Starting off merchandise for the Generation II Pokémon Trading Card Game was the Neo Series. This Series did not feature very much English merchandise at the time, with only booster boxes and Theme Decks being released for the four Neo expansions: Neo Genesis, Neo Discovery, Neo Revelation, and Neo Discovery. Neo Revelation is one of two English expansions in the history of the TCG to not have Theme Decks released alongside it. Below is a chronological list of all the items released during the Neo Series of the Trading Card Game.
Neo Genesis Theme Decks
Released on December 16, 2000, Neo Genesis brought with it a pair of Theme Decks, featuring the Dragon Pokémon Kingdra and the Cottonweed Pokémon Jumpluff. Kingdra's Theme Deck, Cold Fusion, features Water-type and Lightning-type Pokémon while Jumpluff's Hotfoot Theme Deck features Grass-type and Fire-type Pokémon. Each Theme Deck came packaged with a metal coin as well as a rulebook, damage counters, and card list.

Dark features Fire-type and Psychic-type Pokémon, with Typhlosion on the front. Light features Azumarill's Water-type in addition to the Fighting-type. These Theme Decks also include a metal coin, a rulebook, damage counters, and card list.
