My avatar turned black, I restarted my app, got this loading screen, transferred a Pidgey for 2x candies. http://i.imgur.com/z9HtA9n.jpg Happy farming, all! |
|
First find was Hypno. YASSSSS
|
I missed this by a few minutes when I first logged in today. Now I am updated as well and caugjt my 1st gastly plus a cubone bonus.

I stumbled on this guy a block from home: http://i.imgur.com/Xt1AyOS.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/POj1Y5x.png Edit: 15/14/10 for IVs and perfect offensive moveset, too (Shadow Claw/Shadow Ball)! Except it's only CP639 :| |
Still, awesome! XD
|
This is insane! Cluster spawn of gastlys (3) + 1 haunter looking like they are chatting with each other. It's like the ghost dimension got opened this week.
Gengar on sighting. Caught Hypno. Last but not the least - Cubone and Marowak seem a special package. Are they part of the increased spwn rate? Marowak is my fave Gen 1 pokemon. |

I also noticed more Meowth spawns as well, which is also fitting. |
Freakin' finally yes. There's a Gastly, Drowzee, and Cubone on my nearby list now and Haunter was around earlier. Really love the login wallpaper too. Time to get those Growlithe candy!

Both Gastly and Drowzee are very rare in my area, so I'm happy so see them appearing so frequently! Has anyone else noticed an increase in Cubone (and maybe Meowth?) as well? Because they're suddenly everywhere in my neighborhood.
Also, the reduced distance for buddy candies (and doubled candies for catches/transfers) are awesome. I could, potentially, add quite a few new Pokedex entries that otherwise would've taken a long time because of it. Thanks Niantic! |
Cubine and meowth and their evolutions are confirmed. By me and my friends.

I plan on switching my partner to Dratini immediately after I get enough candies to evolve my Pikachu. |
Love the login artwork, I'm going to miss that when it's over.
First encounter was a cluster of Gastly, Haunter, and finally a Cubone! Been looking for one since the game came out <3 Already getting lots of candy for my Squirtle. Hopefully I can evolve one and get Wartortle candy before the event is over, so I can actually have a Blastoise after all this time. |
Today I caught two Drowzees with CP 666! Coincidence? I think not!
|
Ever since the Halloween event began, both my mom and I have been having very frequent errors that force us to restart the app. And then when we do that often it won't load up. There must be something unstable about this build of the code in the Event.

Today I biked over 8 miles with pokemon go opened but I must say I did not get credit for 13 km worth of Dratini candy. Somehow, I get only 6.4 km worth of candies. I'm not sure actually if biking gives you candy faster than walking. I did some tests on a 0.5 km loop, and walking gave me 0.4 km worth of candies, biking more like 0.2 km in candies. I was biking quite slowly, and I never got the "You're going too fast!" message. Nonetheless, biking seems to give less candies per actual km for some reason.
Curiously, I can get up to 0.4 km/hr worth of candies with the phone stationary, due to GPS drift. |

Egg steps won't count for anything higher than 12 kph (7.5 mph or slightly above average running speed). The "too fast" message won't appear until roughly over 25 kph (15.5 mph or above average cycling speed). |
Man I am having a blast. I've already racked up like 120 extra candies of each of the Halloween event Pokémon and that's from a single two hour trip, excluding transferring the very very many I captured. Still need to do that. Found a wild Gengar too, my first. Next step is evolving a better Haunter because that Gengar is 82CP. /yay
Thanks to this I am currently out of catching balls to use. ;( |

I believe Cubone and marowak because they are wearing a mask (Halloween)
|
ive hatched 3 cubones and 4 ghastlys since the event started. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
|
I was so excited to see that you get extra candies when you hatch an egg. That Abra I hatched went a long way to getting me to 100 candies. Then I hatched a Gastly. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
|
Around here the only Pokémon who spawns increased are Gastly, Haunter, Meowth, Cubone and Marowak.
The best things about this update are the Cubone, was able to evolve Cubone into Marowak pretty quickly. Before the update I had 19 Cubone candies from one from an egg. Also the walking km's for candies decreased. The negatives are other Pokémon being decreased or in the case of rare spawns non-existent. Also kind of sick of Gastly, Haunter and Cubone now. And soooo many glitches. I tried catching a Marowak and the screen went blank, like just the grassy field with nothing else. Another time I threw a ball and it rolled for awhile then stopped, didn't disappear just sat there. Had to erase the catch and reload. Haven't seen a Gengar or Persian and I'd say Drowzee, Hypno, Zubat and Golbat's spawnrates were all decreased along with Eevee and everything else. I heard somewhere Ekans and Grimer were increased but both are non-existent here. |
Caught so many Gastly, a few Haunter and 1 Gengar so far on top of a few Meowth and quite a lot of Cubone. Drowzee keeps spawning in too but not nearly as often as usual so I'm liking this.
