-----

''A Game Comes to Equestria'' (or A.G.C.T.E for short), is a crossover FanFic of ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' and [[Anime/YuGiOh the first]] ''[[Anime/YuGiOh Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' [[Anime/YuGiOh series]] written by Rainstone56 on Fanfiction.net.

!!Tropes:

* AdultFear: The Children (and Luna) on Nightmare Night being surrounded [[spoiler:by BrainwashedAndCrazy Griffins that want to ''eat them''.]] Luna could handle them, but considering how [[spoiler:they possess a Power that could potentially harm her...]]

* AllThereInTheManual: Yugi has the nickname of [[spoiler:Firecracker]], but it's only brought up in his AGCTE Bio on the author's Website/DeviantART [[http://webghost.deviantart.com page.]]
** ''[[spoiler:Also, it goes the same that, like Pinkie, I'm actually [[FourthWallObserver very aware of]] [[BreakingTheFourthWall the fourth wall to an extent.]]]]''

* AmplifierArtifact: The Elements of Harmony [[spoiler:and their higher counterparts]] naturally fall here.

** WistfulAmnesia: He's very much aware that something feels missing when it comes to his friendships, if only as a passing feeling.

* ArcSymbol: Stars/"sparks" seem to be a re-occuring symbol as of current, whether they be stars within the night sky, or stars as apart of or the main focus of a Cutie Mark.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor[=/=]MakeAWish: What kicks off the plot is Pinkie's wish: To make friends with someone she's never met before.
* BeenThereShapedHistory: In-Universe example: Yugi is there for certain key events that happen in Seasons 2 and 3, and [[spoiler:and is also the cause of certain events, whether he directly causes it or he indirectly helps.]]
* BerserkButton: Yugi does not like it when his friends are threatened, and ''definitely'' does not appreciate antics and pranks that hurt other ponies, be it physically or emotionally. [[CallBack And don't get him started]] [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking on cheating in a game or going back on your word...]]

* BewareTheNiceOnes: The Mane Six and Yugi. [[BurningWithAnger Yugi]] [[GuileHero most]] [[MagicEnhancement definitely]].
** [[BigGood Princess Celestia]], definitely [[spoiler: considering what she does to Serpent Night Dragon.]]

* BringMyBrownPants: Implied in Chapter 18 with [[spoiler: Angel Bunny]].
* CallBack: There are some call backs to the [[Anime/YuGiOh anime]] and the manga for ''Manga/YuGiOh'', the main one is a mechanic from the Manga where Yugi plays various games with opponents. Justified that the game of Duel Monsters does not exist in Equestria. [[spoiler:Not yet, anyways.]]

* CatapultNightmare: Most of Yugi's [[BadDreams nightmares]] tend to have this happen to him.

-->'''Yugi:''' ...Remember that one Tuesday, when I was trying to build my house?\\

* DeadToBeginWith: This ''might'' be the case with Yugi.

* [[DontCallMeSir Don't Call Me Miss]]:

* {{Doorstopper}}: confirmed by [[WordOfGod by the Author herself]] that the story will be this. For an example? The story is to be expected to have ''95 to 110'' chapters by the time it reaches its end--and that's counting the ''extended'' parts to a chapter. It's because of this estimated length that the author takes their time updating the story (and revising any early chapters) and often has to take a hiatus in order to regain motivation.
* DreamingOfTimesGoneBy: [[spoiler:Celestia]] begins having these dreams.
** Yugi assumes he has these sort of dreams concerning [[spoiler:[[DreamPeople Ancient Dunes]]]] and how he got separated from [[spoiler:them.]] However, they're usually BadDreams in nature.

* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Yugi's mane is much different from his usual Hairstyle, becoming shorter, fluffier and out of its usual shape when [[AmnesiacHero he]] arrives in [[TrappedInAnotherWorld Equestria.]]

* FlamingHair[=/=]BurningWithAnger: [[BewareTheNiceOnes Yugi]], if he's pissed off enough.
** [[spoiler: Celestia as well, whenever a BerserkButton of hers is pressed.]]

* MundaneUtility [=/=] UtilityMagic: [[spoiler: Once Yugi gains the possession of the Element of Hope]], his main use of it (aside from crisis situations) is to take advantage of its ability [[spoiler: that allows him to preform Basic Unicorn Magic, Such as making things levitate and teleportation spells]]. So far, he uses [[spoiler: that magic]] to write letters, send them, and carry things more easily when he can use it.
* [[MulticoloredHair Multicolored Mane]]: par for the course for Yugi, albeit it's more fluffed and out of shape. as this trope is also common in Equestria, it isn't seen completely out of the ordinary.
* [[HumanCannonball Pony Cannonball]]: Yugi, unfortunately, becomes the [[ButtMonkey test dummy]] to the latest venture in Cutie Mark Crusading, resulting in him being ''shot out of a cannon'' and into the Canterlot Castle.

** titles In the Index chapter:

*** There's even, [[JustForPun as the Author could not resist]], ''[[CatchPhrase It's Time To]] [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E5MagicDuel (Magic) Duel!]]''
*** There's also ''[[spoiler: Hey Yug'!]]'', which at first might seem to be a shout out to the title ''[[spoiler: WesternAnimation/HeyArnold]]'', but by the looks of the title below it, it's most likely a shout out to ''[[spoiler: [[Music/TheBeatles Hey]] [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E13MagicalMysteryCure Jude]]]].''
*** There's even two shout outs to Wiki/ThisVeryWiki: ''[[spoiler: [[BigDamnHeroes Big Damn Dragons]]]]'' and ''[[spoiler: [[HumanityEnsues Humanity has ensued]]]]''.

-->'''Princess Luna''': ...And here, we have what we call the "timepieces" of our Equestrian Armory. Our sister tells us that these Bronze-made suits are from our "Baroque" periods in Canterlot History. That, of course, prompts the saying, [[IncrediblyLamePun "If it isn't 'Baroque',]] [[Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast Do not fix it!"]]

* SpiritAdvisor[=/=][[DreamPeople Dream Pony]]: [[spoiler: Ancient Dunes]], who can only been seen by Yugi [[spoiler: in his dreams.]]
* SnowedIn: Most of the "Lost Element" chapters have this in for Canterlot.
* AStormIsComing[=/=]HostileWeather: Twice, as of currently: one being a snowstorm over Canterlot [[spoiler:That lead to the appearance of Red Eyes Black Dragon in Canterlot and Yugi getting the Element Of Hope]], and the other being a huge thunderstorm ''spreading all over Equestria'', [[spoiler:with Guiding Wings showing up in Cloudsdale.]]

* TemptingFate: "He was having a very bad day, but he looked on the bright side. It wasn't like it was to get worse." [[spoiler:Cue [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E1TheCrystalEmpirePart1 Sombra.]]]] This was inwardly [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by [[spoiler: Timaeus]] when he appears.

* TrappedInTVLand[=/=]TrappedInAnotherWorld: Yugi's HeroicSacrifice in Season Four of [[Anime/YuGiOh his canon source]] ends up leading into the latter trope [[SpannerInTheWorks when Pinkie Pie's Wish effects the Orichalcos in the middle of the transfer.]] However, people who [[spoiler: end up seeing Yugi on an strange edition of [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E4LunaEclipsed "Luna Eclipsed"]] (see [[spoiler: ComicBooksAreReal]] above), especially any of Yugi's friends, might assume the former Trope.

* YearInsideHourOutside [=/=] NarniaTime: The flow of time between Yugi's world[[spoiler:, The Beasts' Domain,]] and the Mane Six's world is this. [[spoiler: While years pass by in Equestria, months pass by in the human world, with half of an Equestrian year being half of a month for Yugi's universe.]]

* PurpleIsPowerful: Aside from [[PurpleEyes Yugi's eye color]] and [[Characters/FriendshipIsMagicTwilightSparkle Twilight Sparkle herself]], [[spoiler: The Element Of Hope's crystal, when re-activated by Yugi, is a deep dark purple]].

** Rainbow Dash begins telling a scary story [[JimmyNeutron that's pretty familiar]] to some readers in Chapter 15.

Meanwhile in a world different and separate from Equestria, [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Yu-Gi-Oh!_-_Episode_158 Yami's duel with Raphael]] has reached it's end, with [[YourSoulIsMine The Seal Of Orichalcos]] preparing to take his soul. However, at the last minute, [[HeroicSacrifice Yugi swaps places and is taken in Yami's place instead,]] ending up as (soul) food for the Great Leviathan...

*** There's even two shout outs to ThisVeryWiki: ''[[spoiler: [[BigDamnHeroes Big Damn Dragons]]]]'' and ''[[spoiler: [[HumanityEnsues Humanity has ensued]]]]''.

* [[spoiler:ComicBooksAreReal]]: In Domino City, and basically in all of Yugi's world, ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' can be seen on television and is as pretty popular as it is in RealLife. [[spoiler:Then Yugi appears on [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E4LunaEclipsed "Luna Eclipsed"]] on a strange re-airing of the episode...]]

* [[spoiler:DeadToBeginWith]]: This ''might'' be the case with Yugi.

* [[spoiler: HopeSpringsEternal]]: The Lost Element [[spoiler: (AKA: the Element Of Hope)]] is a Physical representation of this: It was made by its first wielder during a time in Equestria when things were at its bleakest--[[spoiler: because he refused to give up in the face of what seemed to be an endless despair, [[ThePowerOfFriendship his faith in his friends, and in turn, the faith his friends had in him]] solidified into the Element Of Hope.]] As long as there's [[spoiler: Hope]] within its spirit, its magic never falters.

*** There's also ''[[spoiler: Hey Yug'!]]'', which at first might seem to be a shout out to the title ''[[spoiler: WesternAnimation/HeyArnold]]'', but by the looks of the title below it, it's most likely a shout out to ''[[spoiler: [[TheBeatles Hey]] [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E13MagicalMysteryCure Jude]]]].''
