Can I get a ruling on this? If Phage phases in, is it treated as entering the battlefield? Inspired by Nickosis.

Nope. Phasing does not trigger entering the battlefield or leaving play effects. Sorry.

For reference, the actual ruling is:

702.24d The phasing event doesn’t actually cause a permanent to
change zones or control, even though it’s treated as though it’s not on
the battlefield and not under its controller’s control while it’s phased
out. Zone-change triggers don’t trigger when a permanent phases in or
out. Counters remain on a permanent while it’s phased out. Effects that
check a phased-in permanent’s history won’t treat the phasing event as
having caused the permanent to leave or enter the battlefield or its
controller’s control.

You could donate Phage then blink it with, say Ghostly flicker.

Well someone had to say mine didn't work and I had to get official rulings posted under it that state " Creatures ETB effects happen". But yeah phasing is treated like they don't exsist for that turn.

if this worked, it would be super silly.
