The master set counts 89 Normal and 24 Holofoil. No card comes in more than one of them, so the master set is the same size as the full set.

Darkness, and to Light... develops the idea of Pokémon shaped by their Trainers through contrasting Light and Dark forms. Dark Pokémon return with a more serious tone, while Light Pokémon are presented as calm, loyal, or protective. Cards such as Dark Espeon, Dark Gengar, Light Arcanine, and Light Dragonite give familiar species new personalities and make the expansion feel like a study of how training can influence a Pokémon’s nature.

The set is also famous for its large group of Shining Pokémon. Shining Charizard, Shining Mewtwo, Shining Tyranitar, and several others form one of the most desirable subsets of the original era, with reflective artwork that emphasizes the Pokémon themselves. With a large checklist, a clear moral contrast, and some of the era’s most ambitious chase cards, it serves as a dramatic conclusion to the Neo series and remains a centrepiece for collectors of early Johto cards. It became the primary Japanese counterpart to the English *Neo Destiny*, although numbering and a small number of cards differ.
