Halloween is just around the corner, so app developers – and just about everyone in general – are preparing new features to bring a touch of this holiday to all things. Including video games, of course. Niantic Labs, the owner of Pokémon Go, is willing to do the same.
So much so that it has just announced the arrival of Dark and Ghost-type Pokémon Pokémon GO Halloween arrives for all users who want to enjoy a few shocks.What is it at this time? The Halloween party, yes, starts a little before Halloween itself. Starting yesterday, October 23 at 10:00 p.m. CET (1:00 p.m. PDT), Ghost-type and Dark-type Pokémon will become part of the games. They are the same ones that first came to the Sinnoh region, like Drifloon or Stunky.
And an added advantage that the coaches will surely like a lot. For every new Pokémon you catch, you'll have a chance to get up to twice as many Candy. The Halloween party will last until November 1 at 10:00 p.m. (1:00 p.m. PDT).
Professor Willow will need your help
Another interesting novelty that we will observe during the Halloween event.Enter Professor Willow, who will need the help of Trainers to carry out certain limited investigations. Niantic Labs tells that Willow, walking one afternoon, came across a strange stone and since then some inexplicable events have occurred in the laboratory.
All suspicions are directed at a Pokémon. To find out what's going on here, both Professor Willow and the trainers who want to participate will have to get down to work to discover the hidden Pokémon before it disappears forever
But beware, this will not be the only thing that players will be able to do this Halloween. It seems that will be carrying out various field investigations, in which the Ghost-type and Dark-type Pokémon will have an absolutely leading role. This will also last, as we have indicated, until November 1.Within the application we will find these research missions labeled under the name: "A terrifying message".
And beware, trainers will also have new items to customize their Ghost-type Pokémon avatar. You can get items like the Drifloon cap or a Gengar backpack. These will naturally be available throughout the year. The only thing you will need to continue enjoying this Halloween and Pokémon Go experience will undoubtedly be to have good nerves of steel and keep your spirits tempered. We all know that these days are usually terrifying.
Giratina arrives, the renegade Pokémon
But Halloween won't be the only novelty with which Niantic Labs intends to seduce its trainers.In addition, the company has announced the first appearance of Giratina, the renegade Pokémon. It will make a presence in the Combats in raids. It was discovered in the Sinnoh region and has emerged from the Warp World to stay here. There will be plenty of time to challenge it, because it will be available until November 20 at 2:00 a.m. CEST (1:00 p.m. PST).
To enjoy all these new features, users will need to download the latest update that Niantic has made available to common users , either through the Google app store or from the App Store.
