"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 have armored or scaly bodies that emit blue light. The "Photon" archetype is intimately related to the "Galaxy" archetype and distantly somewhat related to the Sparrow Family, Bounzer and Cyber Dragon series.
The goal of a "Photon" Deck is to take control of the field. "Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon" is a good example: its self-banishing Quick Effect allows it to evade Traps like "Dimensional Prison" and bypass other card effects. Another example is "Photon Leo," which can shuffle cards in your opponent's hand back into the Deck. This can be a very disruptive effect in numerous situations. Lower-level Photon monsters have more strategic uses, such as adding different Photon Monster Cards to your hand or even multiplying themselves.
All "Photon" monsters are LIGHT and as such receive benefits from LIGHT support cards.
Because several low-level Photons have incongruously high attack power, they often come equipped with some balancing restriction. For example Photon Crusher's effect is similar to early beatdown favorite Goblin Attack Force, and Photon Sabre Tiger loses 800 attack if it's the only Tiger on your side of the field.
