Pokémon GO: Harvest Festival Event Guide 2024
Hot on the heels of the Halloween specials, the latest event in the calendar is Harvest Festival 2024, with more bonuses and increased spawns for trainers to hunt down. This year the Harvest Festival runs from Thursday 7 November 10am local time until Tuesday 12 November 8pm local time. It gives trainers other incentives to play alongside the current tough Max Battle Dynamax Pokémon that you can take on with friends.

Other Pokémon will appear during the event, but the 12 featured will spawn more commonly.

In addition, there is an increased chance to encounter Shiny Pumpkaboo over the six days.
