If I've digivolved in the breeding area during the current turn, does that meet the requirements of "If you've digivolved this turn"?

I have 3 memory, and use this card's effect to gain <Security Attack +1> and attack my opponent. During the check, [ST2-13 Hammer Spark] is flipped over, and its -2 memory security effect reduces my memory to 1. Can I perform a second check?
Show ruling
No. When your memory drops to 2 or less, it loses the <Security Attack +1> from this card's effect, preventing you from performing the second check.

Show ruling
Yes, after all effects and attacks resolve, it becomes your turn.
One of my Digimon with this digivolution card is deleted after blocking an opponent's Digimon with <Piercing>. As a result, I gain 1 memory, moving the memory gauge to 1 on my side. Does my opponent's <Piercing> effect activate?

Show ruling
It activates immediately after the card enters play. Even if there are other [When Attacking] and "when one of your Digimon attacks" effects waiting to be activated, the [On Play] effect was just triggered, so it activates first.
I use this card's effect to play a Digimon card. Can it attack this turn?
Show ruling

If this Digimon has a level 4 or lower Digimon card in its digivolution cards, do I have to activate this card's effect?

Show ruling

During my breeding phase, I move a level 3 Digimon from my breeding area to my battle area. Can I draw a card off this card's effect?

Show ruling
No battle occurs, and the attack ends. If there are other When Attacking effects, "when one of your Digimon attacks" effects, and/or effects activated at blocker timing, they activate, and then the attack ends.
After I use this Digimon's effect to give an opponent's Digimon -2000 DP, my memory drops to 2 or less. Does my opponent's Digimon revert to its original DP?

Can I use this card's effect to add a level 4 Digimon card that isn't green to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can this Digimon attack if I have less than 2 memory?

If I have two copies of this card in my battle area, does my Digimon with 4 or more digivolution cards gain <Security Attack +1> twice?
Show ruling
Yes. Each card's effect activates individually: <Security Attack +1> gets applied twice, allowing you to check two extra cards.
I use this card's effect to give one of my Digimon <Security Attack +1>, which I use to attack my opponent. The card revealed from the first check has a security effect that reduces my Digimon's digivolution cards to 3 or fewer. Does it still have <Security Attack +1>?

Show ruling
Yes, you can. Hatching Digimon and moving them to the battle area doesn't count as playing them, so you can attack with them immediately.

Show ruling
You have to both draw 2 cards and give a Digimon +2000 DP if possible.

Show ruling
Yes, you can.
What does "original DP" refer to?
Show ruling
The DP value printed on a card is its original DP. This card's effect temporarily allows you to treat the DP value printed on an opponent's Digimon as if it were 3000.
I use this card's effect to change the original DP of an opponent's Digimon to 3000. I then use [ST3-11 Seraphimon]'s effect to give an opponent's Digimon -4000 DP. If the opponent's Digimon drops to 0 DP, is it deleted?
Show ruling
Yes, when a Digimon's DP becomes 0, it's deleted.

I have 1 card in my security stack. My opponent attacks me with a Digimon with <Security Attack +1>, and flips over this card during the security check. Its <Recovery +1 (Deck)> activates, adding a card to my empty security stack. Does my opponent continue the security check?
Show ruling
Yes, they continue by checking the card that was added to your security stack.
I have a level 6 Digimon with a digivolution cost of 3, and use this card's effect to reduce that cost by 4, to -1. Can I digivolve into that Digimon by gaining a memory?
Show ruling
No, digivolution costs can't be reduced to less than zero. You can digivolve the card for free, but you can't gain memory with effects that reduce digivolution costs.
Does activating this card's effect also reduce the digivolution cost of cards in my breeding area?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't. Since the card doesn't specify breeding areas, the effect doesn't apply to Digimon there.
After using this card, can I reduce the digivolution cost of my level 5 green Digimon digivolving to level 6 when an effect to digivolve one of my Digimon is activated?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.

Can I use this card's effect to suspend 1 of my opponent's Digimon with 5000 DP or less, and no other Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, this card's effect allows you to pick 1 Digimon and suspend it, regardless of DP.
I've given one of my Digimon this card's effect. Can I unsuspend it over and over again every time I use it to delete an opponent's Digimon in battle?
Show ruling
Yes. The effect has no limit to the number of times it can be used. As long as you keep deleting your opponent's Digimon, you can keep using the effect to unsuspend this card.
I've given one of my Digimon this card's effect. If it deletes an opponent's Security Digimon in battle, can I unsuspend it?
Show ruling

I've given one of my Digimon this card's effect. I attack with it, and my opponent blocks it. If my Digimon deletes the opponent's blocking Digimon and survives, can I unsuspend it?
Show ruling
Yes, if your Digimon deletes an opponent's Digimon and survives, you can unsuspend it, even if the opposing Digimon had <Blocker>.
I've given one of my Digimon this card's effect. I attack an opponent's Digimon with it, and an effect causes one of my opponent's other Digimon to be deleted during the battle. Do I still get to unsuspend my attacking Digimon?
Show ruling
No. You can only unsuspend the Digimon with this effect if it deletes the Digimon it's currently attacking. Other Digimon don't count.
I use this card's effect on one of my opponent's Digimon, which they then digivolve. Can it now attack and block?
Show ruling
No, it can't.

Show ruling
No, this card's security effect only affects Digimon. Your opponent's Tamers unsuspend as normal.
Can this Digimon attack when I have less than 5 memory?

Does this card's When Attacking effect activate when I have a Tamer that isn't blue in play?
Show ruling
Yes, it does. This card's When Attacking effect doesn't depend upon the color of your Tamers.
I have 2 blue Tamers in play. During my turn, does this card's inherited effect grant +2000 DP?
Show ruling
No. No matter how many blue Tamers you have in play, the effect only grants +1000 DP.
Does this card's inherited effect give this card +1000 DP when it has a red 2-color card as a digivolution card?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't. A red 2-color card isn't considered a "non-red card."
Does this card's inherited effect activate when an effect suspends one of my Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
Does this card's inherited effect activate even when this card is trashed from digivolution cards by my own effect and not my opponent's?

Yes, it does.
Is it true that both the Digimon card and the Tamer card must have the [Xros Heart] trait in order for this card's effect to be able to add them to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
This card’s effect reveals 3 cards. If the cards revealed only include either a Digimon card or a Tamer card with the [Xros Heart] trait, can I still add a card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, as long as either a Digimon card with the [Xros Heart] trait or a Tamer card with the [Xros Heart] trait is among the cards revealed, you can add it to your hand.
This card's effect reveals 3 cards. If both Digimon and Tamer cards with the [Xros Heart] trait are among the cards revealed, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining cards at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. This card's effect reads “Add 1 Digimon card and 1 Tamer card [...] among them to your hand,” so you must add as many cards to your hand as possible.
Can I choose not to activate this card’s [End of Attack] effect by not performing "placing all digivolution cards from under this Digimon under 1 of your Tamers", thus preventing this Digimon from being deleted?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I activate this card's [End of Attack] effect if this Digimon doesn't have any digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't activate unless you can perform "placing all digivolution cards from under this Digimon under 1 of your Tamers."
If I activate this card's [End of Attack] effect, can I unsuspend a different Tamer than the Tamer under which I placed the digivolution cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If more than 1 of my Tamers suspend at the same time, does this card's "+2000 DP" effect activate multiple times?
Show ruling
No, even if multiple Tamers suspend at the same time, this effect will only give +2000 DP.
I digivolve a Digimon with [Gammamon] in its name and a [When Digivolving] <Blitz> effect into this card. Can I activate the [When Digivolving] <Blitz> effect through this card's [All Turns] effect and attack?
Show ruling
Yes, if the memory gauge is now at 1 or greater on your opponent's side, you can activate <Blitz>.
I digivolve a [BT8-013 BetelGammamon] into a [BT8-084 Kimeramon] and place this card as one of [BT8-084 Kimeramon]'s digivolution cards with its [When Digivolving] effect. Can I now activate [BT8-013 BetelGammamon]'s [When Digivolving] <Blitz> effect through this card's inherited effect and attack?
Show ruling
No, you can't. If this card is added to digivolution cards by [BT8-084 Kimeramon]'s [When Digivolving] effect, you get [BT8-013 BetelGammamon]'s <Blitz> effect through this card, but the time to trigger <Blitz> has already passed, so <Blitz> doesn't activate.
If I have multiple digivolution cards with [Gammamon] in their names, does this card's [All Turns] effect and inherited effect give me all of their effects?
Show ruling
Yes, you gain all the effects from every applicable card, even if there are multiple of them.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect and inherited effect allow me to activate the inherited effect of a digivolution card with [Gammamon] in its name as an effect of this card?
Show ruling
No, this card's [All Turns] effect and inherited effect don't affect the inherited effects of digivolution cards with [Gammamon] in their names.
Due to an effect, this Digimon has another [BT10-011 Canoweissmon] and a [BT8-008 Gammamon] under it as its digivolution cards. If I play a red Tamer, how exactly does [BT8-008 Gammamon]'s "When you play a red Tamer, <Draw 1> (Draw 1 card from your deck)" effect work in this situation?
Show ruling
This card's effect and inherited effect mean that this Digimon gains [BT8-008 Gammamon]'s effects twice, so <Draw 1> is activated twice and you draw a total of 2 cards.
I have a [Jesmon] in this Digimon's digivolution cards, and one of my Digimon has [Sistermon] in its name. Do my Digimon get +4000 DP from this card's [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
No, they only get +2000 DP from this effect.
This card's [When Digivolving] effect reads "all of your Digimon may also attack unsuspended Digimon and get +2000 DP." Does this also affect my Digimon that enter the battle area in the same turn after I've digivolved into this card?
Show ruling
Yes, it does. However, Digimon affected by this effect still can't ignore the rule "Digimon can't attack on the turn that they were played".
If I have a [Kiriha Aonuma] in play, do I get to choose either "Reveal 4 cards from the top of your deck. Add 2 cards with [Blue Flare] in their traits among them to your hand. Place the rest at the bottom of your deck in any order" or "return 1 [MetalGreymon] from your trash to your hand" for this card's [On Play] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can choose one or the other.
Can I use this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect to add a card to my hand when only 1 card with the [Blue Flare] trait is among the 4 revealed cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. In such cases, you add as many cards to your hand as possible.
In order to <Draw 2> from this card's [When Digivolving] effect, do I need to have 6 or fewer cards in my hand after drawing the digivolution bonus card?
Show ruling
Yes, that's right. <Draw 2> does not activate if you have 7 or more cards in your hand after drawing the digivolution bonus.
Can this card's [On Play] effect target the opponent's Digimon that don't have digivolution cards?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
An opponent's Digimon was targeted by this card's [On Play] effect, and after that it gained more digivolution cards than this Digimon has, can it now attack and block again?
Show ruling
No. As long as the number of digivolution cards that Digimon had was less than or equal to this Digimon's at the time this effect was activated, this effect stays and it can't attack or block?even if it later gains more digivolution cards.
If this Digimon has both level 3 and level 4 Digimon cards in its digivolution cards, can I choose to play just 1 of them with this card's [When Attacking] effect?
Show ruling
No. If you choose to play cards with the [When Attacking] effect, you must play as many cards as possible?so if cards of both levels are in the digivolution cards, you can't play just 1 of them.
An opponent's Digimon is targeted by this card's [On Play] effect. If it later becomes level 6 or above, does it lose the <Security Attack -1> gained from this effect?
Show ruling
No. As long as it was level 5 or lower when this effect was activated, the effect remains and it still has <Security Attack -1>?even if it later becomes level 6 or higher.
While this card is in the digivolution cards of a Digimon with [Shoutmon] in its name, do my opponent's Security Digimon get -2000 DP from this card's inherited effect even when they are checked by some other Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, they get -2000 DP even when checked by some other Digimon than the one that has this in its digivolution cards.
If I have exactly 3 cards in my security stack, do I activate both the "1 of your opponent's Digimon gets -5000 DP for the turn" effect and the "gain 2 memory" effect when activating this card's [When Attacking] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you do.
Does "can't attack this Digimon and can't activate [When Attacking] and [When Digivolving] effects" in this card's [Opponent's Turn] effect apply to opponent's Digimon with <Security Attack +X> as well as those with <Security Attack -X>?
Show ruling
Yes, all of your opponent's Digimon with either <Security Attack +X> or <Security Attack -X> are affected by "can't attack this Digimon and can't activate [When Attacking] and [When Digivolving] effects."
My opponent has this Digimon in play, and I digivolve one of my Digimon into a Digimon card that has <Security Attack +1> and a [When Digivolving] effect. Does that Digimon activate its [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
No, it has <Security Attack +1> as soon as the digivolution is complete, so this card's effect prevents the [When Digivolving] effect from activating.
What kind of Digimon does this effect's "Digimon with <Security Attack>" refer to?
Show ruling
It refers to Digimon affected by <Security Attack +> or <Security Attack -> effects.
If an opponent's Digimon has both <Security Attack +1> and <Security Attack -1> so the values cancel each other out, is the Digimon treated as not having <Security Attack>, and is it unaffected by "Digimon with <Security Attack> can't attack this Digimon and can't activate [When Attacking] and [When Digivolving] effects"?
Show ruling
No, <Security Attack> is not canceled even if a Digimon has both <Security Attack +1> and <Security Attack -1>.The Digimon is considered to have <Security Attack>, so the effect applies to this Digimon.
I digivolved one of my [MetalGreymon] into [BT9-015 MetalGreymon (X Antibody)]. It gets <Security Attack+1> and +3000 DP with its [When Digivolving] effect, but does that effect activate when my opponent has this Digimon in play?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates. [BT9-015 MetalGreymon (X Antibody)] gains <Security Attack +1> from the [When Digivolving] effect, so after that effect has activated, this card then prevents further [When Attacking] and [When Digivolving] effects from activating.
If a Digimon has a <Security Attack> effect that is only active when certain conditions are met, such as "While this Digimon has X or more digivolution cards, it gains <Security Attack +1>," does this card's [Opponent's Turn] effect apply when these conditions aren't met?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't.
My opponent has this Digimon in play. One of my Digimon that doesn't have <Security Attack> attacks it, and then the attacking Digimon gains <Security Attack> from a [When Attacking] effect or an effect such as "when one of your Digimon attacks". What happens to the attack?
Show ruling
The attack continues.This effect doesn't end or cancel an attack if the attacking Digimon gains <Security Attack> after the attack has been declared. It prevents Digimon with <Security Attack> from declaring the attack.
When a Digimon with <Security Attack> attacks, does this card's effect stop "when this Digimon attacks" effects of those Digimon, such as <Raid>?
Show ruling
No, "When... attacks" effects are not [When Attacking] effects, so this card's effect can't stop them from activating.
Can this card's effect add cards that have the trait [Ancient Plant] or [Carnivorous Plant], etc.?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
This card’s effect reveals 4 cards. If the cards revealed only include 1 card with [Vegetation] or [Plant] in one of its traits or with the [Fairy] trait, can I still add a card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, as long as at least 1 card with [Vegetation] or [Plant] in one of its traits or with the [Fairy] trait is among the cards revealed, you can add it to your hand.
This card's effect reveals 4 cards. If both a card with [Vegetation] or [Plant] in one of its traits and a card with [Fairy] in one of its traits are among the cards revealed, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the other at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. This card's effect does not feature language that would make it optional, so you must add as many cards to your hand as possible.
I digivolve this card into a card that has <Digisorption> in my hand, and suspend 1 of my Digimon with the <Digisorption> effect.Can I activate this card's inherited effect and <Draw 1>?
Show ruling
No, you can't. The Digimon is suspended by <Digisorption> before the digivolution is complete, so the inherited effect cannot be triggered yet.
If this Digimon is suspended, can it itself become the target when its [Opponent's Turn] effect switches the target of an opponent's Digimon's attack?
Show ruling
Yes, you can choose to do so.
Can I suspend this card itself to activate this card's [Main] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Does this card's inherited effect activate if 1 of my Digimon attacks with <Blitz> and I suspend it?
Show ruling
No, suspending to declare an attack is not the same as being suspended by an effect even when attacking via <Blitz>, so the inherited effect does not activate.
If this Digimon and one of my other Digimon with [Vegetation], [Plant], or [Fairy] in one of its traits are deleted at the same time during the opponent's turn, does the [On Deletion] effect gained from this card's [Opponent's Turn] effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
If I have a suspended Digimon with [Vegetation], [Plant], or [Fairy] in one of its traits, can I choose to suspend this Digimon itself with this card's [When Digivolving], gain 2 memory, then unsuspend this Digimon and gain <Piercing>?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If I have 4 suspended Digimon, does this Digimon gain +4000 DP and <Security Attack +1> twice?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
Does this card itself count as a suspended Digimon for this card's [Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, this Digimon counts if it's suspended.
What happens to the cards that weren't added to my hand from among the cards revealed by this card’s effects?
Show ruling
You place them at the bottom of your deck in any order. <a herf="https: //digimoncard.com/rule/rule_change/index.php#BT10-058">Please see the notices regarding changes to the rules/rulings on the official website. </a>
This card’s effect reveals 4 cards. If the cards revealed only include 1 card that is either black with [Knightmon] or [DeadlyAxemon] in its name or 1 card with the [Twilight] trait, can I still add a card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. In such cases, you add as many cards to your hand as possible.
This card's effect reveals 4 cards. If 2 cards that are either black with [Knightmon] or [DeadlyAxemon] in their names and/or the [Twilight] trait are among the cards revealed, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining card at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. This card's effect reads “Add 2 cards [...] among them to your hand,” so you must add as many cards to your hand as possible.However, if you have a black card with [Knightmon] or [DeadlyAxemon] in its name and the [Twilight] trait among the revealed cards and there are no other cards with [Knightmon] or [DeadlyAxemon] in their names, you can treat that card as your card with the [Twilight] trait and add it to your hand. Any other cards that have the [Twilight] trait will then be returned to the bottom of your deck. In such a case, it can be possible to add just 1 of the cards.
If my opponent does not have any Digimon in play so there is no target for <De-Digivolve 1>, can I still place this card under 1 of my Digimon that has the [Legend-Arms] or [Xros Heart] trait when activating this card's [On Play] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
I play this card while DigiXrosing with 2 cards, but there are no cards with [Knightmon] in their name, [DeadlyAxemon], or [Nene Amano] among the cards revealed by the [On Play] effect.Does the "delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with a play cost of 4 or less" effect still activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
When this Digimon would be deleted, if neither [SkullKnightmon] or [DeadlyAxemon] is in this Digimon's digivolution cards, can I still return 1 level 4 or lower black Digimon card from this Digimon's digivolution cards to my hand when activating this card's [All Turns]?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
This card's [When Digivolving] effect reads "all of your Digimon get +2000 DP and your opponent's effects can't return them to hands or decks or reduce their DP." If one of my Digimon's DP is reduced before this effect activates, what happens to that Digimon's DP?
Show ruling
Its original DP is restored by "can't [...] reduce their DP," and it additionally gets +2000 DP from this effect.
If [DarkKnightmon] or [X Antibody] is in this Digimon's digivolution cards but I can't delete a Tamer because neither I nor my opponent have any, does this card's [When Digivolving] effect unsuspend this Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it still unsuspends.
If [DarkKnightmon] or [X Antibody] is in this Digimon's digivolution cards but only I have a Tamer, can I choose to not delete my Tamer with this card's [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't.
If this Digimon has 4 or more digivolution cards when I play this card, does <Blitz> activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it can activate. This card's [On Play] effect activates <Blitz> if there are 3 or more digivolution cards.
I have 9 cards in my trash and a Digimon with this card as a digivolution card is deleted in battle. The deleted cards, including this one, are sent to my trash, and now I have over 10 cards in my trash. Does <Retaliation> in this card's inherited effects activate and delete my opponent's Digimon it battled?
Show ruling
No. You didn't have 10 cards in your trash until after the deletion already took place, so this Digimon's inherited effect could not be active at the time of the deletion.
This card’s effect reveals 4 cards. If the cards revealed only include 1 card with the [Bagra Army] trait or a [Yuu Amano], can I still add a card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, as long as either a Digimon card with the [Bagra Army] trait or a [Yuu Amano] is among the cards revealed, you can add it to your hand.
This card's effect reveals 4 cards. If both a card with the [Bagra Army] trait and a [Yuu Amano] are among the cards revealed, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining card at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. This card's effect reads “Add 1 card [...] among them to your hand,” so you must add as many cards to your hand as possible.
One of my opponent's Digimon attacks, <Draw 1> activates twice from both a [When Attacking] effect and an inherited effect, and their hand increases by 2 cards. Will this card's [Opponent's Turn] effect trash 2 of my opponent's cards in their hand?
Show ruling
No, you can only trash cards equal to the number of cards added by one effect.Even if they were triggered at the same time, different effects are still separate from each other, and you can only activate this effect for one of them, so in this case you can count only one of the <Draw 1> and only 1 card in your opponent's hand will be trashed.
Does this card's [Opponent's Turn] effect activate after an effect that adds and trashes cards in your opponent's hand so that the result is net 0 total cards gained, like "<Draw 2>. Then, trash 2 cards in your hand"?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates. This card's effect trashes the number of cards that were drawn.In the example given in the question, after trashing 2 cards from their hand, your opponent would trash an additional 2 cards, for a total of 4 cards trashed.
This card was trashed from my hand by one of my effects during my turn. Can I use this card's effect to digivolve one of my Digimon into this card from my trash?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
I have 9 cards in my trash when this Digimon is deleted.If this results in my having 10 cards in my trash, does this card’s [On Deletion] effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
Which player chooses which of my opponent's security cards is trashed by this card's [When Digivolving][When Attacking] effect?
Show ruling
The player that activated this effect chooses.
My security cards were revealed due to the [When Digivolving] effect of this opponent's card, and 1 of them was trashed.Can I treat this as "when a card is removed from your security stack" and activate [BT4-097 Kari Kamiya]'s effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can activate it.When a revealed card is trashed from the deck or security stack, it is not considered to be trashed from the deck or security stack, but it is considered that a card was removed from the security stack, so [BT4-097 Kari Kamiya]'s effect can be activated.
What does this card's "by suspending this Tamer, you may place cards from under your Tamers as digivolution cards for a DigiXros" effect do, exactly?
Show ruling
When you play a Digimon card with DigiXros requirements, normally you can only DigiXros with Digimon from your hand or battle area. However, this effect also allows you to DigiXros with Digimon cards placed under a Tamer.

If I play 2 or more Digimon cards with DigiXros requirements at the same time, can I activate this card's effect?
Show ruling

If [Taiki Kudo] is among the cards revealed by this card's [Security] effect, can it be played?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
If there is no Digimon card with the [Xros Heart] trait among the three revealed cards, can I still play [Taiki Kudo] from among the revealed cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can play [Taiki Kudo] even if there isn't a Digimon card with the [Xros Heart] trait.
This card's [Security] effect reveals 3 cards. If both a Digimon card with the [Xros Heart] trait and a [Taiki Kudo] are among the cards revealed, can I choose to only activate the effect that adds the Digimon to my hand and not play [Taiki Kudo], or the other way around?
Show ruling
No, if you perform any of this effect you must perform as much of it as possible, so if both a Digimon card with the [Xros Heart] trait and a [Taiki Kudo] are among the 3 cards revealed, you must perform both "add [...] to your hand" and "play 1 [Taiki Kudo]," or you must choose to perform neither.
If [Kiriha Aonuma] is among the cards revealed by this card's effect, can it be played?
Show ruling

Can this card's effect add fewer than 2 cards to my hand if it reveals fewer than 2 cards with the [Blue Flare] trait among the 6 revealed cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can add 1 card if only 1 card is revealed.
If there aren't 2 other Digimon cards with the [Blue Flare] trait among the six revealed cards, can I still play [Kiriha Aonuma] from among the revealed cards?
Show ruling
No. For this card's effect you reveal cards, add 2 cards with the [Blue Flare] trait among them to your hand, then play 1 [Kiriha Aonuma] among them.

This card's effect reveals 6 cards. If both cards with the [Blue Flare] trait and a [Kiriha Aonuma] are among the cards revealed, can I choose to only activate the effect that adds the cards to my hand and not play [Kiriha Aonuma], or the other way around?

What does "When you would DigiXros this turn, this Digimon may replace 1 of the DigiXros requirements" mean?
Show ruling
When you would DigiXros, this effect allows you to replace 1 of the cards in that Digimon's DigiXros requirements.For example, when you would play a card with [Shoutmon X4] × [Beelzemon] in its DigiXros requirements, you may place this Digimon for the DigiXros instead of [Shoutmon X4] or [Beelzemon].
When DigiXrosing, can I place all of the cards listed in the DigiXros requirements in the digivolution cards, then additionally DigiXros this card?

Activate 1 of that card's [When Digivolving] effects as an effect of this Digimon." At what timing does that [When Digivolving] effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
This card's [When Digivolving] effect placed a [BT10-016 Jesmon (X Antibody)] as a digivolution card, then that card's [When Digivolving] effect played a [BT6-082 Sistermon Blanc], then I activated <Blitz> in this card's [When Digivolving] effect to attack.

Show ruling

Show ruling
No. It doesn't activate in such cases because [BT7-112 Susanoomon] is trashed by the rules, not an effect.

Show ruling

Does my opponent have to have a combination of 2 suspended Digimon or a combination of 2 suspended Tamers in order for them to count toward "every 2 of your opponent's suspended Digimon and Tamers" in this card's [When Attacking] effect?
Show ruling
No. A single suspended Digimon or Tamer will count as long as the total suspended cards is 2 or more.
Can I return an opponent's Tamer to its owner's hand for this card's Burst Digivolve?
Show ruling
No, you can't. You can only return your own Tamer to the hand for Burst Digivolve.
Does "Digimon card with [Chessmon] in its name in your trash" in this card's [On Deletion] effect also include this card itself?
Show ruling
Yes, it includes this card itself.
Can this card's inherited effect delete an opponent's [Sukamon] to prevent itself from being deleted?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Can this card's inherited effect delete an opponent's [Sukamon] to prevent itself from being deleted?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
If an effect such as <Decoy> prevents deletion when this suspended Digimon would be deleted, can I use this card's [All Turns] effect to unsuspend this Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This card's [All Turns] effect is triggered when one of your Digimon with [Chessmon] in its name is deleted, therefore it won't trigger if such a Digimon isn't deleted.
When my opponent activated this card's [On Play][When Digivolving] effect, my Digimon with a play cost of 9 or less digivolved in my next turn and became a Digimon with a play cost of 10 or more. Can I attack with this Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't.
A Digimon with a play cost of 9 or less attacked a player, digivolved using a [When Attacking] effect, and became a Digimon with a play cost of 10 or more in a state where this card's [On Play][When Digivolving] effect was activated for my opponent. What happens to the attack in such cases?
Show ruling
The attack has already been declared, so the attack will continue.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect also trigger when one of my opponent's Digimon with [Etemon] or [Sukamon] in its name is deleted?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
If this Digimon attacks when this card's [On Play][When Attacking] effect prevents it from being affected by the effects of my opponent's Digimon, can it be blocked by my opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can be blocked. <Blocker> is an effect that allows for the Digimon to block, so it isn't affected by ""isn't affected by the effects of your opponent's Digimon"" effects.
Do I or my opponent choose the card to be trashed from their hand when I activate this card's inherited effect?
Show ruling
Your opponent chooses.
Does this card’s inherited effect activate when the Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards is deleted by <Retaliation> on a battled opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes. It activates because the Digimon is deleted by the <Retaliation> effect, not by battle.
This Digimon can't Digivolve, but can it be placed in another Digimon's digivolution cards by a card effect?
Show ruling
Yes it can. Placing a card in digivolution cards isn't digivolution.
Can I use this card's [On Deletion] effect to return this card itself from my trash to the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
When I only have 2 cards with [Gizmon] in their names including this card in my trash, can I use this card's [On Deletion] effect to return those 2 cards to the bottom of my deck but not play [Gizmon: AT] from my trash?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Do I or my opponent choose the card to be trashed from their hand when I activate this card's inherited effect?
Show ruling
Your opponent chooses.
Does this card’s inherited effect activate when the Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards is deleted by <Retaliation> on a battled opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes. It activates because the Digimon is deleted by the <Retaliation> effect, not by battle.
This Digimon can't Digivolve, but can it be placed in another Digimon's digivolution cards by a card effect?
Show ruling
Yes it can. Placing a card in digivolution cards isn't digivolution.
Can I use this card's [On Deletion] effect to return this card itself from my trash to the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
When I only have 2 cards with [Gizmon] in their names including this card in my trash, can I use this card's [On Deletion] effect to return those 2 cards to the bottom of my deck but not play [Gizmon: XT] from my trash?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Does this card’s inherited effect activate when the Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards is deleted by <Retaliation> on a battled opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes. It activates because the Digimon is deleted by the <Retaliation> effect, not by battle.
Do I have to choose 2 cards with [Lucemon] in their names or 2 cards with the [Royal Knight] trait among the revealed cards to add to my hand for this card's [On Play][When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
No, the 2 cards you add to your hand are cards that fulfill either of the conditions: a card with [Lucemon] in its name or a card with the [Royal Knight] trait. Therefore, in addition to the combinations from your question, you can also add 1 card with [Lucemon] in its name and 1 card with the [Royal Knight] trait to your hand.
Can I use this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect to add a card to my hand when only 1 card with [Lucemon] in its name or the [Royal Knight] trait is among the 5 revealed cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. In such cases, you add as many cards to your hand as possible.
At what timing do I play [Ravemon] from my trash at the end of my opponent's turn for this card's effect?
Show ruling
The effect triggers simultaneously with your opponent's [End of Your Turn] effects, therefore your opponent's [End of Your Turn] effects and any derived effects will activate first because your opponent is the turn player.
This card Burst Digivolved into [BT13-092 Ravemon: Burst Mode]. At the end of my turn, the [BT13-092 Ravemon: Burst Mode] that was placed for the Burst Digivolve is trashed, but then can I activate this card's [End of Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. At the end of your turn, [BT13-092 Ravemon: Burst Mode] is still placed, so this card's [End of Your Turn] effect isn't triggered.
Can I use this card's [When Digivolving] effect to look at the card that my opponent adds to their hand from their security stack?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This card’s [When Digivolving] effect can only be used to search your opponent's hand for the card you choose to trash from their hand.
If I use this card's [When Attacking] effect to return my opponent's [Greymon] to the bottom of their deck from their trash, can I delete my opponent's cards such as [MetalGreymon] and [WarGreymon]?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This card's [When Attacking] effect reads ""your opponent's Digimon that share a name with the returned card,"" therefore if you return your opponent's [Greymon] to their deck, you can only delete your opponent's Digimon with the [Greymon] name.
If I use this card's [When Attacking] effect to return my opponent's card with "This card/Digimon is also treated as [XX]" to the bottom of their deck from their trash, can I delete both my opponent's Digimon with the same name as that card and my opponent's Digimon with the [XX] name?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If the card that my opponent adds to their hand from their security stack by this card's [When Digivolving] effect has a [Security] effect, does that effect activate?
Show ruling
No, since the card was not revealed by a security check, its [Security] effect can't be activated.
If I have a Digimon card with the [Royal Knight] trait in my hand, do I have to place it under my [Yggdrasill_7D6] in the breeding area as its bottom digivolution card for this card's [On Deletion] effect?
Show ruling
No. The cards in your hand count as private information, so you don't have to place that card.
If I have [Agumon] or [Greymon] but my opponent has no Digimon when this Tamer becomes suspended, can I use this card's [All Turns] effect to gain 1 memory without 1 of my opponent's Digimon getting -3000 DP?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
When I played a blue Digimon, its DP became 0 by an opponent's effect that had already activated, so the Digimon was deleted at the same time it was played. Does this Tamer's [All Turns] effect still trigger in such cases?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
Do I have to draw 1 card from my deck when my opponent activates this Tamer card's [Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you must draw 1 card from your deck if possible.
Can I also activate this card's [All Turns] effect when I play a 2-color yellow and black Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes. The order of the colors doesn't matter, so the effect will activate for either yellow and black or black and yellow.
When I played a 2-color black and yellow Digimon, its DP became 0 by an opponent's effect that had already activated, so the Digimon was deleted at the same time it was played. Does this Tamer's [All Turns] effect still trigger in such cases?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
Which player gains 1 memory and <Draw 1> from this card’s [On Play] effect?
Show ruling
The player that activated this card's effect. This card's effect gives you 1 memory and <Draw 1> if the opponent player doesn't trash 1 Tamer card or Option card from their hand.
Does this card's [Opponent's Turn] effect activate when either my Digimon or my opponent's Digimon is played by an effect?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
Does this card's [Opponent's Turn] effect activate when a Digimon is played by a DigiXros?
Show ruling
No. DigiXros itself is not an effect, so the effect doesn't activate for a card played by a DigiXros as a main phase action. The effect will activate if a DigiXros is performed when a Digimon is played by an effect.
Which player gains memory from this card's effect?
Show ruling
The player that uses this card gains memory.
Can I use this card's effect to return my [Leopardmon: Leopard Mode] without digivolution cards to my hand and unsuspend all of my Digimon?
Show ruling
No. A card doesn't have cards stacked under it if it doesn't have digivolution cards, therefore you can't use this card's effect to return the card to your hand, and the effect that unsuspends all of your Digimon doesn't activate, either.
Can I use this card's effect to return my [Leopardmon: Leopard Mode] with only a level 2 Digi-Egg card in its digivolution cards to my hand and unsuspend all of my Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. However, a level 2 Digimon doesn't have DP, so it will be trashed by the rules after effect activation.
My Digimon is affected by this card's "This Digimon isn't affected by your opponent's Option cards" effect. Is it affected by the [Security] effect of my opponent's Option cards?
Show ruling
No, it isn't affected by [Security] effects, either.
Can "isn't affected by your opponent's Option cards" effects prevent the "When this Digimon is suspended, delete all of your opponent's Digimon with a play cost less than or equal to this Digimon" effect given to an opponent's Digimon by this card?
Show ruling
No, they can't. The "When this Digimon is suspended, delete all of your opponent's Digimon with a play cost less than or equal to this Digimon" effect from this card is a Digimon effect. It isn't considered to be an Option card effect.
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to digivolve any 1 of my Digimon into a [Belphemon: Sleep Mode] from my trash without paying the cost?
Show ruling
No. You can't ignore the digivolution requirements, so you can only digivolve a Digimon that meets the digivolution requirements or special digivolution requirements into [Belphemon: Sleep Mode] from your trash.
Does "for every 5 cards in both players' trash" mean for every 5 cards in either mine or my opponent's trash?
Show ruling
No, it means every 5 cards in yours and your opponent's trashes combined. For example, if you have 12 cards in your trash and your opponent has 8 cards in theirs, that makes a total of 20 cards, so the play cost is reduced by 8.
When an "Add 1000 to the maximum your DP-based deletion effects can delete" effect has activated, does this card's [On Play][When Digivolving][When Attacking] effect become "Delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with 7000 DP or less. If no Digimon was deleted by this effect, delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with 14000 DP or more"?
Show ruling
No. "Delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with 6000 DP or less" becomes "Delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with 7000 DP or less," but 13000 DP isn't the maximum for "delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with 13000 DP or more," therefore it isn't affected and remains as "delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with 13000 DP or more."
Does "you may play 1 of each Digimon with the [Royal Knight] trait and a different name from the digivolution cards of Digimon in the breeding area without paying the costs" in this card's [On Play][When Digivolving] effect mean that I can play a Digimon card with the [Royal Knight] trait without the name [Omnimon]?
Show ruling
No, this effect plays 1 of each Digimon with the [Royal Knight] trait and different names from among the digivolution cards. For example, if the target digivolution cards are [Omnimon], [Alphamon], [Alphamon], [Gallantmon], and [Gallantmon (X Antibody)], you would leave 1 [Alphamon] since it has the same name, then play[Omnimon], [Alphamon], [Gallantmon], and [Gallantmon (X Antibody)]. Note that the [Omnimon] where this effect activated isn't a digivolution card, therefore you can use this effect to play 1 [Omnimon] from among the target cards.
When I use this card's [On Play][When Digivolving] effect to play Digimon, can I choose just the cards I want to play from among the cards I can play?
Show ruling
No, you can't. You must play all of the Digimon that you can play or play no Digimon.
This card's [On Play][When Digivolving] effect reads "trash your Digimon in the breeding area" for when a Digimon is played by this effect, but what happens to the remaining digivolution cards under this Digimon?
Show ruling
The digivolution cards are also trashed.
Can this card's inherited effect digivolve a Digimon in the breeding area into a Digimon with the [Dark Animal] or [SoC] trait that was trashed from my hand?
Show ruling
No, it can’t.Digimon in the breeding area are not included in the target of this effect.
When a Digimon card with the [Dark Animal] or [SoC] trait is trashed from my hand, can I use this card's inherited effect to digivolve into that card regardless of its digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
No, this card's effect does not allow ignoring digivolution requirements, so you can only digivolve into a card that meets the digivolution requirements.
Can I use this card's inherited effect to digivolve without paying the digivolution cost?
Show ruling
No, you must pay the digivolution cost.
When I use this card's effect to digivolve into [Greymon] in my hand, can it digivolve regardless of its digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
No, this card's effect does not allow ignoring digivolution requirements, so you can only digivolve into a card that meets the digivolution requirements.
Does this card's effect allow activation of effects that reduce play costs when Digimon are played other than by an effect?
Show ruling
Yes. Such effects can activate.
When digivolving into a Digimon that meets the requirements and then digivolving into another Digimon that meets the requirements in the same turn, can this card's [Start of Your Main Phase] reduce the digivolution cost by 1 again?
Show ruling
Yes, the digivolution cost is reduced by 1. This effect continues until the end of the turn, therefore the digivolution cost will be reduced by 1 for every digivolution that occurs during that time and meets the requirements.
Can I use this card's inherited effect to attack using a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards even when it's suspended?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This card's inherited effect does not allow you to attack with Digimon that are in a state where they can't attack.
At the end of my turn, I used this inherited effect to attack, then an effect changed my memory to 0 or more and my turn continued. After that, if a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards digivolved and the end of my turn came again while it was unsuspended, can I use this inherited effect to attack again?
Show ruling
No, you can't. Because the turn didn't switch the first time the turn ended, the [Once Per Turn] restriction still applies. In addition, the [Once Per Turn] restriction doesn't reset even for digivolutions. Therefore, you can't use this card's inherited effect to attack twice.
When I have 2 Digimon with this card in their digivolution cards, can I use this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to attack using these 2 Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. At the end of your turn, the inherited effects on these cards activate, the activation order is decided, and then the attack occurs for the 1st Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards. After activation of effects that are triggered upon attack declaration such as [When Attacking] effects and "when one of your Digimon attacks" effects but before the counter timing, the next activation would occur for the other inherited effect that was pending activation, but because the 1st Digimon is still attacking, you can't make a new attack declaration, and the 2nd activation fails.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect prevent me from playing a Digimon card with 6000 DP or less when my opponent has this Digimon while I have 1 or more memory?
Show ruling
Yes, it can't be played. If your opponent has this Digimon, "While your opponent has 1 or more memory" from your opponent's perspective means while you have 1 or more memory.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect prevent playing a Digimon card with 6000 DP or less even from effects that play a card?
Show ruling
Yes, it can't be played.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect also prevent playing a token that is treated as a Digimon card with 6000 DP or less?
Show ruling
Yes, it can't be played.
If I have a Digimon card with an original DP of 6000 or less and its DP would increase to more than 6000 by an effect upon playing it into the battle area, does this card's [All Turns] effect allow that card to be played?
Show ruling
Yes, it can't be played.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect allow me to play a Digimon card with 6000 DP or less if paying the play cost would cause the memory to change to 0 or 1 or more on my opponent's side when my opponent has this Digimon?
Show ruling
No, it can't be played. At the timing of the play declaration, if "While your opponent has 1 or more memory" from your opponent's perspective applies (in other words, if you have 1 or more memory), this card's [All Turns] effect doesn't allow you to play such Digimon.
When my opponent has this Digimon, does this card's [All Turns] effect allow me to just pay the play cost for a Digimon card with 6000 DP or less without playing it while I have 1 memory or more?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't. You aren't allowed to declare playing a 6000 DP or lower Digimon card.
What's a token?
Show ruling
Tokens are special cards that some effects put into play to represent Digimon or Tamers. This card's effect, for example, plays tokens that are treated as Digimon named [Amon of Crimson Flame] and [Umon of Blue Thunder]. For a more detailed explanation of how tokens work, check the official rule manual.
Can [Amon of Crimson Flame] and [Umon of Blue Thunder] tokens played by this card's effect become targets for "Digimon with play costs of X or less" effects or "level X or higher/lower Digimon" effects?
Show ruling
No, they can't. The [Amon of Crimson Flame] and [Umon of Blue Thunder] tokens played by this card's effect can't become targets for effects with requirements related to play cost or level because these tokens don't have a play cost or level.
Can this card's [All Turns] effect activate <Recovery +1 (Deck)> and delete my [Amon of Crimson Flame] or [Umon of Blue Thunder] when I only have one or the other?
Show ruling
Yes, it can. Even if you have only 1 [Amon of Crimson Flame] or [Umon of Blue Thunder] token, it will be deleted and <Recovery +1 (Deck)> will activate.
If this card's [All Turns] effect deletes 2 of my [Amon of Crimson Flame] and/or [Umon of Blue Thunder], does <Recovery +1 (Deck)> activate twice?
Show ruling
No, it only activates once. No matter how many [Amon of Crimson Flame] and/or [Umon of Blue Thunder] you delete at one time with this effect, <Recovery +1 (Deck)> will only activate once.
What does this card's "When [...] would [...] leave the battle area" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
"When [...] would leave the battle area" refers to when this Digimon is placed in the trash, returned to the hand/deck, placed in the security stack, moved to the breeding area, or placed under another card.
Does "This Digimon can't be blocked" in this card's [Start of Your Main Phase] effect activate even when my opponent can't trash a digivolution card?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
I have both this card and another [Gomamon] with an [On Deletion] inherited effect in the digivolution cards of the same one of my Digimon. When that Digimon is deleted, can I activate this card's inherited effect, play the other [Gomamon] from the digivolution cards, and activate that [On Deletion] inherited effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't activate it. This card’s inherited effect reads "When this Digimon would be deleted," so it interrupts the deletion when it activates. Therefore, the [Gomamon] with the [On Deletion] effect is removed from the digivolution cards before the [On Deletion] effect can be triggered.
If the digivolution cards under the target opponent's Digimon increase to become more than those under this Digimon after this card's [When Attacking] effect/inherited effect activate, can my opponent's Digimon now attack?
Show ruling
No, it can't. If the number of digivolution cards under the target opponent's Digimon is less than or equal to those of this Digimon or the Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards at the timing when this effect activates, the target Digimon can't attack until the effect ends at the end of your opponent's turn, even if the number of its digivolution cards later increases.
Can this card's [When Digivolving] effect trash 1 digivolution card each from 2 of my opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Can this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect trash 1 digivolution card each from 2 of my opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Does this card's effect also return my level 3 Digimon to the hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you must return your level 3 Digimon to your hand.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect prevent deletion even when I lose a battle with my opponent's Security Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it prevents that deletion.
Does this card's [All Turns] delete this Digimon when my opponent's Digimon activates <Retaliation> after battling this Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it's deleted. <Retaliation> is deletion by an effect, not by battle.
Can this card's [When Digivolving] effect trash 1 digivolution card each from 3 of my opponent's Digimon or trash 2 digivolution cards from 1 of their Digimon and 1 digivolution card from another?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Can this card's [When Attacking] effect unsuspend this Digimon when my opponent has no Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Can this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect return any level Digimon when it returns my Digimon to the hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can return your Digimon of any level to the hand.
Can this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect return my Digimon to the hand even when my opponent has no Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Can I use this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect to return my [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] from the battle area to the hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If your [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] is chosen as the target to return to the hand for this card's effect, it will ultimately be placed at the bottom of the Digi-Egg deck instead of the hand according to the rules, but it meets this card's "by returning 1 of your Digimon to the hand" condition. A card isn't actually added to the hand, therefore effects such as "when a card is added to the hand" don't trigger.
If I use this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect to return my [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] from the battle area to the hand, what happens for "return 1 of your opponent's Digimon whose level is less than or equal to the returned Digimon's level to the hand"?
Show ruling
[EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] is a Digimon without a level, therefore your opponent can't return a Digimon to the hand.
Can I use this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect to return my token that was played as a Digimon from the battle area to the hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If your token is chosen as the target to return to the hand for this card's effect, it will ultimately be removed from the game instead of being returned to the hand according to the rules, but it meets this card's "by returning 1 of your Digimon to the hand" condition. A card isn't actually added to the hand, therefore effects such as "when a card is added to the hand" don't trigger.
How does this card’s effect work if it activates when I have 0 cards in my security stack?
Show ruling
You can't add a card to the hand because you have 0 cards in your security stack, but you may perform "place 1 card with [Sukamon] in its name from your hand on top of your security stack."
When I use this card's [On Play] effect to add 1 card from my security stack to the hand, do I have to reveal the added card to my opponent?
Show ruling
No, there are no requirements for the card you add to your hand with this effect, so you don't have to reveal it to your opponent.
Does this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] give 1 of my opponent's Digimon -1000 DP for each card in my security stack even if I have 6 or more cards in my security stack?
Show ruling
Yes. Even if you have 6 or more cards, they get -1000 DP for each security card.
Can this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] give 2 of my opponent's Digimon -1000 DP each when I have 2 cards in my security stack?
Show ruling
No, it can't. The effect only targets 1 of your opponent's Digimon.
Does this cards [Security] effect play 1 level 6 Digimon card with [Etemon] in its name from my hand before or after the battle with my Security Digimon?
Show ruling
This is a [Security] effect, so it happens before the battle. The battle with your Security Digimon happens after the activation of [On Play] effects on played Digimon or "When you play a Digimon" effects.
[BT1-087 T.K. Takaishi]’s effect adds a yellow card from my security stack to my hand, and <Recovery +1 (Deck)> adds a card to my security stack. The number of cards in my security stack ultimately remained the same, but does 1 of my opponent's Digimon still get -7000 DP and does this Digimon still gain <Security A. +1> from this card’s effect?
Show ruling
Yes. A card was added to your security stack with <Recovery +1 (Deck)>, therefore 1 of your opponent's Digimon gets -7000 DP and this Digimon gains <Security A. +1>.
Can this card's [On Play] effect suspend my Digimon even when my opponent has no Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
If a Digimon has 6000 DP or more when this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect activates, then its DP is reduced to 5000 or less by an effect, does that Digimon unsuspend during the unsuspend phase?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't unsuspend. This card's effect targets "all of your opponent's Digimon," therefore even your opponent's Digimon that later had their DP reduced to 5000 DP or less don't unsuspend. On the other hand, even if one of your opponent's Digimon has 5000 DP or less upon activation, that Digimon will unsuspend if its DP later increases to 6000 DP or more.
This Digimon attacked the opponent player and was blocked by an opponent's Digimon that has more DP than this Digimon. Can I use this card's effect to digivolve into a level 6 Digimon card with [Leomon] in its name in my hand, ignoring its digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This card's [When Attacking] effect is an effect that activates before your opponent blocks, therefore the activation timing has already passed by the time of the block timing.
This Digimon gained <Rush>, it attacked the opponent player, and I used the <Rush> effect to switch the target of attack to an opponent's Digimon with higher DP than this Digimon. In such cases, can this card's [When Attacking] effect digivolve into a level 6 Digimon card with [Leomon] in its name in my hand?
Show ruling
No, it can't. Only when this Digimon attacked a Digimon with higher DP at the time of the attack declaration can this card's [When Attacking] effect digivolve into a level 6 Digimon card with [Leomon] in its name in your hand, ignoring its digivolution requirements.
Can I still add to the hand with this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect if I only reveal 1 green Digimon card among the top 5 cards of my deck?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. In that case, you add as many as possible to the hand.
What does this card's "(Rule) Name: Treated as having [Leomon]" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
This is a special rule for this card that treats it as a card that has [Leomon] in its name. This is a rule and not an effect, therefore this card is treated as having [Leomon] in its name when the card is in your hand, breeding area, or any other area.
Can this card be selected as the target of an effect that targets exactly [Leomon] due to the text "(Rule) Name: Treated as having [Leomon]"?
Show ruling
No, it can't. This card's name is treated as having [Leomon] in its name, but it is not treated as [Leomon].
Can this card's [When Digivolving] effect unsuspend this Digimon even when my opponent has no Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
When I have 2 copies of this Digimon, can I use this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to attack using these 2 Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. At the end of your turn, these cards' [End of Your Turn] effects trigger at the same time, the activation order is decided, and then the attack occurs for the 1st Digimon. After activation of effects that are triggered upon attack declaration such as [When Attacking] effects and "when one of your Digimon attacks" effects but before the counter timing, the activation would next occur for the other [End of Your Turn] effect that was pending activation, but because the 1st Digimon is still attacking, you can't make a new attack declaration, and the 2nd effect activation fails.
Can I use this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to attack even when this Digimon is suspended?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This effect does not allow you to attack with Digimon that are in a state where they can't attack.
If one of the cards revealed from my deck by this card's [On Play] effect is a Tamer card or Option card with the [D-Brigade] or [DigiPolice] trait, can I add that card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can this card's inherited effect activate when an opponent's effect would place a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards in another of my Digimon's digivolution cards?
Show ruling
Yes, it can. This effect can interrupt the removal of a card from the battle area, therefore by deleting 1 of your other Digimon with the [D-Brigade] trait, this card will be prevented from being placed in your other Digimon's digivolution cards.
What does this card's "When [...] would [...] leave the battle area" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
"When [...] would leave the battle area" refers to when this Digimon is placed in the trash, returned to the hand/deck, placed in the security stack, moved to the breeding area, or placed under another card.
What does this card's "(Rule) Name: Also treated as [Commandramon]" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
This is a special rule for this card that treats it as a card that has the [Commandramon] name. This is a rule and not an effect, therefore this card is treated as having the [Commandramon] name when the card is in your hand, breeding area, or any other area.
Can this card be selected as the target of an effect that targets exactly [Commandramon] due to the text "(Rule) Name: Also treated as [Commandramon]"?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
If one of the cards revealed from my deck by this card's [When Attacking] effect is a Tamer card with the [D-Brigade] or [DigiPolice] trait and a play cost of 3 or less, can I play that card?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
What does this card's "When [...] would [...] leave the battle area" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
"When [...] would leave the battle area" refers to when this Digimon is placed in the trash, returned to the hand/deck, placed in the security stack, moved to the breeding area, or placed under another card.
Which player chooses the card to return from my opponent’s trash to the deck by this card's effect?
Show ruling
The player that activated this effect chooses.
This card’s [All Turns] effect reads "This Digimon can't be deleted by your opponent's effects." How does this effect work, exactly?
Show ruling
This effect prevents deletion when this Digimon is the target of an effect with "delete" in its card text. Deletion will still occur if you lose a battle, both players lose a battle, or if this Digimon's DP is reduced to 0.
If the 3 cards revealed with this card's [On Deletion] effect don't include both a card with [Monzaemon] in its name and a Digimon card with [Numemon] in its name, am I allowed to play one of the cards or add it to my hand, or do both cards have to be present?
Show ruling
Yes, you can add 1 card or play it even if only 1 card is revealed.
When the 3 cards revealed from my deck with this card's [On Deletion] effect include both a card with [Monzaemon] in its name and a Digimon card with [Numemon] in its name, am I allowed to add just one card to my hand or play it?
Show ruling
No, it can't. You must play or add as many cards to your hand as possible.
If one of the cards revealed from my deck by this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect is a Tamer card with the [D-Brigade] or [DigiPolice] trait and a play cost of 4 or less, can I play that card?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If my opponent reveals 3 Digimon cards from their deck by this card's effect, does it <De-Digivolve 3> 1 of my opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
No. <De-Digivolve 1> activates 3 times, not <De-Digivolve 3>. The difference is that <De-Digivolve 3> allows you to trash 1 to 3 cards, but <De-Digivolve 1> trashes 1 card three times, meaning that you always trash 3 cards (or until there are no more digivolution cards or until the Digimon is reduced to level 3).
When this card’s effect returns revealed cards to my opponent's deck, which player decides the order the cards are placed in and whether the cards are placed on the top or bottom of the deck?
Show ruling
The player that activated this effect chooses.
If the card chosen with this card's effect has a play cost of 5, can it delete up to 5 of my opponent's Digimon?

Show ruling
The player that activated this effect chooses.
If one of the cards revealed from my deck by this card's [End of Your Turn] effect is a Tamer card with the [D-Brigade]/[DigiPolice] trait, can I play that card?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
What happens for this effect if I don't have a purple Digimon card with the [Dark Animal] trait in my trash?
Show ruling
You can't return a card from your trash to the hand, but you must perform "trash 1 card in your hand."
Can I use this card’s [Your Turn] effect to gain 1 memory when [EX5-062 Anubismon]'s [When Digivolving] effect trashes this card in my hand and plays it from my trash?
Show ruling
No. This card isn't in the battle area upon the timing when it's trashed, so the [Your Turn] effect doesn't trigger and you don't gain 1 memory.
If I don't trash 1 card in my hand, do I gain 1 memory from this card's [When Attacking] effect when [Eiji Nagasumi] is still in this Digimon's digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No, you don't gain 1 memory. The effect reads "By..." Therefore, the rest of the effect won't activate if you don't trash a card in your hand.
Is the card trashed by this card's [On Deletion] effect also private information?
Show ruling
No, the the trashed card is public information. "Trash [...] without looking" means that you must choose a card to trash from your opponent's hand without looking at the front of the cards in their hand.
Does this card's [When Digivolving] effect delete this Digimon when I only have this Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it deletes this Digimon. However, this effect reads "By trashing 1 card in your hand," therefore you can choose to not activate the effect by not trashing a card in your hand.
Can I use this card's [When Digivolving] effect to trash 1 card in my hand even when my opponent has no Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Do I have to activate this card's [End of Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling

What does this card's [Your Turn] effect mean?
Show ruling
Normally, the turn will end and switch when the memory moves to 1 or more on your opponent's side. But while this effect is activated, the turn won't end unless the memory moves to 3 or more on your opponent's side. Your turn will continue when your opponent's memory is at 1 or 2.
If the memory moves to 2 or less on my opponent's side during my opponent's turn, does the turn switch to my turn with this card's [Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, this effect only applies during your turn. Your opponent's turn continues until the memory moves to 1 or more from your perspective.
The memory moved to 3 or more on my opponent's side and the turn ended while this card's [Your Turn] effect was activated. If the memory moves to 1 or 2 on my opponent's side due to an [End of Your Turn] effect, does my turn continue?
Show ruling
Yes, your turn continues.
When the memory moves to 3 or more on my opponent's side while this card's [Your Turn] effect is activated, does <Blitz> allow for attacking?
Show ruling
No. <Blitz> still requires the memory to be at 1 or more on your opponent's side for attacking.

Show ruling
No, you can't. This effect is a "You may play" effect, but it doesn't include "up to," therefore you must choose to either play no cards or as many as possible.
What happens if I declare a "pass" when I have this Digimon?
Show ruling
The memory will move to 3 on your opponent's side, and the turn will end if there are no other effects pending activation, etc.
When is the activation timing for this card's [Your Turn] effect when a player is attacked and a security check is performed?
Show ruling
After activation of the [Security] effect on the card revealed by the security check. If the card is a Digimon card, then the timing will come before the battle with the Security Digimon.
I used this card's [On Play] effect to return 1 card from my security stack to the hand, then I placed 1 yellow card with the [Vaccine] trait from my hand at the bottom of my security stack. At such times, is a card considered to be added to my security stack, allowing this card's [Your Turn] effect to activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it will activate.
When I use this card's [On Play] effect to return 1 card from my security stack to the hand, do I have to reveal the returned card to my opponent?
Show ruling
No, there are no requirements for the card you return to your hand with this effect, so you don't have to reveal it to your opponent.
Can I activate this card's [Your Turn] effect even when an opponent's effect suspends an opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.

Show ruling
Yes, you can add just 1 card to your hand when only 1 or the other is revealed.
When the cards revealed from my deck with this card's [On Play] effect contain both a level 3 Digimon card and a non-white Tamer card, am I allowed to add just one card to my hand?
Show ruling

Can this card's [Opponent's Turn] effect move a level 2 Digimon or cards like [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] or [BT13-007 King Drasil_7D6] from the breeding area to the battle area?
Show ruling
It can't move level 2 Digimon or cards like [BT13-007 King Drasil_7D6] because cards without DP can't be moved to the battle area. It can move [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] because it has DP.
When I have a Digimon with [Greymon] in its name and my opponent has 1 Digimon with 6000 DP and 1 with 4000 DP, can I choose the target to delete with this card's effect from these 2 Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. If you have a Digimon with [Greymon] in its name, delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with the lowest DP.
Can I use this card to place 1 [Greymon] and 1 [MetalGreymon] from my trash under [Agumon] but choose to not digivolve into [WarGreymon] in my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. This effect reads "may digivolve into [WarGreymon] in your hand," therefore you can choose to not digivolve after placing [Greymon] and [MetalGreymon] from your trash under [Agumon].
My opponent's Digimon was targeted by this card's effect, then it digivolved and now has more digivolution cards than my chosen Digimon. Can my opponent's Digimon now attack and block?
Show ruling
No, it can't. If the number of digivolution cards under the opponent's Digimon targeted by this effect is less than or equal to those of your chosen Digimon at the timing when this card's effect activates, the effect will continue, even if the target's number of digivolution cards later increases.
Can this card's effect delete 1 of my [Angemon] even when my opponent has no Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
I used this card when I had a Tamer with [Mimi Tachikawa] in its name. If my Tamer with [Mimi Tachikawa] in its name is removed from the battle area by an effect after activating this card, can my opponent's Digimon that was affected by the "doesn't unsuspend" effect now unsuspend?
Show ruling
No, it can't. If you have a Tamer with [Mimi Tachikawa] in its name at the timing when this effect activates, your opponent's Digimon that was affected by the "doesn't unsuspend" effect doesn't unsuspend even if your Tamer with [Mimi Tachikawa] in its name is later removed from the battle area.
Can this card's effect digivolve any level Digimon into a Digimon card with [Sukamon] in its name in my hand as long as it is a non-white Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Can this card's effect digivolve a Digimon in the breeding area into a Digimon card with [Sukamon] in its name in my hand?
Show ruling
No, it can't. This effect doesn't target Digimon in breeding areas.
What does this card's "(Rule) Name: Also treated as having [Sukamon]" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
This is a special rule for this card that treats it as a card that has [Sukamon] in its name. This is a rule and not an effect, therefore this card is treated as having [Sukamon] in its name when the card is in your hand, trash, or any other area.
Also treated as having [Sukamon]" Can this card be selected as the target of an effect that targets exactly [Sukamon] due to the text "(Rule) Name: Also treated as having [Sukamon]"?
Show ruling
No, it can't. This card's name is treated as having [Sukamon] in its name, but it is not treated as [Sukamon].
Can this card become a target for effects that activate for Digimon with [Sukamon] in their names?
Show ruling
No, it can't. This card is an Option card, therefore it can't become a target for an effect that targets Digimon.
Can this card's effect return the target cards to the top of the deck even when my opponent has no Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
While I have a Tamer with [Tai Kamiya] in its name and my opponent has a Digimon with 10000 DP or more, can I use an effect that digivolves my Digimon to digivolve my [Agumon] in the battle area into this card in my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can this card's [When Attacking] effect delete this Digimon even when my opponent has no Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Can I use this card's [On Deletion] effect to hatch in my breeding area when I have a Digimon in my breeding area and a Tamer?

If I have a yellow card with the [Vaccine] trait in my hand when this card's inherited effect activates, do I have to place it at the bottom of my security stack?
Show ruling
No, you don't have to place it. If there are requirements for the target card and that card is in a private area, performing the action is optional.
My Digimon's effect gave me <Draw 1> and trashed 1 card in my hand. The number of cards in my hand was the same before and after the effect activated, so does this card's inherited effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
Can I use this card's inherited effect to attack using a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards even when it's suspended?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This effect does not allow you to attack with Digimon that are in a state where they can't attack.
When I have 2 Digimon with this card in their digivolution cards, can I use this card's inherited effect to attack using these 2 Digimon at the end of my turn?
Show ruling
No, you can't. At the end of your turn, the inherited effects on these cards activate, the activation order is decided, and then the attack occurs for the 1st Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards. After activation of effects that are triggered upon attack declaration such as [When Attacking] effects and "when one of your Digimon attacks" effects but before the counter timing, the next activation would occur for the other inherited effect that was pending activation, but because the 1st Digimon is still attacking, you can't make a new attack declaration, and the 2nd Digimon's effect activation fails.
My red Digimon attacked the opponent player and was blocked by an opponent's Digimon. Does this Digimon's effect activate in such cases?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates. This card's effect activates before your opponent blocks, therefore it can't be canceled even if a block is performed after activation.
My Digimon attacked the opponent player and was blocked by an opponent's Digimon. Does this Digimon's effect activate in such cases?
Show ruling

If the cards I reveal from my deck for this card's [On Play] effect include only either a Digimon card or a Tamer card with the [SoC] trait, can I only add 1 card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, even if you only reveal one of the applicable cards, you can still add it to your hand.
If the Tamer card revealed for this card's [On Play] effect doesn't have the [SoC] trait, does that mean I can't add it to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes. If the Tamer card doesn't have the [SoC] trait, you can't add it to your hand.
If the cards revealed for this card's [On Play] effect include both a Digimon card and Tamer card with the [SoC] trait, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining cards at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. If you have cards that are targets of this effect, you must add as many cards to your hand as possible.
Can I use this card's effect to attack even when this Digimon is suspended?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This effect does not allow you to attack with Digimon that are in a state where they can't attack.
I activated this card's effect and paid 2 cost. This moved the memory to 1 or more on my opponent’s side. Can this Digimon attack?
Show ruling
Yes, it can attack.
If this effect moved the memory to 1 or more on my opponent’s side, is the <Security A. +1> gained for the turn negated for attacks with this effect?
Show ruling
No, <Security A. +1> isn't negated. Even if the memory moves to 1 or more on your opponent's side, while this effect is activating or if there are any effects that are pending activation, the end of turn timing doesn't come until they finish activating.
What do this card's "if your opponent has 4 or less memory" and "if they have 4 or more" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
It means that the condition for "if your opponent has 4 or less memory" is fulfilled when the memory is at 1 through 10 on your side, 0, or 1 through 4 on your opponent's side at the timing when this effect activates. Similarly, the condition for "if they have 4 or more" is fulfilled when the memory is at 4 through 10 on your opponent's side at the timing when this effect activates.
If my opponent has 4 memory when this effect activates, do both the effect where 1 of my opponent's Digimon with 8000 DP or more can't attack until the end of their turn and the effect where I delete 1 of their Digimon with 6000 DP or less activate?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
What does this card's "if your opponent has 4 or more memory" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
It means that the condition is fulfilled when the memory is at 4 through 10 on your opponent's side at the timing when this effect activates.
What does this card's "if you have 4 or less memory" mean, exactly?

Yes, it activates.
If the digivolution cards under the target opponent's Digimon increase to become more than those under this Digimon after this card's inherited effect activates, can my opponent's Digimon now attack?
Show ruling
No, it can't. If the number of digivolution cards under the target opponent's Digimon is less than or equal to those of the Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards at the timing when this effect activates, the target Digimon can't attack until the effect ends at the end of your opponent's turn, even if the number of its digivolution cards later increases.
Does this card’s [On Play] effect activate when my opponent has no Digimon in their battle area?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
I used this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect to <Draw 1>, then I had 5 or more cards in your hand and trashed 1 card in my hand. The number of cards in my hand was the same before and after the effect activated, so does this card's [All Turns] effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
Can I use this card's [On Play] effect to add a card to my hand when only 1 level 6 or higher card is among the revealed cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. In such cases, you add as many cards to your hand as possible.
Do [On Play] effects activate for Digimon played into the breeding area by this card's [End of Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, the effect doesn’t activate for Digimon in breeding areas.
Do "when a Digimon is played" effects trigger for Digimon played into the breeding area by this card's [End of Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, Digimon in breeding areas aren't referenced by effects, so they don't trigger.
I used this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to play a Digimon into the breeding area, and another effect moved the memory to 0 or more, and my turn continued. If the Digimon that was played into the breeding area is then moved to the battle area by an effect, can that Digimon attack?
Show ruling
No. It can't attack because the "Digimon can't attack the turn they came into play" rule still applies to Digimon played into the breeding area.
Can I use this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to play a Digimon into the breeding area when it's affected by a "Digimon can't be played by effects" effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. A "can't be played by effects" effect affects a player when it activates, therefore the act of playing a Digimon itself won't be possible, whether in the breeding area or the battle area.
Does this card’s [On Play] effect activate when my opponent has no Digimon in their battle area?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
If I use [BT15-052 Puppetmon], [BT15-066 Machinedramon], or [BT15-079 Piedmon]'s [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect to play this card from my hand, does this card's [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t activate. It won't activate because the trigger timing for this card's [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect has already passed when [BT15-052 Puppetmon], [BT15-066 Machinedramon], or [BT15-079 Piedmon]'s [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect is used to play this card, so it won't trigger until the end of your opponent's next turn.
When I had 3 security cards at the start of my main phase, I used this card's effect to return 1 card from my security stack to the hand which reduced my security stack to 2 cards. Does this card's "you may place 1 yellow Digimon card with the [Vaccine] trait from your hand at the top or bottom of your security stack" effect still activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
What does this card's "(Rule) Name: Also treated as [Numemon]" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
This is a special rule for this card that treats it as a card that has the [Numemon] name. This is a rule and not an effect, therefore this card is treated as having the [Numemon] name when the card is in your hand, breeding area, or any other area.
Can this card be selected as the target of an effect that targets exactly [Numemon] due to the text "(Rule) Name: Also treated as [Numemon]"?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
If this card’s [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect activates on an opponent's Digimon with 3000 DP or less, then its DP is reduced to 0 and it's deleted, does the "[On Deletion] Lose 1 memory" effect given to my opponent's Digimon at the same time cause my opponent to lose 1 memory?
Show ruling
Yes, your opponent loses 1 memory.
When digivolving into this card, do the [When Digivolving] effects on digivolution cards with [Gammamon] in their names activate?
Show ruling
Yes, they activate. This card's "This Digimon gains all effects of cards with [Gammamon] in their names in this Digimon's digivolution cards" effect is an [All Turns] effect, so it will activate as soon as the digivolution is confirmed. Therefore, [When Evolving] effects are gained and will trigger.
I digivolve a Digimon with [Gammamon] in its name and a [When Digivolving] <Blitz> effect into this card. Can I activate the [When Digivolving] <Blitz> effect through this card's [All Turns] effect and attack?
Show ruling
Yes, if the memory gauge is now at 1 or greater on your opponent's side, you can activate <Blitz> .
Does this card's [All Turns] effect and inherited effect allow me to activate the inherited effect of a digivolution card with [Gammamon] in its name as an effect of this card?
Show ruling
No, this card's [All Turns] effect and inherited effect don't affect the inherited effects of digivolution cards with [Gammamon] in their names.
I have 2 Digimon in play. Can I use this card's [All Turns] effect to give -2000 DP each to 2 of my opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. The effect only targets 1 of your opponent's Digimon.
If this Digimon is unsuspended, then it's suspended by an opponent's "Suspend 1 of your opponent's Digimon. That Digimon can't unsuspend during your opponent's next unsuspend phase" effect, are effects that prevent unsuspending during the unsuspend phase negated?
Show ruling
Yes. It's no longer affected by your opponent's effects as soon as it's suspended, so it can now unsuspend.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect prevent [Security] effects on my opponent's Security Digimon from affecting this Digimon when it's suspended?
Show ruling
Yes, it isn't affected. [Security] effects on Security Digimon are treated as Digimon effects, so the "this Digimon isn't affected by the effects of your opponent's Digimon" effect prevents such effects from affecting this Digimon.
If this Digimon is unsuspended, then it's suspended by an opponent's "Suspend 1 of your opponent's Digimon. That Digimon can't unsuspend during your opponent's next unsuspend phase" effect, are effects that prevent unsuspending during the unsuspend phase negated?
Show ruling
Yes. It's no longer affected by your opponent's effects as soon as it's suspended, so it can now unsuspend.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect prevent [Security] effects on my opponent's Security Digimon from affecting this Digimon when it's suspended?
Show ruling
Yes, it isn't affected. [Security] effects on Security Digimon are treated as Digimon effects, so the "this Digimon isn't affected by the effects of your opponent's Digimon" effect prevents such effects from affecting this Digimon.
Can I use this card's [On Play] effect to add a card to my hand when only 1 level 6 or higher card is among the revealed cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. In such cases, you add as many cards to your hand as possible.
Do [On Play] effects activate for Digimon played into the breeding area by this card's [End of Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, the effect doesn’t activate for Digimon in breeding areas.
Do "when a Digimon is played" effects trigger for Digimon played into the breeding area by this card's [End of Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, Digimon in breeding areas aren't referenced by effects, so they don't trigger.
I used this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to play a Digimon into the breeding area, and another effect moved the memory to 0 or more, and my turn continued. If the Digimon that was played into the breeding area is then moved to the battle area by an effect, can that Digimon attack?
Show ruling
No. It can't attack because the "Digimon can't attack the turn they came into play" rule still applies to Digimon played into the breeding area.
Can I use this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to play a Digimon into the breeding area when it's affected by a "Digimon can't be played by effects" effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. A "can't be played by effects" effect affects a player when it activates, therefore the act of playing a Digimon itself won't be possible, whether in the breeding area or the battle area.
If I use [BT15-031 MetalSeadramon], [BT15-066 Machinedramon], or [BT15-079 Piedmon]'s [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect to play this card from my hand, does this card's [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t. It won't activate because the trigger timing for this card's [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect has already passed when [BT15-031 MetalSeadramon], [BT15-066 Machinedramon], or [BT15-079 Piedmon]'s [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect is used to play this card, so it won't trigger until the end of your opponent's next turn.
Can this card digivolve into a 2-color Digimon that includes white?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
If this Digimon is unsuspended, then it's suspended by an opponent's "Suspend 1 of your opponent's Digimon. That Digimon can't unsuspend during your opponent's next unsuspend phase" effect, are effects that prevent unsuspending during the unsuspend phase negated?
Show ruling
Yes. It's no longer affected by your opponent's effects as soon as it's suspended, so it can now unsuspend.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect prevent [Security] effects on my opponent's Security Digimon from affecting this Digimon when it's suspended?
Show ruling
Yes, it isn't affected. [Security] effects on Security Digimon are treated as Digimon effects, so the "this Digimon isn't affected by the effects of your opponent's Digimon" effect prevents such effects from affecting this Digimon.
Can this card's [When Digivolving] effect suspend just 1 of my opponent's Digimon or 1 of their Tamers when they have 1 of each?
Show ruling
No, it can't. You must suspend as many as possible.
If the cards I reveal from my deck for this card's [On Play] effect include only either a card with the [Machine]/[Cyborg] trait or a black Tamer card, can I only add 1 card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, even if you only reveal one of the applicable cards, you can still add it to your hand.
If the cards I reveal from my deck for this card's [On Play] effect include both a card with the [Machine]/[Cyborg] trait and a black Tamer card, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining cards at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. If you have cards that are targets of this effect, you must add as many cards to your hand as possible.
If I place 1 [Shuu Yulin] from my hand as this Digimon's bottom digivolution card at the start of my main phase, does this card's effect prevent it from being affected by the [Security] effects of my opponent's Security Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it isn't affected. [Security] effects on Security Digimon are treated as Digimon effects, so the "this Digimon isn't affected by the effects of your opponent's Digimon" effect prevents such effects from affecting this Digimon.
I activated this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect and suspended 1 of my opponent's Digimon when a Tamer card with the [DigiPolice] trait was in this Digimon's digivolution cards. If the Tamer card with the [DigiPolice] trait is then removed from this Digimon's digivolution cards, can my opponent's Digimon that I suspended now unsuspend?
Show ruling
No. As long as the conditions were met at the time you activated the effect, the effect will persist and it can't unsuspend until the end of your opponent’s turn, even if the conditions are no longer met at a later point.
What does this card's "while this card is revealed from the deck, its name is also treated as [Omnimon]" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
This effect means that this card is also treated as a card with [Omnimon] in its name while it's flipped over from the deck by a "reveal this card from the deck" effect. If the effect is an effect such as "add 1 [Omnimon] from the revealed cards," you can use that effect to add this card to the hand.
What does the "[Agumon]/[Greymon]×[Gabumon]/[Garurumon]" specified in this card's DigiXros requirements mean?
Show ruling
It means that you can place up to a total of 2 cards consisting of either 1 [Agumon] or [Greymon] and 1 [Gabumon] and [Garurumon] in the digivolution cards for the DigiXros.
Can I use this card's [On Play] effect to add a card to my hand when only 1 level 6 or higher card is among the revealed cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. In such cases, you add as many cards to your hand as possible.
Do [On Play] effects activate for Digimon played into the breeding area by this card's [End of Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, the effect doesn’t activate for Digimon in breeding areas.
Do "when a Digimon is played" effects trigger for Digimon played into the breeding area by this card's [End of Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, Digimon in breeding areas aren't referenced by effects, so they don't trigger.
I used this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to play a Digimon into the breeding area, and another effect moved the memory to 0 or more, and my turn continued. If the Digimon that was played into the breeding area is then moved to the battle area by an effect, can that Digimon attack?
Show ruling
No. It can't attack because the "Digimon can't attack the turn they came into play" rule still applies to Digimon played into the breeding area.
Can I use this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to play a Digimon into the breeding area when it's affected by a "Digimon can't be played by effects" effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. A "can't be played by effects" effect affects a player when it activates, therefore the act of playing a Digimon itself won't be possible, whether in the breeding area or the battle area.
What happens when I use this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect and only 1 card with the [Machine]/[Cyborg]/[SoC] trait is among the revealed cards?
Show ruling
When only 1 of such cards is revealed, it's placed as this Digimon's bottom digivolution card according to the effect's processing order. You can't add a card to your hand.
Does the card added to the hand from among the revealed cards for this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect also have to have the [Machine]/[Cyborg]/[SoC] trait?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
If I use [BT15-052 MetalSeadramon], [BT15-052 Puppetmon], or [BT15-079 Piedmon]'s [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect to play this card from my hand, does this card's [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t. It won't activate because the trigger timing for this card's [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect has already passed when [BT15-052 MetalSeadramon], [BT15-079 Puppetmon], or [BT15-079 Piedmon]'s [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect is used to play this card, so it won't trigger until the end of your opponent's next turn.

Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
What does this card's "[On Deletion] If your opponent has 1 or less memory, <Draw 1>" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
It means that you <Draw 1> when the memory is at 1 through 10 on your side, 0, or 1 on your opponent's side at the timing when this Digimon is deleted.
If this card's [On Deletion] effect activates when my opponent has 1 memory, do both the <Draw 1> and "gain 1 memory" effects activate?
Show ruling
Yes, both activate.
Can I activate the "if a Tamer card with the [SoC] trait is in this Digimon's digivolution cards, <Draw 1>" effect in this card's [When Attacking] effect even if I don't perform "by trashing 1 card in your hand, delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with 3000 DP or less"?
Show ruling
No, you can't activate it. If you don't perform the action specified for "by X" in such an effect, the rest of the effect won't activate.
If I perform "by trashing 1 card in your hand," does "if a Tamer card with the [SoC] trait is in this Digimon's digivolution cards, <Draw 1>" effect in this card's [When Attacking] effect activate even if my opponent doesn't have a Digimon with 3000 DP or less?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
What does this card's "when [...] would leave the battle area" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
"When [...] would leave the battle area" refers to when this Digimon is placed in the trash, returned to the hand/deck, placed in the security stack, moved to the breeding area, or placed under another card.
Which player chooses whether or not a card is trashed and chooses the card to trash for this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving]effect?

Can I activate the "if a Tamer card with the [SoC] trait is in this Digimon's digivolution cards, <Draw 1>" effect in this card's [When Digivolving] [When Attacking] effect even if I don't perform "by trashing 1 card in your hand, this Digimon gets +2000 DP for the turn"?
Show ruling
No, you can't activate it. If you don't perform the action specified for "by X" in such an effect, the rest of the effect won't activate.

Show ruling
Yes, you can. In such cases, you add as many cards to your hand as possible.
Do [On Play] effects activate for Digimon played into the breeding area by this card's [End of Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, the effect doesn’t activate for Digimon in breeding areas.
Do "when a Digimon is played" effects trigger for Digimon played into the breeding area by this card's [End of Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, Digimon in breeding areas aren't referenced by effects, so they don't trigger.
I used this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to play a Digimon into the breeding area, and another effect moved the memory to 0 or more, and my turn continued. If the Digimon that was played into the breeding area is then moved to the battle area by an effect, can that Digimon attack?
Show ruling
No. It can't attack because the "Digimon can't attack the turn they came into play" rule still applies to Digimon played into the breeding area.
Can I use this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to play a Digimon into the breeding area when it's affected by a "Digimon can't be played by effects" effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. A "can't be played by effects" effect affects a player when it activates, therefore the act of playing a Digimon itself won't be possible, whether in the breeding area or the battle area.
What happens for this card’s [When Attacking] effect if my opponent doesn't have any level 4 or lower Digimon cards in their trash?
Show ruling
Because nothing can be played from their trash, you can't switch the target of this card's attack, and the attack will continue using the target that was specified upon the attack declaration.
When an effect plays an opponent's Digimon into the breeding area, does this card's [All Turns] effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t activate.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect also activate when one of my effects plays an opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling

If I use [BT15-052 MetalSeadramon], [BT15-052 Puppetmon], or [BT15-066 Machinedramon]'s [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect to play this card from my hand, does this card's [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t. It won't activate because the trigger timing for this card's [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect has already passed when [BT15-031 MetalSeadramon], [BT15-052 Puppetmon], or [BT15-066 Machinedramon]'s [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect is used to play this card, so it won't trigger until the end of your opponent's next turn.
Can this card digivolve into a 2-color Digimon that includes white?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
What does this card's "for each of your opponent's security cards, remove 2000 from this effect's playable card's DP maximum" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
It means that when you use this effect to play a Digimon card, you must choose one with the DP reduced from the maximum shown by 2000 for each each card in your opponent's security stack. The fewer cards in your opponent's security stack, the greater the DP can be for the Digimon card played. For example, if your opponent has 3 security cards, the 13000 DP maximum is reduced by 6000, meaning that you can play a Digimon card with 7000 DP or less.
My Digimon's effect gave me <Draw 1> and trashed 1 card in my hand. The number of cards in my hand was the same before and after the effect activated, so does this card's [Your Turn] effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
Can I use the [End of All Turns] effect in this card's inherited effect to play this card itself when this card is in a Digimon's digivolution cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I use the [End of All Turns] effect in this card's inherited effect to play this card itself when this card is in a Digimon's digivolution cards?

Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
What does this card's "for each of your opponent's security cards, remove 2000 from this DP deletion effect's maximum" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
It means that when you use this effect to delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon, you must choose one with the DP reduced from the maximum shown by 2000 for each each card in your opponent's security stack. The fewer cards in your opponent's security stack, the greater the DP can be for the Digimon card you delete. For example, if your opponent has 3 security cards, the 15000 DP maximum is reduced by 6000, meaning that you can delete an opponent's Digimon with 9000 DP or less.
When I have a Digimon with [Gabumon]/[Garurumon] in its name and my opponent has 1 level 3 Digimon and 1 level 4 Digimon, can I choose the target to return to the hand for this card's effect from these 2 Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. If you have a Digimon with [Gabumon]/[Garurumon] in its name, you must return 1 of your opponent's Digimon with the lowest DP to the hand.
Can I use this card to place 1 [Garurumon] and 1 [WereGarurumon] from my trash under [Gabumon] but choose to not digivolve into [MetalGarurumon] in my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. This effect reads "may digivolve into [MetalGarurumon] in your hand," therefore you can choose to not digivolve after placing [Garurumon] and [WereGarurumon] from your trash under [Gabumon].
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to give -6000 DP twice to the same Digimon for a total of -12000 DP?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
When I had a Tamer with [Izzy Izumi] in its name, I used this card to give 1 of my opponent's Digimon "[On Deletion] Trash the top card of your security stack." If I later lose my Tamer with [Izzy Izumi] in its name, will my opponent's Digimon no longer be affected by that effect?
Show ruling
No. As long as the conditions were met at the time you activated the effect, the effect will persist and will last until the end of your opponent’s turn, even if the conditions are no longer met at a later point.
Can I only trash cards with the [Machine]/[Cyborg] trait from among the cards revealed from my deck for this card's [Main] and [Security] effects?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
What happens when I use this card's effect and only 1 card with the [Machine]/[Cyborg]/ trait is among the cards revealed from my deck?
Show ruling
When only 1 of such cards is revealed, it's added to the hand according to the effect's processing order. You can't trash a card.
If I use this card when my opponent has a Digimon with a play cost of 3 and a Tamer with a play cost of 4, can I delete my opponent's Tamer with a play cost of 4 as the Tamer with the lowest play cost?
Show ruling
No, you can't. You must delete the card with the lowest play cost from among all your opponent's Digimon and Tamers for this effect. In the example given in the question, you would delete the Digimon with a play cost of 3 as the card with the lowest play cost.
If I use this card's effect to trash a Lv.- Digimon card in my hand, can I delete my opponent's Lv.- Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. "Lv.-" Digimon and Digimon cards without a level can't be targeted by effects that have levels in their conditions.
Can I use this card's effect to delete just 1 of my opponent's Digimon if my opponent has both level 4 and level 6 Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. You must delete as many as possible.
While I have a Tamer with [Matt Ishida] in its name and my opponent has a Digimon with 10000 DP or more, can I use an effect that digivolves my Digimon to digivolve my [Gabumon] in the battle area into this card in my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
When this card would be played, can the [Dark Masters] trait cards I place under this card be from the digivolution cards of Digimon or under Tamers in my battle area?
Show ruling
No, you can't activate it. When placing cards from the battle area under this card, you can only choose the top cards.
If I don't place 1 level 6 or lower card from my trash as this Digimon's bottom digivolution card for this card's [End of Your Turn] effect, can I activate the part of the effect after "then"?
Show ruling
No, you can't. If you don't perform the action specified for "by X" in such an effect, the rest of the effect won't activate.
Does this card's effect reference the card for the Digimon before or after it digivolves?
Show ruling
It references the Digimon after it digivolves.
Can this card's [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect delete this Digimon even when my opponent has no Digimon?
Show ruling

Yes, it activates.
After gaining <Security A. +1> from this card's [All Turns] effect during my opponent's turn, can this Digimon gain <Security A. +1> again from this card's [All Turns] effect during my next turn?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Can I activate this card's [All Turns] effect twice when I use one of my Digimon with <Security Attack +1> to check 2 cards in my opponent's security stack?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This effect is triggered "when a card is removed from your opponent's security stack," so even when you check multiple cards in your opponent's security stack, it is triggered and activates upon the first check. Also, this is a [Once Per Turn] effect, so this effect activates when a card is removed from their security stack upon the first check, and you can't activate the effect again upon the next check.
If the [All Turns] effect gives this Digimon <Security A. +1> when this card attacks and I check my opponent's security stack, do I get an additional security check?
Show ruling
Yes, you do.
An opponent's Digimon with <Security A. +1> and 8000 DP or less attacked and a security check occurred. If I use this card's [All Turns] effect to delete my opponent's attacking Digimon before the 2nd security check is performed, can I prevent the 2nd security check?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
My Digimon attacked a player and a security check occurred. If this card leaves the battle area due to the revealed card's [Security] effect, does this card’s [All Turns] effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t activate. The effect triggers when a card is removed from a security stack, but this card is removed from the battle area before it can activate.
This card digivolved from [BT14-018 Goldramon]. This Digimon gains all effects of [Goldramon] in digivolution cards, but does [BT14-018 Goldramon]'s [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates. This card's "this Digimon gains all effects of [Goldramon] in this Digimon's digivolution cards" effect is an [All Turns] effect, so it will activate as soon as the digivolution is confirmed. Therefore, [When Evolving] effects are gained and will trigger.
This card digivolved from [EX3-035 Goldramon]. This Digimon gains all effects of [Goldramon] in digivolution cards, but after [EX3-035 Goldramon]'s [When Digivolving] effect activates and I return [EX3-069 Trial of the Four Great Dragons] from the trash to the hand, can I use this card's [When Digivolving] effect to use [EX3-069 Trial of the Four Great Dragons] from my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If this card's [All Turns] effect is used to gain a [When Digivolving] effect, this card's [When Digivolving] effect and the [When Digivolving] effect gained from the [All Turns] effect will trigger simultaneously upon the digivolution timing, therefore you may choose the activation order.
Can I use this card's [Your Turn] effect to activate an [On Deletion] effect at the end of an attack if the effect has conditions for activating, such as [EX4-053 Falcomon]'s inherited effect?
Show ruling
No. The effect will trigger, but it can't be activated because its conditions aren't met.
Does this card's effect reference the card for the Digimon before or after it digivolves?
Show ruling
It references the Digimon after it digivolves.
Does this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect prevent deletion in battles against Security Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it prevents deletion.
If I have exactly 3 cards in my security stack, do I activate both the "unsuspend 1 of your Digimon" effect and the "return 1 of your opponent's level 4 or lower Digimon to the bottom of the deck" effect when activating this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
Does this card’s [When Digivolving] effect activate when performing a non-DNA digivolve?
Show ruling
The "suspend all of your opponent's Digimon with as many or fewer digivolution cards as this Digimon" part activates even if not DNA digivolving. The "none of their Digimon can unsuspend until the end of their turn" part only activates if DNA digivolving.
Which effect activates first, an [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect on an opponent's Digimon that was played/digivolved, or this card's [All Turns] effect?
Show ruling
They trigger simultaneously, so the turn player activates their effect first.
If the cards I reveal for this card's [On Play] effect include only two types of cards, one being a [Night Claw] trait card and one being a 2-color card, can I add both types to the hand?
Show ruling
No, you can't. You can only add 1 [Night Claw] trait or 1 2-color card to the hand.
When I use this card's [Start of Your Main Phase] [On Play] effect to digivolve it into a level 4 Digimon card with the [Holy Beast]/[Free] trait in the trash, can it digivolve regardless of its digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
No, this card's effect does not allow ignoring digivolution requirements, so you can only digivolve into a card that meets the digivolution requirements.
This Digimon attacked a player and a security check occurred. If this card leaves the battle area due to the revealed card's [Security] effect, does this card’s [Your Turn] effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t activate. The effect triggers when a card is removed from a security stack, but this card is removed from the battle area before it can activate.
If I have exactly 3 cards in my security stack, do I activate both the "1 of your opponent's Digimon gets -4000 DP until the end of their turn" effect and the "1 of their Digimon gains <Security A. -2> until the end of their turn" effect when activating this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
Does this card's [End of Opponent’s Turn] effect activate when a player has 0 cards in their security stack?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates. In such cases, only the player with 1 or more security cards trashes the top card of their security stack.
If the cards I reveal from my deck for this card's [On Play] effect include only either a card with [Pulsemon] in its text or a card with the [Abadin Electronics] trait, can I only add 1 card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, even if you only reveal one of the applicable cards, you can still add it to your hand.
If the cards I reveal from my deck for this card's [On Play] effect include both a card with [Pulsemon] in its text and a card with the [Abadin Electronics] trait, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining cards at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. If you have cards that are targets of this effect, you must add as many cards to your hand as possible.
When I use this card's [Start of Your Main Phase] [On Play] effect to digivolve it into a level 4 Digimon card with the [Insectoid]/[Free] trait in the trash, can it digivolve regardless of its digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
No, this card's effect does not allow ignoring digivolution requirements, so you can only digivolve into a card that meets the digivolution requirements.
If I have exactly 3 cards in my security stack, do I activate both the "suspend 1 of your opponent's Digimon" effect and the "gain 1 memory" effect when activating this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
If I have exactly 3 cards in my security stack, do I activate both the "suspend 1 of your opponent's Digimon. It can't unsuspend during your opponent's next unsuspend phase" effect and the "gain 2 memory" effect when activating this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
When my Digimon with the [Insectoid] trait and this card in its digivolution cards is suspended, can this card's inherited effect switch the target of an opponent's Digimon's attack to that Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Can this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect suspend 1 each of my opponent's Digimon and Tamers?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
If I have exactly 3 cards in my security stack, do I activate both the "trash the top card of your opponent's security stack" effect and the "gain 2 memory" effect when activating this card's [All Turns] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect prevent [Security] effects on my opponent's Security Digimon from affecting this Digimon while it's suspended?
Show ruling
Yes, it isn't affected. [Security] effects on Security Digimon are treated as Digimon effects, so the "this Digimon isn't affected by the effects of your opponent's Digimon" effect prevents such effects from affecting this Digimon.
Does this card's effect reference the card for the Digimon before or after it digivolves?
Show ruling
It references the Digimon after it digivolves.
If I have exactly 3 cards in my security stack, do I activate both the "until the end of your opponent's turn, 1 of your Digimon can't have its DP reduced by your opponent's effects and isn't affected by <De-Digivolve> effects" effect and the "1 of your Digimon gains <Blocker> and <Reboot> until the end of your opponent's turn" effect when activating this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
When my opponent had 2 cards in their security attack, they activated [ST10-06 Mastemon]'s [When Digivolving] effect, and the effect that places a card from their trash in their security stack and the effect that plays a level 5 or lower Digimon card activated. My opponent temporarily has 3 cards in their security stack, then it becomes 2 cards. Can I activate this card's [All Turns] effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't activate it. Even if an effect activates and increases your opponent's security stack, their security stack must have 3 or more cards when the effect finishes activating.
If I have exactly 3 cards in my security stack, do I activate both the "<De-Digivolve 1> 1 of your opponent's Digimon" effect and the "delete 1 of their Digimon with a play cost of 6 or less" effect when activating this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect?

When digivolving into this card, do the [When Digivolving] effects on digivolution cards with [Gammamon] in their names activate?

Therefore, [When Evolving] effects are gained and will trigger.

Does this card’s [When Digivolving] effect place 1 of my opponent's Digimon with as high or lower a level as the total number of cards in my or their security stack at the bottom of their security stack?

I used [BT16-091 Beastly Storm Dance of Affection]'s effect to DNA digivolve into this card, then I used [BT16-091 Beastly Storm Dance of Affection]'s effect to attack. At such times, can a Digimon played using this card's [When Digivolving] effect gain <Rush> and attack?

With this card's inherited effect, can I DNA digivolve into a Digimon card in my hand that doesn’t have [DNA Digivolution]?

This Digimon has a Tamer card in its digivolution cards, and I used its [When Digivolving] effect to digivolve into [AncientGarurumon], then it was affected by a <De-Digivolve> effect and became a Tamer. Does the "delete this Digimon at the end of this turn" effect delete this Tamer at such times?

If the memory moves to 2 or less on my opponent's side during my opponent's turn, does the turn switch to my turn with this card's inherited effect?
Show ruling
No, this effect only applies during your turn. Your opponent's turn continues until the memory moves to 1 or more from your perspective.

However, the "if you have a Digimon with [XX] in its name" condition is no longer met once the Digimon is removed, therefore you don't gain 1 memory.
Can I use this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to attack using my Digimon with [Omnimon] in its name even when it's suspended?

However, a new attack declaration can't be made during an attack, and only the 1st [Omnimon]'s attack can be performed as a result.

Show ruling
Yes, you can. Even if the part after the conditions specified with "by X" in an effect can't be resolved, the effect can still activate.
When my level 5 or higher [Free] trait Digimon would be deleted in battle, I used this card's [All Turns] effect to play a level 4 or lower Digimon card with <Retaliation> in its inherited effects from that Digimon's digivolution cards.

Show ruling
No, you can't. This card's [End of Your Turn] effect does not allow you to attack with Digimon that are in a state where they can't attack.
When I have 2 copies of this Tamer and 2 unsuspended [Free] trait Digimon, can I activate the [End of Your Turn] effect on both copies of this card and attack using both of the [Free] trait Digimon?

The effect will trigger on both copies, but after the attack declaration is made for the 1st Digimon and effects such as [When Attacking] effects have finished activating, the effect on the 2nd copy of this card that was pending activation will activate before the counter timing. However, a new attack declaration can't be made during an attack, and only the 1st Digimon's attack can be performed as a result.

Can I use this card's [Main] effect to digivolve 1 of my [Renamon] into EX4-030 [Kuzuhamon]?
Show ruling
No, you can't. EX4-030 [Kuzuhamon] is treated as if it has [Sakuyamon] in its name. This effect doesn't treat it as if it has the name [Sakuyamon], therefore digivolution isn't possible.
Can I use the [End of All Turns] effect in this card's inherited effect to play this card itself when this card is in a Digimon's digivolution cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I use this card's [Your Turn] effect to digivolve a Digimon other than the played Digimon?

Does "when an effect suspends" in this card's [Your Turn] effect trigger when an attack declaration is made for a Digimon and it's suspended using an effect such as <Blitz> or an "attack using X" effect?

If I use this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to play a copy of this card, can I activate the [End of Your Turn] effect on the newly played copy of this card?

Does this card's <Delay> effect allow me to DNA digivolve into a card other than the Digimon specified by [DNA Digivolution] in the hand?
Show ruling

Show ruling

Show ruling

If this Digimon is unsuspended during my main phase, does an effect that reads "unsuspend 1 of your Digimon" activate this card's "gain 1 memory" effect?
Show ruling

I have 3 cards in my security stack when 2 copies of this Digimon are deleted at the same time. Do the [On Deletion] effects on both cards activate, bringing my security stack up to 5 cards?
Show ruling
No. Even if both Digimon are deleted simultaneously, the effects activate one at a time. When the first Salamon's effect activates, you add 1 card to your security stack, bringing the total up to 4. This means the "3 cards or less" condition for the second Salamon's effect no longer applies. The second Salamon's effect doesn't activate, and your security stack remains at 4 cards.
I use this Digimon to attack an opponent's Digimon, then use this Digimon's inherited effect to reduce the opponent's Digimon to 0 DP and delete it. What happens to the attack?
Show ruling
No battle occurs, and the attack ends. If there are other When Attacking effects, "when one of your Digimon attacks" effects, and/or effects activated at counter timing, they activate, and then the attack ends. If it's then blocked at blocker timing, start a battle with the blocking Digimon.

Show ruling
No, you can't. "Trash all of the digivolution cards of those Digimon" is an explanation of what happens to the digivolution cards of the Digimon when it returns to their hand. It doesn't count as trashing digivolution for the purposes of this card's effect.
I digivolve a Digimon in my breeding area into a Digimon card with [Tyrannomon] in its name. Can I use this Tamer's effect to reduce the digivolution cost by 1?

This card's [When Attacking] effect refers to "your opponent's Digimon with the highest DP." Does this strictly refer to my opponent's Digimon with the highest DP, or does it refer to when I attack an opponent's Digimon with the highest DP out of all Digimon in play, including my own?
Show ruling
It refers strictly to your opponent's Digimon with the highest DP they control. The effect doesn't check the DP of your Digimon.
My opponent has multiple Digimon tied for highest DP. If I attack any one of them, does this card's [When Attacking] effect let me unsuspend this Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes. If your opponent has multiple Digimon tied for highest DP, attacking any of them allows you to unsuspend this Digimon.
My opponent's Digimon with the highest DP is unsuspended. If I attack their unsuspended Digimon with the highest DP, can I unsuspend this Digimon?
Show ruling
No, this Digimon's [When Attacking] effect only lets you unsuspend this Digimon when attacking your opponent's Digimon with the highest DP, regardless of whether it's suspended or not.
I attacked my opponent with a Digimon with this card as one of its digivolution cards, and it was blocked. In this situation, does this card's effect activate?

If the cards I reveal from my deck include only either [RagnaLoardmon] or cards with [Legend-Arms] in their types, can I only add 1 card to my hand?
Show ruling

Show ruling
Yes, you may add them both to your hand.
If the cards I reveal from my deck include both a [RagnaLoardmon] card and a card with [Legend-Arms] in its type, do I only get to add 1 to my hand and have to return the rest to the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. If you have cards that are targets of this effect, you must add as many cards to your hand as possible. However, if the revealed [RagnaLoardmon] has the [Legend-Arms] trait, that card will be treated as a card with the [Legend-Arms] trait. By adding it to your hand, you can return other cards with the [Legend-Arms] trait to the bottom of the deck without adding them to your hand, and if there aren't any other [RagnaLoardmon] revealed, you can add just 1 [RagnaLoardmon] to your hand.

Show ruling
This Digimon is played after the battle with the attacking Digimon, and before the next check is performed.
Can this Digimon Digivolve into a Digimon which has a Digivolution requirement of "Yellow, Level 5?"
Show ruling
Yes, since this Digimon is treated as both red and yellow during your turn, it can digivolve into a Digimon with a digivolution requirement of "Yellow, Level 5."
This card is in my breeding area. Can I digivolve it into a Digimon that requires a yellow Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. [Your Turn] effects don't activate from breeding areas, so the card isn't treated as a yellow card. You can't digivolve it into a Digimon that requires a yellow Digimon.
What does "Original DP" mean?
Show ruling
The DP value printed on a card is its original DP. This card's [When Digivolving] effect causes a target Digimon's DP, regardless of what's written on the card, to be temporarily treated as having 1000 DP.
If this card's [When Digivolving] effect is activated against an opponent's Digimon whose DP has been reduced by 1000 by an effect, what happens to that Digimon?

Show ruling
No, even if the memory counter moves to 1 or greater on your opponent's side temporarily, if activating the effect moves the memory counter back to 0 or greater on your side, your turn continues.
If I use this card's effect to play a Digimon, is it treated as a Security Digimon even in my battle area?

Show ruling
Yes, regardless of the battle's outcome, you get to play this Digimon at the end of the battle.
This card is flipped over during a security check, but the attacking Digimon still has security checks remaining. Is this card played off its [Security] effect first, or do I have to wait until my opponent finishes the rest of their security checks?

Show ruling

Show ruling
This Digimon is played after the battle with the attacking Digimon, and before the next check is performed.
Can this Digimon digivolve into a Digimon with a digivolution condition of "Blue, Level 5"?
Show ruling

This card is in my breeding area. Can I digivolve it into a Digimon that requires a blue Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. [Your Turn] effects don't activate from breeding areas, so the card isn't treated as a yellow card. You can't digivolve it into a Digimon that requires a blue Digimon.
My opponent has this Digimon in play. If I digivolve one of my Digimon that currently has no digivolution cards, does its <Security Attack -1> immediately disappear?
Show ruling
Yes, the moment your Digimon gains a digivolution card, it no longer counts as a "Digimon with no digivolution cards," and loses <Security Attack -1>.
When using this card's effect to place a yellow Digimon card from your trash on your security stack, do I need to show that card to my opponent?
Show ruling
Yes, when moving a card from your trash to your security stack, you must show the card to your opponent so they can confirm it's a yellow Digimon card.
I use this card's effect to give my opponent's Digimon -6000 DP. Later in the turn, I end up with 4 cards in my security stack. Does the -6000 DP effect go away?
Show ruling

If my opponent uses a card like [BT2-020 Gallantmon] to trash a card in my security directly, can I activate this card's effect?

I use [BT-112 Dimension Scissor], which allows 1 of my Digimon to unsuspend every time it deletes an opponent's Digimon.

Show ruling
The opposing Digimon isn't deleted by the effect granted by this card.If the opponent's Digimon has 1 or more digivolution cards at the time you declare the attack, it can't be targeted by the effect granted by this card, even if it loses all of its digivolution cards later.
Can I use this card's effect to return my [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] from the battle area to the hand, then return up to 2 of my opponent's level 4 or lower Digimon to their owners' hands?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If your [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] is chosen as the target to return to the hand for this card's effect, it will ultimately be placed at the bottom of the Digi-Egg deck instead of the hand according to the rules, but it meets this card's "by returning 1 of your Digimon to the hand" condition. A card isn't actually added to the hand, therefore effects such as "when a card is added to the hand" don't trigger.
Can I use this card's effect to return my token that was played as a Digimon from the battle area to the hand, then return up to 2 of my opponent's level 4 or lower Digimon to their owners' hands?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If your token is chosen as the target to return to the hand for this card's effect, it will ultimately be removed from the game instead of being returned to the hand according to the rules, but it meets this card's "by returning 1 of your Digimon to the hand" condition.

If your [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] is chosen as the target to place in the security stack, according to the rules it will be placed at the bottom of the Digi-Egg deck instead of the security stack.

Can I use this card's effect to place my token that was played as a Digimon on top of my security stack from the battle area?
Show ruling
No, you can't. If your token is chosen as the target to place in the security stack, according to the rules it's removed from the game instead of being placed in the security stack. A card isn't actually added to the security stack, therefore effects such as "when a card is added to the security stack" don't trigger.
If I choose my [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] or token that is treated as a Digimon in the battle area as the target for this card's effect, it isn't placed in the security stack. In such cases, do "when a card is removed from the security stack" effects trigger because a card wasn't added to the security stack even though it normally should have been added?

I use this card's effect to give a Digimon +3000 DP. If that Digimon now has 16000 DP or more, does it gain <Blocker>, <Reboot>, and <Security Attack +1>?
Show ruling
Yes, it does. Even if the Digimon's original DP is less than 16000, if it becomes 16000 or greater after getting +3000 DP from this card's effect, it gains <Blocker>, <Reboot>, and <Security Attack +1>.
I use this card's effect to give one of my Digimon <Blocker>, <Reboot>, and <Security Attack +1>. If another effect reduces that Digimon to 15000 or less, does it lose <Blocker>, <Reboot>, and <Security Attack +1>?
Show ruling
No. Once the Digimon meets the conditions to gain <Blocker>, <Reboot>, and <Security Attack +1>, it keeps them until the end of your opponent's next turn, even if its DP is reduced to 15000 or less.
I use this card's effect to give a Digimon +3000 DP, but it still has less than 16000 DP. If I then use another DP-boosting effect to raise its DP to 16000 or more, does it gain <Blocker>, <Reboot>, and <Security Attack +1>?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't. The Digimon must have 16000 DP at the time this card's effect is activated for it to gain <Blocker>, <Reboot>, and <Security Attack +1>.
This card has an effect that reads, "For each of your Digimon with [D-Brigade] in its type, add +1 to the maximum play cost of the Digimon you can choose with this effect." What does this mean?
Show ruling
If you have a Digimon with [D-Brigade] in its type, you can choose a Digimon with a play cost of 4 or less. (3 or less + 1 = 4 or less.) If you have 2 Digimon with [D-Brigade], you can choose a play cost of 5 or less, if you have 3 Digimon it becomes 6 or less, and so on.
If I use this card when I have 9 cards in my trash, does this card become the 10th card in my trash, allowing me to gain 1 memory?
Show ruling
No, Option cards go to the trash after their effects activate, so you still have 9 cards in your trash when the effect checks to see how many cards there are. You don't gain 1 memory.
Can I use this card's [When Attacking] effect on [AncientGarurumon] itself?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.

Show ruling
The effect persists during the same turn, so the Digimon gains a total of +4000 DP.

I use this Digimon's [When Digivolving] effect to place a level 3 Digimon card at the top of its digivolution cards. This Digimon is then targeted with a <De-Digivolve 2> effect. What happens?
Show ruling

Show ruling

I attack my opponent with this Digimon, which has <Security Attack +1>, and flip over a Digimon card with a [Security] effect during the first security check. If this results in a Digimon with no digivolution cards entering my opponent's battle area, does this Digimon gain <Jamming> starting with the next security check?

Show ruling
No. Even if a Security Digimon is reduced to 0 DP, it still battles with the Digimon performing the security check.
This card's [Your Turn] effect reduces a Security Digimon's DP to 0, but it has a [Security] effect. What happens?
Show ruling
The [Security] effect activates normally.
A Security Digimon has its DP reduced by this card's [Your Turn] effect. If that Security Digimon is later played by its [Security] effect, does it still have its DP reduced when it enters play?
Show ruling
No. It's no longer a Security Digimon once it enters play, so it doesn't have its DP reduced by this card's effect.
This card is being deleted. Can I use this card's effect to place it at the bottom of 1 of my green Digimon's digivolution cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
This card that was targeted by [BT11-043 KingSukamon]'s effect and had its name changed to [Sukamon] is deleted. If I have no other [Palmon] in the trash, can I place this same card at the bottom of the digivolution cards of one of my green Digimon from the trash with it's [On Deletion] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.The [On Deletion] effect is activated while treated as [Sukamon], but the name changing effect is lost when the card is deleted and placed in the trash, so you can treat this card as a [Palmon] card.
If the 5 cards revealed with this card's effect don't include both a Digimon card with [Unidentified] in its type and an [Arata Sanada] card, am I allowed to add one of the cards to my hand, or do both cards have to be present?
Show ruling
You can add a card to your hand. As long as one of the cards revealed is either a Digimon card with [Unidentified] in its type or an [Arata Sanada] card, you can add it to your hand.
I use this card's [On Play] effect to check the top card of my deck. What happens to that card?
Show ruling
After checking the card, place it back on top of your deck face down.
A Digimon has <Rush> thanks to this card's inherited effect. If that Digimon digivolves into a Digimon with a different name, can that Digimon attack the same turn it entered play?
Show ruling
No, it can't. The Digimon loses <Rush> when its name changes, so it can't attack.
If I use this card's effect to play a Digimon, is it treated as a Security Digimon even in my battle area?
Show ruling
No, it's treated as a normal Digimon once it comes into play.
Can I play this Digimon with its [Security] effect even if it loses the battle against the attacking Digimon?
Show ruling

Can I digivolve into this card from a [Keramon] in my breeding area?
Show ruling
No, you can't digivolve from a [Keramon] in your breeding area using this card's effect.
What's a token?
Show ruling

Can I digivolve one of my [Keramon] in the battle area into this card in the hand when an effect to digivolve one of my Digimon is activated?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
This card's <Digi-Burst> effect reads, "Delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with a play cost of 6 or less. If no Digimon was deleted by this effect..." How does this effect work, exactly?
Show ruling
"If no Digimon was deleted by this effect" refers to times where, when <Digi-Burst> is activated, your opponent doesn't have a Digimon with a play cost of 6 or less in play, or an effect makes it so that there are no Digimon you can delete. Essentially, it means there was no Digimon in play that could be deleted by "Delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with a play cost of 6 or less."
If my opponent has a Digimon with a play cost of 6 or less in play, can I activate this card's <Digi-Burst> and choose not to delete my opponent's Digimon in order to trash the top card of their security stack?
Show ruling
No. If you use this card's <Digi-Burst> and your opponent has a Digimon with a play cost of 6 or less, you must target that Digimon when you activate the effect. If a valid target exists, you must choose it as part of the effect.
My opponent has 2 Digimon in play with play costs of 6 or less. One of them has an effect that reads, "This Digimon can't be deleted by your opponent's effects," while the other does not. If I activate this card's <Digi-Burst>, can I choose the Digimon that "can't be deleted by your opponent's effects" in order to trash the top card of my opponent's security stack?
Show ruling
Yes. Digimon with play costs of 6 or less are valid targets. If you choose it, the "can't be deleted by your opponent's effects" will prevent it from being deleted, allowing you to trash the top card of your opponent's security stack instead.
This Digimon's DP is reduced to 0 by an opponent's effect. Does this card's [On Deletion] effect activate?
Show ruling
No. When a Digimon is deleted at 0 DP, it's deleted by the game rules, not a card effect, so the game doesn't treat it as if it was deleted by an effect.
Can this card's effect be used to return a level 3 Digimon card with an [On Deletion] inherited effect from my trash to my hand?
Show ruling
No. This effect can't be used to return a level 3 Digimon card with an [On Deletion] inherited effect from your trash to your hand.
If I have another Digimon in play, can I choose any one of this card's three effects?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If I don't have another Digimon in play, what order do I activate this card's three effects in?
Show ruling
The owner of the card gets to decide the order they activate in.
What's a token?
Show ruling
A token is a special card played from an effect that is treated as a Digimon or Tamer. This card's effect can play tokens treated as Digimon named "Diaboromon." For detailed rules pertaining to tokens, check the rule manual.
Do Diaboromon tokens meet the white color requirement?
Show ruling
Yes, they do.
When playing this card, can I delete one of my [Diaboromon] tokens to reduce its play cost by 12?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
When this card digivolves, can I activate <Blitz> first to attack, then use the "Unsuspend this Digimon" effect to unsuspend this Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes. If you activate <Blitz> first, you declare the attack and suspend the Digimon at that point in time. If you then activate the "Unsuspend this Digimon" effect, you can unsuspend this Digimon itself.
When this Digimon is deleted, I activate this card's [All Turns] effect to have this Digimon remain in the battle area. Does this cause "When another Digimon is deleted" effects to activate?
Show ruling
No. This card's [All Turns] effect prevents other effects from deleting this Digimon or returning it to its owner's hand or deck, so it isn't treated as being deleted by the game rules.
This [When Digivolving] effect plays up to 2 black and/or purple Digimon cards with play costs of 8 or less from my trash. Can I play cards that weren't trashed using this card's effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. Any cards in your trash that are black and/or purple Digimon cards with play costs of 8 or less can be played.
What's a token?
Show ruling
Tokens are special cards that some effects put into play to represent Digimon or Tamers. This card's effect, for example, plays a token that's treated as a Digimon named [Diaboromon]. For a more detailed explanation of how tokens work, check the official rule manual.

Show ruling
Yes, it does.
If I have 2 copies of this Tamer in play and attack with a level 3 Digimon, do I lose 2 memory?
Show ruling
Yes. Each effect activates separately, resulting in you losing a total of 2 memory.
I have a Digimon that digivolved from a Tamer card. Can I use this card's effect to place a red level 4 or lower Digimon card from my hand at the bottom of one of my Digimon that digivolved from a Tamer card?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
I use this card's effect to place a Digimon card under one of my Digimon that digivolved from a Tamer card. If <De-Digivolve> causes that card to become a Tamer card again, what happens to the digivolution cards under it?
Show ruling
It remains stacked on top of the digivolution cards, but since it's no longer a Digimon, it can no longer activate inherited effects. If it digivolves back into a Digimon, it will be able to use inherited effects again.
When choosing which Digimon to trash a digivolution card from and which Digimon to return to its owner's deck with this card's effect, can I choose different cards for each one?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If I have 2 Digimon in play, can I activate this card's effect to give an opponent's Digimon -3000 DP twice, for a total of -6000 DP?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If my opponent has a level 7 Digimon in play and I use this card when my opponent's security stack is empty, do I win the game?
Show ruling
No. There are no security cards to trash, but this doesn't allow you to win the game.
My opponent activates this card's [Security] effect. If I then attack with a Digimon that has <Piercing> and delete an opponent's Digimon in battle, do I check my opponent's security cards?
Show ruling
Yes, it's possible to attack your opponent's Digimon, which means you can perform checks off of <Piercing>.
My opponent doesn't have a Digimon I can target with <De-Digivolve 2> in play. Can I still use this card to create a [Diaboromon] token?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
I only have a [Diaboromon] token in my battle area. Can I use this card to create a new [Diaboromon] token?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
My opponent doesn't have a Digimon I can target with <De-Digivolve 3> in play. Can I still use this card to delete all of my opponent's Digimon with play costs of 3 or less?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
I use this card's effect to play a card like [BT5-081 ChaosGallantmon], which has an effect that reads, "delete 1 of your other Digimon to..." Does deleting the purple Digimon for this card's effect cause the "delete 1 of your other Digimon" effect to activate?
Show ruling
No. Your purple Digimon has already been deleted when [ChaosGallantmon] enters play, so it doesn't activate.
Can I activate this card's effect if my opponent doesn't have both an unsuspended level 4 and level 5 Digimon in play?
Show ruling
Yes. As long as your opponent has either an unsuspended level 4 or level 5 in Digimon in play, you can activate this card's effect.
After using this card, can I reduce the digivolution cost of my level 6 Digimon digivolving to level 7 when an effect to digivolve one of my Digimon is activated?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Does this card's effect delete all of my Digimon and Tamers, too?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
What does "without battling" in this card's [Security] effect mean?
Show ruling

This card is flipped over during a security check. If the attacking Digimon has extra security checks remaining from <Security Attack +>, what happens?
Show ruling
After playing this Digimon, the remaining checks are performed.
Can this card's [When Digivolving] effect be used to delete a Digimon that digivolved from a Tamer?
Show ruling
No, it can't.
I attack my opponent using a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards. If they block it with one of their Digimon, does this Digimon's effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes. Even if the Digimon is blocked, if you declared an attack against your opponent, the effect activates.
I activate an effect that reads "Return 1 of your opponent's Digimon to their hand. Trash all of the digivolution cards of that Digimon" to return an opponent's Digimon to their hand. When your opponent's digivolution cards are trashed as a result, can you activate this card's inherited effect?
Show ruling
No, you can’t. Trash all of the digivolution cards of those Digimon"" is an explanation of what happens to the digivolution cards of the Digimon when it returns to their hand. It doesn't count as trashing digivolution for the purposes of this card's effect.
I attack my opponent using a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards. If they block it with one of their Digimon, does this card's effect activate?
Show ruling

Show ruling
Yes. The effects on both Digimon activate, so you gain 2 memory.
I play a Tamer with [Tai Kamiya] in its name from my security using its security effect. If this Digimon’s effect causes the memory gauge to move to 1 or greater on my side, does it immediately become my turn?
Show ruling
No. The turn doesn’t switch over until the attack completely finishes resolving.
I make a normal, non-<Blitz> attack with this Digimon. Can I use this card’s inherited effect to draw a card with <Draw 1>?
Show ruling
Yes. As long as a Digimon with <Blitz> is in this card’s digivolution cards, <Draw 1> will activate even if you make a normal, non-<Blitz> attack.
This card’s effect reveals 2 copies of the same card with [Huckmon], [Jesmon], or [Sistermon] in their names from the top of my deck. Can I add both copies to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If I have 2 Digimon with [Sistermon] in their names in play, can I use this card’s effect to delete 2 of my opponent’s Digimon with 5000 DP or less?
Show ruling
No. Even if you have multiple Digimon with [Sistermon] in their names in play, you can only use this Digimon’s effect to delete 1 of your opponent’s Digimon.
Can this Digimon digivolve into a Digimon with “Black/Level 5” digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
Yes. During your turn, this Digimon is treated as both a red and black Digimon, so it can digivolve into a Digimon with black digivolution requirements.
This card is in my breeding area. Can I digivolve it into a Digimon that requires a black Digimon?

If I use this card’s [When Attacking] effect to delete 1 of my opponent’s Digimon with 13000 DP or less, can I use this card’s [Your Turn] effect to trash the top card of my opponent’s security stack?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
I have 2 copies of this Digimon in my battle area. If I play a Tamer with [Matt Ishida] in its name, can I activate the effects on both Digimon to gain a total of 2 memory?
Show ruling

Does this card’s inherited effect activate when my opponent has no Digimon in play in their battle area?

Show ruling
If you attack with a Digimon, your opponent's Digimon can’t change the target of attack by blocking.
I have 2 Digimon with this card in their digivolution cards in my battle area, and a card is removed from my security stack. Do the inherited effects on both Digimon activate, activating <Draw 1> twice and drawing me 2 cards?
Show ruling
Yes. Both effects activate, so you can draw a total of 2 cards.
When I play this card, does its [On Play] effect force me to trash cards from my security stack until there are 3 cards left?

How does this card’s [On Play] effect work if I have 3 or fewer cards in my security stack?

I have 2 or more copies of this Digimon in play. My opponent attacks with a Digimon, removing a card from my security stack. Do all of the effects on copies of this Digimon activate simultaneously, activating <Recovery +1 (Deck)> for each one?
Show ruling
Fundamentally, this is possible. However, the effects don’t activate simultaneously, but one at a time in order. Once <Recovery> results in you having 4 cards in your security stack, any remaining copies of the effect don't activate. Any [BT6-044 Dynasmon] whose effects don’t activate can still be activated later in the turn.
An opponent’s Digimon performs a security check, flipping over a card with a [Security] effect. Which activates first: This card’s [All Turns] effect, or the [Security] effect?
Show ruling

Show ruling
Yes, it can.

Show ruling
Yes, you do. Even if you digivolve using a tamer card, make sure to draw 1 card as the digivolution bonus.

If I have 4 or fewer cards in my deck, does this Digimon’s [When Digivolving] effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does. Reveal as many cards from your deck as you can, then perform the rest of the effect as normal.
What does “Delete all of your opponent's Digimon with the lowest play cost” mean, exactly?
Show ruling
The effect deletes your opponent’s Digimon with the lowest play cost. If multiple Digimon are tied for lowest, all of them are deleted.

Show ruling
No. You must trash a card in your hand in order to activate it.
Can I use this card’s [On Play] effect to place a [Ginkakumon Promote] from my trash in this card’s digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No. This card’s [On Play] effect can only be used to place cards whose names match either [Kinkakumon] or [Ginkakumon] exactly, therefore you can't place [Ginkakumon Promote] in digivolution cards.
If I have both [Kinkakumon] and [Ginkakumon] in my trash, does this card’s [On Play] effect force me to place both cards in this card’s digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No, "You may place..." means that you can choose if you want to place them as digivolution cards or not. However, if you choose to place, you must place as many digivolution cards as possible. So, if you have both [Kinkakumon] and [Ginkakumon], you can't choose to place only one of them.
This card is in my breeding area. Can I digivolve it into a Digimon that requires a black Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. Effects don't activate from breeding areas, so the card isn't treated as a black card. You can't digivolve it into a Digimon that requires a black Digimon.

I have 9 cards in my trash when this Digimon is deleted. If this results in my having 10 cards in my trash, does this card’s [On Deletion] effect activate?

If I don’t play a Tamer using this card’s [On Play] effect, does that prevent my opponent from playing a Tamer card, as well?

Can I use this card’s [Main] effect on cards with [Agumon] in their name? (For example, [Agumon Expert], [ToyAgumon], etc.)
Show ruling
No, this card’s [Main] effect only affects cards whose names are [Agumon].
I activated this card’s [Main] effect to digivolve into [Agumon - Bond of Bravery]. I had 1 or more cards in my security stack at the time of activation, but another effect causes my security stack to become empty later that same turn. Do I get to keep [Agumon - Bond of Bravery] in play at the end of the turn?
Show ruling
No. If you had 1 or more cards in your security stack at the time the effect finished activating, [Agumon - Bond of Bravery] will be deleted at the end of the turn, regardless of how many cards are in your security stack at that time.
I have 2 copies of this card in play. I use the first copy’s [Main] effect to digivolve a Digimon into an [Agumon - Bond of Bravery] while there are 1 or more cards in my security stack. I use the second copy’s [Main] effect to digivolve a different Digimon into [Agumon - Bond of Bravery] while my security stack is empty. What happens to each [Agumon - Bond of Bravery] at the end of the turn?
Show ruling
The first copy’s effect was used to digivolve into [Agumon - Bond of Bravery] while your security stack had 1 or more cards in it, so [Agumon - Bond of Bravery] will be deleted at the end of the turn. The second copy’s effect was used to digivolve into [Agumon - Bond of Bravery] while your security stack was empty, so [Agumon - Bond of Bravery] stays in play at the end of the turn.

Do I get to keep [Gabumon - Bond of Friendship] in play at the end of the turn?
Show ruling
No. If you had 1 or more cards in your security stack at the time the effect finished activating, [Gabumon - Bond of Friendship] will be deleted at the end of the turn, regardless of how many cards are in your security stack at that time.
"I have 2 copies of this card in play. I use the first copy’s [Main] effect to digivolve a Digimon into a [Gabumon - Bond of Friendship] while there are 1 or more cards in my security stack. I use the second copy’s [Main] effect to digivolve a different Digimon into [Gabumon - Bond of Friendship] while my security stack is empty. What happens to each [Gabumon - Bond of Friendship] at the end of the turn?"

Show ruling
No. This card’s effect is already activated, so the affected Digimon can’t attack or block until the effect ends.
I use this card’s effect to trash 2 digivolution cards from the bottom of 1 of my opponent’s Digimon. For the part of this card’s effect that reads “1 of your opponent's Digimon with no digivolution cards can't attack or block until the end of your opponent's next turn,” can I choose a different Digimon with no digivolution cards other than the one I trashed digivolution cards from using the first part of this card’s effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I use this card if I have 0 cards left in my security stack?
Show ruling

When using this card’s effect to place a card on top of my security stack, do I need to show it to my opponent?
Show ruling

I use this card while I have 1 [ST1-12 Tai Kamiya] in play, and play a [BT6-085 Eosmon] from my hand. [ST1-12 Tai Kamiya]’s effect gives [BT6-085 Eosmon] +1000 DP, bringing it up to a total of 7000 DP. Can I delete 1 of my opponent’s Digimon with 7000 DP or less?
Show ruling

Does this card’s [Security] effect activate even if it loses the battle against the attacking Digimon?
Show ruling

My opponent uses this card’s [Security] effect to prevent one of my Digimon with <Piercing> from attacking players. If that Digimon attacks and deletes an opponent's Digimon and survives, do I still get to perform security checks with <Piercing>?
Show ruling
Yes, you do.
I have 11 or fewer Digimon in play, and my opponent activates this card’s [Security] effect, preventing all of my Digimon from attacking players for the turn. If I later play a Digimon with <Rush> during that same turn, can that Digimon attack players?

Can I use option cards that can change their cost to 7 on certain conditions such as [BT7-100 Qualialise Blast] or [BT11-108 DG Dimension] with this card’s [On Play] effect?
Show ruling
No, you can’t. Since those options are cards that have effects that “reduce the cost by…” or “its memory cost is equal to…” when they would be used, their cost has not actually changed when activating this card’s [On Play] effect, so they can’t be used with this card’s effect.However, since [BT2-099 Glorious Burst] always has the effect of reducing its use cost when used from the hand, if you have 2 yellow Tamers, it can be used with this card’s effect as its use cost will be 7.
Do Tamers of any color make the effect of this card active?
Show ruling
Yes. No color is specified, so you can activate the effect of any Tamer, regardless of color.
Which activates first: This card’s inherited effect, or the effect that activates when you trash this card with <Digi-Burst>?
Show ruling
The <Digi-Burst> effect activates first.
When one of my effects digivolves a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards, does this card’s inherited effect activate?
Show ruling
No. When a Digimon digivolves, even if it happens due to an effect, it is not counted as an effect placing digivolution cards under that Digimon.
If one of my effects places 2 or more cards at the same time under a Digimon that has this card's inherited effect, can I draw that many cards?
Show ruling
No. Even if multiple cards are added to the Digimon’s digivolution cards, if they were added by a single effect, you only draw 1 card.
If there are Tamer cards among the cards revealed with this card's inherited effect, do I have to trash 1 of them?
Show ruling

Instead of a Tamer card, can I digivolve this card onto a level 3 Digimon that meets the digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
After a Tamer card ends up in this Digimon's digivolution cards, is that card affected by effects that trash digivolution cards?
Show ruling
Yes, it is.However, if the effect specifies that it trashes Digimon cards, Digi-Egg cards, or any other type of card that isn't a Tamer card, it can't affect Tamer cards.
If I digivolve this card on top of a Tamer card, do I still get the digivolution bonus?
Show ruling
Yes, you do. Even if you digivolve using a Tamer card, make sure to draw 1 card as the digivolution bonus.
Can I attack the turn I digivolve this card on top of a Tamer card?
Show ruling
Yes. Digivolution doesn't count as “playing” a card, so you can attack that turn.
I play a Tamer card, then digivolve it into this Digimon. Can I then attack with that Digimon during that same turn?

Show ruling
It’s trashed.
If I play this card while I have no Tamers in play, and play a red Tamer from my hand with this card's effect, do I then also gain 2 memory from this effect since I now have a Tamer in play?
Show ruling
No. If you play this card with no Tamers in play, you only get to play 1 red Tamer card from your hand.
If I delete 2 or more of my opponent’s Digimon at the same time, does this card’s inherited effect allow me to gain 1 memory for each Digimon deleted?
Show ruling
No. Even if multiple Digimon are deleted, if they were deleted by a single effect, you only gain 1 memory.
When a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards performs a security check, if the checked card is a Digimon card or a Tamer card, does its [Security] effect activate?
Show ruling

Is this card’s play cost reduced by 1 for each Option card in ONLY my trash or my opponent’s trash?
Show ruling
No, its play cost is reduced by the total number of Option cards in both you and your opponent's trashes.
I use this card’s [On Play] effect to return cards from both players’ trashes to the bottom of their owners’ decks. Who decides which order the cards are placed in?
Show ruling
The player who activated the effect decides the order in which their cards and their opponent's cards are returned to the bottom of each player's decks.
I attack with this Digimon, and it is blocked by an opponent's Digimon at the blocker timing. At what timing does this card's [Your Turn] effect activate?

Can I place 1 red or black level 5 card with [Cyborg] in its traits from my hand or trash on top of this Digimon's digivolution cards with this card's [When Digivolving] effect even if my opponent has no Digimon with 6000 DP or less in play?
Show ruling

Show ruling
Yes, you can.
A Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards is targeted with <De-Digivolve> by my opponent, resulting in this card now being the Digimon’s top card. Do I draw 2 cards with this card's [On Play] effect?
Show ruling
No. Having this card become a Digimon as a result of <De-Digivolve> doesn’t count as playing it, so you can’t draw any cards.

Does this card’s inherited effect activate when my opponent activates <Digi-Burst>?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
If both blue and green cards are in this card’s digivolution cards, do I activate both parts of this card’s [When Attacking] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you do.
If a single blue and green multicolor card is in this card’s digivolution cards, do I activate both parts of this card’s [When Attacking] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you do.
Can I use this card’s effect to add a two-color Option card to my hand if one of its colors is yellow?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Can this card’s effect add a card with a "this Digimon is also treated as yellow" effect to my hand?
Show ruling
No. Effects don't activate for cards revealed from your deck.
If the Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards is itself blue, does this card’s inherited effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
After I use this card’s [When Digivolving] effect to gain +2000 DP for each card with [Armor Form] in its traits in my trash, I use <Armor Purge> to trash this card. What happens to the DP boost?
Show ruling
The effect has already been activated, so the DP boost persists for the turn.
If I have 2 Tamers in play, can this card's [When Digivolving] effect give up to 6 of my opponent's Digimon -5000 DP?
Show ruling
No. No matter how many Tamers you have in play, the effect gives -5000 DP to up to 3 of your opponent's Digimon.
This card's effect trashes a red card in my hand. Does this make this Digimon a red/yellow 2-color Digimon, allowing me to <Draw 2>?
Show ruling
Yes, the Digimon is now treated as having two colors, so you <Draw 2>.
This card's effect trashes a blue/green multicolor card in my hand. Does this make this Digimon a yellow/blue/green 3-color Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, the Digimon is now treated as having three colors.
If I have multiple Tamers in play, can this card's [On Play][When Digivolving] effect give <Security Attack -2> to a different one of my opponent’s Digimon for each Tamer I have in play?
Show ruling
Yes. The effect activates for each Tamer you have in play, and you can choose a different target for each activation.
When I activate this card’s [On Play][When Digivolving] effect multiple times, is each activation treated as its own timing?
Show ruling
No, it’s treated as a single timing.
I digivolve one of my suspended Digimon into this Digimon. Does this card's [Your Turn] effect let me unsuspend this Digimon itself?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't.This Digimon's [Your Turn] effect only triggers when your other Digimon digivolve.
If I choose an opponent's Digimon for this card's [When Digivolving] effect, and that Digimon loses <Blocker> due to digivolving, <De-Digivolve>, or some other reason, can that Digimon now attack and block again?
Show ruling
No. Once a Digimon with <Blocker> is targeted by this card's [When Digivolving] effect, it becomes unable to attack or block until the end of your opponent’s next turn, even if it loses <Blocker>.
With this card's [When Digivolving] effect, can I suspend this Digimon itself in order to suspend 1 of my opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I activate this card's [Your Turn] effect before my opponent's Digimon unsuspends in the unsuspend phase due to <Reboot>?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. Digimon with <Reboot> unsuspend at the same time as the current player's turn. This effect activates "if this Digimon is unsuspended", so it activates immediately after.
My opponent has this Digimon in play. During my turn, I use an Option card like [BT1-109 Smashed Potatoes] or [EX1-071 Win Rate: 60%!] which has an effect that activates “the next time one of your Digimon digivolves”. After that, all of my opponent’s Digimon become suspended. If I then digivolve one of my Digimon, are the effects from the Option cards I used earlier negated?
Show ruling
No. You already used the Option cards and activated their effects, so this card’s [Opponent’s Turn] effect can’t negate them.
My opponent has this Digimon in play. If I have an Option card with <Delay> that I used from my hand earlier, can I activate its <Delay> effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. Activating <Delay> on Option cards that are already in your battle area doesn't count as using an Option card.
If the Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards is itself red, does this card’s inherited effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
Can this card's effect add a total of up to 4 Digimon cards with [Mamemon] in their names from both my hand and/or trash to the top of my deck?
Show ruling
Yes, you can add up to 4 cards in any combination from your hand and/or trash.
Can this card's [Your Turn] effect digivolve it into any Digimon card regardless of digivolution requirements, so long as it has [X Antibody] in its traits?
Show ruling
No. Digivolution requirements cannot be ignored unless an effect explicitly instructs you to ignore them.
How does this card’s [When Digivolving] effect work if my opponent has no Digimon in play?
Show ruling
You can reveal 3 cards, then trash all of them. Note that the effect reads, “you may,” so you can choose whether or not to activate the effect when digivolving, regardless of whether or not your opponent has any Digimon in play. If you choose not to activate it, you don't reveal or trash any cards.
What does “memory cost of 10 or less” refer to?
Show ruling
Play cost.
If this card has both red and black digivolution cards, can this card's [When Digivolving] effect delete both Digimon and Tamers?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
If this card has both red and black digivolution cards, can this card's [When Digivolving] effect delete both 6 play cost worth of my opponent’s Digimon, and 6 play cost worth of my opponent’s Tamers?
Show ruling
No. The total play costs of the chosen Digimon and Tamers must add up to 6 or less.
If a single red and black multicolor card is in this card’s digivolution cards, can I activate both parts of this card’s [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If I reveal a non-purple Digimon card with this card’s [On Play] effect, can I trash it?
Show ruling
No. This card’s effect can only trash purple Digimon cards.
Is this card’s effect triggered by the activation of an effect that reads, “Reveal the top X cards of your deck... Trash the remaining cards.”?
Show ruling
No, cards revealed from the top of your deck aren't considered to be “trashed from your deck,” so this card’s effect doesn’t trigger.
Is this card’s inherited effect triggered by the activation of an effect that reads, “Reveal the top X cards of your deck... Trash the remaining cards.”?
Show ruling
No, cards revealed from the top of your deck aren't considered to be “trashed from your deck,” so this card’s effect doesn’t trigger.
If both purple and yellow cards are in this card’s digivolution cards, can I activate both parts of this card’s [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If a single purple and yellow multicolor card is in this card’s digivolution cards, can I activate both parts of this card’s [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
How does this card’s [Your Turn] effect work, exactly?
Show ruling
The effect allows this card to be treated as both white (its original color), and as the colors of its digivolution cards. For example, if a red card and green card are in this card’s digivolution cards, this card is treated as a 3-color white/red/green card.
This card has an effect that reads, “When one of your Digimon with 2 or more colors attacks”―does this include the colors of the attacking Digimon’s digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No. The effect can only be activated if the Digimon itself has 2 or more colors.
Is this card’s [Opponent’s Turn] effect triggered when I block an opponent’s attack with one of my blue Digimon?
Show ruling
No. The effect only triggers when your opponent chooses one of your blue Digimon as a target of attack.
Can I activate both parts of this card’s [Start of Your Main Phase] effect if I have both a blue Digimon and green Digimon in play?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If I have a single blue and green multicolor Digimon in play, can I activate both parts of this card’s [Start of Your Main Phase] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
This card has an effect that reads, “When one of your Digimon with 2 or more colors attacks”―does this include the colors of the attacking Digimon’s digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No. The effect can only be activated if the Digimon itself has 2 or more colors.
Does this card’s [Opponent’s Turn] effect activate when an effect from a card like [BT1-089 Mimi Tachikawa] moves a level 3 Digimon from your opponent's breeding area to their battle area outside of their breeding phase?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
During the breeding phase, I move a Digimon from the breeding area to the battle area and due to this card's [Opponent's Turn] effect of my opponent, and the memory gauge moves to 1 or more on my opponent's side. In this case, do I have a main phase?
Show ruling
No, the main phase doesn't take place and the turn ends.
Does this card’s “If you have a Digimon in play with...2 or more colors in one of its digivolution cards” count a Digimon that has both a red card and a blue card in its digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't. The effect is looking for a Digimon with a digivolution card that has 2 or more colors.
Does this card’s “If you have a Digimon in play with...2 or more colors in one of its digivolution cards” count a Digimon with a card like [BT3-040 Shakkoumon]’s “This Digimon is also treated as blue” in its digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't. Effects that grant additional colors don't do anything as digivolution cards, so the card is only treated as a single color.
If my opponent has 7 or more Digimon in play, does this card’s effect get reduced to negative 1, effectively gaining me a memory for using it?
Show ruling
No. It just reduces the cost of the card to 0. Note that in general, costs can’t be reduced to less than 0.
I use this card, then attack my opponent. During the security check, I flip over a Digimon card with the effect, “[Security] At the end of the battle, play this card without paying its memory cost.” What happens to this Security Digimon?
Show ruling
After the battle between the attacking Digimon and Security Digimon, the effect prevents the Digimon from being played, so it's placed in the trash.
My opponent used this card on my [BT7-063 DarkKnightmon]. [DarkKnightmon]'s [All Turns] effect is a "when this Digimon would be deleted" effect that interrupts deletion when it activates, but can I use this card's "your opponent can't play Digimon by effects until the end of their turn" effect to prevent [SkullKnightmon] and [DeadlyAxemon] from being played from [DarkKnightmon]'s digivolution cards?
Show ruling
Yes, they can't be played. This card's [Main] effect was changed to "Your opponent can't play Digimon by effects until the end of their turn. Delete all of your opponent's Digimon with 6000 DP or less." Therefore, first the effect that prevents playing Digimon is applied, then Digimon with 6000 DP or less are deleted. Please see the notices regarding changes to the rules/rulings on the official website.
I use this card, but my opponent has no Digimon without digivolution cards in play, so I can't specify any Digimon that can't attack or block. If my opponent later plays a Digimon without digivolution cards to their battle area, can I make that Digimon unable to attack or block?
Show ruling
No, you can't. You can only specify Digimon that can't attack or block at the time this card’s effect is activated.
Does this card’s “If you have a Digimon in play with...2 or more colors in one of its digivolution cards” count a Digimon that has both a red card and a blue card in its digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't. The effect is looking for a Digimon with a digivolution card that has 2 or more colors.
Does this card’s “If you have a Digimon in play with...2 or more colors in one of its digivolution cards” count a Digimon with a card like [BT3-040 Shakkoumon]’s “This Digimon is also treated as blue” in its digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't. Effects that grant additional colors don't do anything as digivolution cards, so the card is only treated as a single color.
If I have 1 card with [Armor Form] in its traits in my trash, can I use this card's effect to give an opponent's Digimon -4000 DP, and then give it an additional -1000 DP with the second part of the effect?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
Can I use this card's effect to prevent 1 of my opponent's suspended Digimon or Tamers from unsuspending until the end of their turn?
Show ruling
No. You can choose 1 of your opponent’s suspended Digimon or Tamers with this card's effect, but if you didn't use this effect to suspend that card, the “can't unsuspend until the end of their next turn” part of the effect doesn't apply.
What does “Choose any number of your opponent's Digimon whose play costs add up to 15 or less” mean, exactly?
Show ruling
You can choose any number of your opponent's Digimon, as long as the play costs of the chosen Digimon add up to 15 or less. For example, you could choose 1 Digimon with a play cost of 3 and 1 Digimon with a play cost of 12, or 1 Digimon with a play cost of 2 and 2 Digimon with play costs of 6.
Can I choose fewer cards than possible, even if the play costs of the chosen cards add up to less than 15?
Show ruling
Yes. As long as the total play costs of the chosen cards is less than 15, you can choose as many or as few cards as you like. However, note that you must choose a minimum of 1 Digimon with a play cost of 15 or less.
My opponent uses effects to reduce play costs or play Digimon for free. Are Digimon played with these effects counted as having reduced play costs or play costs of 0 by this effect?
Show ruling
No. Regardless of how a Digimon was played, only the play cost printed on the card is counted for this card’s effect.
Can I choose fewer cards than possible, even if the play costs of the chosen cards add up to less than 15?
Show ruling
Yes. As long as the total play costs of the chosen cards is less than 15, you can choose as many or as few cards as you like.
This card's effect reads, "Digimon with a memory cost of 6 or less," but which cost is this referring to?
Show ruling
The Digimon's play cost.
If my opponent has no Digimon in play or no Digimon with a level less than or equal to one of my Digimon, can I still use this card’s effect to delete 1 of my Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
I use this card to trash the top card of 1 of my Digimon with [Armor Form] in its traits. Can I then digivolve one of my other Digimon into a Digimon card in my hand with [Armor Form] in its traits?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If you do, only the Digimon you chose to digivolve will unsuspend.
I use this card to trash the top card of 1 of my Digimon with [Armor Form] in its traits. Can I then choose NOT to digivolve one of my other Digimon into a Digimon card in my hand with [Armor Form] in its traits?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If you choose this option, however, no Digimon will be unsuspended with this effect.
When using this card’s effect to digivolve into a Digimon in my hand with [Armor Form] in its traits, can I ignore its digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
No. Digivolution requirements cannot be ignored unless an effect explicitly instructs you to ignore them.
If this card's [When Digivolving] effect trashes 8 cards from the top of my deck, can I play 2 level 5 or lower purple Digimon cards from my trash without paying their memory costs?
Show ruling
No. Even if you trash more than 4 cards with the effect, you can only play 1 level 5 or lower purple Digimon card.
If I have 20 cards in my trash, does this card's [When Attacking] effect trash the top 6 cards of my opponent’s deck and give this Digimon +6000 DP?
Show ruling
Yes. The effect reads, “For every 10 cards in your trash,” so if you have 20 cards in your trash, you would trash the top 6 cards of your opponent’s deck and get +6000 DP.
Does this card's inherited effect activate when an effect returns one of my Digimon to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
I activate an effect that reads “<Draw 1>. Then, trash 1 card in your hand.” Even though I trashed a card in my hand, does the <Draw 1> allow me to activate this card’s inherited effect?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
I activate an effect that reads, “Add 1 card from your security to your hand. Then, <Recovery +1 (Deck)>.” Even though I lost a card from my security, does the <Recovery +1 (Deck)> allow me to activate this card’s inherited effect?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
This card’s effect reveals 3 cards. If the cards revealed only include either a card with [Greymon] or [Omnimon] in its name or [X Antibody], do I still add a card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, as long as either a card with [Greymon] or [Omnimon] in its name or [X Antibody] is among the cards revealed, you add it to your hand.
This card’s effect reveals 3 cards. If both a card with [Greymon] or [Omnimon] in its name and [X Antibody] are among the cards revealed, can I choose to add only one of them to my hand, and place the remaining card at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. This card's effect reads “Add 1 card [...] among them to your hand,” so you must add as many cards to your hand as possible. In this case, you must add both 1 card with [Greymon] or [Omnimon] in its name, and 1 [X Antibody] to your hand.
This card’s inherited effect reads, “you may trash 2 cards of the same level”. Does this mean I have to trash 2 cards that are the same level as this card?
Show ruling
No. This effect requires you to trash two cards in this Digimon’s digivolution cards that are the same level as each other. The level of this Digimon doesn't matter. For example, if there are two level 5 cards in this Digimon’s digivolution cards, you can trash both to prevent this Digimon from being deleted or returned to your hand or deck.
This card’s inherited effect reads, “you may trash 2 cards of the same level”. If this card is in this Digimon’s digivolution cards, can I include it as one of the trashed cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
An opponent’s effect reduced this Digimon’s DP to zero, deleting it. Does this card’s inherited effect activate?
Show ruling
No. When a Digimon is deleted after its DP is reduced to zero, it's considered to be deleted by the game rules, not an effect. This card’s effect only activates when the card is deleted by an effect, so it won't activate in this instance.
This card’s effect reads, “While this Digimon has [OmniShoutmon] or [X Antibody] in its digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [OmniShoutmon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.
This card’s effect reads, “if [WarGrowlmon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [WarGrowlmon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.
This card’s effect reads, “if this Digimon has [MetalGreymon] or [X Antibody] in its digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [MetalGreymon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.
After having digivolved into this card, I place an [X Antibody] card in this card’s digivolution cards later that turn. Does this Digimon get +3000 DP?
Show ruling
No. If a [MetalGreymon] or [X Antibody] isn’t in this Digimon’s digivolution cards at the time its [When Digivolving] effect activates, it doesn’t gain +3000 DP from its effect.
This card’s effect reads, “If [WarGreymon] or [X Antibody] is in this Digimon’s digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [WarGreymon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.
I attack my opponent and perform a security check. Does this card’s [All Turns] effect cause me to gain 1 memory first, before the [Security] effect of the card I flipped over activates, or before the battle with my opponent's Security Digimon occurs?
Show ruling
Performing the check causes a card to be removed from your opponent’s security stack, causing this card’s [All Turns] effect to trigger. If you flip over a card with a [Security] effect, however, the [Security] effect will trigger afterwards, which means it will activate first. After that, if there are no other triggered effects, you'll gain 1 memory before the battle with the Security Digimon.
This card’s [When Digivolving] effect reads, “Delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with the lowest DP.” What situations does “If no Digimon is deleted by this effect” refer to, specifically?
Show ruling
If no Digimon was deleted by this effect” refers to a state in which, when resolving this Digimon’s [When Digivolving] effect, your opponent doesn't have a Digimon in play, or you try to delete an opponent's Digimon that can't be deleted with the effect. Essentially, if you didn't delete a Digimon with the effect “Delete 1 of your opponent’s Digimon with the lowest DP,” follow the instructions listed after “If no Digimon was deleted by this effect...
My opponent has a Digimon in play. Can I choose not to delete my opponent’s Digimon with this card’s [When Digivolving] effect in order to unsuspend this Digimon?
Show ruling
No. This effect reads, “Delete,” not “You may delete,” so if there’s a valid target in play, you must choose it with the effect. You can't choose to NOT activate the effect.
My opponent has a Digimon with an effect that reads, “This Digimon can't be deleted by your opponent’s effects,” and another Digimon with no effect (both Digimon have the same DP). Can I intentionally choose the Digimon with the effect preventing deletion for this card’s [When Digivolving] effect, in order to unsuspend this Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes. When there are multiple Digimon tied for lowest DP, you can choose any of them. This means you can choose the Digimon with the effect preventing deletion to get the “if no Digimon was deleted by this effect” part of the effect.
This card’s effect reads, “if [Gallantmon] or [X Antibody] is in this Digimon’s digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [Gallantmon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.
Does this card’s [When Digivolving] effect gain me 1 memory per each of my opponent's Tamers?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
If my opponent has multiple Tamers but only 1 Digimon in play, do I gain 1 memory for each of my opponent's Tamers even though only 1 Digimon will be suspended?
Show ruling
Yes. You’ll gain 1 memory for each of your opponent’s Tamers.
If my opponent’s Digimon with 6000 DP or less becomes suspended, can I choose NOT to delete it with this card’s [All Turns] effect?
Show ruling
Yes. The effect reads, “You may delete that Digimon,” so you can choose not to. If you choose not to, the effect’s [Once Per Turn] requirement won’t be used up, either.
I attack with a Digimon, and my opponent activates <Blocker> to suspend their Digimon with 6000 DP or less. I then activate this card’s [All Turns] effect to delete that Digimon. What happens to the attack?
Show ruling
When your opponent activates <Blocker>, the target of the attack is switched to the Digimon that activated <Blocker>, and that Digimon is then deleted by this Digimon's [All Turns] effect. Since the Digimon that activated <Blocker> was deleted, no battle occurs, and the attack ends.
I used an effect like [BT6-103 Blasted Disaster] that suspends multiple DIgimon to simultaneously suspend 2 of my opponent's Digimon with 6000 DP or less. In such cases, can I use this card's [All Turns] effect to delete those 2 Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes you can, as long as they are simultaneously suspended.
This card's effect reveals 3 cards. If the cards revealed only include either a card with [Garurumon] or [Omnimon] in its name or [X Antibody], can I still add a card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, as long as either a card with [Garurumon] or [Omnimon] in its name or [X Antibody] is among the cards revealed, you can add it to your hand.
This card’s effect reveals 3 cards. If both a card with [Garurumon] or [Omnimon] in its name and [X Antibody] are among the cards revealed, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining card at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. This card's effect reads “Add 1 card [...] among them to your hand,” so you must add as many cards to your hand as possible. In this case, you must add both 1 card with [Garurumon] or [Omnimon] in its name, and 1 [X Antibody] to your hand.
Does this card's inherited effect activate when an effect returns one of my Digimon to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
I activate an effect that reads “<Draw 1>. Then, trash 1 card in your hand.” Even though I trashed a card in my hand, does the <Draw 1> allow me to activate this card’s inherited effect?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
This card’s inherited effect reads, “you may trash 2 cards of the same level”. Does this mean I have to trash 2 cards that are the same level as this card?
Show ruling
No. This effect requires you to trash two cards in this Digimon’s digivolution cards that are the same level as each other. The level of this Digimon doesn't matter. For example, if there are two level 5 cards in this card’s digivolution cards, you can trash both to prevent this Digimon from being deleted.
This card’s inherited effect reads, “you may trash 2 cards of the same level”. If this card is in this Digimon’s digivolution cards, can I include it as one of the trashed cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
This card’s effect reads, “if [WereGarurumon] or [X Antibody] is in this Digimon’s digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [WereGarurumon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.
What timing can I activate this card’s [Hand][Main] effect at?
Show ruling
When this card is in your hand, you can activate it by revealing it from your hand during your main phase.
This card’s effect reads, “if [MetalGarurumon] or [X Antibody] is in its digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [MetalGarurumon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.
Does this card’s [Your Turn] effect activate when this card becomes unsuspended during my unsuspend phase?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
Does this card's effect also prevent me from using Option card effects to play Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes. Option card effects are effects just like any other, so you can't use them to play Digimon.
If this Digimon is in play, can I activate effects that reduce play costs?
Show ruling
Yes. Effects that only reduce play costs can still be activated. Effects that reduce play costs AND play Digimon can’t be activated.
I activate this card's effect to look at the top card of my security stack, and choose not to add it to my hand. What happens to that card?
Show ruling
Place it on top of your security stack face down.
This card’s effect reads, “if [Angewomon] or [X Antibody] is in this Digimon’s digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [Angewomon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.
This card’s effect reads, “if [RizeGreymon] or [X Antibody] is in this Digimon’s digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [RizeGreymon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.
This card’s effect reads, “If [Magnadramon] or [X Antibody] is in this Digimon’s digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [Magnadramon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.

Show ruling

Show ruling
Yes, as long as either a card with [Insectoid] or [Machine] in its traits or [X Antibody] is among the cards revealed, you can add it to your hand.
This card’s effect reveals 3 cards. If both a card with [Insectoid] or [Machine] in its traits and [X Antibody] are among the cards revealed, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining card at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. This card's effect reads “Add 1 card [...] among them to your hand,” so you must add as many cards to your hand as possible. In this case, you must add both 1 card with [Insectoid] or [Machine] in its traits, and 1 [X Antibody] to your hand.
If this Digimon is in play, can I move one of my level 3 or higher Digimon from my breeding area to my battle area with [BT1-089 Mimi Tachikawa]'s effect?

Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name. You can only play a card whose name is specifically [Leomon].

This card’s effect reads, “If [GranKuwagamon] or [X Antibody] is in this Digimon’s digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?
Show ruling
No. This effect specifies a card name, so you must have a card whose name is either [GranKuwagamon] or [X Antibody] in this Digimon’s digivolution cards. Having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits doesn't count.
Can I switch the target of attack to an opponent's Digimon with a "this Digimon can't be attacked" effect when I activate this card's [When Digivolving] effect during an attack?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.A "this Digimon can't be attacked" effect prevents a Digimon from being chosen as the target upon an attack declaration, therefore an attack can be switched to a Digimon with such an effect by using an effect that switches the target after the attack declaration.
This card’s effect reads, “If a card with [Leomon] in its name or [X Antibody] is in this Digimon’s digivolution cards”. Does having a card with [X Antibody] in its traits count?

Show ruling

Can this card’s [When Digivolving] effect unsuspend both 1 of my Digimon or Tamers and 1 of my opponent’s Digimon or Tamers?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
Does this card’s [When Digivolving] effect let me unsuspend up to 2 Digimon or Tamers in any combination, or does it have to specifically be either 2 Digimon or 2 Tamers only?
Show ruling
The effect lets you unsuspend up to 2 in any combination. You can unsuspend 1 of each, or 2 Digimon, or 2 Tamers.
When determining the number of cards to trash from my opponent’s security stack with this card's [End of Your Turn] effect, do I only trash a card for each pair of unsuspended Digimon and Tamer cards my opponent has in play?
Show ruling
No. Add up the total number of unsuspended Digimon and Tamer cards your opponent has in play, then divide by two to determine how many security cards to trash. For example, if your opponent has 3 unsuspended Digimon and 1 unsuspended Tamer, this adds up to 4 cards total, which means you get to trash 2 of your opponent’s security cards.
This card’s [On Play] effect reveals cards from the top of my deck. Can I only trash a card that has [Undead] or [Dark Animal] in its traits?
Show ruling
Yes. Both the card you add to hand and the card you trash must have [Undead] or [Dark Animal] in their traits.
If I have cards in my trash with [Undead] or [Dark Animal] in their traits, does this card's inherited effect let me digivolve any card into any of them, regardless of digivolution requirements?

Show ruling
Yes, it does.
If this card’s [On Play][When Digivolving] effect trashes a card that’s both purple and yellow, can I both delete 1 of my opponent’s level 3 Digimon and give 1 of my opponent’s Digimon -3000 DP for the turn?
Show ruling
Yes. A 2-color card is treated as both colors, so you can activate both effects.
When this card is in the digivolution cards of a Digimon with an effect that adds colors, such as “This Digimon is also treated as red,” does this card’s inherited effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
Does this card’s [Your Turn] effect let me digivolve into a card in my trash?
Show ruling
No, this card can’t digivolve into a card from your trash on its own. When some other card’s effect digivolves this card into a card from your trash, this card’s effect will then reduce the digivolution cost.
If I have cards in my trash with [Undead] or [Dark Animal] in their traits, does this card's [End of Attack] effect let me digivolve any card into them, regardless of digivolution requirements?

This card’s effect reveals 3 cards. If the cards revealed only include either a [Tapirmon] or a 2-color black card, can I still add a card to my hand?
Show ruling

If a black Digimon with an effect such as "this Digimon is also treated as red" that treats it as a different color is among the cards revealed for this card's effect, can I add that card to my hand?
Show ruling
No. Effects don't activate for cards revealed from your deck.

Show ruling
Yes, as long as either a Digimon card with the [X Antibody] trait or an Option card with the [X Antibody] trait is among the cards revealed, you can add it to your hand.

Show ruling
No. This card's effect reads “Add 1 [...] among them to your hand,” so you must add as many cards to your hand as possible. In this situation, you must add both 1 Digimon card with the [X Antibody] trait and 1 Option card with the [X Antibody] trait to your hand.
Can this card's [Main] effect digivolve a Digimon that doesn't meet the digivolution requirements into a Digimon card with [Shoutmon] in its name in my hand?
Show ruling
No, you can’t ignore digivolution requirements when using this card's effect.
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to delete my opponent's Digimon whose total DP adds up to 11000 or less with an "add 1000 to the maximum your DP-based deletion effects can delete" effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to attack my opponent with 1 of my Digimon with [Greymon] in its name that is suspended or was played in the same turn?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This card's effect doesn't let you attack with a Digimon that's in a state where it can't attack.
If a digivolution card has the [X Antibody] trait, does it meet this card's "if you have a Digimon with [X Antibody] in its digivolution cards in play" condition?
Show ruling
No. [X Antibody] in this effect's text refers to the card name, therefore only a card with [X Antibody] as its card name will meet the condition. It doesn't refer to the [X Antibody] trait.
When I use this card's [Main] effect to attack, does the attacking Digimon's [When Attacking] effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to have one of my opponent's Digimon attack when one of my Digimon with [Greymon] in its name has a "this Digimon can also attack your opponent's unsuspended Digimon" effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This card's effect only allows you to attack a player.
If a digivolution card has the [X Antibody] trait, does it meet this card's "if you have a Digimon with [X Antibody] in its digivolution cards in play" condition?
Show ruling
No. [X Antibody] in this effect's text refers to the card name, therefore only a card with [X Antibody] as its card name will meet the condition. It doesn't refer to the [X Antibody] trait.
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to attack an opponent's Digimon with my Digimon with the [Insectoid] trait that was played that turn?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This card's effect doesn't let you attack with a Digimon that's in a state where it can't attack.

Show ruling
No, you can't.
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to attack an opponent's Digimon with a "this Digimon can't be attacked" effect?

Show ruling
Yes. The effect applies to all of your Digimon that meet the conditions, therefore this effect will also affect Digimon that later enter the battle area as long as they meet the conditions.
Does this card's "cards can't be added to security stacks by your opponent's effects" mean that effects that add cards to security stacks on "your opponent's Digimon with play costs of 7 or less" can't be activated?
Show ruling
No. Cards can't be added to security stacks by your opponent's effects regardless of the card type or level (the effects will activate, but cards still can't be added to security stacks). The "your opponent's Digimon with play costs of 7 or less" refers to the "can't attack players" effect.
What happens if my opponent activates this card's effect and I use [ST10-14 Chaos Degradation]?
Show ruling
Due to this card's effect, cards can't be placed in security stacks, therefore [ST10-14 Chaos Degradation]'s "place 1 of your opponent's Digimon face down at the top or bottom of your opponent's security stack" can't be activated, and the target Digimon will be left as-is.
While my opponent has this card's effect activated, I used [BT10-086 Omnimon (X Antibody)]'s effect to reveal all of my opponent's security cards. After choosing and trashing 1 card among them, can the rest be placed in the security stack?
Show ruling
Yes, the rest are placed in the security stack. When returning cards that were revealed from a private area such as the deck or security stack by an effect, it isn't considered adding cards to such areas, therefore this card's effect doesn't apply.
When choosing the target for "then, place 1 card with [X Antibody] in its traits from your trash under 1 of your Digimon with [X Antibody] in its traits as its bottom digivolution card" can I choose a card with the [X Antibody] trait that was revealed from my deck and trashed for this card's effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to digivolve into any Digimon card from my trash as long as it has [Dex]/[DeathX] in its name?

Can I activate an effect that reduces the digivolution cost when digivolving using this card's [Main] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, as long as the activation conditions are met.
If I use this card's [Main] effect to trash 2 cards in my hand, can I activate <De-Digivolve 1> on 2 of my opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This effect only activates <De-Digivolve> on 1 of your opponent's Digimon. For the part of the effect after "then," you can also choose a Digimon other than the target Digimon for <De-Digivolve>.
When I use this card's [Main] effect to trash 2 cards in my hand, does <De-Digivolve 1> activate twice or does <De-Digivolve 2> activate once?
Show ruling
<De-Digivolve 1> activates twice, <De-Digivolve 2> doesn't activate once. Even if a Tamer card or Option card becomes the top card after trashing the top card, <De-Digivolve> can trash a card regardless of its card category, therefore you go on to trash the 2nd card. However, if a card with an "isn't affected by effects" becomes the top card after the first <De-Digivolve 1>, it won't be affected by the second <De-Digivolve 1> and won't be trashed.
Does this card have inherited effects even though it's an Option card?
Show ruling
Yes. This card's [Main] effect can place it in a Digimon’s digivolution cards, and it has inherited effects. As with Digi-Egg cards and Digimon cards, this card's inherited effects can activate while it's placed in a Digimon’s digivolution cards.
Can this card's inherited effect digivolve a Digimon that doesn't meet the digivolution requirements into a Digimon card with [X Antibody] in its traits in my hand?
Show ruling
No, you can’t ignore digivolution requirements when using this card's effect.
Can I activate an effect that reduces the digivolution cost when digivolving using this card's inherited effect?
Show ruling
Yes, as long as the activation conditions are met.
Can this card be trashed by <Digi-Burst> effects on Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No. Trashing by <Digi-Burst> is also trashing by an effect.
What happens if this card becomes the top card after a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards is affected by <De-Digivolve>?
Show ruling
As with Digimon without DP, this card can't exist in the battle area as the top card, therefore it's trashed. This isn't considered deletion. If this card has other digivolution cards under it, they are also trashed.
What happens if a "trash the bottom 2 digivolution cards of your opponent's Digimon" effect activates on a Digimon with this card as its bottom digivolution card?
Show ruling
Effects can't trash this card, therefore only the digivolution card on top of this card is trashed.
There are 8 digivolution cards under [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper], and this card is the bottom card. Does the "you may trash 7 or more digivolution cards from the bottom of 1 of your [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper]s to set this Digimon's play cost to 0" effect activate when my [EX2-055 Reaper] is played?
Show ruling
It can activate in such cases if you declare to trash 8 cards and then trash 7 cards except for [BT9-109 X Antibody].
Does this card's "if there are 3 or more Digimon in play" refer to 3 or more total Digimon in play by both me and my opponent?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
Can I activate just the "delete 1 Digimon without [X Antibody] in its traits" effect when there are 3 or more Digimon in play?
Show ruling
No, you can't. When there are 3 or more Digimon in play, you must delete all Digimon without [X Antibody] in their traits.
If this card’s [End of Your Turn] effect gains me enough memory to bring the memory gauge to 0 or greater on my side, does it briefly become my opponent’s turn before switching back to my turn again?
Show ruling
No. In this case, your turn simply continues without switching over.
If [BT9-109 X Antibody] is in this card’s digivolution cards, can this card’s [End of Your Turn] effect return [BT9-109 X Antibody] from this card’s digivolution cards to the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
Yes. You're not trashing it, so there’s nothing preventing you from returning it to your deck.
When playing this card, do I reduce its memory cost by 3 for each pair of Digimon and Tamer cards my opponent has in play?
Show ruling
No, you reduce its memory cost by 3 based on the total number of Digimon and Tamer cards your opponent has in play. For example, if your opponent has 2 Digimon and 1 Tamer, this adds up to 3 cards total, which means you get to reduce the play cost by 9.
If a Digimon card with [Agumon] in its name and a Tamer card are among the cards revealed with this card’s inherited effect, can I add both to my hand?
Show ruling
No, you can only add one or the other.
Can I add a non-red Digimon card with [Agumon] in its name or a non-red Tamer card to my hand off this card’s inherited effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
I attack my opponent with a Digimon that has this card in its digivolution cards. If they block it with one of their Digimon, does this card's effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does. [When Attacking] effects activate before your opponent gets to activate <Blocker>.
I attack my opponent with a Digimon that has this card in its digivolution cards. If they block it with one of their Digimon, does this card's effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does. [When Attacking] effects activate before your opponent gets to activate <Blocker>.
Can I play cards that include [Tai Kamiya] in their names, like [BT5-093 Tai Kamiya & Matt Ishida], with this card's inherited effect?
Show ruling
No, this card's inherited effect can only play cards specifically named [Tai Kamiya].
When this card is revealed from my deck with an effect like the one on [ST4-03 Tentomon], can I add it to my hand as if it was a green Digimon?
Show ruling
No. This card’s effects aren't activated when you reveal it from your deck with an effect. As such, the card isn't considered to be a green Digimon card, and can’t be added to your hand.
If this Digimon is in my battle area, can I digivolve it into a Digimon with “Green/Level 4” digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
If it’s your turn, then yes, you can.
If this Digimon is in my breeding area, can I digivolve it into a Digimon with “Green/Level 4” digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
No, you can't. Effects don't activate from breeding areas, so this Digimon isn't treated as green, and you can't digivolve it into a Digimon that requires a green level 4 Digimon.
I attack my opponent with a Digimon that has this card in its digivolution cards. If they block it with one of their Digimon, does this card's effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does. [When Attacking] effects activate before your opponent gets to activate <Blocker>.
I have a Digimon that gained <Security Attack +1> from another card’s effect, and which also gained <Piercing> from this card’s inherited effect. I attack an opponent's Digimon with it, and perform a security check with <Piercing>. The first card checked has a <De-Digivolve 1> [Security] effect, which trashes the top card of my attacking Digimon, turning it into a Digimon without [Machine] or [Dragonkin]. This causes the Digimon to also lose <Piercing>. Do I still perform the second check?
Show ruling
Yes. <Piercing> has already activated. Perform the additional check, assuming your Digimon still has <Security Attack +1>.
I attack my opponent with this Digimon. If they block it with one of their Digimon, does this card's effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does. [When Attacking] effects activate before your opponent gets to activate <Blocker>.
I attack my opponent with this Digimon. If they block it with one of their Digimon, does this card's effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does. [When Attacking] effects activate before your opponent gets to activate <Blocker>.
If an opponent's Digimon gains <Blocker> from an effect or as an inherited effect from one of its digivolution cards, can I delete that Digimon with this card's effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
I attack my opponent with this Digimon. If they block it with one of their Digimon, does this card's effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it does. [When Attacking] effects activate before your opponent gets to activate <Blocker>.
If a Digimon card with [Gabumon] in its name and a Tamer card are among the cards revealed with this card’s inherited effect, can I add both to my hand?
Show ruling
No, you can only add one or the other.
Can I add a non-blue Digimon card with [Gabumon] in its name or a non-blue Tamer card to my hand off this card’s inherited effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
During my main phase, I have an unsuspended Digimon in play with this card in its digivolution cards. If one of my effects unsuspends that Digimon, does this card’s inherited effect activate?
Show ruling
No. The Digimon is already unsuspended, so this card’s inherited effect doesn’t activate. The Digimon must go from suspended to unsuspended for the effect to activate.
This card’s inherited effect reads, “This Digimon can't be blocked.” How does this effect work, exactly?
Show ruling
If you attack with a Digimon that has this inherited effect while the effect is active, your opponent's Digimon can't change the target of the attack by blocking.
I have a Digimon with [Imperialdramon] in its name and this card in its digivolution cards. Can it attack an opponent’s suspended Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
My opponent attacks with a Digimon with [Imperialdramon] in its name and this card in its digivolution cards. Even though I can't block it, can I still try to block with my Digimon with <Blocker> just to suspend my Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. If your Digimon has the "...can't be blocked" effect, your opponent's Digimon can't block or suspend to block.
If I have 5 cards in hand when activating this card’s [When Digivolving] effect, how much memory do I gain?
Show ruling
You gain 1 memory.
If an opponent's Digimon gains an [On Deletion] effect from an effect or as an inherited effect from one of its digivolution cards, can this card's [When Attacking] effect target that Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
If I have 4 blue cards in my digivolution cards, does this card’s [Your Turn] effect grant +4000 DP?
Show ruling
No. “For each color” refers to unique colors. Blue is a single color, so the effect only grants +1000 DP.
An opponent's Digimon gets -2000 DP from this card's inherited effect. During the same turn, I end up with 2 or fewer cards in my security stack. Does the -2000 DP granted by this card’s inherited effect go away?

If a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards somehow attacks 2 or more times in the same turn, does the -1 digivolution cost reduction stack?
Show ruling
Yes. Reduce the digivolution cost by 1 for each time that Digimon attacked during the same turn.However, once you digivolve into a Digimon card that has [Insectoid] or [Ancient Insect] in its traits, the accumulated digivolution cost reductions from this effect will be reset.

Show ruling
No, you can't reduce the memory cost of digivolutions performed in your breeding area with this card's inherited effect.

I digivolve using this card’s [When Attacking] effect. If the Digimon I digivolve into has a [When Attacking] effect, does that effect activate?

Show ruling
The attack continues. The turn doesn’t switch over until the attack has ended.
I have a Digimon that gained <Security Attack +1> from another card’s effect, and which also gained <Piercing> from this card’s inherited effect. I attack an opponent's Digimon with it, and perform a security check with <Piercing>. The first card checked has a <De-Digivolve 1> [Security] effect, which trashes the top card of my attacking Digimon, turning it into a Digimon without [Free] in its traits or [Imperialdramon] in its name. This causes the Digimon to also lose <Piercing>. Do I still perform the second check?
Show ruling
Yes. <Piercing> has already activated. Perform the additional check, assuming your Digimon still has <Security Attack +1>.
When digivolving with this card's [When Attacking] effect, paying the digivolution cost moves the memory gauge to 1 or more on my opponent’s side. What happens to the attack?

Can I play a Token with this card’s [Security] effect at the end of the battle even if this card loses the battle against the attacking Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes. The [Security] effect activates as soon as the card is flipped during the security check, which means you can play the Token regardless of the battle's outcome.
This card is flipped over during a security check, but the attacking Digimon still has security checks remaining. Is the Token played off this Digimon’s [Security] effect first, or do I have to wait until my opponent finishes the rest of their security checks?

If this card's effect plays a Digimon, is it treated as a Security Digimon even in my battle area?
Show ruling
No, it's treated as a normal Digimon once it comes into play.
An opponent’s Digimon with <Security Attack+1> attacks me directly, and this card is flipped over during the first security check and played in my battle area by its [Security] effect. If I have a [Mother D-Reaper] with 6 or more digivolution cards in play, can this card's [Opponent’s Turn] effect prevent my opponent's second security check?
Show ruling
Yes. This card’s [Opponent's Turn] effect gives your opponent’s attacking Digimon <Security Attack -1> before the second security check, so the second security check does not occur, and the attack ends.
When one of my Digimon would digivolve into a Digimon with [Gallantmon] or [Growlmon] in its name, if I can no longer pay the digivolution cost due to the inherited effect on my opponent's [EX3-016 SnowAgumon] or [EX3-019 Paledramon] and the digivolution fails, does the Digimon from the attempted digivolution still gain the [When Digivolving] <Blitz> effect from this card's effect?
Show ruling
Yes. This card's effect reads "when [...] would digivolve into," so the effect interrupts the digivolution when it activates. Therefore, it activates first and gives that Digimon <Blitz> even if the digivolution later fails.
Can I activate this card’s effect when a Digimon in my breeding area digivolves into a level 5 or level 6 card?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't activate for Digimon in breeding areas.
When one of my level 5 Digimon would digivolve into a level 6 and I delete that level 5 Digimon with this card's effect, what happens?
Show ruling
You can't continue the digivolution, and the level 6 Digimon card returns to your hand. The level 5 Digimon is deleted and no digivolution cost is paid.
I attack with my [Beelzemon Blast Mode]. Can I activate this card’s [Your Turn] effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This card can only be activated when you attack with a card explicitly named [Beelzemon].
I used [ST14-02 Impmon] to attack, and its [When Attacking] effect digivolved it into [Beelzemon] from my trash. At such times, can I use this card's effect to again digivolve [Beelzemon] into [Beelzemon: Blast Mode] in my trash?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If my opponent has a Digimon with 3000 DP or less in play, can I choose not to delete an opponent’s Digimon intentionally but still <Draw 2>?
Show ruling
No. The effect doesn't read “you may,” so if a Digimon with 3000 DP or less is in play, you must choose it as part of the effect.
Can I use this card to digivolve into a Digimon card with a special digivolution costing 3 or less?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I use this card to DNA Digivolve into a Digimon card with a DNA Digivolution costing 3 or less?

Can I use this card to digivolve one of my Tamers into a Digimon that can digivolve from Tamers?
Show ruling
No. The effect reads “You may digivolve 1 of your Digimon,” so you can’t use it to digivolve a Tamer.
Can I ignore digivolution requirements when digivolving by the effect of this card, as long as the cost is 3 or less?
Show ruling
No, this card's effect does not allow ignoring digivolution requirements, so you can't ignore digivolution requirements unless some other effect that permits you to do so.
I have a card in my hand with an effect that reads “1 of your Digimon may digivolve into this card in your hand for a digivolution cost of 3.” Can I use this card’ to digivolve into it?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I activate effects that reduce digivolution costs like <Digisorption> or [EX1-071 Win Rate: 60%!] to reduce the digivolution cost of a card in my hand from 4 or more to 3 or less, and then use this card to digivolve into it?
Show ruling
No, those effects are only active when the digivolution is taking place, which means they reduce the digivolution cost after a player has announced a digivolution. As such, at the time this card's effect is activated, the digivolution cost hasn't been reduced, and you can't choose the card with this card’s effect.
I have a Digimon card with multiple digivolution requirements: one with a digivolution cost of 3, and one with a digivolution cost of 4. Can I use this card to digivolve into that Digimon card and apply the requirement with a cost of 4?
Show ruling
No. Even if the card has a digivolution requirement with a cost of 3, if you want to digivolve off the requirement with a cost of 4, you can’t use this card to digivolve.
Do cards trashed from my opponent’s security stack by this card's [When Attacking] effect activate their [Security] effects?
Show ruling
No, the cards weren't being flipped over by a security check, so their [Security] effects don't activate.
My opponent has 1 or more cards in their security stack. I attack my opponent with this Digimon and its [When Attacking] effect trashes their last security cards, leaving them with zero cards in their security stack. If the attack isn't blocked and my attack is successful when they have zero cards in their security stack, do I win the game?
Show ruling
Yes, you do.
I have a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards. If that Digimon is already unsuspended, does an effect that reads "unsuspend 1 of your Digimon" activate this card's inherited effect?
Show ruling
No. Even if both Digimon are deleted simultaneously, the effects activate one at a time. When the first Salamon's effect activates, you add 1 card to your security stack, bringing the total up to 4.
Does "[Dragon], [saur] or [Ceratopsian] in one of its traits" mean that this effect's targets include [Dragonkin] in addition to [Dragon]?
Show ruling

Show ruling
Yes, as long as either a Digimon card with the [Rock Dragon], [Earth Dragon], [Bird Dragon], [Machine Dragon], or [Sky Dragon] trait or a [Hina Kurihara] is among the cards revealed, you can add it to your hand.
This card's effect reveals 4 cards.

Show ruling
No. This card's effect reads “Add 1 Digimon card [...] and 1 [Hina Kurihara] among them to your hand,” so you must add as many cards to your hand as possible.
I used this Digimon's [When Digivolving] effect to DNA digivolve, and this caused the memory gauge to move to my opponent's side. This brought the end of the turn. Can I use this card's inherited effect to DNA digivolve again?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If I use this card's [When Digivolving] effect to digivolve into a level 4 purple Digimon, does my other Digimon have to be purple?

I have 2 Digimon in this card's digivolution cards, and my opponent's Digimon digivolves with no digivolution cards. Does the digivolution cost increase by 2?
Show ruling
Yes, the inherited effect activates for each of the 2 Digimon, so the digivolution cost increases by a total of 2.
2 of my opponent's Digimon with no digivolution cards DNA digivolve when my Digimon has this card in its digivolution cards. Does the digivolution cost increase by 2?
Show 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.
1 of my opponent's Digimon with no digivolution cards and 1 of my opponent's Digimon with digivolution cards DNA digivolves when my Digimon has this card in its digivolution cards. Does the digivolution cost increase by 1?

Show 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.
My Digimon has this card in its digivolution cards. Does the digivolution cost increase by 1 when my opponent digivolves a red Tamer with cards under it into a [BT4-011 Agunimon]?

When a Digimon with no digivolution cards digivolves and the digivolution cost increases due to this card's inherited effect, what happens if I can't pay the digivolution cost as a result?

Which player chooses the Digimon that attacks by this card's [Start of Opponent's Main Phase] effect?
Show ruling
Your opponent chooses.
At what timing does my opponent choose the Digimon that attacks by this card's [Start of Opponent's Main Phase] effect?
Show ruling
Immediately after this effect activates and you suspend 1 of your Digimon with [Dramon] or [Examon] in its name by this card's effect.
Can my opponent choose my Digimon with a "can't attack" effect as the target when they activate this card's [Start of Opponent's Main Phase] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, they can. In such cases, the attack isn't performed and the effect ends due to the "can't attack" effect.
Can I activate this card's [Start of Opponent's Main Phase] effect even if there are no Digimon in my opponent's battle area?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. In such cases, there are no target Digimon, therefore the effect ends without an attack being performed.
I used this card's [Start of Opponent's Main Phase] to suspend my [EX3-044 Breakdramon] or [EX3-074 Examon] and had my opponent attack. At such times, how do I process effects such as "when this Digimon is suspended" effects on these Digimon and [When Attacking] effects on the attacking Digimon?
Show ruling
When this Digimon is suspended effects and the [When Attacking] effect are triggered by a single effect, therefore they are considered to trigger simultaneously. According to the simultaneous trigger rules, first the turn player's [When Attacking] effects will activate, then the non-turn player's "when this Digimon is suspended" effects will activate.
When I have 2 of this card, can I activate the [Start of Opponent's Main Phase] effect on both and have 2 of my opponent's Digimon attack?
Show ruling
No, you can't. You can activate the effect itself twice, but after the attack declaration is made and effects such as [When Attacking] effects have activated for your opponent's 1st Digimon, the 2nd card's effect activation timing will occur before the counter timing. However, since the 1st Digimon is already attacking, its attack will continue and an attack declaration can't be made for the 2nd card.
My opponent used this card's [Start of Opponent's Main Phase] to suspend their [EX3-074 Examon]. [EX3-074 Examon]'s effect reads "when this Digimon becomes suspended, unsuspend it, and suspend 1 of your opponent's Digimon." Can I attack my opponent's [EX3-074 Examon] before that effect unsuspends it?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. The attack declaration is made for this card's [Start of Opponent's Main Phase] effect before the suspended [EX3-074 Examon]'s effect, therefore [EX3-074 Examon] is still suspended at that time and can be an attack target.
I used this card's [On Deletion] effect to place a [EX3-069 Trial of the Four Great Dragons] from my hand in the battle area. Does [EX3-069 Trial of the Four Great Dragons]'s "[Main] <Draw 1>. Then, place this card in your battle area." effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t activate. This card's [On Deletion] effect only places a [Trial of the Four Great Dragons] from your hand in the battle area when you don't already have a [Trial of the Four Great Dragons] placed.
This card’s effect reveals 4 cards. If the cards revealed only include a yellow card with the [Angel], [Cherub], [Throne], [Authority], [Seraph], or [Virtue] trait or a card with the [Four Great Dragons] trait, can I still add a card to my hand?

Show ruling
Yes. If you do not play it, you must trash it.
My opponent activates this card's [On Play] effect. Can I DNA digivolve an unsuspended Digimon and a suspended Digimon in the next turn?
Show ruling
No, you can't. Unless you have 2 suspended Digimon for the DNA digivolution, you can't digivolve because of this card's effect.
My opponent activates this card's [On Play] effect. Can I use a <Digisorption> effect to suspend an unsuspended Digimon and then digivolve that Digimon in the next turn?
Show ruling

My opponent activates this card's [On Play] effect. Can I digivolve an unsuspended Tamer into a [BT4-011 Agunimon] in the next turn?
Show ruling
No, you can'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 red Digimon," so it is considered to be an unsuspended Digimon and can't digivolve.
Can I choose not to digivolve after returning cards with [D-Brigade] in their traits from my trash to the top of my deck for this card's "When you would digivolve into this card" effect?

No, you can't. The "When you would digivolve into this card" effect is an effect where you return cards with [D-Brigade] to the top of your deck and reduce the digivolution cost after you reveal this card from your hand and declare a digivolution. Once you return cards, you can't cancel the effect.
Do I only trash a purple or red card with [Imperialdramon] in its name or [Free] in its traits among the cards revealed from my deck by this card's [On Play] effect?
Show ruling

I used this Digimon's [When Digivolving] effect to DNA digivolve, and this caused the memory gauge to move on my opponent's side. Is it possible to use this card's inherited effect to DNA digivolve again at the end of the turn?
Show ruling
Yes, this is possible.
After declaring an attack with this Digimon, this Digimon's digivolution cards were trashed by an effect during the reaction timing window. Is the attack canceled?

One of my Digimon digivolved into a Digimon with [Rock Dragon], [Earth Dragon], [Machine Dragon], or [Sky Dragon] in its traits when I had 2 copies of this card in play. Can I suspend both copies of this card and activate the digivolved Digimon's [On Play] effects twice?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. However, you can't activate 2 effects at the same time, so you must activate them 1 at a time. After you suspend the first card and activate 1 of the digivolved Digimon's [On Play] effects, then you may suspend the second card and activate the second [On Play] effect. Note that if the first effect or another effect triggers an effect that deletes the digivolved Digimon or otherwise removes it from the battle area, the second effect doesn't activate.
One of my Digimon digivolved into a [EX3-012 Volcanicdramon] when I had 2 copies of this card in play. I used the effects on the first copy of this card to activate [EX3-012 Volcanicdramon]'s [On Play] effect and deleted all of my opponent's Digimon with the lowest DP. At this time, does the [On Deletion] effect of my opponent's deleted Digimon activate first or does the effect on the second copy of this card activate first? (2022/07/22)
Show ruling
The [On Deletion] effect is triggered afterward, so the [On Deletion] effect takes priority and activates first.
What does "While you have a level 6 Digimon with [Machine] in its traits in play, you may use this card without meeting its color requirements." mean, exactly?
Show ruling
If one of your level 6 Digimon with [Machine] in its traits is in the battle area, you may use this Option card even when you don't have a red and black Digimon or Tamer in play.
This card's effects read "The Digimon played by this effect can't digivolve to level 7, and at the end of your opponent's turn, delete that Digimon." Do I delete that Digimon even if digivolution cards are added by an effect and then it becomes another Digimon due to an effect such as <De-Digivolve>?
Show ruling
Yes, it is still a Digimon that was played by this effect, so you delete it at the end of your opponent's turn.
If I use this card's effect to play a Digimon, can I DNA digivolve that Digimon into a level 7 Digimon?
Show ruling
No, if the Digimon to digivolve into is level 7, DNA digivolving is not possible either.
Does this card's [Security] effect activate if I or my opponent don't have any Digimon in the respective battle areas?

Show ruling
No, it means every 10 cards in the total sum of cards in your trash and the cards in your opponent's trash.For example, if you have 15 cards in your trash and your opponent has 9 cards in their trash, the total would be 24.

What does [Trash] in this card's [End of Your Turn] effect mean?
Show ruling

Show ruling

Does "For every 10 total cards in both players' trashes" in this card's [On Play] effect mean every 10 cards in either me or my opponent's trashes?
Show ruling
No, it means every 10 cards in the total sum of cards in your trash and the cards in your opponent's trash.For example, if you have 15 cards in your trash and your opponent has 9 cards in their trash, the total would be 24.

Does this card's effect also activate when an opponent's Digimon with the [Blue Flare] or [Twilight] trait is played during my turn?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.

If a card with the [Twilight] trait is played by another effect before this card's effect activates, can I perform both <Draw 1> and "return 1 Digimon card with DigiXros requirements from your trash to your hand" in this card's effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't.If Digimon with the [Blue Flare] and [Twilight] traits are played by separate effects, this card's effect will separately trigger for each trait.Because of the rule that states that an effect triggered afterward will take precedence for activation, for the situation stated in your question, ""return 1 Digimon card with DigiXros requirements from your trash to your hand"" will activate by playing the Digimon with the [Twilight] trait, but because the effect is a [Once Per Turn] effect, <Draw 1> doesn't activate by playing the Digimon with the [Blue Flare] trait.
This card has the [Blue Flare] trait, so do I get <Draw 1> from this card's own effect when this card is played?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.

"I chose 1 of my opponent's Digimon with 3 or fewer digivolution cards as the target for ""can't attack until the end of your opponent's turn"" in this card's inherited effect.Then, that opponent's Digimon digivolved and its digivolution cards increased to 4 or more. What happens to the ""can't attack until the end of your opponent's turn"" effect?"
Show ruling
The "can't attack" effect won't end until the end of your opponent's turn, even if the digivolution cards increase to 4 or more.
After this card's [On Play] effect was used to prevent a level 4 or lower Digimon from attacking, the Digimon digivolved and became level 5 or higher. Can this Digimon attack?
Show ruling
Yes, it can attack.The effect reads ""all of your opponent's level 4 or lower Digimon,"" therefore the effect will no longer affect Digimon that become level 5 or higher after the effect activates.

Show ruling
No, it can't.A Digimon targeted by this effect will be affected until the timing specified in the effect, even if its DP increases to 7000 or more after the effect activates.
If I use this card's [When Digivolving] effect on an opponent's Digimon with 8000 DP and its DP is reduced by -2000 so that it becomes 6000 in a situation where I have a blue or yellow Tamer in play or I have a card with the [Armor Form] trait in my trash, can I choose that Digimon as the target for the effect that prevents 1 Digimon from attacking or blocking?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I use [EX4-072 Digital Translator]'s effect to digivolve [Sakuyamon] into this card?

If this Digimon has 3 or more digivolution cards and I have a Digimon with the [Light Fang]/[Night Claw]/[Galaxy] trait, is the digivolution cost still reduced by 2 when digivolving this Digimon into a Digimon card in my hand?
Show ruling
No, it isn't. This card's effect reads "when this card would be [...] digivolved into," therefore the effect doesn't activate for digivolutions from this card.
Can this card's [When Digivolving][When Attacking] effect delete an opponent's Digimon with the [Deva] trait or 6000 DP or less?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
In a state where my opponent had no Digimon, I used this Digimon with <Security A. +1> to attack, [BT3-036 Ankylomon] was flipped over for the 1st security check, and the [Security] effect played it as an opponent's Digimon at the end of the battle. When the 2nd security check is performed, can this card's [Your Turn] effect delete my opponent’s [BT3-036 Ankylomon]?
Show ruling
No, it can't. This card's [Your Turn] effect triggers "when a card is removed from your opponent's security stack," therefore it will trigger/activate when the 1st security check is performed, even if there are no targets. Because it's a [Once Per Turn] effect, it can't trigger when the 2nd security check is performed.
Can I use this card's effect to add a card to my hand when only 1 card with [Garurumon]/[X Antibody] in its name is among the 4 revealed cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.In such cases, you add as many cards to your hand as possible.
If the 4 cards revealed for this card's effect include 1 each of a card with [Garurumon]/[X Antibody] in their names, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining cards at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling
No. If you have cards that are targets of this effect, you must add as many cards to your hand as possible.
Can I use this card's effect to add 2 cards with [Garurumon] in their names to my hand when 2 cards with [Garurumon] in their names and 1 card with [X Antibody] are among the 4 revealed cards?
Show ruling

What does "by placing the top card of this Digimon [...] as this Digimon's bottom digivolution card" in this card's inherited effect mean, exactly?
Show ruling
It means that you place the top card of the Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards as the bottom digivolution card. For example, if you have a level 4 Digimon with just this card in its digivolution cards, you place that level 4 Digimon card under this card. This will turn this Digimon into a level 3 Digimon with the level 4 Digimon card as a digivolution card.
This card's inherited effect placed a stacked card under this Digimon's digivolution cards and increased my memory by 2 when another copy of this card was in this card's digivolution cards. Can this be repeated to give me infinite memory?
Show ruling
No, it can't. A record of activation remains for the inherited effect's [Once Per Turn] even if this card stops being a digivolution card, so it can't be activated twice in the same turn.
Can I use this card's [Start of Your Main Phase] effect to return this Digimon itself to the hand and gain 2 memory?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I use this card's [Start of Your Main Phase] effect to return my [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] from the battle area to the hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If your [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] is chosen as the target to return to the hand for this card's effect, it will ultimately be placed at the bottom of the Digi-Egg deck instead of the hand according to the rules, but it meets this card's "by returning 1 of your Digimon to the hand" condition. A card isn't actually added to the hand, therefore effects such as "when a card is added to the hand" don't trigger.
Can I use this card's [Start of Your Main Phase] effect to return my token that was played as a Digimon from the battle area to the hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If your token is chosen as the target to return to the hand for this card's effect, it will ultimately be removed from the game instead of being returned to the hand according to the rules, but it meets this card's "by returning 1 of your Digimon to the hand" condition. A card isn't actually added to the hand, therefore effects such as "when a card is added to the hand" don't trigger.
If the 3 cards revealed for this card's effect include only either 1 card with the [Light Fang] trait or 1 card with the [Night Claw]/[Galaxy] trait, can I just add that 1 card to my hand?
Show ruling
Yes, even if you only reveal one of the applicable cards, you can still add it to your hand.
If the 3 cards revealed for this card's effect include 1 card with the [Light Fang] trait and 1 card with the [Night Claw]/[Galaxy] trait, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining cards at the bottom of my deck?

Does this card's [When Digivolving][When Attacking] effect prevent my opponent's Digimon from suspending even when I activate an effect such as a "suspend 1 of your opponent’s Digimon" effect?
Show ruling
Yes. They can't suspend by effects regardless of whether they were activated by you or your opponent.
If an opponent's Digimon with no digivolution cards enters the battle area after this card's [When Digivolving][When Attacking] effect activates, can that Digimon suspend?

Show ruling
Yes, it can.
What does "when an effect places the top card of one of your Digimon in a Digimon's digivolution cards" in this card's [Your Turn] effect mean, exactly?
Show ruling
You place the top card of one of your Digimon in the digivolution cards of that Digimon or another of your Digimon. This doesn't include when the top card becomes a digivolution card through digivolution.
I used this card's [Start of Opponent's Turn] effect to play and DNA digivolve a Digimon. In such cases, does the played Digimon's [On Play] effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t. The [On Play] effect will trigger, but it can't activate because the Digimon becomes a digivolution card through DNA digivolution before the effect activates.
Does "return 1 Digimon card with the [Light Fang], [Night Claw] or [Galaxy] trait from your trash to the hand" in this card's [Main] effect activate when my opponent doesn't have any Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
If my opponent has no Digimon or Tamers, does that mean that I can't activate this card's [Main] effect?

Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
Does this card's "if this effect trashed a card with the [Seven Great Demon Lords] trait" refer to the card trashed from my hand or my opponent's level 6 or lower Digimon that I deleted?
Show ruling
It refers to the card trashed from your hand.
If an effect plays an opponent's Digimon while this card is in the battle area, do I have to activate <Delay>?
Show ruling
No, <Delay> effects are "trash this card in your battle area to activate" effects, therefore you can choose to not trash the card in order to prevent them from activating.
When an effect plays an opponent's Digimon into the breeding area, does this card's <Delay> activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't.
If my opponent uses [BT13-020 ShineGreymon: Burst Mode]'s effect to play [Marcus Damon] as a Digimon, does this card's <Delay> activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't. [Marcus Damon] is played as a Tamer by [BT13-020 ShineGreymon: Burst Mode] effect and then it's treated as being a Digimon by an effect, therefore it isn't considered to be played as a Digimon.
Does this card's <Delay> also activate when one of my effects plays an opponent's Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
If a Digimon has this card in its digivolution cards, does that mean that it isn't treated as "1 of your Digimon without [X Antibody] in its digivolution cards"?
Show ruling
That's correct. This card has a "Name: Also treated as [X Antibody]" rule, therefore a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards isn't treated as "1 of your Digimon without [X Antibody] in its digivolution cards."
Does this card's inherited effect only activate if both [X Antibody] and a Digimon card are in the digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No, it activates even if only this card is in the digivolution cards.
If a Digimon with this card in its digivolution cards would be deleted other than by one of my effects, then an effect such as <Decoy> prevents it from being deleted, does this card's inherited effect activate?
Show ruling
Yes, it activates.
Can I use this card and then place this card in digivolution cards without digivolving 1 of my Digimon without [X Antibody] in its digivolution cards?
Show ruling
No, you can't. If digivolution isn't performed using this card's effect, you can't place this card in digivolution cards.
When I don't have any Digimon, can I use this card's effect to reveal a card with the [Deva]/[Four Sovereigns] trait and declare to place it as the bottom digivolution card of my Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't.
If I use this card's effect to reveal an Option card with the [Deva]/[Four Sovereigns] trait from my deck, can I place that card as the bottom digivolution card of my Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Does "when this card would be used, reduce the cost by 1 for each [Deva] or [Four Sovereigns] trait card with a different name in your trash" include this card itself when I use it?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't.

Show ruling
Yes, it can.
If this Digimon attacks after DNA digivolving, does "if DNA digivolving, trash any 8 digivolution cards from your opponent's Digimon" in this card's [When Attacking] effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t. If this effect is activated [When Attacking], only "delete 1 of their Digimon with as many or fewer digivolution cards as this Digimon" activates.
If my opponent's Digimon have less than 8 digivolution cards when this card's [When Digivolving][When Attacking] effect activates, does that mean that those digivolution cards can't be trashed?
Show ruling
No, as many as possible are trashed.
Can this Digimon be attacked by my opponent’s Digimon with <Raid> or a “this Digimon can also attack unsuspended Digimon” effect?
Show ruling
Yes, it can. <Raid> and “this Digimon can also attack unsuspended Digimon” effects affect the attacking Digimon itself, so such effects aren't affected by "this Digimon isn't affected by the effects of your opponent's Digimon" effects.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect prevent [Security] effects on my opponent's Security Digimon from affecting this Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it isn't affected. [Security] effects on Security Digimon are treated as Digimon effects, so the "this Digimon isn't affected by the effects of your opponent's Digimon" effect prevents such effects from affecting this Digimon.
I used this card's inherited effect to add 1 card from my security stack to the hand and then place 1 Digimon card with the [Angel], [Archangel] or [Three Great Angels] trait from the hand at the bottom of my security stack. At such times, is a card considered to be added to my security stack, allowing "when a card is added to your security stack" effects to activate?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.

Show ruling
Yes, you must delete them.
If [Leviamon] and [Leviamon (X Antibody)] are in this card's digivolution cards, are they considered "cards with different names"?
Show ruling
Yes, they are. When cards such as [Leviamon] and [Leviamon (X Antibody)] differ in that one has [X Antibody] in its name and the other doesn't, you can reference the cards as if they have different names.
Does [Gate of Deadly Sins] itself in digivolution cards also count for this card's "if this Digimon has 5 or more digivolution cards with different names"?

Yes, it does.

Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
Do I have to activate this card's inherited effect when a Digimon card would be played?
Show ruling
No, you can choose not to.
Can I also activate this card's inherited effect when a Digimon would be played by an effect?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
Can I use this card's inherited effect to reduce the digivolution cost by 3 even if this card has 5 or more digivolution cards with different names?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to pay 1 cost even when I don't have any [Legend-Arms] trait or level 3 Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. The activation conditions include paying 1 cost and placing this card as 1 of your [Legend-Arms] trait or 1 of your level 3 Digimon's bottom digivolution card, therefore the effect can't be activated just by paying 1 cost.
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to pay 1 cost even when I don't have any [Legend-Arms] trait or level 4 Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. The activation conditions include paying 1 cost and placing this card as 1 of your [Legend-Arms] trait or 1 of your level 4 Digimon's bottom digivolution card, therefore the effect can't be activated just by paying 1 cost.

Show ruling
No, you can't. The activation conditions include paying 2 cost and placing this card as 1 of your [Legend-Arms] trait or 1 of your level 5 Digimon's bottom digivolution card, therefore the effect can't be activated just by paying 2 cost.
Can I use this card's [Main] effect to pay 3 cost even when I don't have any [Legend-Arms] trait or level 6 Digimon?
Show ruling
No, you can't. The activation conditions include paying 3 cost and placing this card as 1 of your [Legend-Arms] trait or 1 of your level 6 Digimon's bottom digivolution card, therefore the effect can't be activated just by paying 3 cost.
Can I use a Digimon that was played this turn or a suspended Digimon to attack with this card's [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. This effect does not allow you to attack with Digimon that are in a state where they can't attack.
If a [RagnaLoardmon] with this card in digivolution cards is deleted in battle against a Security Digimon, does that Security Digimon's [Security] effect activate?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t activate. The activation timing for the [Security] effect is before the battle with the Security Digimon, so even if a [RagnaLoardmon] with this card in its digivolution cards is deleted in battle, the [Security] effect can't be activated.
Does this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect prevent my opponent's effects from affecting this Digimon even when my opponent has 0 security cards?
Show ruling
Yes, it is no longer affected.
Can I gain <Draw 1> with this card's [On Play] effect even when this card is played from digivolution cards?

Show ruling
Yes, you must return your Digimon to your hand.

Show ruling

Yes, even if you only reveal one of the applicable cards, you can still add it to your hand.
If the cards I reveal from my deck for this card's [On Play] effect include both a Digimon card with the [Angel] or [Archangel] trait and a card with the [Three Great Angels] trait, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining cards at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling

Does this card's "when you would play this card" effect also activate when this card would be played by an effect?
Show ruling

Can I use this card's [End of Your Turn] effect to place 1 of my level 6 Digimon on top of my security stack even when I don't have [Lucemon: Chaos Mode] in my trash?

Does this card's [All Turns] effect trigger when this card is in the battle area and would be placed in another Digimon’s digivolution cards for a DigiXros?
Show ruling
Yes, it triggers. Because a Digimon also leaves the battle area when it's placed in digivolution cards for a DigiXros, the effect triggers and activates.
I chose this card as a target for a DigiXros. Then, I used this card's [All Turns] effect to return a yellow Digimon card to the hand. At such times, can the card returned to the hand be placed for the DigiXros?

No. If you have cards that are targets of this effect, you must add as many cards to your hand as possible.
If I add both a card with the [Fallen Angel] or [Demon Lord] trait and a purple Option card to my hand for this card's [On Play] effect, do I trash 2 cards in my hand?
Show ruling

A Digimon affected by this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect attacked the opponent player, then a [Security] effect gave this Digimon <De-Digivolve 1> and trashed it. Does the [End of Attack] effect activate in such cases?
Show ruling

What does this card's "when [...] would leave the battle area" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
"When [...] would leave the battle area" refers to when this Digimon is placed in the trash, returned to the hand/deck, placed in the security stack, moved to the breeding area, or placed under another card.
When this Digimon would leave the battle area, can I use this card's [All Turns] effect to return 1 [Lucemon] from its digivolution cards or my trash to the bottom of the deck, but choose to not play 1 [Lucemon: Satan Mode] or 1 level 6 [Seven Great Demon Lords] trait Digimon card from my trash?

What happens if this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect is given to a Digimon that activated a "this Digimon isn't affected by your opponent’s effects until the end of your opponent's turn" effect?
Show ruling
A Digimon with a "this Digimon isn't affected by your opponent’s effects" effect can also be chosen as a target for this effect, therefore your opponent's Digimon will be affected by this card's effect as soon as it loses the "this Digimon isn't affected by your opponent’s effects" effect. As a result, it's deleted at the [End of Your Turn] timing.

Can I use this card's [All Turns] effect to play a purple Tamer card from my trash?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
What does "for each card in your opponent's hand, reduce this effect's play cost maximum by 1" in this card's [All Turns] effect mean, exactly?
Show ruling
It means that you reduce the maximum for the play cost of the card that can be played by this effect by 1 for each card in your opponent's hand. For example, if your opponent has 4 cards in their hand, you would reduce 10 by 4, resulting in a maximum play cost of 6, meaning that you can play 1 purple card with a play cost of 6 or less without paying the cost.

Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
What happens if this card's [Main] effect is given to a Digimon that activated a "this Digimon isn't affected by your opponent’s effects until the end of your opponent's turn" effect?
Show ruling
A Digimon with a "this Digimon isn't affected by your opponent’s effects" effect can also be chosen as a target for this effect, therefore your opponent's Digimon will be affected by this card's effect as soon as it loses the "this Digimon isn't affected by your opponent’s effects" effect.

If there are 7 cards in my hand and I have 2 of this Digimon at the start of my main phase, can I draw a total of 2 cards from both instances of this card's effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. At the start of your main phase, the [Start of Your Main Phase] effect on 2 of this Digimon simultaneously trigger, then the player determines the activation order. However, because your hand increases to 8 cards from <Draw 1> on the 1st Digimon, the effect's conditions aren't met for the 2nd Digimon, so the effect doesn't activate. As a result, you only draw 1 card.
If I have 7 cards in my hand upon an attack by my Digimon with 2 of this card in its digivolution cards, can I draw a total of 2 cards from both instances of this card's effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. Upon the attack declaration, the inherited effects on the 2 copies of this card simultaneously trigger, then the player determines the activation order. However, because your hand increases to 8 cards from <Draw 1> on the 1st card, the effect's conditions aren't met for the 2nd card, so the effect doesn't activate. As a result, you only draw 1 card.
Does this card's [When Attacking] effect prevent deletion in battles against Security Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it is not deleted.
Does this card's [When Attacking] effect prevent deletion even when my opponent's deleted Digimon has <Retaliation>?
Show ruling
No. Deletion by <Retaliation> is deletion by an effect, not deletion in battle.
If I have 7 cards in my hand upon an attack by my Digimon with 2 of this card in its digivolution cards, can I draw a total of 2 cards from both instances of this card's effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. Upon the attack declaration, the inherited effects on the 2 copies of this card simultaneously trigger, then the player determines the activation order. However, because your hand increases to 8 cards from <Draw 1> on the 1st card, the effect's conditions aren't met for the 2nd card, so the effect doesn't activate. As a result, you only draw 1 card.
If I trash 2 blue cards in my hand, can I use this card's [When Digivolving] [When Attacking] effect to trash 1 card under each of 2 of my opponent's Digimon/Tamers?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If this card's [When Attacking] effect activates once from an attack, then this Digimon is unsuspended by an effect, attacks again, and the effect activates again in the same turn, does this Digimon gain 2 total instances of <Security A. +1>, resulting in 2 additional security checks?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
My opponent activated this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect. If my Digimon without digivolution cards then gains digivolution cards by digivolving or other method, can it now attack?
Show ruling
Yes, it can now attack. This card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect targets "none of their Digimon with no digivolution cards," therefore Digimon that no longer meet the conditions can no longer be effect targets.
Do I have to activate this card's [End of Attack] effect?
Show ruling
Yes. If this Digimon is in the battle area at the end of an attack, you must activate the effect.
Can I use this card's [Your Turn] effect to reduce the digivolution cost by 2 when my Digimon with [Angoramon] in its text would digivolve into a Digimon card without [Angoramon] in its text?
Show ruling
No, you can't. The digivolution cost is only reduced by 2 when it would digivolve into a card with [Angoramon] in its text.
When this Digimon would digivolve into a Digimon card with the [Angoramon] in its text, I used this card's effect to suspend this Digimon and reduce the digivolution cost by 2. At such times, can I use this card's "when this Digimon becomes suspended" effect to give this Digimon <Rush>?
Show ruling
No, you can't. As soon as the digivolution is complete, this card becomes a digivolution card, and its effects can no longer activate.
Can this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect give 1 on my Digimon <Blocker> even when my opponent has no Digimon?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
I used this card's [When Attacking] effect to play a Digimon card with [Angoramon] in its text. What happens if it digivolves and has a card on top of it at the end of my opponent's turn?
Show ruling
The top card is returned to the hand and all of the cards under it are trashed.
Can I use this card's [All Turns] effect to delete this Digimon and prevent my Digimon with [Gammamon] in its text from leaving the battle area when this Digimon and my Digimon with [Gammamon] would leave the battle area at the same time due to a single effect?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I use this card's [When Digivolving] effect to return my [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] from the battle area to the security stack, reveal all cards in my opponent's security stack, and place 1 card among them at the top of my opponent's deck?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If your [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] is chosen as the target to place in the security stack, it will ultimately be placed at the bottom of the Digi-Egg deck instead of the security stack according to the rules, but it meets this card's "by placing 1 Digimon on top of its owner's security stack" condition. A card isn't actually added to the security stack, therefore effects such as "when a card is added to the security stack" don't trigger.
Can I use this card's [When Digivolving] effect to return my token played as a Digimon from the battle area to the hand, reveal all cards in my opponent's security stack, and place 1 card among them at the top of my opponent's deck?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If your token is chosen as the target to place in the security stack, it will ultimately be removed from the game instead of being placed in the security stack according to the rules, but it meets this card's "by placing 1 Digimon on top of its owner's security stack" condition. A card isn't actually added to the security stack, therefore effects such as "when a card is added to the security stack" don't trigger.
If I choose my [EX2-007 Mother D-Reaper] or token that is treated as a Digimon in the battle area as the target for this card's [When Digivolving] effect, it isn't placed in the security stack. In such cases, do "when a card is removed from the security stack" effects trigger because a card wasn't added to the security stack even though it normally should have been added?
Show ruling
No, it doesn’t trigger.
Is "[Digivolve] While you have 2 or fewer security cards, [Agumon]: Cost 3" a digivolution requirement added by an effect while I have 2 or fewer security cards?
Show ruling
No, this is a standard digivolution requirement for a Digimon card. It references the number of your security cards, but it's not an effect.
Can I use <Blast Digivolve> to digivolve my [Agumon] into this card in the hand when I have 2 or fewer security cards and an opponent's Digimon attacks?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. Digivolution is possible as long as you have 2 or fewer security cards when you use <Blast Digivolve>.
If an opponent's Digimon attacks when I have 2 or fewer security cards, then an effect adds a card to my security stack so my security stack has 3 or more cards when I use <Blast Digivolve>, can my [Agumon] digivolve into this card in the hand?
Show ruling
No, it can't. Digivolution from [Agumon] isn't possible because the digivolution requirements aren't met when you use <Blast Digivolve>.
If an opponent's Digimon attacks when I have 3 security cards, then an effect removes a card from my security stack so my security stack has 2 or fewer cards when I use <Blast Digivolve>, can my [Agumon] digivolve into this card in the hand?
Show ruling
Yes, it can. Digivolution from [Agumon] is possible as long as the digivolution requirements are met when you use <Blast Digivolve>.
If I use an effect such as P-103 [Offense Training]'s <Delay> that digivolves a Digimon, can my [Agumon] digivolve into this card in the hand when I have 2 or fewer security cards?
Show ruling
Yes, it can.
What does "[On Play] [When Digivolving] Delete your opponent's Digimon up to a total DP equal to this Digimon's DP" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
This effect allows you to choose any number of your opponent's Digimon whose total DP adds up to the same as this Digimon's DP or less, then you delete all of them. For example, if this Digimon has 14000 DP when its [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect activates, you can choose any number of your opponent's Digimon whose DP adds up to a total of 14000 or less, such as 1 with 10000 DP and 1 with 4000 DP, or 2 of their Digimon with 7000 DP each, then you delete them.
Can I intentionally choose targets whose total DP adds up to a lower value than this Digimon's DP?
Show ruling
Yes, you can choose any targets as long as their total DP adds up to a value less than or equal to this Digimon's DP. However, you must choose at least 1 of your opponent's Digimon whose total DP is equal to or less than this Digimon's DP.
Is "[Digivolve] While you have 2 or fewer security cards, [Gabumon]: Cost 3" a digivolution requirement added by an effect while I have 2 or fewer security cards?
Show ruling
No, this is a standard digivolution requirement for a Digimon card. It references the number of your security cards, but it's not an effect.
Can I use <Blast Digivolve> to digivolve my [Gabumon] into this card in the hand when I have 2 or fewer security cards and an opponent's Digimon attacks?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. Digivolution is possible as long as you have 2 or fewer security cards when you use <Blast Digivolve>.
If an opponent's Digimon attacks when I have 2 or fewer security cards, then an effect adds a card to my security stack so my security stack has 3 or more cards when I use <Blast Digivolve>, can my [Gabumon] digivolve into this card in the hand?
Show ruling
No, it can't. Digivolution from [Gabumon] isn't possible because the digivolution requirements aren't met when you use <Blast Digivolve>.
If an opponent's Digimon attacks when I have 3 security cards, then an effect removes a card from my security stack so my security stack has 2 or fewer cards when I use <Blast Digivolve>, can my [Gabumon] digivolve into this card in the hand?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. Digivolution from [Gabumon] is possible as long as the digivolution requirements are met when you use <Blast Digivolve>.
If I use an effect such as P-103 [Offense Training]'s <Delay> that digivolves a Digimon, can my [Gabumon] digivolve into this card in the hand when I have 2 or fewer security cards?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If I have exactly 3 cards in my security stack, do I activate both "suspend 1 Digimon, and 1 of your Digimon gets +3000 DP until the end of your opponent's turn" and the "return 1 of your opponent's suspended Digimon to the bottom of the deck" effect when activating this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect?
Show ruling
Yes, that's correct.
Does this card's [All Turns] effect prevent [Security] effects on my opponent's Security Digimon from affecting this Digimon while it's suspended?
Show ruling
Yes, it isn't affected. [Security] effects on Security Digimon are treated as Digimon effects, so the "this Digimon isn't affected by the effects of your opponent's Digimon" effect prevents such effects from affecting this Digimon.
If this Digimon is affected by a "can't unsuspend" effect from an opponent's Digimon, does it unsuspend during my unsuspend phase?
Show ruling
Yes, it unsuspends. After it suspends, it's no longer affected by your opponent's effects, so it can now unsuspend.
What does this card's "when [...] would leave the battle area" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
"When [...] would leave the battle area" refers to when this Digimon is placed in the trash, returned to the hand/deck, placed in the security stack, moved to the breeding area, or placed under another card.
Does <Overflow> apply when I use this card's [All Turns] effect to place this card in the digivolution cards of the played [Guilmon]?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't. <Overflow> applies when a card from the battle area or from under a card is placed into another area. In this case, it doesn't apply because a card from the battle area is placed under another card.
You activate an effect that reads "Return 1 of your opponent's Digimon to their hand. Trash all of the digivolution cards of that Digimon" to return an opponent's Digimon to their hand. When your opponent's digivolution cards are trashed as a result, can you activate this card's effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't. "Trash all of the digivolution cards of those Digimon" is an explanation of what happens to the digivolution cards of the Digimon when it returns to their hand. It doesn't count as trashing digivolution for the purposes of this card's effect.
Does this card's effect activate even if it has [Garurumon (X Antibody)] as a digivolution card?
Show ruling
No, only cards specifically named [Garurumon] meet the condition for this card's effect. The effect won't activate with card names such as [Garurumon (X Antibody)] that don't match, even if the name includes [Garurumon].
Does this card's effect apply if it has [Agumon Expert] or [ToyAgumon] as a digivolution card?
Show ruling
No. This card's effect only applies if a card with the exact name [Agumon] is one of its digivolution cards. Despite [Agumon Expert], [ToyAgumon], and other Digimon cards having [Agumon] in their names, the effect doesn't apply if it isn't an exact match.
Do I always have to activate this card's effect when I attack?
Show ruling
No. The effect is voluntary.
If I have 2 or fewer cards in my deck, can I activate this Digimon’s [When Attacking] effect?
Show ruling
No, you can't.
Can I use this card's When Attacking effect to trash 6 cards from the top of my deck and give this card +4000 DP?
Show ruling
No, you can't.
I attack with this card and activate its When Attacking effect to get +2000 DP. I then unsuspend this card using a card effect and attack again. Can I use the When Attacking effect again to get an additional +2000 DP?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Can I activate this card's inherited effect when I have 2 or less non-Digi-Egg cards in my trash?
Show ruling
No, you can't.
When using this card's inherited effect to return cards from my trash to the bottom of my deck, is my opponent allowed to check what cards I am returning to my deck?
Show ruling
Yes. Cards in your trash are considered public information, so please let your opponent confirm which cards you're returning to your deck before you do so.
Can I use this card's inherited effect to return 3 non-Digi-Egg cards to the bottom of my deck but not activate <Draw 1>?
Show ruling
No, you can't.
At what timing does this card's [Main] effect activate?
Show ruling
Like Main effects on Option cards, you can activate these effects at any time during your main phase. However, you can't activate them to interrupt an attack or another effect.
Can I use this card's effect if I have a Digimon with [Veedramon] in its name in my breeding area?
Show ruling
No, it doesn't check Digimon in the breeding area.
If I have two copies of this Tamer as well as one [Veedramon] in play in my battle area, can I active the effects of both Tamers?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If I have one [Veedramon] in play in my battle area, can I activate this card's effect to make a Digimon that doesn't have [Veedramon] in its name get +1000 DP?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
Does a [Diaboromon] token count as 1 [Diaboromon] for this card's effect?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
Does this card itself count as 1 [Diaboromon] for its effect?
Show ruling
Yes, it does.
Do I always have to activate this card's effect?
Show ruling
Yes, as long as you are able to.
If I have a [Mimi Tachikawa] in play, can I use this card's effect to play a [Palmon] from my hand without paying its memory cost?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
If I only have either [ExVeemon] or [Stingmon] in my hand, can I use this card?
Show ruling
You can use this card, but unless you place both [ExVeemon] and [Stingmon] at the bottom of your deck from your hand, you can't use this card's effect to play a [Paildramon] from your hand without paying its memory cost.You also can't use this card to place only [ExVeemon] or [ExVeemon] at the bottom of your deck from your hand.
Can I use this card if I don't have a [Patamon] in play?
Show ruling
You can, but you won't be able to place any cards at the bottom of your security stack.
Can I use this card and activate its effect if I have a [P-012 Tai Kamiya (V-Tamer)] in play?
Show ruling
No. This card's effect requires you to have a card named [Tai Kamiya] in play. [Tai Kamiya (V-Tamer)] isn't an exact match, so it can't be used to meet this card's requirements.
Can I use this card's effect to place a card that has [Agumon] in its name (like [ToyAgumon], [Agumon Expert], or [BushiAgumon]) at the bottom of my deck to <Draw 3>?
Show ruling
No. The card name has to be [Agumon] for you to be able to place it at the bottom of your deck.
I digivolve a suspended Digimon into this card, and paying the memory cost for the digivolution moves the memory gauge to 1 or more on the opponent's side. Before it becomes my opponent's turn, can I activate this card's <Digi-Burst> to unsuspend this Digimon?

Show ruling
No, it doesn’t activate. [EX5-070 X Antibody Proto Form]'s inherited effect will trigger/activate "when this Digimon would leave the battle area other than by one of your effects," but since [EX5-070 X Antibody Proto Form] isn't in this Digimon's digivolution cards at the time of activation of the [On Deletion] effect because it's placed in your security stack before this Digimon is deleted, the "if [X Antibody] was in this Digimon's digivolution cards" condition isn't met, so the effect doesn't activate.

If the cards I reveal from my deck for this card's [On Play] effect include both a [Hiro Amanokawa] with [Gammamon] in its text and a non-[Hiro Amanokawa] card with [Gammamon] in its text, can I choose to only add one of them to my hand, and place the remaining cards at the bottom of my deck?
Show ruling

In such cases, can I use "delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with DP less than or equal to this Digimon's DP" to delete 1 of my opponent's Digimon with DP less than or equal to the DP after it was increased?
Show ruling

I used this card's [When Digivolving] effect to delete 1 of my opponent's Digimon. At this time, can I choose to not unsuspend this Digimon for the [Your Turn] effect, and then when I later delete another opponent's Digimon in battle, etc., can I activate the effect and unsuspend this Digimon?
Show ruling

My opponent has a [BT4-066 Golemon] in play. If [BT4-066 Golemon] is chosen as part of this card’s effect, [BT4-066 Golemon]’s deletion will cause my opponent’s black Digimon to each receive -1000 DP. Can I choose more of my opponent’s Digimon with this card’s effect to cover the gap to reach 8000 DP?
Show ruling
No. When [BT4-066 Golemon] is deleted, reducing the DP of your opponent’s Digimon, this card’s effect will have already finished activating. As such, you cannot choose additional Digimon with this card’s effect midway.
