"Photon" (フォトン Foton) is an archetype of LIGHT-Attribute cards used by Kite Tenjo, Droite and Gauche in Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL. This archetype was first released in Photon Shockwave. Most of the monsters in this archetype emit blue light on their bodies (Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon emits red light) and most are covered with armor or scales.

The goal of a "Photon" Deck is to take control of field, preventing your opponent from doing harm towards you. "Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon" is a good example show due to its Quick Effect - being able to banish itself, even chaining to another card; this gives itself advantages by escaping Traps, such as "Dimensional Prison", etc. Even though its effects allow itself to gain ATK for banishing Xyz Monsters, along with itself, it can be used to bypass other card effects. Another example is "Photon Leo" - though it may be a Level 6, it can be benefiting, as it shuffles cards in your opponent's hand back into the Deck, which may or may not mess up your opponent's plan. Then the low-level monsters are more strategic by using their effects for: stopping the activation of trap, adding different photon Monster Cards to your hand or even multiplying themselves. 1 Photon monster (Photon Kaiser) even gears himself to summon more of himself, maybe to easily summon Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon.

All "Photon" monsters are LIGHT and as such receive benefits from LIGHT support cards.
