Pokémon are often round and sweet creatures, so what better collaboration could there be then to make Pocket Monster donuts? Krispy Kreme certainly is onboard with the idea, and right now you can head to a local shop and order a few dozen, or maybe just one or two. Let’s go through what’s available, according to the Krispy Kreme PR team:

Original Glazed Gold Doughnuts Dots 10-Count (Original Glazed & Tossed in Gold Dusting)
To celebrate 30 years of Pokémon, our Original Glazed Dots transform into a golden tribute to three decades of adventure and discovery. This special release features a special-edition and display-worthy reusable acrylic Pokémon cup available in five exclusive Pokémon designs, filled with 10 Original Glazed Gold Dots for fans to enjoy and celebrate.
These donuts can be picked up individually or as part of a dozen, which comes with a lovely Pokémon-themed box. Select retailers are also offering bundles of these donuts, including Walmart and Target. If you’re interested, note that scalpers are ruining things as usualy by desparately trying to get their hands on the cups and selling them for ridiculous, inflated prices. We of course encourage not giving those people a cent, but your local Krispy Kreme might be placing restrictions on ordering the cups in order to try to get them to as many people as possible. However, in the case of the Krispy Kreme near this writer, they were demanding pretty large orders to get any of the cups so… do what you gotta do to catch ’em all, I guess. Or not.
Hey, if nothing else, just go enjoy a donut or two and tell us what you think!
