Inzektor Monsters activate if the card they are Equipped to is sent to the graveyard by a Card effect , like the self Hornet effect while treated as Equip, Or destroyed by Mystical Space Typhoon.for these reasons Game Mechanic Actions won't trigger the Equipped Effects and\or the Monsters effect: Game Mechanic actions are monster being destroyed by battle, or the monster is used as an Xyz Material and similars. For all these explanations the best cards to trigger Inzektors are Inzektor Hornet and Inzektor Ladybug, since both of them have an effect while treated as Equip Spell that send them to the graveyard, trigging the effect of the monster they were equipped to.Examples Of Times you CAN and CANNOT use Inzektor Effects:
If an "Inzektor Dragonfly" equipped with "Inzektor Giga-Mantis" is destroyed in battle by an opponent's monster or by the effect of "Raigeki Break", it is not considered that "Inzektor Giga-Mantis" was equipped to a monster when sent from the field to the Graveyard, so its effect cannot be activated.
In the case in which "Inzektor Giga-Mantis" is equipped to "Inzektor Dragonfly" and both are destroyed simultaneously by the effect of "Black Rose Dragon", the effect of "Inzektor Giga-Mantis" can be activated. However, the effect of "Inzektor Dragonfly" cannot be activated
If an "Inzektor Dragonfly" equipped with "Inzektor Giga-Mantis" is destroyed in battle by an opponent's monster or by the effect of "Raigeki Break", it is not considered that "Inzektor Giga-Mantis" was equipped to a monster when sent from the field to the Graveyard, so its effect cannot be activated.
An "Inzektor Giga-Mantis" that equipped itself to "Inzektor Dragonfly" by its own effect is not sent to the Graveyard if "Inzektor Dragonfly" is targeted by "Forbidden Chalice".
If "Inzektor Dragonfly" has equipped itself with "Inzektor Hornet", and "Fiendish Chain" is activated, the effect to equip itself with "Inzektor" monsters is negated, and "Inzektor Hornet" can no longer be treated as an Equip Spell Card. Therefore, "Inzektor Hornet" is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard.
