 '''Ancient Traits''' are special effects given to certain Pokémon, starting in {{TCG|Primal Clash}}. They are not {{TCG|Pokémon Power|Abilities}}, and as such, effects that would prevent Abilities from activating (such as {{TCG ID|Dragons Exalted|Garbodor|54}}'s Garbotoxin or {{TCG ID|Phantom Forces|Wobbuffet|36}}'s Bide Barricade) do not apply to them.
-All Ancient Trait cards (except for Pokémon-EX with Ancient Trait) have artwork that differs from normal cards. The artwork takes up the top 3/4 of the card; it then fades into the bottom 1/4, which is coloured depending on the Pokémon's type. (For example, an Entei card would have its bottom 1/4 coloured red.)

The artwork takes up the top 3/4 of the card; it then fades into the bottom 1/4, which is colored depending on the Pokémon's type. (For example, an Entei card would have its bottom 1/4 colored red.) They are commonly referred to as "half art cards" for this reason.
 The Ancient Trait bar and text is placed at the top of the card, beneath the Pokémon's name. Due to the artwork taking up most of the space available, the basic information of the Pokémon (Pokédex number, species, height and weight) is not shown.
