This card can only be Special Summoned from your hand or your Deck by Tributing 1 "Great Dezard" that has fulfilled the condition. You can flip this card into face-down Defense Position once per turn during your Main Phase.

When this card is flipped face-up, you can Special Summon 1 Zombie-Type monster from your Graveyard.
Rulings
- Fushioh Richie cannot negate cards like Bottomless Trap Hole, or Kisetai, because they do not target.
- When your opponent uses Double Snare on Fushioh Richie, Double Snare is negated and destroyed.
- You can use Premature Burial or Call of the Haunted to Special Summon Fushioh Richie from your GY, as long as Fushioh Richie was Special Summoned using the proper method (Great Dezard) previously.
- When Fushioh Richie is flipped face-up, you can Special Summon a high-level Zombie from your GY (like Vampire Lord or Ryu Kokki).
- Fusioh Richie’s effect is activated if attacked and flipped face-up by the attack, or if Flip Summoned, or if flipped face-up by a card effect.
