Meter

Meter (Japanese: メートル Mētoru) are a property exclusive to Excharge Monsters, in place of a Level/Rank.

A monster's Meter is represented by a line of purple stars on the top-right. Printed Meter ranges from 0-12 (all monsters with a printed Meter of 0 have a Meter Condition stating that their original Meter is to be treated as a different value). Monsters can only have 1 Meter at a time.

An Excharge Monster's Meter is not a Level, and furthermore, Excharge Monsters do not naturally have a Level. Because of this, Excharge Monsters cannot be used as material for Ritual, Synchro, Xyz, or other Excharge Monsters. Additionally, any effect that concerns Levels/Ranks, or refers to them, cannot be used on Excharge Monsters and they do not affect them.
