Release date, card count, chase cards and how it compares with the Sword & Shield era.
McDonald's Collection 2022 sits near the end of the Sword & Shield era as a small promotional run in the long-running McDonald's Collection series. Released on August 3, 2022 under set code MCD22, it carries 15 cards, all of them priced. The run leans on Lightning, Grass, Colorless and Fire Pokémon, and its headline cards are Pikachu, Growlithe and Victini, with Smeargle and Drampa close behind. It is a compact card list built around familiar faces rather than a deep rarity ladder.
As a promotional run, McDonald's Collection 2022 has no secret cards above its printed count, so the chase comes down to which Pokémon people want most. Pikachu, illustrated by chibi, is the most valuable card, followed by Growlithe by Narumi Sato, Victini by Teeziro, Smeargle by Kouki Saitou and Drampa by Tomokazu Komiya. Value is tightly concentrated: the top five cards hold 78 percent of the set's total card value, which leaves the other ten cards worth very little by comparison.

The McDonald's Collection 2022 card list runs to 15 printings, and all 15 are priced, so completing the run means finding every one of a short list. Because the top five cards carry 78 percent of the total card value, the cost of a complete set is driven by a few Pokémon, with the rest filling in cheaply by comparison. The set also has a single sealed product listed on the page, in the other sealed category.
