Pokémon Go Halloween 2023: All Eerie Echos, Spiritomb, and Timed Research tasks and rewards

The end of spooky season is here as the Pokémon Go Halloween 2023 Part Two event runs from Oct. 26 to 31. A lot of the content from the first part will carry over to the final event of October, including the Eerie Echoes Timed Research and Spiritomb Limited Research. 

Combined, the two parts of this event have added new Pokémon like Greavard to the game along with things like Shadow Lugia raids and more. To help you take advantage of all of this content, we have a guide to every piece of Timed, Field, and paid Research in the Halloween 2023 event—including all of the event bonuses.
