Slowpoke and Alolan Diglett Officially Join Pokémon's Annual Donut Collab for Winter 2026

Japanese donut chain Mister Donut has officially revealed its latest Pokémon collaboration, introducing a new collection of character-themed donuts and exclusive merchandise to celebrate the franchise’s 30th anniversary.

The “Everyone Together! Winter Pokémon Campaign” features special treats inspired by Pikachu, Alolan Diglett and Slowpoke, alongside festive donuts, collectible blankets and a Pokémon-themed glass.

Pokémon celebrated its 30th anniversary in February 2026, marking three decades since the original Pokémon Red and Green games launched for Nintendo’s Game Boy in Japan.

The franchise has since expanded to include more than 1,000 Pokémon across multiple generations, with its characters regularly appearing in special collaborations with Japanese restaurants, fashion brands and merchandise manufacturers.

Mister Donut has worked with Pokémon for several years, including its 2025 winter collection featuring Pikachu, Foongus and Mimikyu, which was later joined by a special Ditto Donut Tree celebrating the chain’s 55th anniversary.

This year’s campaign takes inspiration from the anniversary milestone, with Alolan Diglett gathering together Pokémon that have appeared in previous Mister Donut collaborations.

Alongside several returning favorites, the collection introduces a new Slowpoke donut that will arrive slightly later than the rest of the lineup, reflecting the Pokémon’s famously relaxed personality.

Let’s take a look at the full collection!

“Fluffy Pikachu Donut”: ¥345 takeout / ¥352 dine-in (approximately $2.20 / £1.65)

Pikachu returns as a soft yeast donut filled with whipped cream and covered in custard-flavored flakes to create a fluffy appearance.

Its ears are coated in chocolate, with chocolate decorations for the eyes and soft strawberry-flavored gummies recreating Pikachu’s red cheeks.

“Pon de Alolan Diglett”: ¥367 takeout / ¥374 dine-in (approximately $2.30 / £1.75)

Alolan Diglett appears to emerge from a chocolate-covered Pon de Ring donut decorated with custard cream and crunchy chocolate pieces to resemble the ground.

The Pokémon itself is made from whipped cream-filled choux pastry coated in burnt caramel-flavored chocolate, with chocolate eyes and whiskers, a strawberry gummy nose, and its signature strands of hair.

“Pokémon Get-Together Angel & Custard”: ¥237 takeout / ¥242 dine-in (approximately $1.50 / £1.10)

A light choux pastry donut coated in chocolate and filled with whipped cream and custard cream.

Each comes in one of four randomly selected illustrated sleeves featuring Pokémon from earlier Mister Donut collaborations, with the complete set bringing together the different characters that have appeared over the years.

“Pon de Wreath Burnt Caramel”: ¥205 takeout / ¥209 dine-in (approximately $1.30 / £1)

A festive Pon de Ring donut coated in burnt caramel-flavored chocolate and decorated with colorful sugar sprinkles to resemble a Christmas wreath.

“Pon de Wreath White”: ¥205 takeout / ¥209 dine-in (approximately $1.30 / £1)

A second wreath-inspired donut using the same chewy Pon de Ring dough, this time coated in white chocolate and finished with colorful sugar decorations.

“Slowpoke Donut”: ¥345 takeout / ¥352 dine-in (approximately $2.20 / £1.65)

Slowpoke makes its first appearance in this year’s lineup as a soft choux pastry donut coated in white chocolate and topped with strawberry milk-flavored sugar.

Whipped cream recreates Slowpoke’s ears, with chocolate decorations forming its eyes and nose, giving the donut the Pokémon’s familiar sleepy expression.

Mister Donut is also introducing two exclusive Pokémon blankets through a special “Pokémon Goods Set”, priced at ¥2,200 for takeout (approximately $14 / £10) or ¥2,217 for dine-in.

The orange blanket includes Jigglypuff, Charmander and Eevee, while the blue version features Snorlax, Piplup and Wobbuffet, with both measuring approximately 100 × 82 cm and offering a larger design than last year’s blankets.

Each set includes two Pokémon-themed donuts of your choice, one Pon de Wreath donut, either blanket, and a paper bag decorated with an original illustration.

A separate “Pokémon Kids’ Goods Set”, priced at ¥1,180 for takeout (approximately $7.50 / £5.60) or ¥1,191 for dine-in, includes a decorated drinking glass featuring Pokémon artwork.

The glass measures approximately 9.3 cm tall and 6.4 cm across, with a narrower middle section designed to make it easier for children aged four and older to hold.

The children’s set also includes one Pokémon donut, one Pon de Wreath donut, and an illustrated paper bag.

Mister Donut has also created special Pokémon-themed takeaway boxes and paper bags featuring characters from earlier collaborations, with the limited-edition packaging available with other qualifying donut purchases while supplies last.

The “Everyone Together! Winter Pokémon Campaign” will be available at participating Mister Donut locations across Japan, with an advance reservation system allowing customers to secure selected products ahead of the official launch.

Reservations through Misdo Net Order will open in eastern Japan on October 27 and 28, 2026, followed by western Japan on October 29 and 30, with orders accepted between 7:00 AM and midnight JST on the designated dates.

Customers using these advance reservation windows can collect their orders between November 2 and 6, although November 2 and 3 will be reserved for pre-order collections rather than general in-store sales.

The main Pokémon donut collection and exclusive merchandise sets will officially launch in stores on November 4, 2026, with availability limited by each location’s stock.

Slowpoke will join the lineup later, with online reservations opening nationwide on November 18 for collection from November 23.

The “Slowpoke Donut” will then officially launch in participating Mister Donut stores on November 25, 2026, as the second phase of this year’s Pokémon winter collaboration.
