Wrong. Reflected damage due to attacking a monster with higher ATK/DEF than the attacking monster's ATK still counts as battle damage. Stone Statue of the Aztecs having the effect to "Double any battle damage your opponent takes when they attack this monster" is proof of this.

Yata-Garasu inflicting battle damage through reflected damage (somehow) like this would still trigger its effect to skip the draw phase of the opponent's next turn, since it doesn't specify that it has to inflict damage by attacking. That being said, I'm 99% sure that doing this and having Yata peck the opponent on your own turn doesn't cause the two to stack, so the opponent would still only skip one draw phase.

Rip. Was hoping it would maybe cause two skips lol. I am planning on including Yata-Garasu with Shinobird Power Spot to increase advantage. In addition, I would throw in Moon Mirror Shield which would allow Yata to beat over everything. Either Yata would stay on the field equipped with MMS, or when it bounces back to the hand I can just get MMS back. Gimmicky but in the ritual event I think it will be fun. (For me)
