Forum:Van'Dalgyon the Dark Dragon Lord and Solemn Judgment

I am confuse regarding the text of Van'Dalgyon the Dark Dragon Lord. since it stated :

After a Counter Trap Card you control negates the activation of an opponent's card(s) or effect(s), you can Special Summon this card from your hand. Then activate the appropriate effects, based on the type of card negated: • Spell: Inflict 1500 damage to your opponent. • Trap: Select and destroy 1 card your opponent controls. • Effect Monster: Select 1 monster in your Graveyard and Special Summon it.

while Solemn Judgment stated: Pay half of your Life Points. Negate an activation of a Spell / Trap Card / Normal Summon / Flip Summon / Special Summon and destroy the Spell Card, Trap Card, or Summoned monster.

So does that means that I cannot sp summon Van'Dalgyon the Dark Dragon Lord and it's"Select 1 monster in your Graveyard and Special Summon it." if I Solemn Judgment my opp tribute summoned Raiza the Storm Monarch ?'

Since base on the text of Van'Dalgyon the Dark Dragon Lord I assume it needs to negates the activation of an opponent's card(s) OR effect(s), which therefore I can sp summon it ?

While for the activate the appropriate effects, based on the type of card negated: which was Raiza the Storm Monarch (I negated it's summon, it's tyoe if card is an effect monsters ), therefore I Select 1 monster in my Graveyard and Special Summon it.

But my opp said that it's needs to negate effect so in this case I did not cause I only negated the summon.

So " base on the type of card negated " which case is it ?

Thanks
