It's time to celebrate Halloween with your favourite Ghost-types and enjoy Trick-or-Treating while you GO!
From October 26 to November 1, you are going to run into the Gastly line, the Cubone line, the Drowzee line, the Zubat line and Meowth whenever you are. A reminder: if you are on a car, you may not see anything on the Sightings list, you might be driving too fast that Pokemon listed above will run away from you or disappear into smoke (especially Gastly and Haunter, they ain't called the Gas Pokemon for nothing!).
Moreover, to go with the spirit of Trick-or-Treating, the amount of Candies you receive when you catch, transfer or hatch a Pokemon will be doubled. Yes, double! Good for gaining more XP from those Pidgeys you evolved and then released (same applies to Zubat), and it's a fantastic time if you are desperate to get a Gengar, Persian or Hypno (Gengar has its niche when it comes to battling, I don't know how to describe Persian, Hypno is pretty decent).
Finally, the distance to obtain a Candy though Buddying is quartered for this period. That's the usual distance divided by four! Whether you want to accelerate the process of evolving your soon-to-be-two-out-of-three-chance-of-being-fantastic Magikarp into a Gyarados or evolving your Dratini all the way to a Dragonite, or you want to bring up the capabilities of your Snorlax or Lapras quickly, this is the perfect time to do so!
Oh, and here's a message from my cute Ghost-type trainer Mixia (definitely not from Pokemon GO):
