Forum:Clear Kuriboh Question

"Clear Kuriboh" states:

"During either player's turn, when your opponent activates a monster effect that would inflict damage: You can discard this card; negate the activation."

Does this apply to solely effect damage, or does it apply to any type of damage cause by a monster effect. For example, the effect of "Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon" inflicts double the battle damage. So if I activate the effect of "Clear Kuriboh", would the normal amount of piercing damage apply, or does it only work with effect damage?
