Its effects make it an absolute beast during the Battle Phase. If you can consistently recur it (if you even need to, though I'm not aware of any methods in which you can), then it can be quite scary as Pendulum Monsters are usually not that powerful in stats or battle effects.

 

Otherwise it serves little utility. Recycling a Red Dragon Archfiend monster for another Synchro Summon does not strike me as particularly useful (I could be wrong), the effect more focused on getting Goetia into the Extra Deck so it can be Pendulum Summoned again. I believe you designed this to limit its recurring ability by requiring an existing Red Dragon Archfiend monster in your Graveyard to enable its every Pendulum Summon? As after all, its placement in the Pendulum Zone after destruction is compulsory. If so, like I had said, Pendulum Summoning Level 8 sounds like a trek anyway, so. I can't really say though since Red Dragon Archfiend has no other Pendulum support.

 

Also with 3000 ATK, I'm wondering why it even needs protection from destruction by battle. It would probably do better with protection from destruction by card effects instead.

 

It has a Pendulum Scale of over 7/7 (or 8/8, now that Dragonpit Magician exists), but since it's an Extra Deck monster I think that in itself is a limitation, so it's fine that it doesn't have any negative effects.

Thank you for the heads-up and the Pendulum Effect was now to recycle fallen RDA Synchros from the Graveyard and I did create a partner for it though it has yet to be posted on here.
