Danone Pokémon Stadium Tip Cards

Danone Pokémon Stadium Tip Cards were distributed in packages with Pokémon cards of Danone Go yogurt products in Canada in the year 2000 to promote the release of Pokémon Stadium. There were a total of 48 collectible cards. Each card featured anime artwork of the Pokémon on the front. On the back, various stats are given such as a vulnerability chart, information on a useful move that the Pokémon can learn in the games, and a suggested team ("the invincibles") to use with the Pokémon in Pokémon Stadium. Occasionally, a party list for a specific Trainer in the game (and that specific Pokémon's moveset) will be given instead of "the invincibles".

The 3 different holo versions of Mewtwo next to eachother, error, silver & gold

All cards in the set are fully bilingual in English and French, Canada's two official languages.

Of those 48 different cards different versions exist, with 40 nonholo cards, 1 error nonholo mewtwo card, 8 silver holo cards and 8 gold holo cards. The silver and gold cards are hard to distinguish from eachother, but the gold cards are much darker than the silver ones.
