Here are all the bonuses for Pokémon Go's "Halloween 2026 Part 1" event, including a look at all the new costumed Pokémon.

Pokémon Go 'Halloween 2026 Part 1' event guide

Pokémon Go's Halloween Part 1 event for 2026 began on October 27 and will run until November 1. This event introduces a Trick or Treat mechanic, allowing players to discover goodies in boxes on the ground, similar to finding Applin's apples. The boxes may contain costumed Pokémon or candy. This half of the event sees the debut of Zubat and Sinistea in their Halloween costumes, as well as a cute-costumed Pikachu.

The Go Pass for this event has 50 ranks, with 58 bonus ranks available. Players can earn costumed Pokémon and candy from the pass just by playing the game. Completing certain milestones, like reaching rank 108, rewards players with an encounter with Spiritomb. The pass remains active through the Halloween 2026 Part 2 event. Players can earn points for the pass by catching Pokémon, winning raids, and hatching eggs.

Completing two daily tasks, such as catching six ghost-type Pokémon and 13 Pokémon, earns an additional 50 points per day. Upgrading to the deluxe version of the pass for $7.99 provides more rewards, like a patissier outfit. Pokémon spawn more frequently during the event period, and some raids will have altered schedules as part of the occasion.
