You need to take the damage to add the monster to the hand. You couldn't use a card like Energy-Absorbing Monolith or Barrel Behind the Door to avoid it while getting a card back either.
It should be an effect monster at least.

Not sure why it makes a difference either way. The difference is minimal, and IMO, the back elf actually looks worse in the OCG. (The front one's only better because the edit to the TCG one was fairly lazy.)
