Pokemon Go will celebrate Halloween by introducing Morpeko and Dynamax Gastly later this month

  • Part one of Pokemon Go‘s Halloween event will introduce Morpeko
  • It will also add Gastly to the growing Dynamax roster
  • There will be a free Timed Research to complete alongside two ticketed quests

As a seasoned Pokemon Go player with years of catching, battling, and exploring under my belt, I can’t help but feel a thrill running down my spine as Niantic unveils the details for this year’s Halloween event. The anticipation is palpable, and the arrival of Morpeko, a Pokemon that can change form mid-battle, is nothing short of electrifying!


Every year, Halloween holds a significant place in the calendar for Pokemon Go, and this year is no exception. Today, Niantic has shared details about the beginning of their annual spooky event. This includes the introduction of a new Pokemon, a ghostly character joining the Dynamax group, and additional treats to make it more appealing. The first part of the event starts on October 22nd and lasts until October 28th.

In contrast to what one might anticipate, the fresh Pokemon coming in Go isn’t a Ghost-type. However, it can appear frightening at times, particularly when it’s either Hangry or Full Belly – that’s correct, enthusiasts of Pokemon have likely figured out that the latest addition is Morpeko. Or, you may have already known this from the headline of the article, making the following paragraph somewhat redundant…

In another way of saying it, Morpkeo’s initial appearance in Go represents the first instance where a Pokemon can morph during combat. When you activate the Aura wheel’s Charged Attack, your pet hamster will transform between Full Belly and Hangry states. This transformation alters the Aura Wheel’s type from Electric to Dark. However, it’s crucial to remember that, at this point in time, the mode-switching feature is exclusive to battles involving Trainers and Team Go Rocket members.

Besides stumbling upon them naturally, you can also come across Morpeko during the complimentary Time-Based Research events when it appears. During this research, you’ll also get a chance to capture a Spiritomb – an impressive and stylish Pokémon.

In addition to a free event, there are two ticketed events available. The first costs $2 and offers an opportunity to meet both classic and modern Halloween-themed Pokemon in costume, as well as obtaining some high-quality items. The second event, priced at $5, provides you with Candy bonuses and the chance to get a Morpeko onesie, offering a choice between Hangry and Full Belly mode versions.

In other locations, Gastly can be found in Dynamax Raids, allowing you an opportunity to expand your team with a Ghost-type Pokémon. Alternatively, the prospect of obtaining a Shiny Umbreon through Raid participation might appeal to you instead.
