I can't seem to find any rulings on this anywhere, and I know solemn wishes only activates once with Pot of Greed, or Graceful Charity for instance, but what if you draw a normal monster with Heart of the Underdog down? Would Solemn Wishes activate only the first time, or would it activate every time that you activate Heart of the Underdog's effect? Meaning basically if you got to draw 4 cards in one turn using HotU, would you just gain 500 LP or 2000 LP?

Each Time you "Draw" a Normal Monster, you activate Heart of the Underdogs effect. For each event, it would be a new instance of draw.
Pot of Greed specifically tells you to draw 2 cards, that's why its one instance. The key word here is "activate". You would only get credit for one boost since you only activate Solemn Wishes once.
Heart of the Underdog activates again if you draw and show another Normal Monster, so you would then "Activate and Draw" another card.

Yes, because they are completely separate draws, with each one (assuming it's another normal monster) retriggering the effect to trigger another separate drawing effect.

That's why I emphasized "Draw" and stated that it would be a new instance.
A new instance means a new draw that is separate, and not like the draw from Pot of Greed.

I didn't mean to 'offend' you or step on your toes..lol. To me, your answer wasn't immediately clear. CraniumX seemed to understand it well enough. I simply wanted to try to help and make it a bit more clear for others like me.
It's kind of like this...There's more than one way to answer every question..
e.g.
Q. Is this your signature?
A1. The socio-economic and political values are in direct cohesion with what has been facilitated.
A2. Yes.
They both answer the question. They both mean the same thing. One is just a bit more clear...lol.

I'm not offended. My answer was describing the difference between using
Pot of Greed and Solemn Wishes
Heart of the Underdog and Solemn Wishes
You are only going to get 500 with the activation of Pot of Greed for drawing 2 cards.
With Heart of the Underdog, you would get 500 for drawing a card (Solemn Wishes), if it is a Normal Monster, you show to opponent which activates HotU, and draw again, which would be a "new" instance of drawing and another 500 points.
Sometimes, the person asking the question understands the answer more because it is in sync with their thought pattern at the time of the question being asked.

Yeah, it's always in sync with me, seeing as it's been my favorite card since it was released. I've made quite a few decks with it that can win a good amount of time, but they never seem to dominate like I keep hoping. I'm never one to follow the "norm" though anyway.
I just like this combo for swarm possibilities with Ultimate Offering, but of course there you have 3 continuous cards, which can sometimes be a problem. Any way you look at it though, extra life helps.
