Light vs Dark was a special Halloween event first introduced in 2012. The purpose of the challenge was to become a Keeper of the Light or a Master of the Dark and help your side gain the most total points by battling with or against Shiny or Dark Pokémon.

Light vs Dark reappeared for Halloween 2013, but was not brought back in later years due to balancing issues. The event ran from October 24th to October 31st during 2012, while the 2013 event went on from October 28th till November 4th.

How It Worked

Points were awarded to a trainer every time they battled using a Shiny or Dark Pokémon. Points were also awarded every time they battled against a Shiny or Dark Pokémon. Light points were gained by using a Shiny Pokémon or defeating a Dark Pokémon, whereas Dark Points were gained by using a Dark Pokémon or defeating a Shiny Pokémon. Bonus points were obtained upon battling a Pokémon of the opposing type (Shiny vs. Dark or Dark vs. Shiny) and when you defeated Pokémon that were at a higher level than you. Both Light and Dark points could be gained over the week, but only one of the two per battle. The entire battle had to have been completed to gain the points. No points were received for battling Shiny vs. Shiny or Dark vs. Dark.

Prizes

Light or Dark "Membership" was based on whether you had collected more Light points or more Dark points. If you had an equal number, you would not receive a prize.
