"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 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 traps, 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 Photons have high attack power for such low levelled monsters, they normally have a negative effect which limits their usefulness in play, such as Photon Crushers effect to change to defense after attacking, or Sabre Tigers effect to lose 800 attack when you only control a single copy of him, using cards such as Skill Drain and Forbidden chalice can be extremely advantageous for yourself, as well as stopping your opponents from making big plays.
