Q2 Q3387
2 of my opponent's Digimon with no digivolution cards DNA digivolves when my Digimon has this card in its digivolution cards. Does the digivolution cost increase by 2?
Show ruling
Official Ruling
No, the digivolution cost only increases by 1. This card's inherited effect reads "When an opponent's Digimon with no digivolution cards would digivolve," so even in the case of a DNA digivolution where there are 2 of the target opponent's Digimon, the digivolution cost only increases by 1 with this effect because the digivolution only occurs once.

Q4 Q3389
My opponent's red Tamer digivolves into a [BT4-011 Agunimon] when my Digimon has this card in its digivolution cards. Does the digivolution cost increase by 1?
Show ruling
Official Ruling
Yes, the digivolution cost increases by 1. [BT4-011 Agunimon]'s effect reads "You may Digivolve this card from your hand onto one of your red Tamers as if the Tamer is a level 3 Digimon," so the Tamer is considered to be a Digimon without digivolution cards, and the digivolution cost increases by 1 due to this card's inherited effect.

No, it doesn't. [BT4-011 Agunimon]'s effect reads "You may Digivolve this card from your hand onto one of your red Tamers as if the Tamer is a level 3 Digimon," so a Tamer with cards under it is considered to be a Digimon with digivolution cards.
