'''LIGHT''' ({{Ruby|光|ひかり}} ''Hikari'') monsters are the historic opposites of [[DARK]] Monsters. "[[Blue-Eyes White Dragon]]", the components of "[[XYZ-Dragon Cannon]]", and monsters such as "[[D.D. Warrior Lady]]", and "[[Honest]]", are LIGHT monsters. LIGHT monsters are represented often by [[Fairy]], [[Spellcaster]], [[Thunder]], [[Machine]] and  [[Warrior]]-[[Type]].

'''LIGHT''' ({{Ruby|光|ひかり}} ''Hikari'') is an [[Attribute]] in ''Yu-Gi-Oh!''.
  
Some LIGHT cards focus on overwhelming offensive power, such as the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" and the fusion forms of "[[Cyber Dragon]]", but others focus on positively reinforcing the player instead of directly damaging the opponent, such as by increasing their [[Life Points]] or allowing the player to draw extra cards from their [[Main Deck|Deck]]. LIGHT monsters will in general either be highly offensive or highly defensive with little middle ground. In Decks themed around multiple [[Attribute]]s, the trump card of the set will often be LIGHT, such as "[[Rainbow Dragon]]" for the "[[Crystal Beast]]s", "[[Elemental HERO Shining Flare Wingman]]", and "[[Elemental HERO Neos]]" in "[[Elemental HERO]]" builds, and so on. Some LIGHT monsters almost always reveal your strategy due to the follow up that would happen if the strategy succeeds in being used.

==Overview==
 +
LIGHT monsters are commonly thematically associated with conceptual themes of virtue, power, and divinity, and physical themes of energy and radiance. The Monster [[Type]]s typically associated with LIGHT are [[Fairy]], [[Spellcaster]], [[Thunder]], [[Machine]] and [[Warrior]].
  
Notably, the Attribute of the Monsters do not necessarily indicate any sense of morality; such monsters as the [[Fabled]], [[Worms]], and [[Arcana Force]] are antagonistic beings according to card lore or the [[anime]], which also features an [[The Light of Destruction|evil entity]] of LIGHT. That is not to say there are not some LIGHT Archetypes, however, that closer represent good or heroism, such as "[[Constellar]]", "[[Lightsworn]]", "[[Utopia (archetype)|Utopia]]", and "[[Noble Knight]]".

Although not exclusively, almost all monsters that appear to have electric-based powers and which are not Thunder-Type are LIGHT Attribute. Examples include "[[Super Conductor Tyranno]]", one of only two LIGHT Dinosaur-Type monsters in the game; "[[Voltic Kong]]"; "[[Elemental HERO Thunder Giant]]"; "[[Gilford the Lightning]]" and "[[Number 91: Thunder Spark Dragon]]".
+
In some card effects (e.g. "[[Hip Hoshiningen]]") and in certain video games, the LIGHT Attribute is positioned as the opposite of the [[DARK]] Attribute.
  
LIGHT-based [[archetype]]s include: "[[Silent Swordsman]], "[[Silent Magician]], "[[Arcana Force]]", "[[Batteryman]]", "[[Fabled]]", "[[Hieratic]]", "[[Satellarknight]]", "[[Star Seraph]]", "[[Lightray]]", "[[Lightsworn]]", "[[Noble Knight]]" "[[Ojama]]", "[[Photon]]", "[[Galaxy]]", "[[Constellar]]", "[[Vylon]]", "[[Bujin]]", "[[Watt]]",  "[[Worms]]" , "[[The Agent]]", "[[Utopia (archetype)|Utopia]]", "[[Artifact]]", and "[[PSYFrame]]".

LIGHT (ひかり Hikari) is an Attribute in Yu-Gi-Oh!.

Overview[edit]

LIGHT monsters are commonly thematically associated with conceptual themes of virtue, power, and divinity, and physical themes of energy and radiance. The Monster Types typically associated with LIGHT are Fairy, Spellcaster, Thunder, Machine and Warrior.

In terms of card effects, LIGHT monsters are typically either highly offensive or highly defensive, with little middle ground. In anime Decks themed around multiple Attributes, the trump card of the set will often be LIGHT, such as "Rainbow Dragon" for the "Crystal Beasts", "Elemental HERO Shining Flare Wingman", and "Elemental HERO Neos" in "Elemental HERO" builds, and so on.

In some card effects (e.g. "Hip Hoshiningen") and in certain video games, the LIGHT Attribute is positioned as the opposite of the DARK Attribute.
