McDonald’s x Pokémon collab is live: How to collect 15 new toys and 15 trading cards
The McDonald's x Pokémon TCG promotion in 2026 features plastic toys of 15 Pokémon as mini Happy Meal boxes.
Starting November 10, McDonald's and Pokémon are collaborating to bring back the popular Pokémon Happy Meal for a limited time across participating McDonald's restaurants nationwide. This joint venture will offer 15 collectible toys and 15 collectible trading cards for fans to hunt down and enjoy.
The Pokémon Happy Meal will return to McDonald's in Australia, Canada, Fiji, France, New Zealand, Spain, and the USA in December 2026, followed by several European countries, including Austria, Belgium, Brunei, and more, in January 2027. The campaign will continue through February 2027 with an expanded list of countries in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
Inside each limited-edition Happy Meal box, customers will find a genuine 3D collectible toy featuring one of the 15 featured Pokémon. Additionally, customers can scan the QR code on their Happy Meal box to participate in a digital game where they can search for the remaining 15 Pokémon toys hidden in a virtual classroom and playground environment. Two randomized cards drawn from a specialized 15-card McDonald's reprint set, including seven foil cards, will also be included with each meal.
