Pokémon GO: how to get Mega Gengar; dates, tasks and rewards

We tell you how to complete Mega Gengar’s temporary investigation on the occasion of Halloween, which has some very long missions.

Pokémon GO has received a new special investigation dedicated to Mega Gengar on the occasion of the arrival of Halloween. The holiday of the Day of the Dead on the last day of October always has some kind of event in the Niantic game for iOS and Android; this time it couldn’t be less.

From this October 23 until November 4 at 03:00 (CET), all Trainers who have completed the temporary investigation ‘Mega Companion Challenge’ can access the following three tasks, which are rewarded with large doses of Mega Energy to unlock Mega Gengar. If we don’t complete that challenge, Professor Willow won’t offer us these Kanto Ghost Pokémon tasks.

  • There are several aspects to consider that we will detail below:
  • To evolve a Gastly to Gengar we need 25 candies
  • To evolve a Haunter to Gengar we need 100 candies
  • To unlock Gengar’s Mega Evolution you need 200 Gengar Mega Energy. Megaevolution lasts 8 hours (we can store up to 2000 Mega Energy of each species).
  • Then each time we Megaevolve it will cost 40 Mega Energy
