Ability

Ability (のうりょく Nōryoku) is a classification of Monster Cards. Abilities are listed in the same line as a monster's Type, separated by a slash (but are not the only classification that can be listed this way). The Japanese rulebook lists only Toon, Spirit, Union, Gemini, and Flip as possible Abilities; other classifications, such as Normal, Effect, Pendulum, Tuner, and Special Summon, are not Abilities.

Abilities have only been used on Effect Monster Cards, and no card has been printed with multiple abilities. Gemini monsters are Effect Monster Cards, but treat themselves as Normal Monsters under certain circumstances. No Extra Deck monsters, Pendulum Monsters, or Ritual Monsters have abilities. However, the card "Comic Hand" can treat any monster as a Toon monster, regardless of its card type or if it has another ability.
