Pokemon Unite Halloween Event 2023 Start Time, Gameplay, and More

Throughout the years, there have been many spinoff Pokemon games that have emerged. One of the biggest ones that has appeared in the last few years is Pokemon Unite. This MOBA game allows players to take control of a single Pokemon to score points for their team. It's a new way to play Pokemon cooperatively.

One thing that Pokemon Unite is very good about is the updates that players get throughout the year. The updates include more Pokemon and some of them are themed around the holidays. This year, for the Halloween Event in Pokemon Unite, we will not only have the usual event but Mimikyu will make its debut in-game.

16 October 2023 - The Pokemon Unite Halloween event starts this week.

Pokemon Unite Halloween Event Start Time

It has been a few years since Pokemon Unite was first released. Since then, we have had some consistent annual events such as the Halloween Event. Although start times may vary, the Halloween Event is nearly guaranteed every year. This year, we have a confirmed date on when the Halloween event will start for Pokemon Unite. 

The Pokemon Unite Halloween Event will start on October 19th.

The event should last for a couple of weeks and we predict it will end on November 9th, if it runs for the same length as 2022. On top of the Pokemon Unite Halloween Event, October 19th is the official release date for Mimikyu as well. So it is a good time to jump into Pokemon Unite.

Pokemon Unite Halloween Event Gameplay: What To Expect

There are a couple of gameplay changes that happen during the Pokemon Unite Halloween Event. One of the most noticeable changes is that the arena will have Halloween decorations. On top of that, Halloween-themed Holo-Wear will be available to purchase for certain Pokemon as well.

During the Halloween Event, players can also take part in Quick Battles. These give everyone a Pumpkin Push ability that allows players to trap each other inside a pumpkin. This will stall out some players, making it easier to attack them and stop them from scoring points.
