McDonald’s is collaborating with Pokémon, offering 4-card boosters and activity sheets in special Happy Meals now through late February.

Do you want cards with that? McDonald’s has launched a limited-time Pokémon Happy Meal, sending fans of all ages scrambling for their share of the coveted collectible loot — with some heading straight to eBay to resell their hauls for hundreds.

McDonald's and Pokémon team up, create a set of Pokémon-themed Happy Meals and 15 limited-edition Pokémon trading cards.

Each meal box comes with a Pokémon trading card game booster pack featuring four of 15 collectible trading cards, McDonald’s said in a news release. It also includes a Pokémon poster and a sticker sheet for decorating. Pricing information wasn’t immediately available.

When McDonald’s brought back Pokemon Happy Meals for 2025, it wasn’t just kids rushing to collect trading cards and themed boxes.

Our fans have deep nostalgia and love for the Pokémon brand,” said Guillaume Huin, senior marketing director at McDonald’s.

The Pokémon Dragon Discovery Happy Meal will run from Jan. 21 to Feb. 24, according to PokeBeach. The site also reports that the collaboration is set for Austria and New Zealand in January. According to The Gamer, the partnership is themed around the Year of the Dragon.
