Do you think J.K Rowling played Neopets in the 2000's? the main character in fantastic beasts is called Newt Scamander, and the petpet is clearly a newt! (I googled scamander to see if I was stupid and it was like a biological name, but nothing came up )
According to JN the Scamander was released July 10 2002. Newt Scamander is listed as the author for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them in PS/SS in the required book list, which was originally published in 1997, with the companion version of the book coming out in 2001, so if anything the neopets item is a reference.

Yeah, that book and Quidditch Through The Ages were both nonfiction books from within the story, written and released as part of a charity thing early in the series rise to popularity. The plot of the movie series has absolutely nothing to do with the book itself. It was just a psuedo-nonfiction glossary of magical creatures. The movies I guess are...a cash grabthe wacky hijinks New encounters while researching what will later become the book.
JK Rowling may be trash, but I can't un-know all of this little tidbits lol.
