Here’s a rundown of what Trainers can look forward to as they rest and research this week.
Event Overview
From October 28th at 4:00 a.m. to November 4th at 3:59 a.m. (local time), Pokémon Sleep players can expect an influx of Ghost-type Pokémon sightings and bonuses. Ghostly visitors like Mimikyu and a special Pikachu wearing a Halloween hat will join, and you’ll encounter Gengar, Drifblim, and even Skeledirge roaming Greengrass Isle.

About Pikachu (Halloween)
Dressed in a purple Halloween hat, this special Pikachu will have an increased appearance rate during the event and is ideal for research into unique sleep styles.
