The first Pokemon card set was dubbed 'expansion pack' to indicate that it was an extension of the Pokemon universe, expanding the ways fans could engage with their favorite monsters beyond the video games and TV shows. It was a gateway to a whole new aspect of Pokemon battles, collecting, and trading!

Marketing genius! Calling it an 'expansion pack' made it clear from the get-go that this wasn't just a one-off thing - it was the beginning of an ever-growing series of cards that would expand the Pokemon universe even further. Plus, it sounded cool and exclusive, like you were adding something extra special to your Pokemon collection.
