When Princess Yue returns to the battlefield as a land named Moon, she is no longer a creature. That's rough, buddy.

Wizards of the Coast 2 Oct 2025

You cannot have multiple legendary permanents with the same name on the battlefield at the same time. However, Princess Yue's name becomes Moon when she returns to the battlefield as a land.
