Q: Right Arm of the Forbidden One and Right Leg of the Forbidden One are both in my hand. If my copy of The Legendary Exodia Incarnate is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, and I activate its last effect, do I have to reveal both Right Arm of the Forbidden One and Right Leg of the Forbidden One?
A: When you activate this effect of The Legendary Exodia Incarnate, you must reveal 1 or more “Forbidden One” monsters in your hand, up to any number.

Q: Left Arm of the Forbidden One, Left Leg of the Forbidden One, and Exodia the Forbidden One are in my hand. While I have only 2 cards left in my Deck, if my copy of The Legendary Exodia Incarnate is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, and I activate its last effect, can I reveal all 3 “Forbidden One” monsters in my hand?
A: If you activate the effect of The Legendary Exodia Incarnate and reveal more than 1 “Forbidden One” card to your opponent, you can reveal any number of them. However, in this scenario, because you only have 2 cards left in your Deck, you cannot draw 3 cards. You can either reveal 2 “Forbidden One” cards in your hand to draw 2 cards, or reveal 1 of them to draw just 1 card.
