The Halloween 2025 Part 2 event in Pokémon Go brings a chilling lineup of boosted spawns featuring Ghost- and Dark-type Pokémon perfect for the spooky season. Trainers will encounter creatures like Yamask, Phantump, and Mimikyu more frequently in the wild, alongside costume-themed Pokémon making their limited-time return. This second phase continues the eerie festivities with exclusive research tasks and increased chances to catch shiny forms of Halloween favorites.
These Pokémon have been confirmed to spawn via blog post:
- Teddiursa (witch hat)*
- Noibat (headband)*
Players on The Silph Road subreddit have also noticed that these Pokémon seem to be spawning frequently, too:
- Pikachu (Halloween)
- Vulpix (Halloween)
- Froakie (Halloween)
- Pumpkaboo (Halloween)
- Rowlet (Halloween)
- Sinistea
Which costume Pokémon can be shiny during Part 2
During Pokémon Go Halloween 2025 Part 2, the following costume Pokémon can be shiny:
-
Teddiursa wearing a witch hat (new costume debuting in Part 2)
-
Noibat wearing a headband (new costume debuting in Part 2)
-
Costume Pikachu (from previous Halloween events)
-
Costume Vulpix (from previous Halloween events)
-
Costume Froakie (from previous Halloween events)
-
Costume Rowlet (from previous Halloween events)
-
Costume Pumpkaboo (shiny debuted in Part 1, still available)
-
Costumed Sinistea (still spawning from Part 1)
These shiny costumed Pokémon are boosted during the event, meaning they have a better chance to appear shiny than usual, especially Teddiursa and Noibat with the new costumes. Additionally, one-star raids feature shiny-boosted costume Pikachu and Piplup, and some three-star raids have boosted shiny rates for costume Gengar and costumed Drifblim as well.
This gives players multiple opportunities and methods to shiny hunt these new and returning costume Pokémon during the event timeframe.youtube+2
Which newly debuted costume Pokémon are shiny boosted
The newly debuted costume Pokémon that are shiny boosted during Pokémon Go Halloween 2025 Part 2 are:
-
Teddiursa wearing a witch hat (can evolve into Ursaring and Ursaluna with the costume)
-
Noibat wearing a headband (can evolve into Noivern with the costume)
Both of these new costume Pokémon have a shiny boost in the wild and from field research tasks, with an assumed shiny rate of 1 in 128. Additionally, all costume Pokémon (including these new ones) have boosted shiny rates in raids, typically around 1 in 64.
This means shiny hunting Teddiursa and Noibat with their new costumes is easier due to their boosted shiny rates throughout the event.youtube+1
