Trivia

• Neo Genesis marked the first set to contain some of the new Johto Pokémon found in Pokémon Gold and Silver, although a handful of others had been released prior as promotional cards. Along with this release came two new card types; Darkness and Metal.
• Other new cards added were Baby Pokémon and Poké Tools, which were Trainer Card items that could be permanently attatched to Pokémon in play - referring to Generation II's new feature that allowed trainers to equip their Pokémon with held items.
• There was a 9 card promo set released in Japan before Neo 1 was released featuring the Johto Starter Pokémon and their evolutions. For the English release, Wizards of the Coast added the 9 promo cards and 6 Energy Cards to the set, increasing it to 111 cards.
• One art change in this set was the Trainer Card Moo-Moo Milk. The Japanese version features a Sentret suckling at a Miltank's udders, and was considered inappropriate for children for its English release.
• Taking the term Neo literally, the card layout also changed slightly, with updated stat, evolution and weakness/resistance graphics and the use of smaller black HP text (similar to that of Japanese cards) instead of red text.
• Some collectors mistook the expansion's double star symbol as an indication of high rarity. The same mistake was also made on the darkness-type Pokémon, whose rarity symbols were white (white stars in Japanese sets indicating super rarity).
