Provenance

Where it came from

The 2014 McDonald's Pokémon collection was released as part of a recurring promotional partnership between The Pokémon Company and the fast-food chain. This specific set was distributed in Happy Meals across North America during the summer of 2014, serving as a simplified entry point for younger players to engage with the Pokémon Trading Card Game ecosystem through accessible, pre-constructed decks.

The Pikachu card, numbered 5/12, features artwork originally commissioned for the XY series of the trading card game. The design emphasizes the iconic mascot in a dynamic, high-energy pose consistent with the visual standards of the era. While the card is functionally identical to its standard set counterparts, it is distinguished by the McDonald's logo printed on the card face, making it a distinct collectible for fans of promotional releases.
