Why doesn't Dimension Fortress Weapon negate Ryko's effect?!
Dimension Fortress Weapon negates an attack and banishes the attacker.
Because it only negates the attack and banishes the attacker; it does not negate Ryko's Flip Effect.

●Costs can't be paid while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field, if the cost is to send cards from the Deck to the GY. So “Card Trooper” and “Celestia, Lightsworn Angel” can't activate their effects.
●In general, Lightsworn monsters can activate their effects while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field, but cards are not sent from the Deck to the GY afterwards.
●If “Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter” is flipped face-up while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field, you can destroy 1 card with its effect, but no cards are sent from the Deck to the GY after that. “Solar Recharge” can't be activated while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field.
●If “Solar Recharge” is activated and “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is Summoned in a chain, draw 2 cards, but don't send 2 cards from the Deck to the GY after that.
●If a card needs to be sent from the Deck to the GY because of a card combination that renders the usual resolution impossible, that card is still sent to the GY even if “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field.
●Example #1: If “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field and you activate “Conscription”, and pick up a monster that could be Normal Summoned, but your Monster Card Zones are full, the monster is sent to the GY.
●Example #2: The same is true for extra monsters from “Enchanting Fitting Room” that can't be Summoned due to lack of available Monster Card Zones.
●Example #3: “Crystal Seer” is flipped face-up while “Thunder King Rai-Oh” is on the field. “Reasoning” and “Monster Gate” can't be activated while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field. If their effects were activated and “Dimension Fortress Weapon” was Summoned in a chain, their effects are not applied. “Null and Void” can't be activated while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field.
●If “Null and Void” is activated, and “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is Summoned in a chain, add the drawn cards to the hand after both players see them.
●“Destiny Hero – Diamond Dude” can't activate its effect while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field. If its effect is activated and “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is Summoned in a chain, the effect is not applied (don't check the top card of the Deck).
●“Future Fusion” can't be activated while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field. If “Future Fusion” is activated, and “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is Summoned in a chain, the effect of “Future Fusion” is not applied, no monsters are sent to the GY, no Fusion Monster is Special Summoned, and “Future Fusion” remains on the field meaninglessly.
●If “Magical Merchant” is flipped face-up while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field, its effect is not applied.
●If “Chain Destruction” is activated while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field, copies of the monster in the player’s hand are destroyed, but not copies in their Deck.
●If “Spell Vanishing” is activated while “Dimension Fortress Weapon” is on the field, check the opponent’s hand and Deck, and send copies of the Spell Card in their hand to the GY, but not the copies from their Deck.
