Pumpkins Permeate Pokémon UNITE

Halloween has arrived on Aeos Island, and Trainers will find pumpkins aplenty in Pokémon UNITE. Beginning today, October 20, 2021, to November 10, 2021, the game will feature all sorts of tricks and treats, including a fun new take on Mer Stadium battles, special bonuses that earn players pumpkins, and festive new ways to deck out their character and Pokémon. The game might even look a little spookier than usual, too.

Trainers can use special attacks such as Pumpkin Toss and Pumpkin Push when they play a quick battle in Mer Stadium. Participating in Mer Stadium’s festive battles can also earn players collectible pumpkins that can be exchanged for limited-time Halloween items. Mer Stadium will be decked out for Halloween only until November 10.

There are also other ways to earn pumpkins. Starting today, October 20 to November 7, there’ll be daily log-in bonuses, and from October 24 to November 2, Trainers will be able to complete daily missions to collect even more. These pumpkins can be used in the Pumpkin Exchange to get certain items such as Battle Point Boost cards, a Greedent Unite license, a Halloween background, a Halloween hat, and more.
Pokémon UNITE, Pokémon’s first strategic team battle game, is free-to-start on Nintendo Switch systems and mobile devices, with optional in-game purchases available.
