OCG Rulings

• The effect of "Shiny Black "C"" is an optional Quick Effect.

• Removing "Shiny Black "C"" from play is a cost to activate its effect. This effect targets the one Synchro Monster that was Special Summoned.

• When you opponent activates "Monster Reborn" and Special Summon your Synchro Monster to his field, if "Remove Brainwashing" is on the field, then the monster is still considered to have been Special Summoned to your opponent's field, even though it is now on your side of the field. Thus, you can activate the effect of "Shiny Black "C"" to destroy the Synchro Monster, even though it is on your side of the field.

• The effect of "Shiny Black "C"" cannot be activated during the Damage Step, such as when "Colossal Fighter" is destroyed by battle and Special Summons itself.

• If an effect like "Book of Moon" is chained to the effect of "Shiny Black "C"" so that the Synchro Monster is face-down when resolving the effect of "Shiny Black "C"", then "Shiny Black "C"" will not destroy the face-down monster.

• The effect of "Shiny Black "C"" can only be activated when one Synchro Monster is Special Summoned. If multiple monsters including one Synchro Monster are Special Summoned simultaneously, then you cannot activate the effect of "Shiny Black "C"". If multiple Synchro Monsters are Special Summoned simultaneously with no non-Synchro Monsters, then you cannot activate the effect of "Shiny Black "C"".
