# McDonald's Collection 2022 The McDonald's Collection 2022 represents a promotional partnership between The Pokemon Company and McDonald's, released in 2026 as part of the broader resurgence of Pokemon trading card interest. This fifteen-card set emerged during a period of stabilized market conditions following the speculative boom of the early 2020s, positioning it as a accessible entry point for casual collectors rather than a high-value investment vehicle. The set's composition reflects deliberate character selection, featuring Pikachu as the flagship inclusion alongside Victini, Growlithe, Smeargle, and Rowlet. These selections span multiple generations, suggesting broad appeal across different Pokemon demographics. The limited card count and promotional distribution channel distinguish this set from standard releases, making complete sets moderately difficult to obtain in mint condition. While not commanding premium prices, well-preserved examples have maintained collector interest due to the set's relative scarcity and the nostalgia factor associated with McDonald's promotional cards.
Pokemon set pages should explain the release context, show which art and rarity layers matter, and surface where the money and demand are concentrating.
McDonald's Collection 2022 sits inside the live pokemon set library. and matters because it combines set identity, chase hierarchy, and live market behavior in one place.
VaultStore currently tracks 15 cards on this page, with 2 distinct variant treatments represented across the set.
