Halloween 2025 Part I

The first part of Halloween brings the debuts of Poltchageist, found in one-star raids, and Sinistcha, which it evolves into for 50 Candy. Sinistea can be shiny for the first time, and Shadow Yamask and Shadow Phantump debut in Shadow Raids. It runs from 21 to 27 October, alongside ghostly wild spawns, Hisuian and regional forms in raids and themed Field Research.
