* If "[[Bait Doll]]" is activated and targets "[[Magic Jammer]]", "[[Magic Drain]]", etc. the opponent may chain the [[Trap Card]] to negate and destroy "[[Bait Doll]]". If he / she does not, the [[Trap Card]] will be destroyed since the activation timing is incorrect, and "[[Bait Doll]]" will be shuffled into your [[Deck]].
* You cannot chain to a [[Trap Card]] that was forced to activate by the effect of "[[Bait Doll]]" since an existing Chain is in the middle of resolving.
* If "[[Chain Burst]]" is active on the field and you use "[[Bait Doll]]" to activate the opponent's [[Trap Card]], and its timing is correct, the opponent takes the 1000 points of damage.
* When "[[Bait Doll]]" is activated, "[[Fake Trap]]" cannot be activated because there is no guarantee that "[[Bait Doll]]" will destroy a Trap Card.
* If you use this card on a [[Trap Card]] that was just [[Set]] this turn, the timing is incorrect so the [[Trap]] is destroyed.

If they cannot pay the costs, the [[Trap Card]] is negated and destroyed.

* If "[[Jinzo]]" is face-up on the field and the effect of "[[Bait Doll]]" forces the activation of a Normal or Counter [[Trap Card]], that [[Trap Card]]'s effect is negated and the [[Trap Card]] is destroyed. If a Continuous [[Trap Card]] is forced to activate by the effect of "[[Bait Doll]]" it will remain face-up on the field meaninglessly until "[[Jinzo]]" is destroyed.
* If the target of "[[Bait Doll]]" is no longer on the field (if it was sent to the [[Graveyard]] with "[[Emergency Provisions]]", or destroyed by "[[Mystical Space Typhoon]]", as a chain to the activation of "[[Bait Doll]]"), then "[[Bait Doll]]" is still shuffled back into the [[Deck]]. As long as the activation and effect of "[[Bait Doll]]" are not negated, the effect of "[[Bait Doll]]" that shuffles it back into the Deck still resolves.
