The Pokémon Character cards make up 192 of the 204 featured Pokémon and are divided into three colors: yellow, orange, and red. Yellow Pokémon are the weakest, with either four or five Battle Points (BPs). All the basic forms of the [[Starter Pokémon]] (not including the then-unreleased [[Generation IV]]) are included in this category, besides some other low-level Pokémon like Jigglypuff. Orange Pokémon are medium strength, with BPs of either six or seven. They include all the middle stages of the Starter Pokémon as well as evolved Pokémon like {{p|Slowbro}} and strong unevolved Pokémon like {{p|Aipom}} and {{p|Diglett}}. Red Pokémon are strong, with BPs of either eight or nine. They include all the final stages of the Starter Pokémon in addition to other powerful fully-evolved Pokémon like {{p|Flygon}} and rare non-Legendary Pokémon like {{p|Lapras}}.

Rare Pokémon cards include all the Legendary Pokémon in Generations I-III, with two {{p|Deoxys}} ([[Form differences#Deoxys|Attack Forme and Defense Forme]]). The [[Legendary birds]], [[Legendary beasts|beasts]], and [[Legendary golems|golems]] and the [[Eon duo]] have ten BPs. The [[Weather trio]], [[Tower duo]], {{p|Mewtwo}}, and Deoxys (Defense Forme) have eleven BPs. {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, and Deoxys (Attack Forme) have 12 BPs.

==Spaces==
==Spaces==
There are several different types of spaces players may land on. Sometimes they will win free PCs, sometimes they have to spin for PCs. Occasionally a a player will land on a bad space and lose PCs or Pokémon. Many of the spaces trigger wild Pokémon battles and inter-player battles, and a few trigger encounters with Rare Pokémon. If a player gets lucky they will land on a space with Professors Oak or Birch, who have two free Pokémon to offer. All the card types except the Smile Loan cards have their own spaces; for example, Item and Event spaces.
==Trivia==
*{{p|Pidgeotto}}'s BP level is 4, the lowest possible, a trait it shares with such weak Pokémon as {{p|Cleffa}} and {{p|Togepi}}. It is unknown why an evolved Pokémon was grouped with weaker ones, or why neither of its evolutionary relatives ({{p|Pidgey}} and {{p|Pidgeot}}) were included in the game at all.
*{{p|Igglybuff}}, a baby Pokémon, has six BPs, while its evolved form, Jigglypuff, has only five.
*Probably because [[Ash's Pikachu]] is so strong in the [[Pokémon anime|anime]], {{p|Pikachu}} is given a BP level of 8, unusually high.
