The Burger King trading cards are a set of Pokémon cards which were distributed with the 1999 Burger King promotional Pokémon toys. The cards came in an assortment to be separated along perforated edges. Each card features one of the 151 Pokémon that were known at the time (including Mew) on the front and a Collectible Movie Scene from Mewtwo Strikes Back on the reverse. There are ten Collectible Movie Scenes in total, appearing in sequence over the course of the set.

Regional differences

There are a few regional differences between the American and Canadian versions of the cards. The American versions of the cards have a trivia question about each Pokémon on the front and a description of the movie scene on the reverse. This was omitted from the Canadian version, likely due to the difficulty of fitting both English and French descriptions on the cards. Additionally, while the American cards have the Pokémon height and weight statistics listed in United States customary units, the Canadian cards use the metric system.
