Evol Seed (エヴォルシード Evoru Shīdo) is a keyword ability that activates when the card with the Evol Seed ability moves from the deck into Trash. The ability will not be activated if the card was moved from deck into Trash through other zones such as Temporary.
All cards with this ability always have the Evol Seed Icon (エヴォルシードアイコン Evoru Shīdo Aikon) on the leftmost side of the card.
The current explanatory text of Evol Seed ability is shown below:
エヴォルシード( トラッシュ このカードがデッキからトラッシュに置かれる。)
[Auto]Evol Seed ( <Valid> Trash <Trigger> This card is put from deck into Trash.)
For the list of all cards with Evol Seed Icon (and by extension, this ability), see Category:Evol Seed Icon.
Z/X Encyclopedia Entry[]
At the same time that unidentified objects resembling Dragons began to appear in many parts of the world, reports spread of a mysterious power called "Evol Seed" appearing on one Card Device after another.
Theories have appeared, that are not impossible, that this could be a hack from the Dragon Miko and various hostile forces.
In any case, studies on the Card Device have not progressed very far, and it is not impossible that there are still functions that people don't know about.
