If you’re a fan of donuts, Pokémon, or Japanese traditions (or all three), the Mister Donut Pokémon Lucky Bags 2025 are calling your name! These bags, known as fukubukuro, are a staple of Japan’s New Year celebrations.
But what exactly is a fukubukuro? It’s essentially a “lucky bag” filled with surprise goodies, often at a price lower than their actual value. Think of it as a fun way to kick off the year with a little mystery and a lot of savings!
This year’s Mister Donut collaboration with Pokémon is back and better than ever. Let’s dive into what makes these 2025 lucky bags a must-have for donut lovers and Pokémon trainers alike.
What’s Inside the Bag?
Mister Donut has two options this year:
1. ¥3,500 Lucky Bag
- Pokémon-Themed Tote Bag: Perfect for carrying your daily essentials while flaunting Pikachu, Diglett, Dugtrio, and other adorable Pokémon peeking out of donuts.
- Matching Pouch: Great for organizing smaller items with a matching design.
- Donut Vouchers: 20 donuts of your choice, up to ¥198 each. That’s a value of ¥3,960 right there!
2. ¥6,000 Lucky Box
- Reusable Shopping Bag: Great for groceries or Pokémon merchandise hauls.
- Bath Towel: Featuring Pikachu and Diglett, it’s both practical and ridiculously cute.
- Set of Three A4 Folders: Organize your papers in style with Pokémon designs on both sides.
- Schedule Book: Comes with five interchangeable covers to keep your plans organized all year long.
- Donut Vouchers: A whopping 35 donuts, up to ¥198 each (a ¥6,930 value).
Both options offer donut vouchers that alone surpass the bag’s cost, making these a deliciously good deal!
Limited Edition Pokémon Donuts
While you wait for your lucky bag, why not grab some of the collaboration’s exclusive Pokémon donuts? This year’s lineup includes the Pon de Diglett donut, which features a chocolate crunch and custard cream filling, topped with a caramel-flavored choux pastry Diglett. You’ll also find the classic Pikachu donut, complete with caramel custard and whipped cream, as well as new creations like the Jump Out Dugtrio caramel ring.
How to Get One
You can reserve your bag starting December 11 through the Mister Donut website or app. If you miss the reservation period, don’t fret! The lucky bags officially go on sale December 26 at Mister Donut locations nationwide (while supplies last).
Bonus for Pokémon Fans
This year, each bag also includes a code for the “Mythical Pokémon Get Campaign,” allowing you to snag a rare Pokémon for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Adventure-ready tools are also part of the package, making these bags even more irresistible for game enthusiasts.
Start 2025 Right with a Sweet Surprise!
Let’s face it: donuts and Pokémon make an unbeatable combo. Whether you’re a Pokémon trainer, a donut aficionado, or just someone who loves a good bargain, the 2025 Mister Donut lucky bags promise fun, savings, and a sweet start to the new year.
