because of the errata, "Darkness Approaches" can no longer change a monster to face-down Attack Position
During an open [[game state]] in the [[Main Phase]], the [[turn player]] can manually change the battle position of any individual monster they [[control]]. Each monster's battle position can only be changed manually once per [[turn]].
If a monster is [[Summon]]ed, [[Normal Set]], or [[declare]]s an [[attack]] (even if the attack was [[negate]]d or cancelled due to a [[replay]]), it cannot manually change its battle position for the rest of that turn. If a monster attacks battles due to a card effect that [[conducts damage calculation]] without declaring an attack, it can still change its battle position afterwards.
You cannot change monsters to [[face-down]] [[Attack Position]] whether , neither manually or nor by a card effect (except with the effect of "[[Darkness Approaches]]"). Face-down [[Defense Position]] monsters are always [[flip]]ped when changed to Attack Position. If a monster is manually changed from face-down Defense Position to face-up Attack Position, it is [[Flip Summon]]ed (which is both a kind of Summon and a kind of battle position change).
Card effects that prevent monsters from changing battle positions only prevent them from changing their battle positions manually (except "[[Raging Cloudian]]")—their battle positions can still be changed by card effects.
