Netrep Q&As:
Q: If “Reflect Bounder” is in Face Down Attack position through the effect of “Darkness Approaches” will its effect activate when it is attacked?
A: “Reflect Bounder’s” effect will activate after it is flipped face-up by the attack. “Reflect Bounder” is flipped face-up before damage calculation. That is why its effect will activate. Curtis Schultz, 02/04/2004
