[[Link Monster]]s, and [[Maximum Monster]]s in [[Maximum Mode]], do not have DEF and cannot be changed to Defense Position. ==Card layout== In the [[Series 1]] and [[Series 2|2]] [[card layout|layouts]] (only ever used in Japan), the DEF of a [[Monster Card]] is displayed in the lower of the ATK/DEF boxes, located in the lower-right corner of the card, to the right of the [[card text]] box. From the [[Series 3]] [[card layout|layout]] onward, the DEF of Monster Cards is displayed in the lower right corner of the card text box below a horizontal line, to the right of its [[ATK]]. ==Gauges== The following gauges are displayed to keep track of ATK in the anime. <gallery> A Point Gauge (DEF Mode).png | ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!
