It is either a monster that can function as an Equip card through its own effect, such as Union monsters, or, it is a monster forcibly equipped by another card's effect such as Relinquished's ignition effect.
"Relinquished" + "Thousand-Eyes Idol" As long as this card remains face-up on the field, other monsters cannot change their battle positions or attack. Select 1 monster on your opponent's side of the field, and equip it to this card (this effect can only be used once per turn, and you can only equip 1 monster at a time to this card). The ATK and DEF of this card become the same amounts as the monster equipped to this card. If this card is destroyed as a result of battle, the equipped monster is destroyed instead.
Relinquished is Ritual Summoned with the Ritual Spell Card Black Illusion Ritual. It requires a monster as a Tribute to Special Summon Relinquished from your Hand. Once Relinquished is successfully Ritual Summoned, if it is sent to the Graveyard, it is eligible to be Special Summoned from it. You cannot Special Summon Relinquished from the Graveyard unless it was successfully Ritual Summoned first.
As an Ignition Effect monster, Relinquished can only take a monster in your own turns, in your own main phases. Monsters who can activate in the opponent's turn will usually specifically state so, or be a trigger which activates when a certain condition is met, regardless of turn.
Monsters who go into the S/T zone for any reason are then treated as Continuous Spell Cards or Equip Spell Cards depending on what it is doing. It is no longer a monster card so is unaffected by anything that specifically affects monster cards, and cannot be tributed for a tribute summon, etc. However if something required you to send an Equip Spell Card to the graveyard, you could use that monster.
Select 1 monster your opponent controls and equip it to Relinquished (this effect can only be used once per turn, and you can only equip 1 monster at a time to this card). The ATK and DEF of Relinquished becomes the same as the monster equipped to it. If Relinquished should be destroyed by battle, the equipped monster is destroyed instead, and any battle damage you would receive from that battle is inflicted to your opponent's Life Points.
The effect of "Relinquished" is as follows: Select 1 monster on your opponent's side of the field and equip it to this card (this effect can only be used once per turn and you can only equip 1 monster at a time to this card). The ATK and DEF of this card become the same amounts as the monster equipped to this card. If this card is destroyed as a result of battle, the equipped monster is destroyed instead, and any battle damage you received from the battle is also inflicted to your opponent's Life Points.The first effect of "Relinquished" has some guidelines.You must have an open Spell/ Trap card zone for the selected monster to put the monster in.If you choose to equip a face-down monster to "Relinquished", "Relinquished" gains no ATK or DEF."Relinquished" only gains the ATK and DEF of the monster, not its effects.If you choose to equip a monster to "Relinquished" and on that same turn the equipped monster is removed from the field, you must wait until your next turn to equip another monster due to the "once per turn" restriction listed in the card.This effect can only be activated during the Main Phase 1 or 2 of your turn.As for calculating damage when a monster is equipped to "Relinquished", keep in mind these few things:Damage to your Life Points are calculated before inflicting Effect Damage to your opponent. This means if your Life Points are brought down to 0 because of an attack, the duel ends before "Relinquished"'s effect kicks in.If this card attacks a defense position monster with a higher DEF than this card's ATK, your opponent will take Effect Damage because of "Relinquished"'s effect, but since it "Relinquished" would not be destroyed in battle, the equipped monster remains.
the monster still gets the bonus of attack points hope this helps!
No, only monsters who specifically say they do, gain such a bonus. Relinquished for example, is one. It gains a bonus depending on what it has equipped, as does Destiny Hero Plasma. Dragunity monsters do not, unless one does actually say so.
It is either a monster that can function as an Equip card through its own effect, such as Union monsters, or, it is a monster forcibly equipped by another card's effect such as Relinquished's ignition effect.
Ignoring things like Relinquished or Destiny Hero Plasma, Pitch-Dark Dragon can only Union itself with a Dark Blade monster you control.
Flint is sent to the graveyard
This could be answered in three ways. 1. Any monster can be attached to Relinquished by its effect. 2. Curse of Dragon, Dark Magician, and Jigen Bakudan were the monsters that were equipped to Relinquished during Pegasus' duel with Yugi. 3. Thousand-Eyes Idol fuses with Relinquished to form Thousand-Eyes Restrict.
then all cards on the field are destroyed unless the union monster has an effect that says that it can be destroyed instead of the equipped monster
Relinquished is a Ritual Monster released in the Pegasus Starter Deck.
I assume you mean Ritual Summon, as Relinquished can't be summoned by tribute summon. Once Relinquished is on the field, you as the turn player have Priority, you can start a chain by targeting an opponent's monster with its Ignition Effect. The opponent is free to chain to this as normal. If it resolves properly, Relinquished will be equipped. You can ask to enter the battle phase, but remember the opponent doesn't have to let the phase pass if he's got something he wants to use, so he can use something to possibly destroy Relinquished first. So basically, you can certainly summon Relinquished, and on its first turn (not THE first turn, of course, no attacks can be declared) , steal a monster and attack, but not 'immediately' in the sense that the opponent gets chance to respond to every part of the process.
No. The effect of Turbo Warrior denies this possibility as Relinquished is a Level 1 monster.
