Tamadra (stylized as TAMADRA) are an iconic mascot of the game and exist in many forms. Usually, this refers to a special card that unlocks one awoken skill/awakening of a base card when fused.

In Japanese, Tama (たま) = Egg and Dra/Dora (ドラ) = short form for Dragon.

Regular Tamadra

These are cards that unlock awakenings when used as fusion material.

Latent Tamadra

These Tamadra grant various Latent Awakenings when used as fusion material.

Cosplay Tamadra

These Tamadra do not unlock any type of awakening. They are commonly met as standard dungeon enemies and used as Skill Up materials for the card they are dressed up as.

Reward Tamadra

A set of Tamadra which sell for a high amount of Coins and Monster Points. They are typically given out as quest rewards. While some of these still function as regular Tamadra by unlocking awoken skills, it is not recommended to use them this way since regular Tamadra can be acquired very easily, while these Tamadra have higher sale value.

Login Milestone Tamadra

A special set of Tamadra given at a certain number of total login days. They function the same as regular Tamadra but note that you can only ever get one of them, each. Many people keep these as collectibles.

Other Special Tamadra

The Closed Tamadra is a special Tamadra that removes all unlocked awakenings of a card. It is available in the Monster Point Shop and only used in very specific cases.
Coca-Cola Tamadra was available only in Japan, during GungHo Festival 2018.
Happy Tamadra was a free card in Japan, obtainable from Japan-only McDonald’s Collab.
