As of the time of writing, the second part of Pokemon GO’s 2025 Halloween Event has begun. It started at 10 am local time and will conclude on November 2 at 8 pm. This means you’ll have a little less than a week to catch yourself some adorable event-themed costumed Pokemon, such as Noibat wearing a headband and Teddiursa wearing a witch hat.
