Pokémon Lenticular Cards are a series of collectable cards that give the illusion of a moving image when tilted, either an evolutionary line or of a single Pokémon species. The name 'lenticular' refers to the cards structure, being biconcave. These cards are also known as three-dimension holograms.
On the back of the cards, across all sets, show the Pokémon's name, height, weight, evolutions (when applicable) and sometimes a description was included.
