This was to counter the fact that both the {{special|Darkness Energy|old Darkness Energy}} and the {{special|Metal Energy|old Metal Energy}}, originally released in {{TCG|Neo Genesis}}, were classified as {{TCG|Special Energy card}}s, meaning that only four copies of them were allowed in a legal deck. Combined with their rarity, many players had to go to great lengths to have a deck that even attempted to mix in a few Darkness-types. With the release of the Basic Energy version of Darkness Energy, an unlimited amount are now allowed in a deck, though there is now no specific advantage to using them, unlike their Special counterparts. | ||
