During an attack by my Digimon with <Piercing>, I activate this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] [When Attacking] effect, the attacking Digimon and an opponent's Digimon battle, and my opponent's Digimon was deleted in battle.

Show ruling
No, you only perform 1 security check for <Piercing>. Only 1 security check can be performed during a single attack, even if <Piercing> activates multiple times. However, if the number of checks is modified by <Security A.>, that number of cards will be checked in a single security check.
During an attack by my Digimon with <Piercing>, I use this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] [When Attacking] effect to have that Digimon and an opponent's Digimon battle, and my opponent's Digimon was deleted in battle. Then, if the attack target successfully becomes an opponent's Digimon, it loses the battle, but an effect prevents it from being deleted, can I still activate that Digimon's <Piercing>?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. <Piercing> is an effect that triggers and activates if an opponent's Digimon is deleted in battle during the attack, and it's processed immediately before the end of attack timing. <Piercing> will still trigger if the Digimon with <Piercing> successfully attacks a Digimon, even if another battle occurs during this battle.

If an opponent's Digimon with 1 or fewer digivolution cards enters the battle area after this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect activates, can that Digimon suspend?
Show ruling

If an opponent's Digimon gains 2 or more digivolution cards after this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect activates, can that Digimon now suspend?

Show ruling

Show ruling
A [Main] effect shown on the DUAL card's Option side will activate. Activated effects on the Option side are treated as Option card effects.
Is an "activate 1 [Main] effect on this card's Option side" effect considered to be using an Option card?

Can I use this card's [When Digivolving][When Attacking] effect to activate the [Main] effect on the Option side and give -15000 DP to a Digimon that isn't affected by Digimon effects?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. If an effect on the Option side is activated, it's considered to be an Option card effect. Because it isn't a Digimon effect, the DP will be reduced by -15000.
What does an "is also treated as a Digimon with X000 DP" effect do, exactly?
Show ruling
It causes that card to also be treated as a Digimon with X000 DP. For example, if a Tamer is also treated as a Digimon, it can attack like a standard Digimon, and it will gain inherited effects from cards stacked under it. However, even if a Tamer is played and then treated as a Digimon in the same turn, it can't attack during that turn.
If a Tamer is also treated as a Digimon using an "is also treated as a Digimon with X000 DP" effect, is it no longer considered a Tamer?
Show ruling
No, it is treated as both a Digimon and a Tamer.
If a Tamer is also treated as a Digimon using an "is also treated as a Digimon with X000 DP" effect and it activates an effect, is it treated as both a Digimon effect and a Tamer effect?
Show ruling
Yes, it's treated as an effect of both. Because the card is treated as both a Digimon and a Tamer, the activated effect is treated as both a Digimon effect and a Tamer effect.
If a Tamer is also treated as a Digimon using an "is also treated as a Digimon with X000 DP" effect, then another effect causes its DP to become 0, is it deleted upon a rule check?

If a Tamer is also treated as a Digimon using an "is also treated as a Digimon with X000 DP" effect, and later it gains another "is also treated as a Digimon with X000 DP" effect, what happens?
Show ruling
If an effect has triggered and the card is affected by a "is also treated as a Digimon with X000 DP" effect, the play cost, level, and DP are overwritten by the newer effect. However, if an effect has already activated and the card is affected by a "is also treated as a Digimon with X000 DP" effect, the already activated effect will be overwritten. Any other effects such as <Rush> that are later gained will be added.
Can I gain memory using an effect on a Tamer that's treated as a Digimon with X000 DP due to an effect while my opponent has "your opponent can't gain memory other than by Tamer effects" activated?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. When an effect is activated on a card that's treated as both a Digimon and a Tamer, the effect is treated as both a Digimon effect and a Tamer effect, therefore you can gain memory.
If an opponent's card has "isn't affected by Digimon effects" and it's chosen for an "is also treated as a Digimon with X000 DP" Tamer effect that treats it as a Digimon, will the chosen opponent Digimon be affected by effects?
Show ruling
No, it won't be affected by effects. When an effect is activated on a card that's treated as both a Digimon and a Tamer, the effect is treated as both a Digimon effect and a Tamer effect, therefore the chosen opponent Digimon won't be affected by effects.
I have a [Marcus Damon] that is treated as a Digimon with 6000 DP. My Digimon in the battle area digivolves into this card, and I use this card's [All Turns] effect to increase that [Marcus Damon]'s DP to 12000 and give it <Rush>. What happens to that [Marcus Damon] if this card is then removed from the battle area?
Show ruling
It will be treated as a Digimon with 6000 DP, and it will lose <Rush>. This card's [All Turns] effect is always activated while it's in the battle area. As soon as this card is removed from the battle area, the effect will be lost, and the [Marcus Damon] will be treated as it was before.

Show ruling
No, you can't. A "by" condition can't be met if only some of the required actions are performed. The conditions for this [Opponent's Turn] effect require you to trash the specified number of digivolution cards.
What does "end the attack" mean, exactly?
Show ruling
After this effect activates, the current timing makes a transition to the end of attack timing. For example, if this effect activates during the attack declaration timing, it will make a transition to the end of attack timing. A transition to the counter timing or block timing won't occur, and the attack won't succeed.
Can an "end the attack" effect end an attack by a Digimon that isn't affected by effects?
Show ruling

Show ruling
Yes, they activate.
I used a DUAL card with the [Three Musketeers] trait as an Option card from my hand. Can I then use Arts Digivolve to digivolve this card into the card I used, ignoring digivolution requirements?
Show ruling
No, you can't. A used Option card is treated as not being in any area until its [Main] effect has been resolved and the card would be trashed. You can’t ignore digivolution requirements because it isn't treated as a card in the hand.
Can I activate this card's [Your Turn] effect at the same time as an effect such as P-107 [Defense Training]'s effect that digivolves?
Show ruling
Yes, you can.
When this card's [Your turn] effect activates and I <Recovery +1 (Deck)>, when exactly does this happen?
Show ruling
The effect triggers "when this Digimon would digivolve," so it occurs after declaring the digivolution, but before paying the digivolution cost.

Show ruling
Yes, its [Security] effect activates, then it battles.
I activated this card's [All Turns] effect to delete a Token when this card's DP became 0 and it would be deleted, then it was prevented from leaving. If this card's DP is still 0 after that and it would be deleted, can I activate this card's [All Turns] effect again?
Show ruling
Yes, you can. By activating this card's [All Turns] effect to delete a Token when this card's DP becomes 0 and it would be deleted by a rule check, it will be prevented from leaving. You can activate this card's [All Turns] effect again when it would be deleted by the next rule check. If the deleted Tokens have [On Deletion] effects, once all processing has been resolved for the rule checks, those [On Deletion] effects will trigger simultaneously.
I activated <Decode> to play a Digimon when this card's DP became 0 and it would be deleted, then I activated <Evade>, and it was prevented from being deleted. If this card's DP is still 0 after that and it would be deleted, can I activate <Decode> again?
