Pokemon Halloween: Gengar and Ghost-type Mass Outbreaks in Scarlet and Violet!

Get ready to shiver with excitement, trainers! Halloween is creeping up on us, and Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are pulling out all the stops with a spine-chilling event.

Gengar’s Haunting Return

First up, we have a Gengar Tera Raid that’s sure to send shivers down your spine. From October 28th to 31st, Gengar will be appearing in five-star Tera Raids across Paldea at an increased rate. This is a fantastic opportunity to snag a powerful Gengar with a Ghost Tera Type and reap some spooky rewards.

Ghost-type Mass Outbreaks

But that’s not all! To add to the spooky atmosphere, a Mass Outbreak of Ghost-type Pokémon will be taking place from October 29th to 31st. Gastly, Misdreavus, Shuppet, and Bramblin will be appearing in droves, making it the perfect time to stock up on these spooky companions. Keep an eye out for those question marks on your map to find these outbreaks!

Crafty Marks and Shiny Hunting

If you’re lucky enough to catch a Pokémon during one of these Mass Outbreaks, you’ll have a higher chance of finding a Crafty Mark on it. This is a great way to boost your Pokémon’s abilities and make them even more powerful. Plus, with the increased spawn rates, it’s the perfect time to try your hand at Shiny hunting using the Let’s Go or Picnic methods.

What’s Next?

As the Gengar Tera Raid event comes to a close, we can expect to hear more about the upcoming seven-star Tera Raid challenge. Will it be another legendary Pokémon? A powerful regional variant? Only time will tell!
