Q1: Does a digivolution requirement that digivolves from a Tamer mean that the Tamer that will become a digivolution card is treated as a Digimon when it digivolves?
No, it digivolves from the Tamer as-is. It isn't treated as a Digimon that digivolves, therefore "when a Digimon would digivolve" effects and "when a Digimon digivolves" effects don't trigger. In addition, this digivolution requirement can be used to digivolve a Tamer even if a "Digimon can't digivolve" effect activates.
Q2: Is a digivolution bonus draw performed even when a Tamer digivolves?
Yes, you perform a digivolution bonus draw. A digivolution bonus draw is performed for any kind of digivolution.
Q3: If this card digivolves from a Tamer that was played this turn, can it attack in the same turn?
No, it can't. Even if a card digivolves from a card that was placed on the field in the same turn, it can't attack during that turn. It can only attack in the turns after it's played.
Q4: Is a Tamer card placed under a Digimon considered a digivolution card?
Yes, it is. If the Digimon leaves the field, that Tamer is trashed like normal digivolution cards.
Q5: Does a Digimon gain the security effects in the lower text of a Tamer card in its digivolution cards?
No, it does not.
Q6: Does a Digimon gain the inherited effects in the lower text of a Tamer card in its digivolution cards?
Yes, it does.
