"Much like they do for McDonald’s, our fans have deep nostalgia and love for the Pokémon brand. We’re thrilled to build on those great memories and create a new moment of fun and happiness with the new Pokémon Happy Meal," Guillaume Huin, McDonald's Senior Marketing Director, said in a press release.

As part of the Pokémon collaboration, Trainers will be able to visit Sponsored PokéStops or Gyms when visiting all McDonald’s restaurants in the U.S.
