Extra Information

This card is limited to one copy per deck. 1) When this Spirit is at [LV2][LV3], even if you are under the protection of effects like "Your Hand is unaffected by opposing effects", you still have to pay 5 extra costs if you are summoning non-Purple Spirit cards/Brave cards through effects, as Purple Smoke Lion's effect targets the player. 2) Cards that have more than one color, even if that includes Purple, are counted as "non-Purple cards" for the [LV2][LV3] effect of this Spirit. 3) This Spirit's LV2-3 effect applies to Burst summons as well. 4) While this Spirit's LV2-3 effect is active, if non-Purple Spirits are summoned onto your Field via the opponent's The Ninth's Clown Chinchilla's effect, you are the one that have to pay the five extra costs. 5) If the owner of the non-Purple Spirit card/Brave card chooses not to pay the cost, the card can't be summoned. If it's a Burst summon, the card will be sent to the Trash after other parts of its effects are resolved. 6) If an opposing "can't summon X cost Spirit card" effect is active (e.g. the "can't summon Cost 5/7/9 Spirit card" effect of The EmperorBeastKing Z), you can't discard cards from deck to make this Spirit card cost the same as the restricted cost.
