This Dragon/Flying-type has a higher spawn rate during the Halloween event, but it is still lower compared to others on the spawn list. It is worth catching this critter as you gain bonus candies, and it requires 400 candies itself to evolve into a Noivern.

Shiny Zorua is an eye-catching addition to your collection, and it's bound to be a sought-after catch among players.

Gengar is one of the best Ghost-type additions to your PvP squad. While its costume may not be what many players expect, it's still an interesting addition. The Pokemon appears as a sushi chef, complete with an onigiri in his hair.

However, the designers decided to leave out the rest of the costume, making it a somewhat quirky look. Nevertheless, this rare appearance of a Gengar is worth capturing. Furthermore, the mischievous spirit has a higher encounter chance of being shiny.
