- Event Pokemon will appear in the wild even more frequently
- Event Pokemon will be drawn to Incenses and Lure Modules even more frequently

Other event features
Coinciding with the Día de los Muertos event, Pokemon Go will hold a Go Battle Day on Nov. 1. Among the rewards you’ll earn for winning is quadruple the usual amount of Stardust. Additionally, a few in-game freebies will be available during the event. You can claim a free Día de Muertos avatar shirt from the Style Shop, as well as a free item bundle containing 20 Poke Balls and one Incense.
The Día de los Muertos event runs until 8 p.m. local time on Nov. 2, but there are plenty more events happening in Pokemon Go next month. You can catch up on everything going on in the game in our Pokemon Go November events roundup.
