The program aired on 4Kids TV (Fox affiliates, nationwide), Jetix, The CW4Kids, Cartoon Network and Disney XD.

The rights have since defaulted to Bryan C. Gannon, who's leading an effort to revive the game for modern audiences by licensing the franchise to Epic Story Media.

Chaotic started out as a trading card game known as "Grolls and Gorks"[2] 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 as 20 years, to be produced by Solit Entertainment.

[3] Before any episodes were made, Dracco Company Ltd. bought the rights to Chaotic from Solit Entertainment.

The original storyline featured Tom Majors and Kaz Kalinkas, who were enemies, instead of friends as in the 4Kids animated series.

Dracco Company Ltd. with Apex Marketing[4][5] then created the online version of the game and established the basic universe of Chaotic.

In September 2003 trading card Executive Bryan C. Gannon signed a worldwide Licensing and Distribution agreement with Henrik Andersen and his brother Jacob Anderson[citation needed] at Dracco to bring the Chaotic game to North America and to the world.

Sam Murakami, a 4Kids employee, and Martin Rauff, the original designer with Bryan C Gannon and TC Digital Games, adapted the card game to the U.S.[6] 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.

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.
