Pikachu

# McDonald's Collection 2016 Pikachu This Pikachu represents a specific moment in Pokemon's promotional history when the TCG partnered with McDonald's for regional distribution. Collectors view these cards as accessible entry points to Pokemon collecting rather than chase pieces. The McDonald's promos occupy an interesting middle ground—they're official products with legitimate print runs, but they lack the scarcity of booster box pulls or vintage releases. What matters most to collectors is condition and completeness. Since these came in meal packages, finding well-preserved copies requires patience. The card itself holds sentimental value for many who remember the promotion, making it more meaningful than its market value suggests. For set builders, it's a straightforward inclusion rather than a difficult hunt.
