McDonald's Pokémon toys

Japanese McDonald's stores will once more be giving away Pokémon toys in their Happy Meals, the Pokémon Company has reported.

Toys depicting Pikachu, Victini, Thundurus, and Zekrom will be given away starting Dec. 16. Oshawott, Reshiram, Landorus, and Tornadus toys will be given away starting Dec. 23. The event is currently scheduled to last about three weeks.

This is not the first McDonald's promotional campaign this year for the Pokémon franchise. In June and July, twelve different Pokémon Cards were given away as a part of the McDonald's Collection and eight toys were given away as a part of the 2011 McDonald's Promotional Pokémon Toys.

In related news, the official Pokémon calendar for 2012 is now on sale. It comes with a sheet of stickers for all of the Pokémon in the Unova Pokédex and can be bought at Japanese McDonald's stores. This calendar is a traditional end-of-year promotion and once received a Guinness World Record.
