Niantic has announced details for its Halloween events in Pokémon GO and Pikmin Bloom. Both games are expected to feature a two-part event.
Pokémon GO
The event of the most famous video game saga will take place from Thursday 20 October at 10:00 until Thursday 27 October at 10:00. In the first part, trainers will be able to encounter a Mega Banette in Mega Raid, a Shiny Yamask from Galaria or a Shiny Noibat.
Plus, during Halloween, you’ll see how PokéStops and Gyms are decorated for this celebration, as well as a version of the Pueblo Lavender song at night. During this portion of the event, Trainers will be able to conduct a special Halloween quest to learn more about Galaria’s Yamask and Yamask. They will also be able to purchase tickets that will give them access to Timed Investigations, Yamask encounters, as well as items for their avatar and other Halloween-themed activities.

Pikmin Bloom
For its part, Pikmin Bloom never misses an opportunity to celebrate Halloween. Starting today, Friday 14 October at 00:00, the first part of the Pikmin Bloom Halloween event is now available for all players.
During the event, Pikmin decorated with the famous Halloween pumpkin will appear. Additionally, you can earn Gold Seeds by completing tasks on the To-Do List or Weekly Challenges starting October 17th. These seeds will grow into purple, white, rock or lantern Pikmin with a Jack O’Lantern head. These will be very useful during the second part of the event, so grow as much of them as you can.
