If Debris Dragon revives a monster like Evil Thorn/Lonefire/Rescue Cat, do their effects resolve?!
Debris Dragon Special Summons a monster whose effects would activate on the field.
No. Debris Dragon negates effects that activate on the field, so those effects resolve negated unless the monster leaves the field and returns as a new object.
