Does this card’s ＜Start Your Turn＞ effect activate even when my opponent’s security stack is empty?
Yes, it does. While there are no cards in your opponent’s security stack to trash, you still perform the part of the effect that reads, “Trash the top card of this Digimon.”

Does this card’s ＜When Digivolving＞ effect let me place Digi-Egg cards from my opponent's trash at the bottom of their deck?
Digi-Egg cards in your opponent’s trash can be chosen as part of the effect, but they’re returned to the bottom of your opponent’s Digi-Egg deck instead of their normal deck.

If there are 2 cards with [Mega] in their traits in this Digimon’s digivolution cards, do I get to place 20 cards from my opponent’s trash at the bottom of their deck with this card's ＜When Digivolving＞ effect?
No. Even if you have multiple cards with [Mega] in their traits, this effect will only place 10 cards from your opponent's trash at the bottom of their deck.

Does this card's ＜Start Your Turn＞ effect activate when this card has no digivolution cards?
No. When there are no digivolution cards, you can't perform "trash the top card of this Digimon," so it doesn't activate.

My turn starts when I have this card with [BT9-083]/[Omnimon: Merciful Mode] as its top digivolution card. If I use this card's ＜Start Your Turn＞ effect to trash this card, then activate the ＜Start Your Turn＞ effect on the [BT9-083]/[Omnimon: Merciful Mode] that was a digivolution card, can I trash a total of 2 cards from my opponent's security stack?
No. The ＜Start Your Turn＞ effect on the [BT9-083]/[Omnimon: Merciful Mode] that was a digivolution card isn't yet in a state where it can activate at the start of your turn, therefore it doesn't trigger.
