Card flip
From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Card flip is one of three types of games playable at Game Corners. The game is playable only in Generation II, at the Goldenrod Game Corner in Johto and at the Celadon Game Corner in Kanto. The reason for their absence in their Generation IV remakes is currently unknown.
Card flip allows players to place bets on which card a player will flip over. The deck has 24, each one with a number between 1 and 6 and a picture of one of four Pokémon (Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Oddish, or Poliwag). Bets can be placed by single card, by single column, by single row, by a pair of columns, or by a pair of rows. A two-column bet can only be made by pairing Pikachu and Jigglypuff or by pairing Oddish and Poliwag; a two-row bet can only be made by pairing an odd number and the next higher even number (1 and 2, 3 and 4, or 5 and 6). Winning a bet by space returns pays out 24 times the bet amount; by single number, 6 times; by single Pokémon, 4 times; by two numbers, 3 times; by two Pokémon, 2 times. A by-species or by-number bet may increase its payout if some of the possibilities are taken off the board; the entire deck is reshuffled once 12 cards have been drawn.
