Het is alweer bijna Halloween en gisteren is een eerste glimp op het Halloween-event reeds onthuld door Niantic. Maar er komt natuurlijk ook een Halloween Special Research, en daarvan hebben de dataminers de teksten gevonden:

A Spooky Message Unmasked 1/4:

  • BOO! Haha, hey there, %PLAYERNAME%!
  • Hope I didn’t scare you too much, I was just having a bit of fun during this spooky season.
  • Say, since you’re here, I was wondering if you could help me. I’ve heard some reports of an unusual Pokémon appearing in a nearby forest.
  • Ah—why aren’t I just going into the dark forest myself to find this Pokémon? Scared? No! Not at all!
  • Y-you see, I would, but I’m busy here with some…um…research! Yes!
  • Oh! I think I see Blanche over there near my lab and it looks like they need my help with evolving some Ghost-type Pokémon.
  • Could you go on ahead and let me know what you find, %PLAYERNAME%? Thanks and good luck!

A Spooky Message Unmasked 2/4:

  • Ah, Blanche, do you really think it’s Galarian form will be able to evolve— oh, glad to see you again %PLAYERNAME%—AH!
  • What’s that sound?! Oh, it’s just a Yamask, looks like it’s looking at its mask and crying again.
  • This was what you found in the forest? Ah, I see. Sorry, Trainer but it looks like you’re going to have to venture back into the woods for me.
  • After cross-referencing eyewitness reports with some texts I found about Ghost-type Pokémon, turns out we are not looking for this particular Yamask, which was discovered in the Unova region—but another one entirely!
  • This other one hails from the Galar region and looks almost like stone, not a mask. Sources say the slab absorbs the Yamask’s dark power. It appears Galarian Yamask might be a bit different than its Unovan counterpart.
  • Unfortunately, I can’t come along with you this time either…uh…looks like Spark needs my help with some Strange Eggs he’s trying to hatch! See ya later and good luck!

A Spooky Message Unmasked 3/4:

  • Yup, these Strange Eggs still seem to be hatching mostly Poison- and Dark-type Pokémon. This was an incredible use of time, I’m glad we got to confirm what we’ve already known—oh!
  • Welcome back, %PLAYERNAME%, how are—EGAD! A Spiritomb! What a tricky Ghost-type Pokémon.
  • I have worked with some Trainers to complete research on Spiritomb in previous years, you might’ve encountered and caught one before!
  • There seems to be a few more of them around than we’ve seen before, which is quite frightening given they’re quite mischievous and literally 108 spirits in one Pokémon, bound to a keystone to keep it in check.
  • One can say that it’s bound to be a real spooky season this year! Haha, sorry Spiritomb—too soon?
  • Anyway, sorry to do this to you again Trainer, but third times the charm, no? I’m sure this time will surely procure you an encounter with the illusive and elusive Galarian Yamask!
  • I gotta go help Candela prep for the an upcoming Trainer Battle, but you go on ahead! Good luck, %PLAYERNAME%!

A Spooky Message Unmasked 4/4:

  • Poison-, Ghost-, Bug-, Dark-, and Fairy-type Pokémon—looks like you’re all set for your spooky Trainer Battle, Candela!
  • Oh, hi there %PLAYERNAME%! And hello Galarian Yamask! What a curious Pokémon this is. It definitely gives off a totally different energy than it’s Unovan form.
  • I don’t know if you recall from earlier, but I was looking into evolving Pokémon with Blanche and it appears that Galarian Yamask is able to evolve into Runerigus!
  • All you need is to collect some Yamask Candy and get to evolving! It evolves into a totally different Pokémon than its Unovan form, so this will be a very exciting addition to your Pokédex, I’m certain of it!
  • Anyway, I’m so glad we got to go on this spooky adventure and discover a new Pokémon together!
  • Hope you had a ghoulish good time and hope you have an extra spoOoOoOoOoOoky day!

De Halloween Special Research bestaat uit vier delen en zoals je kunt zien spelen in ieder geval Spiritomb en Galarian Yamask een rol. Spiritomb lijkt mogelijk zelfs in het wild voor te komen, maar zeker is dat nog niet! Komende dinsdag loopt het huidige evenement af en kort daarna verwachten we Halloween! Zodra daar de details van bekend zijn, delen we die met jullie.
