Trivia

• Wizards of the Coast once again expanded the set by adding non-holographic and holographic versions of the rare cards. However, two of the holographic cards in the Japanese set (Butterfree and Beedrill) were released as non-holographic cards only in the English set.
• The only two non-holographic rare cards that were not duplicates were Espeon and Umbreon.
• As with Neo 1 in Japan, Neo 2 had a 9 card promotional set - five of those (Espeon, Umbreon, Unown E, Unown N, and Unown O) were added to the English set. Two became Promotional cards (reverse-holographic Pichu and Entei), and one was never released in English (a reverse-holographic Charizard). Eevee, a reprint of the card in the expansion, also was not released in English. The characters represented by the three Unown cards spell out "NEO".
• Dark Raichu made its official Japanese debut in Neo 2 (as a super rare); it was first produced as a Wizards of the Coast exclusive card back in Team Rocket.
