Editing Special Summon-only monster

"Semi-Nomi" is a term that refers to a special sub-group of monsters.  If a monster is a "Semi-Nomi Monster" then it means it must be [[Special Summon]]ed by its listed effect before it can be [[Special Summon]]ed by another effect.  [[Aqua Spirit]], [[Harpie Lady Sisters]], and [[Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning]] are all Semi-Nomi monsters. You can recognize a Semi-Nomi monster because it will have "This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned by..." text in its card lore (although some cards, like [[Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning]] do not have the first sentence, the 'No Normal Summon or Set' rule still applies).  There is also a [[Special Summon Only Monster List|List of Semi-Nomi monsters]].

There is also a sub-type of monsters called [[Nomi]].

-==Card text==
-Current Special Summon-only monsters are identified by the following card text:
-* "Cannot be [[Normal Summon]]ed/[[Set]]." (for [[Main Deck]] non-[[Ritual Monster|Ritual]] monsters)
-* "[[Must first be]] [''Summon procedure'']."<ref>{{cite web|last1=Taketa|first1=Gregory|title=Special Summons – Spotting the Different Kinds|url=https://yugiohblog.konami.com/articles/?p=1099|publisher=Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME STRATEGY SITE|accessdate=25 April 2018|date=7 December 2009}}</ref>
-Earlier card texts do not distinguish between "Must be" and "Must first be" distinctions, and thus, their status as Special Summon-only monsters can only be distinguished through card-specific ruling.
