Advent Cards (Kamen Rider Ryuki)
The gimmick for Ryuki were known as Advent Cards. They are stored inside of the Advent Decks, which are the means for a Rider to transform. The cards can activate special abilities and weapons, like for example, the Strike Vent card can give a Ryuki a gauntlet resembling Dragreder, or the Copy Vent can give Raia the ability to copy someones' weapon. There are also Seal & Contract Cards which the Seal Card can seal away a Mirror Monster, or the Contract Card can form a Contract with a Beast, making you a Rider. The Advent Card can have the Rider's Contract Beast attack the enemy. The Final Vent Card can activate the Rider's finisher. There are three Survive Cards: Rekka (left wing), Shippu (right wing), and Mugen (center). Although the Mugen card was never used, Rekka was in the possession of Ryuki and Shippu was in Knight's hands. The two cards can activate Survive Mode (aka the Final Forms). The Alternatives have their own versions of Advent Cards.

Rouze Cards (Kamen Rider Blade)
Much like Ryuki, Kamen Rider Blade also used cards. However, these Cards were different. They are created by sealing an Undead, the villains of the show. Many of them are organized. To know whose cards they are, they have a symbol on the top left and bottom right corners. Blade's is Spade, Garren is Diamond, Chalice is Heart, and Leangle is Clover. Category Ace are transforming cards, which the Riders can use to transform into their respective suits. Categories 2-10 are cards that can be scanned on a Rider's Rouzer to activate special abilities, attacks, and finishers. Categories Jack and Queen are used to access Jack Form and Category King and Queen can be used to activate Blade's ultimate form, King Form. There are many other Cards that don't fit in any organization, like the Joker Card, which is used for the Joker Undead, or the Wild Card, which is a fusion of all of Chalice's cards, or the Vanity Card, which was used in the movie, which it needs to contain a human soul for it to be fully active. The Ace Riders had their own cards as well, like Change Keroberos to transform, and a Mighty card, which can be used for an Ace Rider's final attack.

Rider Cards (Kamen Rider Decade)
In the 10th Anniversary of the Heisei Era, Kamen Rider Decade, Decade used the Rider Cards, which had powers from the past 9 Heisei Riders. If inserted into Tsukasa's Decadriver, he can transform into the Rider the card represents. In Kaito's Diendriver, he can summon the Rider the card represents, as oppose to transforming. The KamenRide Cards are the means to transform or summon a Rider. The FormRide Cards are used where Decade can turn into other forms of the previous Riders, like for example, Kuuga's Dragon Form. The AttackRide Cards can be used to activate special abilities and attacks in battle. Both Decade and Diend can use them. The FinalForm Ride Cards are used to transform the previous Rider into a special weapon or vehicle. In All Riders vs. Dai-Shocker, Diend uses a FinalForm Ride card on Decade, turning him into a colossal-sized of his Decadriver. In Movie War 2010, Decade uses another FinalForm Ride card to split Kamen Rider Double into two separate bodies, JokerJoker and CycloneCyclone. FinalAttack Ride Cards can activate a finisher to defeat an enemy. The FinalKamen Ride Cards are cards represent the Final Forms of all the Riders before Decade.
