Pokémon Go Harvest Festival Collection Challenges and field research tasks

Harvest Festival Collection Challenge Pumpkaboo Pokémon list in Pokémon Go

The Harvest Festival Collection Challenge: Pumpkaboo is available in Pokémon Go until Tuesday 17th October at 8pm (local time).

You’ll unlock a series of rewards by completing the Harvest Festival Collection Challenge: Pumpkaboo, along with adding it to your Elite Collector Medal. If you miss that deadline though, you’ll get nothing.

It's important to note that half of the Pokémon in this Collection Challenge must be obtained via evolution. This means catching these Pokémon in the wild will not count towards the challenge.

The Max Out Season is here and includes a new global event, Wild Area, and the current 2024 Halloween event brings us Morpeko and the Halloween cup. You can now catch Dynamax Pokémon through Max Battles. First, however, you need to visit Power Spots to collect Max Particles and complete the To the Max! quest. Don't forget to try out Routes, Gift Exchange and Party Play while you're hunting down rare Pokémon, fighting in the Go Battle League or competing in PokéStop Showcases.

You can collect Harvest Festival exclusive field research tasks by spinning PokéStops throughout this Pokémon Go event. These tasks can be saved in your field research collection and completed after the event ends.

We recommend, however, completing some of these exclusive field research tasks during the Harvest Festival, because the rewards you’ll earn will help you complete the Collection Challenges above.

Here are the Harvest Festival field research tasks in Pokémon Go:

• Catch 10 Pokémon reward - Plant Cloak, Sand Cloak or Trash Cloak Burmy encounter
• Catch 15 Pokémon reward - Pumpkaboo encounter
• Catch 30 Pokémon reward - Pumpkaboo encounter
• Use 5 Berries to help catch Pokémon reward - Smoliv encounter

Everything you need to know about the Harvest Festival in Pokémon Go

The Harvest Festival sees the release of Smoliv in Pokémon Go. Hailing from Gen 9 Smoliv is, well, a sentient olive basically who can first evolve into Dolliv which can then transform into Arboliva. If you’d like to learn how to add this evolution line to your Pokédex, check out our how to get Smoliv guide.

Alongside Smoliv’s debut, there are three bonuses centred around a specific Lure Module and Pumpkaboo running throughout the Harvest Festival until it ends on Tuesday 17th October at 8pm (local time).

The first sees every player earning additional Pumpkaboo Candy when catching said Pokémon during the event. If you’re in real need of Pumpkaboos then you’ll also want to take advantage of the second bonus which sees Mossy Lure Modules attracting more Pumpkaboos. Finally, the third bonus sees Mossy Lure Modules lasting for two hours.

The following Pokémon will also be appearing more frequently in the wild during the Harvest Festival event:

• Bellsprout
