OCG Rulings[]
- This card's effect begins a chain after the monster is successfully Synchro Summoned[1]. The effect targets one appropriate monster in your Graveyard.[2]
- If "Urgent Tuning" is activated at Chain Link 2 or higher so that you Synchro Summon in the middle of a Chain and "Beast of the Pharaoh" was one of the Synchro Material Monsters, then you can activate the effect of "Beast of the Pharaoh" after the Chain finishes resolving, without having its effect miss the timing.[3]
- If "Nitro Synchron" is used as a Synchro Material Monster because "Urgent Tuning" is activated at Chain Link 2+ to Synchro Summon a monster in the middle of resolving a Chain, then the effect of "Nitro Synchron" activates after the current Chain finishes resolving, without missing the timing. Similarly, if "Sinister Sprocket" or "Beast of the Pharaoh" is used for a Synchro Summon in the middle of resolving a Chain, then its optional effect can be activated after the current Chain resolves, without missing the timing.[4]
- If "Beast of the Pharaoh" was sent from the hand to the Graveyard because it was used as a Synchro Material Monster for a Synchro Summon along with "Eccentric Boy", then the effect of "Beast of the Pharaoh" may be activated.[5]
- If a monster like "Quick-Span Knight" or "Beast of the Pharaoh" is used as a Synchro Material Monster but the Synchro Summon is negated by a card like "Solemn Judgment", then the effect of "Quick-Span Knight" does not activate since the Synchro Summon was not successful.[6]
Previously Official Rulings[]
