#REDIRECT [[Summoning condition]]
 
 
===Cannot be Special Summoned===
 
This is a blanket Summon Condition that forbids the card from being [[Special Summon]]ed by any means, be it from the [[hand]], [[Main Deck|Deck]], [[Graveyard]], or [[Banished Zone]].

===Cannot be Special Summoned from the Graveyard.===
 
A less limiting restriction than the one above. This allows cards to be Special Summoned from the [[hand]], [[Main Deck]], [[Extra Deck]], or [[Banished Zone]], but not from the [[Graveyard]]. That said, you could use "[[Monster Reincarnation]]" or "[[Pot of Avarice]]" to move cards with this limitation to your hand or Deck (respectively) from your Graveyard.

===Cannot be Special Summoned unless...===
 
This allows cards to be Special Summoned from anywhere, but only if the condition is met.

===Must (first) be Special Summoned by/with...===
 
This refers places a restriction on how the card must be '''first''' [[Special Summon]]ed. The card cannot be Special Summoned by an external effect until the summoning condition has been properly fulfilled, after which, the monster in question may be Summoned with cards such as "[[Monster Reborn]]". If the card was sent to the [[Graveyard]] before being Summoned correctly, it cannot be Special Summoned; likewise, if the card was Special Summoned correctly the first time, but is then sent from the field or the Graveyard back to the [[Main Deck|Deck]], the Summoning Conditions are then reset. These cards are referred to as '''[[Special Summon-only monster]]s''' or sometimes incorrectly referred to as '''Semi-Nomi''' monsters.
 
 
 
===Must be Special Summoned by/with [...], and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways===
 
This is much like the first example, but this time, it prevents the card from being [[Special Summon]]ed by any effect other than the one on its effect, preventing it from being Special Summoned by cards such as "[[Monster Reborn]]". "[[LV Monster|LV]]" monsters' support cards, such as "[[Level Modulation]]", get around this by including [[Ignoring the Summoning conditions]] in their card text. However, even with this restriction lifted, such cards can only Special Summoned from the Graveyard if they have been properly Summoned first. "[[Level Up!]]" is able to bypass this completely, since it Special Summons directly from the Deck. These cards are referred to as '''[[Nomi]]''' monsters. Cards such as "[[Dark Armed Dragon]]" and "[[Destiny HERO - Plasma]]" are Nomi monsters and can only be Special Summoned with its Summoning Condition from the hand. "[[Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode]]" is also a Nomi monster and can only be Special Summoned from the Deck with "[[Assault Mode Activate]]".
