If I activate this card's [All Turns] effect when multiples of my Digimon with the [Free] trait would be deleted at the same time other than by one of my effects, can I digivolve all of those Digimon and prevent them from being deleted?Nov. 1, 2024 Updated
- Answer
No, you can't.
1 digivolution can only be performed on 1 Digimon. You can't perform separate digivolutions on multiple cards at the same time.
Therefore, when multiples of your Digimon with the [Free] trait would be deleted other than by one of your effects, you can only use this card's effect to digivolve 1 of those Digimon.
In addition, only the digivolved Digimon is prevented from being deleted.

[All Turns] When my Digimon with the [Free] trait would be deleted other than by one of my effects during my opponent's turn, I used this card's [All Turns] effect to digivolve that Digimon into EX3-063 [Imperialdramon: Dragon Mode].
Can I then use <Blitz> in EX3-063 [Imperialdramon: Dragon Mode]'s [When Digivolving] effect to attack?Nov. 1, 2024 Updated
- Answer
No, you can't.
Only the turn player can attack.
In this case, your EX3-063 [Imperialdramon: Dragon Mode] can't attack because it isn't your turn.
