It is truly time to get into the Autumn spirit and start preparing for Halloween alongside Pok?mon Go’s Harvest Festival event.
This time, Niantic has put a focus on picking Pok?mon from patches, including the newly added Smoliv, and different-sized Pumpkaboo to finish research and Collection Challenges. Pumpkaboo fits the theme Pok?mon Go aims for every Halloween, but Smoliv is making its debut as the latest Paldean species in the Adventures Abound season.
From Oct. 12 to 17, players will see a number of Grass-type or flower-themed Pok?mon spawning more frequently in the game. This includes Sewaddle, Flab?b?, Bounsweet, and more–though only Smoliv and Pumpkaboo will be tied to a Collection Challenges or special Pok?Stop Showcases.
If you plan to try and harvest some of this event’s special rewards, we have compiled a full list of every bonus, Collection Challenge, and piece of Timed Research you might encounter.?

All Pok?mon Go Harvest Festival Timed Research tasks and rewards
Unlike most Pok?mon Go events, the Harvest Festival doesn’t have its own set of built-in Timed Research. Instead, it has a long page of research available for players who have purchased the Ticket of Treats paid research, which runs throughout October.
Ticket of Treats Part One was tied to the Detective Pikachu Returns event last weekend and Part Two specifically ties into the Harvest Festival, offering plenty of easy-to-claim rewards for simply catching Pumpkaboo. More pages are added to the Ticket of Treats each week, up until it disappears on Oct. 31 at the end of the Pok?mon Go Halloween 2023 event.
You can purchase the Ticket of Treats for $5 in the shop and gain access to all four parts post-release or as they become available until Oct. 31.
