Which raids are worth doing during the Halloween event Part 2 in Pokemon GO?

The raids that you should focus on are three-star Trick or Treat Gengar, Darkrai, and Mega Banette.

If you have a dearth of raid passes, try to do as many Trick or Treat Gengar raids as this is a new costumed creature. Since it won't spawn much in the wild, you can increase your chances of getting a shiny from raids.
