Official Ruling
“If you don't” refers to a state such as in which, when resolving this Digimon’s [When Attacking] effect, your opponent doesn't have a Digimon with 4000 DP or less in play, or your opponent has a Digimon that can't be deleted with the effect. Essentially, if your opponent doesn't have a Digimon that can be deleted by “Delete 1 of your opponent’s Digimon with 4000 DP or less,” follow the instructions listed after “If you don't”.

Q3 Q691
My opponent has a Digimon with 4000 DP or less and an effect that reads, “This Digimon can't be deleted by your opponent’s effects,” and another Digimon with 4000 DP or less but no effect. Can I intentionally choose the Digimon with the effect preventing deletion to have this Digimon gain +3000 DP?
Show ruling
Official Ruling
Yes. If you chose your opponent’s Digimon with 4000 DP or less as a target, it counts for this card’s effect, even if the chosen Digimon has an effect that prevents it from being deleted.
