In 1999, during the release of Pokémon: The First Movie, Burger King ran a unique promotion: every Kids Meal included one of 151 PokéTrivia cards—torn from larger uncut sheets—featuring classic Pokémon and trivia. Due to toy shortages, “master sheets” (9-card uncut sheets) were issued in their place, making them rare collector items today. (source)
