Niantic's celebration of the spooky season continues with the start of Pokémon GO's Halloween 2024 Part I event this coming Tuesday, October 22nd, at 10:00am local time. The event will continue through until the beginning of Part II on October 28th, at 10:00am local time. Morpeko will make its Pokémon GO debut alongside this event.

Morpeko can change form in battle each time it uses a Charged Attack. On debut, Morpeko will only be able to change forms when battling Team GO Rocket or in the GO Battle League, though this may change in future. Morpeko will know the Charged Attack Aura Wheel (Electric) while it is in Full Belly Mode, and Charged Attack Aura Wheel (Dark) while it is in Hangry Mode. Both moves have 100 power and increases the user’s Attack by one stage in Trainer Battles.

Starting with this event, Morpeko can be encountered in reward encounters throughout the Season in the GO Battle League. During this event, Morpeko will also be encountered more frequently in the premium track of the GO Battle League. After the event, starting at Rank 16 in the GO Battle League, Morpeko will be encountered in both GO Battle League reward tracks, but more frequently in the premium track.

The following bonuses will be active throughout this event:
  • 2× Candy for catching Pokémon.
