<p>A trap monster is only treated as a monster whilst it occupys a monster zone. When it's sent to the graveyard it is reverted back to being treated as a trap.</p>

<p>Some Phantom Knight's Card have an Effect that says you can special summon it as a monster (This card is not treated as a trap). When it is destroyed, is it a monster or trap in the GY? (For example, could I use Monster Reborn on it?)</p>

When a Phantom Knight's Trap is Special Summoned back as a monster, and then is sent to the GY, is it still treated as a monster?
