'''Shining Pokémon''' are a type of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} found in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] that depict the [[Shiny Pokémon|alternate color]] variation of a Pokémon. All of them are [[Basic Pokémon]]. | '''Shining Pokémon''' are a type of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} found in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] that depict the [[Shiny Pokémon|alternate color]] variation of a Pokémon.

First introduced in {{TCG|Neo Revelation}}, the Shining Pokémon created quite a stir in the TCG community, both for their rarity and use of multiple Energy-type attacks. They were also bound by a special rule that allowed only 1 Shining Pokémon in a deck. | First introduced in {{TCG|Neo Revelation}}, the Shining Pokémon created quite a stir in the TCG community, both for their rarity and use of multiple {{TCG|Energy card|Energy}}-{{TCG|type}} attacks.

Perhaps chosen because of their appearances in the [[Pokémon anime]] and {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, {{p|Magikarp}} and {{p|Gyarados}} were the first Shining Pokémon featured in the TCG, included in Neo Revelation as secret cards. When released in Japan, their prices skyrocketed overseas, with collectors paying $300+ for them each. The odds of finding them in a booster pack were stated as 300:1, reflecting the chances of encountering a Shining Pokémon in the games. Their prices came down with the release of the set in English, but the cards remained difficult to obtain. | Perhaps chosen because of their appearances in the [[Pokémon anime]] and {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, {{p|Magikarp}} and {{p|Gyarados}} were the first Shining Pokémon featured in the TCG, included in Neo Revelation as secret cards.

The concept of Shining Pokémon was carried over to the e-Series in the form of {{TCG|Crystal Pokémon}} in the {{TCG|Aquapolis}} and {{TCG|Skyridge}} Expansions, although actual alternate color Pokémon would not be seen in the TCG again until {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} in the form of {{TCG|Pokémon ☆|Pokémon}} {{Star}}. | The concept of Shining Pokémon was carried over to the e-Series in the form of {{TCG|Crystal Pokémon}} in the {{TCG|Aquapolis}} and {{TCG|Skyridge}} Expansions, although actual alternate color Pokémon would not be seen in the TCG again until {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} in the form of {{TCG|Pokémon ☆|Pokémon}} {{Star}}. | ||
Shining Pokémon returned in the {{TCG|Shining Legends}} subset of the Sun & Moon series. No longer restricted to the 1 per deck rule, they featured a reflective foil layer applied to the depicted Pokémon, similar to the ones released in Neo Destiny, but didn't require multiple Energy types for their attack costs. The subset also introduced a new rarity symbol for these Shining Pokémon, consisting of a foil, blue and yellow colored, eight-pointed star. All the Shining Pokémon included in this set were either [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]] or [[Mythical Pokémon]]. | |||
