Pokémon Returns to Mister Donut—and Slowpoke Takes Its Time

At Mister Donut this November, Alolan Diglett pokes out of a chocolate-covered ring, Pikachu gets strawberry-gummy cheeks, and Slowpoke arrives three weeks after everyone else.

The Japanese doughnut chain’s Everyone, Gather! Winter Pokémon Campaign (みんなで集合！冬のポケモンキャンペーン) begins in stores on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, at participating locations across Japan. Celebrating Pokémon’s 30th anniversary, this year’s collection brings together characters featured in earlier Mister Donut collaborations, with limited-edition doughnuts, blankets and a drinking glass.

For visitors, it is another reason to learn the name Misdo (ミスド), the Japanese shorthand for Mister Donut—and to look beyond the familiar ring-shaped doughnut.

Pikachu Gets Fluffy. Diglett Breaks Ground.

The Fluffy Pikachu Doughnut (もふもふ ピカチュウ ドーナツ) gives the character a coating of custard-flavored flakes over soft yeast dough filled with whipped cream. Chocolate decorates the ears, chocolate pieces form the eyes, and strawberry-flavored gummies supply the red cheeks. It costs ¥345 to take away or ¥352 to eat in.

The Pon de Alolan Diglett (ポン・デ・アローラディグダ) builds a small edible landscape around the chain’s Pon de Ring, a doughnut formed from connected balls of chewy dough. Chocolate coating, custard cream and chocolate crunch create the ground. Rising from it is a whipped-cream-filled choux pastry coated in toasted-caramel-flavored chocolate, with chocolate hair and a strawberry-gummy nose. It costs ¥367 to take away or ¥374 to eat in.

A third option, Pokémon Gather! Angel & Custard (ポケモンたちの あつまれ！エンゼル＆カスタード), sandwiches whipped cream and custard inside chocolate-coated choux pastry. The Pokémon appear on the sleeve, supplied at random in one of four designs. It costs ¥237 to take away or ¥242 to eat in.

Two festive Pon de Wreath doughnuts—one with toasted-caramel-flavored chocolate, the other with white chocolate—round out the opening lineup. Each costs ¥205 to take away or ¥209 to eat in. All prices include tax.

Slowpoke Is Running Late

In a scheduling decision that suits the character, the Slowpoke Doughnut (ヤドン ドーナツ) reaches store counters on Wednesday, November 25, 2026.

Made with soft choux pastry, it gets its pink appearance from white chocolate and strawberry-milk sugar, with whipped-cream ears and chocolate facial details. The price is ¥345 to take away or ¥352 to eat in.

 

Something to Take Home Besides Doughnuts

The Gather Together! Merchandise Collection (あつまれ！グッズコレクション) includes orange and blue Pokémon blankets, each approximately 100 by 82 centimeters, and a small drinking glass designed for children ages four and up.

A blanket set includes two Pokémon doughnuts, one Pon de Wreath, a choice of blanket and an original paper bag, starting at ¥2,200 for takeaway. The children’s glass set includes one Pokémon doughnut, one Pon de Wreath, the glass and an original paper bag, starting at ¥1,180 for takeaway.

Pokémon takeaway boxes and paper bags will also be available while supplies last, including with purchases of doughnuts outside the Pokémon collection. Packaging cannot be obtained on its own.
