Effect
FLIP: You can target 1 "Shaddoll" card in your GY; add it to your hand. If this card is sent to the GY by a card effect: You can target 1 monster on the field; change its battle position. (Flip monsters' effects are not activated at this time, except "Shaddoll" monsters'.) You can only use 1 "Shaddoll Hound" effect per turn, and only once that turn.
【Regarding the ① effect】
This is a Trigger Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone.
It can also be activated during the Damage Step (if it is flipped face-up before damage calculation when attacked, it can be activated after damage calculation for that battle).
You can also target a "Shaddoll" Fusion or Link Monster with this effect. In that case, that monster is returned to the Extra Deck face-down.
【Regarding the ② effect】
This is a Trigger Effect that can be activated in the Graveyard.
It can be activated even if the condition is met during the Damage Step.
It cannot be activated if this card is sent to the Graveyard as a cost to activate a card effect.
In the process of "change that monster's battle position," an Attack Position monster becomes face-up Defense Position, and a face-up or face-down Defense Position monster becomes Attack Position.
It cannot be activated by targeting a Link Monster (because Link Monsters do not have a Defense Position).
Even if this card is activated as Chain 2 or higher, and a Flip monster other than a "Shaddoll" monster is flipped face-up by that effect, that monster's effect will not activate.
