Q&A Rulings
- Q: A face-up "Dragon Spirit of White" in my Monster Zone is destroyed by the effect of "Dark Hole" and sent to my Graveyard. At this time, can I activate the effect of "Guardragon Garmides" that Special Summons it from my hand?
- A: "Dragon Spirit of White" is treated as a Normal Monster in the Graveyard by its own effect. Therefore, when it is destroyed and sent from the field to the Graveyard by a card effect as in this scenario, you can activate the effect of "Guardragon Garmides" that Special Summons it from your hand.[2]
