Magic Cipher Ascension" evolve his "Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon into "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon".
