To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Pocket monsters, McDonald’s includes packages of Pokémon cards in Happy Meals. I thought it was a good idea! And others believed.
Included are four random cards from a set of 50 cards, Inven reports. The rarest or most valuable books are, as always, the bright versions.
Some collectors and YouTubers are inevitably standing up books. The scalpers, not surprisingly, appear almost in the back.
On the first day the books were released, it’s fast the food chain seemed laissez-faire about launch. Some McDonald’s apparently offering packages separately, while other locations include them along with Happy Meal. Depending on the specific McDonald’s, there may be different rules about how much can be purchased.
For example, as a YouTuber Pokemon blazendar pointed out, the location may have limited stock, so bought 20 Happy tables. Instead, YouTuber a road he didn’t want the food and just asked for the boxes and packs of cards. He was limited to ordering 20 in one location, but could order 80 in another.
Vannie Eats ordered six dishes with the books and then filmed a mukbang while devouring the food.
Good to not let the food get lost. Some, such as those mentioned above Pokemon Blazendary or Twitter JT Valor, who buy in bulk, say they donate food to those in need. I hope others who buy a lot of happy dishes do the same.

Not everyone who buys in bulk is looking to return these books, but the books end up on eBay. The packages are about 5 to 10 USD per pop on the resale market, with more desirable books such as the brilliant Pikachu, which bring up to 60 USD.
Ordinary people who hope to get a happy Pokémon meal with commemorative cards find that they are already exhausted. Sucks, sure, but if it doesn’t exist stricter rules on people buying a lot of happy dishes, this had to happen.
