ひかる闇 ( Shining Darkness )

Shining Darkness is a darkly elegant Japanese Pokémon TCG expansion that delves into the mysterious and powerful side of the Pokémon world. Centered around Darkrai, the embodiment of dreams and shadows, the set captures themes of illusion, fear, and beauty within darkness through hauntingly detailed artwork filled with deep blacks, blues, and ethereal light. Each card radiates an air of mystery and sophistication, portraying Pokémon that thrive in twilight and use the power of darkness with grace and precision. Shining Darkness expands gameplay with new LV.X Pokémon, including Darkrai LV.X, and introduces strategies that emphasize disruption, stealth, and control, rewarding players who excel at timing and foresight. With its moody visuals, mythic tone, and refined sense of tension, Shining Darkness stands as one of the most atmospheric and memorable expansions of the Diamond & Pearl era, symbolizing the elegance, strength, and quiet allure of the shadows that move within the Pokémon world.
