Rulings

  • You cannot activate NEX if there is no Fusion Monster in your Extra Deck with the same name as a Neo-Spacian monster you control.
  • If Neo-Spacian Dark Panther copies the name of Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin, it can be sent to the GY for NEX, but no monster can be Special Summoned from your Extra Deck. Neo-Spacian Dark Panther is in the GY, its name is no longer treated as Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin, and there is no Fusion Monster whose name is or is treated as Neo-Spacian Dark Panther.
