I dunno if I should post it here..so please dun be mad. x.x
As the title says: There's a new Yu-Gi-Oh series, but..all our beloved characters are still there. With a new attire might I add.
More info(Janime Forum):
In January (or February) 2006, without any promotion or fanfare, the Irish television station RTE 2 began airing a new series of Yu-Gi-Oh!, entitled Yu-Gi-Oh!: Capsule Monsters. Historically, it has not been unusual for RTE to premiere episodes of the Yu-Gi-Oh! dub before other markets, but this one has proven to be quite a shock . The existence of Capsule Monsters was quietly hinted towards in December 2005 on the retailer website, [Talkin' Sports], but this was not widely known, and the sudden appearance of the series, particularly in such an unlikely place, has proven especially shocking to fans. It is clearly not a dub of an existing Japanese production, otherwise there would have already been knowledge of its existence; it is a 4Kids production, and features the same dub cast as previous seasions, and as such, it is assumed to have been commissioned and producted by 4Kids directly, much like Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie - Pyramid of Light. Apparently, it is a 15-episode mini-series.
Little is known about Capsule Monsters so far, but it seems to be set before the end of the second Yu-Gi-Oh! anime series (Yu-Gi-Oh: Duel Monsters), due to the presence of the Pharoah Atem. It involves Yugi, Joey (Jonouchi), Téa (Anzu), Tristan (Honda), and Yugi's grandfather (Sugoroku) being pulled into a world where Duel Monsters are real. They find monster capsules that they can use to summon monsters. It's similar to the Virtual RPG arc in many respects, and a few have compared it to Pokemon. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the early manga's Capsule Monster game.
There is no information on Capsule Monsters on the 4Kids website as of February 2nd, 2006. The first place information on Capsule Monsters was found was the Livejournal community Play the d a m n(without spaces) Card by the user "Angryhamster," who caught the new series by accident and managed to tape an early (but numerically unidentified) episode.

Yugi/Yami, Grandpa, Joey, Tristan and Tea are trapped in some place they accessed via a pyramid where capsule monsters is real. You find capsules, load them into a capsule monster launcher on your arm, and fight opponents with them. Yami and Yugi are still "one person", and Yami still has the puzzle.
Yu-Gi-Oh!: Capsule Monsters has not yet premiered in the United States or Japan.

It's hard to believe isn't it, but it's true, I've got ep. 2, 3, and 4 and they're the real deal..except:
It's a 4kids Production!
