- The majority of these cards could not be found in the main Expansion. Those that were not were added to the main set it was translated into English.
- Unlike previous Half Decks, which have their own numbering system and symbol, these decks all have a collective numbering system, hence they are listed together rather than separately. The set symbol for these Half Decks was used in the English main set.
- The cards contained in each deck were random (apart from the Pokémon depicted on the deck and its evolution stages), a trend used in Japan with Decks from the first Expansion in a new Generation. Generation III was the only Generation not to feature a Starter Deck in its first Expansion (ADV 1: Advanced Adventure), instead these Half Decks being the ones to feature the innovation.
Like others, the Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise Half Decks also include a rulebook, damage counters, status counters and custom coin ((Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle respectively).
