Tokens are sent to the graveyard. But they don't stay, they disappear. Not exile but kinda like evaporate would be a better word.

Yes you can regenerate a token. It doesn't leave play when regenerated. it just removes all damage & taps your creature. Oh if it dies from neg effects like wither, infect, or dismember style cards you can't regenerate.

So they don't count towards cards that involve creatures in your graveyard? Such as "Target creature its x/x where x is the number of creatures in your graveyard."

No they don't because they cease to exist after an infinitely short amount of time.

Furthermore, the effects you are referring to (cards like Kessig Cagebreakers) use this text:
[QUOTE]...for each creature card in your graveyard.[/QUOTE]
A token is not a card, so even if it could stay in the graveyard, it wouldn't work with the ability.

Tokens do hit the graveyard (setting off all "dies" or "graveyard" triggers), but they don't stay in the graveyard for very long.


Edit: You can regenerate a zombie creature token as long as it is still on the battlefield. Regenerating a creature creates a "shield" around it preventing it's next damage/destroy based death.

thanks for the quick reply
