Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Sharakusai is the bridge of the archetype. Its effect lets you Fusion Summon by paying LP. It also has a Quick-Effect that lets you Synchro Summon during your opponent's turn.

Noh-P.U.N.K. Foxy Tune is a pseudo-copy of every Punk in the deck. it acts as the 4th copy of certain combo starter like Ze amin.

Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Rising Carp lets you Special Summon 2 PUNKs with different names with each other from the Deck or hand. Rising Carp also gives your Synchro Monster the ability to attack twice if it was used as a Material.

Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Amazing Dragon lets you bounce cards your opponent controls for every differently named Level 3 Psychic type Monsters in your Field and Graveyard when it is Synchro Summoned. Using Sharakusai's effect let you Summon Amazing Dragon during your opponent's turn.

P.U.N.K Counters: How to Beat

Best Decks to Use Against P.U.N.K

Phantom Knights

Phantom Knights is a great counter to P.U.N.K decks as it has counters to most of its plays and monsters. PK is a tricky matchup to navigate due to the sheer amount of removal the deck has to offer.

Sky Strikers

Sky Strikers is similar to Phantom Knights as it also has a lot of ways to destroy your board and negate your plays. Furthermore, Sky Strikers has a way to OTK you, unlike Phantom Knights, which makes it a deadlier matchup.

Trickstar Windwitch

P.U.N.K is playing with fire when faced with a burn deck like Trickstar Windwitch. Punk will find it hard to manage their LP when Trickstars are slowly chipping away their life.

Best Cards to Tech Against P.U.N.K

	Maxx "C"
	Maxx "C" is one of the strongest counters to P.U.N.K as the deck relies on chaining special summons to get its Boss Monsters out. Chances are, a perfectly timed Maxx "C" will give your opponents the answer to your board.
	Nibiru, the Primal Being
	Nibiru, the Primal Being works similar to Maxx "C" as it punishes decks that Special Summon a handful of Monsters in one turn. Unlike Maxx "C", however, Nibiru outright destroys the cards on the field.
	Dark Ruler No More
	Dark Ruler No More shuts down all of your Quick-Effects, making your field easier to break.
