Halloween in Pokémon GO is already eagerly awaited by many trainers. The code has now revealed spooky music that you can listen to here. There is also a new Pikachu with a (magical) hat.
Soon we will celebrate the Halloween event in Pokémon GO, but we still don’t know exactly what bonuses to expect. A promotion in the App Store has revealed a new variant of Pikachu that is likely to be part of the Halloween event. Additionally, data miners found spooky music in the code that fits the event.
Halloween Event 2017 with Special Pikachu
An advertisement for Pokémon GO recently appeared in the App Store for the Apple Watch, providing new hints about the Halloween event. The image shows the spooky Pokémon Shuppet and Sableye together with Drifloon and Gengar, which are apparently expected for Halloween.
The image also shows a Pikachu wearing a special hat again. These hats are already known from other events when Pichu, Pikachu, and Raichu wore Santa hats or Ash Ketchum’s cap. It seems that a headpiece is also essential for Halloween – this time Pikachu is wearing a wizard hat.
In a recent data mine, experts from TheSilphRoad noted that sounds from the 3rd generation monsters are now present in the game. This means that we are one step closer to a release of these new monsters in Pokémon GO.
A special wallpaper also suggests that there will be new monsters for the Halloween event. Whether we will unlock the entire 3rd Gen for Halloween or just a handful of spooky Gen 3 monsters will find their way into the game is still unclear.
Lavender Music in Pokémon GO
The experts from PokémonGOHub have managed to extract and share the recently found Lavender music from the code. The music is a new version of the well-known Lavender theme that trainers were already able to experience in older Pokémon editions.
This music may appear in the evening hours during the Halloween event.
It is still unclear when the Halloween event in Pokémon GO will start. We are awaiting official information from Niantic about this event.
Since Halloween takes place on October 31, it is currently assumed that the event will start next week (from October 23). Keep an eye on our Facebook page for Pokémon GO for further information.
