Chaotic is an originally Danish trading card game that expanded to an online game in America and is also the name of the television program on 4Kids TV (Fox affiliates, nationwide) and on Toon Disney's Jetix that is based on the game. It was brought over to the United States from Denmark by Bryan C. Gannon and Chaotic USA Entertainment Group, and produced by Chaotic USA Entertainment Group,4Kids Productions and Bardel Entertainment. The trading card game came out October 24, 2007 in the U.S. and Canada (the original launch date of May 16th has been pushed back to June 24th then to October to ensure the best user experience possible)"[1]. Viewers will be able to upload their own card collection and trade online at www.chaoticgame.com. Codes for use in the online version of the game are found in commercials for the series. Also, show codes can be put in at www.chaoticgame.com. The card game has been held back yet again until October, as confirmed at the Chaotic booth of FanExpo 2007. An update was recently made on Chaoticgame.com

Chaotic started out as a trading card game known as "Grolls and Gorks"[1] and an idea for a cartoon series of the same name co-authored by Merlin P. Mann, co-author of the Taynikma graphic novels, in December 2000, to be produced by Solit Entertainment. Although, the name of the manuscript was changed to Chaotic in early 2001 assuming that it was submitted [2].But before a single episode was even made, Dracco Company Ltd. bought the rights to Chaotic from Solit Entertainment. In the original storyline, it featured Tom Majors and Kaz Kalinkas, only that they were enemies, instead of friends as in the 4kids animated series. Dracco Company Ltd. with Apex Marketing[3] then created the online version of the game and established the basic universe of Chaotic. In September of 2003 trading card Executive Bryan C. Gannon signed a world wide Licensing and Distribution agreement with Henrik Andersen and his brother Jacob at Dracco to bring the Chaotic game to North America and to the world. Gannon created Chaotic USA Entertainment Group and licensed the patented technology from Cornerstone Patent Technologies, LLC to bring the property up to the standards required for a global brand. He teamed with John Milito and in 2006, 4Kids Entertainment signed a Joint Marketing Agreement with Chaotic USA Entertainment to produce the Cartoon and bring the property to market, both on TV and for licensed products. When 4kids Entertainment teamed with Chaotic USA,the work of CUSA was continued and included many additional improvements. The original cards were redesigned (and some renamed) along with the online game platform to give it a more mature look as well as the creation of a new animated series (with redesigned versions of Tom and Kaz) to promote the game. CUSA has been developing the online game experience for Chaotic named ChaoticGame.com.

The TV series is based on the storyline of the original Chaotic TCG. The main protagonist is a teenager named Tom, whose friend, Kaz, constantly tells him of his adventures in Chaotic. Tom, whom only believes that Chaotic is only card game, thinks that Kaz is making things up, until he entered a password he received from the game. It was then Tom knew that Kaz wasn't lying. In Chaotic, he also met some new friends, like the courageous Sarah and the comic Peyton, and new enemies, like the arrogant duo Klay and Krystella. In Perim, he also got to meet many creatures, including his favorite, Maxxor. However in Perim, the four tribes are currently at war for the Cothica, the power that controls all of Perim.
