In Pokémon GO the rhythm does not stop and Niantic is already thinking about one of the next events that will take place next month: the Day of the Dead 2022. As happened last year, this event is dedicated to the holiday that is celebrated in Mexico and other places in America to honor the lives and memory of loved ones who have left us.
One custom is to cover the streets with cempasúchil petals, something that will be reflected in Duskull, Dusclops and Dusknoir, since these three Pokémon will disguise themselves with crowns of this type of petal, as you can see in the image that heads the news.
Apart from these there will be many other Pokémon that will appear more frequently than normal, which will be seen even more by those residing in Latin America and the Caribbean. What’s more, some will even come to the smell of the Incenses and Lure Modules, which will increase their duration up to 90 minutes. Here you have all the details in the following list:
Pokemon | Encounter in the Wild | Encounter with Incense or Modules |
---|---|---|
Chinchou | Yes | Nope |
cuben | Yes | Yes |
Drifloon | Yes | Yes |
Duskull with cempasuchil crown | Yes | Yes |
Houndoom | Nope | Yes |
litwick | Yes | Nope |
roselia | Yes | Yes |
sunflora | Nope | Yes |
sunken | Yes | Yes |
Swirlix | Yes | Yes |
Yamask | Yes | Yes |
To pass the time, new field research tasks, a collection challenge and special raids will be enabled during those days, among which the presence of Origin Form Giratina and Mega Banette will stand out, which until now was not available in the game. So, take good note, because the Day of the Dead will only last from 10:00 a.m. on November 1 to 8:00 p.m. on November 2.
