+Light Pokémon were introduced in the {{TCG|Neo Destiny}} expansion, which as the title suggests, revolves around the potential path or "destiny" a Pokémon can follow depending on how it is brought up by their {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Similar to their Dark Pokémon counterparts, Light Pokémon are always evolved Pokémon. They tend to have slightly higher HP values compared to those of normal Pokémon, and their attacks often provide support effects that can aid either player. As the word "Light" is part of the card's name, one can include up to 4 of each the regular and Light versions of the same species in the same deck.
-Light Pokémon have a white and gold artwork window, Evolution box and Pokédex box, as opposed to the regular gold. The artwork in many cases depicts the Pokémon seemingly content with itself or in a serene environment. They tend to have higher HPs compared to those of normal Pokémon and attacks that often aid other Pokémon in play, likely due to the caring nature of the Trainer.
+Although Dark Pokémon returned in the EX Series, Light Pokémon remained absent from the TCG until {{TCG ID|SWSH Promo|Light Toxtricity|137}} was printed as one of the {{TCG|SWSH Black Star Promos}} for the [[Pokémon 25th Anniversary]].
+Aesthetically, the artwork on Light Pokémon cards feature bright highlights and depict serene environments. They also have a white and gold artwork window, Evolution box and Pokédex box, as opposed to the regular gold.
