Normal Monsters, colored yellow, are primarily used to protect your Life Points from Direct Damage, and to offer high ATK for use against your opponent, in exchange for having no effect. They usually possess basic stats; ATK, DEF, Level, Attribute, Type, and more often than not, one value is sacrificed to benefit another. High ATK and low DEF Normal Monsters are often associated with Beatdown Decks. Normal Monsters are popularly called Vanilla.
Though they do not have inherent effects, there are often Spell, Trap or Monster effects associated with specific Normal Monsters. For instance, Dark Magic Attack can only be used with Dark Magician, and X-Head Cannon can have a number of Union Monsters equipped to it. Normal Monsters have also received some very powerful support cards for their general use, such as Birthright, Ancient Rules, Justi-Break and Dark Factory of Mass Production. In general, Normal Monsters have many more legal options for being summoned back onto the field from the Graveyard than Effect Monsters (a property that Gemini Monsters take advantage of).
The card text (or flavor text) on these cards is for illustrative purposes only, and has no effect on gameplay, since these cards have no effects.
