Hangry Morpeko Is Coming To Pokémon GO This Halloween!

Pokémon GO's Halloween festivities are about to begin, and Niantic has unveiled the details for Part 1 of the event (with a Part 2 to follow!). Get ready for exciting features and spooky Pokémon encounters.

The event runs from Tuesday, October 22nd, at 10:00 a.m. local time, until Monday, October 28th, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. local time.

Event Highlights:

Morpeko makes its Pokémon GO debut! This Electric/Dark-type Pokémon introduces unique battle mechanics, particularly effective against Team GO Rocket and in GO Battle League. Its ability to switch between Full Belly Mode (Aura Wheel - Electric-type, 100 power, Attack boost) and Hangry Mode (Aura Wheel - Dark-type, 100 power, Attack boost) mid-battle adds a thrilling element.

During the event, Morpeko will have an increased encounter rate in the GO Battle League's premium track, remaining available from Rank 16 onward, though more frequent in premium battles.

Festive Atmosphere & Features:

Expect special Halloween decorations and a remix of the classic Lavender Town theme music playing nightly.

Dynamax Gastly appears in one-star Max Battles, alongside Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble.

A free Timed Research event, focusing on Spiritomb and its 108 spirits, runs from October 22nd to November 3rd. Completing tasks rewards encounters with Halloween-themed Pokémon, including Spiritomb and Morpeko.

Download Pokémon GO from the Google Play Store and prepare for a spooky good time!
