Pokémon Pokopia version 2.0 went live on Oct. 17 at 5 a.m. local time, and with it came the game’s first Halloween event, Pumpkaboo’s Sweet Surprises. The event runs through Nov. 1 at 4:59 a.m. local time. During that stretch, players can collect Pumpkin Candy and trade it in for Halloween furniture and decorations.
To take part, you need at least one rebuilt Pokémon Center. After you get the in-game message saying “a Pokémon is the talk of the town,” head to that Pokémon Center to trigger the intro, meet Pumpkaboo, and start using Pumpkaboo as the event vendor for Pumpkin Candy. If all you want is extra copies of items you’ve already unlocked, the 3D printer can handle that too.
Getting Pumpkin Candy takes a little setup. You need Zorua’s Camouflage from the Bleak Beach questline. That ability lets you disguise Ditto as objects other Pokémon like, but the reward only counts if the target Pokémon notices or reacts to the object before you remove the disguise and surprise it. Also, each Pokémon only gives a reward once.
Version 2.0 also adds two event habitats, and one of them can attract Gourgeist. The Halloween look and the ghost-type additions seem to be going over well, though the surprise system may feel a bit fiddly for some players. It’s also smart to be careful with the conflicting reports going around about the system clock.
If you play regularly, this update is worth downloading.
You can jump into the event now by updating Pokémon Pokopia to version 2.0.
