Set Overview

Base Set 2 is an early English Pokémon TCG expansion released February 24, 2000, featuring a reprint-style card pool that combines selections from Base Set and Jungle (with a few updates like the Base Set 2 set symbol and layout styling).

In Japanese, it does not correspond to a single standalone set, since it was created as an English-exclusive compilation rather than a direct Japanese release.
