Treat yourself to a spooky Halloween experience with a
Pokémon GO event that’ll allow you to expand your Pokédex and double your Candy
rewards while listening to the haunting notes of Lavender Town. The Pokémon GO
Halloween Mischief 2021 event runs from Friday, October 15, 2021, at 10:00
a.m. to Sunday, October 31, 2021, at 8:00 p.m. local time. This event will
be divided into two parts, with plenty of featured Pokémon to catch, research
to complete, and adventures to be had across both parts.
You can expand your Pokédex with the Pokémon GO debut of Galarian
Slowking, Phantump, Trevenant, Pumpkaboo, and Gourgeist. To obtain a Galarian
Slowking, set a Galarian Slowpoke as your buddy and catch 30 Psychic-type
Pokémon. It’s the perfect opportunity to evolve Galarian Slowpoke into Galarian
Slowking, because Part 1 of this seasonal spooktacular is all about Poison and
Psychic types. Galarian Slowking will also be available after the Halloween
Mischief 2021 event has concluded.
All of the mischief and mayhem will play out with the
haunting sound of Lavender Town’s iconic music in the background, so don’t
forget to turn the volume up during this event.
Here are some activities you can enjoy throughout the entire event:
-
Battle like a fiend in the Halloween Cup! Timed Research based on Halloween Cup battles will bring sweet rewards.
-
Delve deep into the psyches of Ghost-type Pokémon with a Special Research story: What Lies beneath the Mask?
-
Trick or treat yourself with Candy-focused, event-long bonuses.
-
Catch costumed Pokémon, including Halloween Mischief Pikachu, Halloween Mischief Piplup, and Halloween Mischief Drifblim.
-
Move one step closer toward catching the elusive Hoopa with the next part of the Season of Mischief’s ongoing Misunderstood Mischief Special Research story.
