Spookémon GO

Beginning the 26th of October and continuing until the first of November, a Halloween special event is coming to Niantic's spin-off Pokémon game, Pokémon GO. The event give a higher chance to catch spooky Pokémon such as Drowzee, Gastly, Hypno and Zubat (because clearly there aren't enough Zubats and Drowzees already).

As well as the extra chance of ghost Pokémon, the event sees the amount of candy increased to six per catch as well.

“It’s been incredible watching people explore their neighborhoods and catch wild Pokémon all summer,” said Tatsuo Nomura, senior product manager at Niantic, Inc. “We would like to trick-or-treat in our own special way by giving Trainers the chance to catch more Pokémon and earn extra Candy this Halloween.”
