Official rulings

3 rulings · in English, source Scryfall

If another effect would prevent damage from being dealt to Phytohydra or replace it with something else, Phytohydra's controller chooses which effect to apply first.

2005-10-01 · Wizards of the Coast

If Phytohydra blocks or is blocked by a creature with first strike or double strike, Phytohydra will get the counters during the first-strike combat damage step before it deals its own combat damage during the second combat damage step.

2005-10-01 · Wizards of the Coast

Phytohydra's ability doesn't prevent damage. Damage that can't be prevented will still be replaced by +1/+1 counters being put on Phytohydra.
