The XY Series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game starts off the collection of TCG merchandise centered around Pokémon X and Y, Generation VI, and the Kalos region. Starting in October 2013, a number of products, such as Collector's Tins and Value Boxes, are available for purchasing, containing various promotional cards, booster packs, and other merchandise. Below is a chronological list of all the items released during the XY Series of the Trading Card Game.
Collector's Pin Three Pack Blisters
The first product of the XY Series is the Collector's Pin Three Pack Blisters--three different Three Pack Blisters featuring each of the three Kalos region starter Pokémon: Chespin, Fennekin, and Froakie. Releasing October 12, 2013, the same day as Pokémon X and Y, each Blister Pack contains 1 booster pack from the three Black & White Series expansions centered around Team Plasma (Plasma Storm, Plasma Freeze, and Plasma Blast). Each Blister also contains a commemorative collector's pin featuring one of the three starters.

Available starting in December 2013 were the Kalos Starter Collections. These collections were yet another option available to those looking for the Kalos Starter Set. Included in each Kalos Starter Collection is the 60 card Chespin Deck, Fennekin Deck, or Froakie Deck, a card checklist for the Kalos Starter Set, a coin featuring one of the three Kalos starter Pokémon, a 2-player playmat and rulesheet, 2 Black & White Series booster packs, a code card that unlocks the respective deck online, as well as one of the three Collector's Pins available in the Template:Merch. However, this variation of the Kalos Starter Set merchandise only has each Stage 2 Pokémon as a Sheen Holofoil card, instead of the entire evolutionary family of the Kalos starter Pokémon.
