Card Rulings:Flamvell Firedog

OCG Rulings

 * If "Flamvell Helldog" is not face-up on the field when the destroyed monster is sent to the Graveyard, then the effect of "Flamvell Helldog" does not activate. Thus, the effect will not activate if "Flamvell Helldog" battles with a monster with equal ATK and both are destroyed by battle, so you cannot Special Summon a FIRE monster with 200 or less DEF.
