Unite sentence (no really, it's not much), followed by a slight rewrite of the TCG section. It makes SM Shining an indented bullet, notes that rarity gets involved, moves attack costs to the Shining mechanic they apply to, and changes Rule Box since that is definitionally part of the game and not a 1 card quirk

 {{main|List of cards featuring Shiny Pokémon}}
-Many cards in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] feature Shiny Pokémon. Most of these cards are regular cards. There are even gimmicks in the TCG that involve Shiny Pokémon. All Pokémon that used such gimmicks were {{TCG|Basic Pokémon}} (even if they were normally Evolution Pokémon) and are generally restricted to 1 per deck.
+Many cards in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] feature Shiny Pokémon. Most of these cards are regular cards. Usually, they have especially high [[Rarity]] compared to cards that do not have Shiny Pokémon, assuming they are not released as a [[Black Star Promo]]. There are also gimmicks in the TCG that involve Shiny Pokémon. All Pokémon that use such gimmicks are {{TCG|Basic Pokémon}} (even if they are normally [[Evolution#In the TCG|Evolution Pokémon]]) and are generally restricted to 1 per deck.
-* {{TCG|Shining Pokémon}}, introduced in the {{TCG|Neo Revelation}} expansion. There may be only 1 Shining Pokémon with the same name in a deck. Later reintroduced in the {{TCG|Shining Legends}} expansion, but no longer with that rule.
+* {{TCG|Shining Pokémon}}, introduced in the {{TCG|Neo Revelation}} expansion. There may be only 1 Shining Pokémon with the same name in a deck. The costs of {{TCG|attack}}s of these cards include {{TCG|Energy}} of multiple types.
-* {{TCG|Pokémon ☆|Pokémon}} {{Star}}, introduced in the {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} expansion. In terms of playability, they're more similar to the later introduced Radiant Pokémon than to Shining Pokémon due to their lack of attacks that require multiple types of {{TCG|Energy}}, except for {{TCG ID|EX Deoxys|Latias ☆|105}}, {{TCG ID|EX Deoxys|Latios ☆|106}}, and {{TCG ID|EX Deoxys|Rayquaza ☆|107}}.
+**Later reintroduced in the {{TCG|Shining Legends}} expansion, but no longer with the rule restricting the number of copies played nor costs including multiple Energy types..
+* {{TCG|Pokémon ☆|Pokémon}} {{Star}}, introduced in the {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} expansion. Only 1 Pokémon {{Star}} is allowed to be in a deck total. This means that no other Pokémon {{Star}} can be in the deck.
 * Dual-type Pokémon cards featured in the {{TCG|Steam Siege}} expansion feature Shiny Pokémon, except for {{TCG ID|Steam Siege|Volcanion-EX|26}}.
-* {{TCG|Radiant Pokémon}}, introduced in the {{TCG|Astral Radiance}} expansion. These are considered to have a {{TCG|Rule Box}} by effects of cards like {{TCG ID|Chilling Reign|Path to the Peak|148}}.
+* {{TCG|Radiant Pokémon}}, introduced in the {{TCG|Astral Radiance}} expansion. They have the Radiant Pokémon rule, contained within a {{TCG|Rule Box}}, which only allows for 1 Radiant Pokémon to be in a deck total. This means that no other Radiant Pokémon can be in the deck.
