No, they are not 'on the field', ie, they cannot be targeted or affected by effects that work on a card on the field. As a further example, a Sangan used as a material monster, will not trigger if it is sent to the graveyard either by the Xyz monster's destruction, or effect.

When you use Polymerization do the component monsters have to be on the field or can use them while in your hand?
For Polymerization, the Fusion Components/ Fusion Material Monsters can either be in your hand or on the field, or a combination of both.
Can you use Fusion Substitute monsters from the deck for the effects of Future Fusion or Chain Material?
No, you cannot use Fusion Substitute Monsters for "Future Fusion". You can, however, use Fusion Substitute Monsters for "Chain Material" as long as those Fusion Substitute Monsters exist on your field or hand. The reason Fusion Substitute Monsters cannot be used from your deck is because they have no substitute ability while in the deck and thus cannot be used as replacements for other Fusion Material Monsters.
How do you summon a Gemini monster in Yu-Gi-Oh?
Gemini Monsters are normal or special summoned as normal, but when they arrive on the field, they are considered Normal Monsters and have no effects. The next time you are allowed to Normal Summon, you can 'second summon' them, ie, they count as being summoned again, even though they never leave the field. This turns them into effect monsters and switches on their effect. Note that if you are trying to 'second summon' a Lv5 or higher monster, no tribute is needed.
Are face-down monsters considered monsters?
Face-down monsters are indeed monsters for the purposes of cards which count monsters on the field or affect all monsters.However, if a card effect specifies a monster with a specific type, attribute, ATK, etc., it will ignore face-down monsters because those values are unknown in game terms.Note: monsters used as Equip cards are not considered monsters.
Can you synchro summon from your hand?

Are XYZ material cards considered to be on the field in Yu-Gi-Oh?
No, XYZ material cards are not considered to be on the field. They cease to be considered cards on the field, when they are overlaid, but do not count as 'leaving the field' for the purpose of effects that trigger from that. Also when they are sent to the graveyard for any reason, they do not count as being 'sent from the field' so again, effects that trigger from that, will not activate.
Can you use Gladiator Beast War Chariot if you have a Gladiator Beast as an Xyx material monster?
The XYZ material does not count as being 'on the field'. For example, a Sangan used as XYZ material does not trigger if sent to the graveyard because it does not count as being on the field. Likewise, they cannot be seperately be affected by destruction effects. Because of this, they also do not satisfy activation conditions like that of Gladiator Beast War Chariot.
When you use Polymerization do the component monsters have to be on the field or can use them while in your hand?

What happens to ekibyo drakmord if equipped to the opponents monster that is used as a stack in an XYZ Summon?
XYZ material monsters no longer count as being monsters on the field, any equip cards will fall off, they will go to the graveyard. Ekibyo Drakmord can only return to hand when it destroys the monster it equips. In this case it will simply go to the graveyard and can't return, it went there as its equip target became an invalid one.

How do you summon a Fusion Monster if one of the Fusion Material Monsters is another Fusion Monster?
When it comes to using Fusion Monsters as Fusion Material Monsters, they are used no differently than any other monster you would use as a Fusion Material Monster.For example, in order to use Polymerization, the required Fusion Material Monsters must be present in your hand and/or field. Since Fusion Monsters cannot exist in your hand, if you needed to Fusion Summon Dragon Master Knight, you will need to have the Fusion Monster Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon on the field and Black Luster Solider in your hand or on the field.It should also be noted that some Fusion Monsters like Dragon Master Knight do not state that "a Fusion Summon of this monster can only be conducted with the above Fusion Material Monsters". So you can use Fusion Substitute Monsters like King of the Swamp in place of the Fusion Monster.
Could Prime Material Dragon negate Des Croaking Effect?
Yes it can. 'Des Croaking' is an effect that will destroy monsters on the field, therefore Prime Material Dragon can chain to and negate it.
