McDonald's Unveils New Pokémon TCG Happy Meal Toys Starting November

McDonald's is launching a collaboration between its Happy Meals and the Pokémon Trading Card Game starting in late October or early December, depending on your country. The promotion will feature plastic toys of fifteen different Pokémon inside mini Happy Meal boxes that double as display frames for trading cards. Each toy comes with two random Pokémon cards from a set of fifteen reprints featuring McDonald's numbering.

The campaign marks the first time since 2018 that customers receive genuine three-dimensional collectible toys in their meals, replacing previous four-card booster packs. The confirmed roster includes Bulbasaur, Charmander, Chikorita, Eevee, Espeon, Espurr, Minccino, Munchlax, Pikachu, Piplup, Rowlett, Sobble, Squirtle, Sprigatito, and Weedle.

Promotion dates vary by region. In Canada the event runs from November 3 to December 7; in Australia it begins on November 5 through December 9; and in the United States it starts November 10 and ends December 14.
