Pokémon Go ‘Halloween 2026 Part 2’ event guide
Pokémon Go continues its Halloween 2026 celebration with the second phase of the event, running from November 1-5. Despite launching well into November, the event maintains the holiday theme with returning costumed Pokémon and new shiny variations. The headline addition is the introduction of shiny Greavard, expanding the collectible roster available during this limited-time event.
A major gameplay update accompanies the event: Mega Sableye has been enhanced with the ability to reach Super Max Level, a significant power progression tier. When Mega Evolved, Sableye will now automatically know Night Shade+, a boosted move that applies retroactively to all instances—including those Mega Evolved before the update took effect. This retroactive move enhancement encourages players to utilize their Mega Evolved Pokémon during the event and potentially redeploy previously-evolved creatures.
Players who participated in the first half of Halloween 2026 can continue benefiting from the Go Pass throughout this second phase, maintaining continuity between the two event chapters. The structure of running sequential Halloween events across the calendar transition reflects Pokémon Go’s ongoing live-service model, with timed research tasks and special rewards designed to encourage regular engagement. The event’s extension beyond traditional Halloween demonstrates the game’s approach to seasonal content, stretching themed celebrations to capture player interest across multiple weeks.
