From Nov. 1-2, Pokémon Go is hosting a short event for Día de Muertos, featuring a Duskull wearing a cempasúchil flower crown and other bonuses, including a Collection Challenge.

During the two-day event, catch candy is doubled, plus both Lures and Incense will last for 90 minutes.

The Duskull with the cempasúchil crown will also have a chance to appear Shiny.
