While people in other countries are already enjoying the mobile game, Japan is celebrating the local release of the latest Pokémon movie with exclusive toys from McDonald’s.

When it comes to Happy Meal Toys, McDonald’s Japan has brought out some classic exclusives by teaming up with some of the country’s best-known anime and gaming franchise companies. There was the Super Mario series back in Christmas 2013, Doraemon collectibles last year, and now we get to enjoy some new goodies to help celebrate the July 16 release of Pokémon the Movie XY&Z: Volcanion and the Clockwork Magearna (Borukenion to Karakuri no Magiana in Japanese).

▼ For three weeks from July 15, Happy Meal sets like this one around Japan will come served with one of six Pokémon toys.
