Card Rulings:Desertapir


 * You cannot select any "Desertapir" with "Desertapir's" effect.


 * If you have "Destruction Punch" and "Desertapir" is attacked by a monster with ATK lower than "Desertapir's" effect, and "Desertapir's" effect flips the attacking monster face-down, the effect of "Destruction Punch" is applied and the attacking monster is destroyed.


 * If "Mystical Knight of Jackal" or "Ghost Knight of Jackal" attacks, and is flipped face-down by "Desertapir", the attacking monster is no longer face-up when "Desertapir" is sent to the Graveyard (which is when their effects activate), so their effects do not apply to "Desertapir".

Mentions in Other Rulings

 * Grave Protector: When there is a face-up "Grave Protector" on the field and a face-down "Desertapir" is attacked, and "Desertapir's" Flip Effect flips "Grave Protector" face-down, the "Desertapir" is sent to the Graveyard at the end of the Damage Step instead of to the Deck.
