Pokémon Go offers a Halloween treat for players

Since the blockbuster Pokémon Go game launched in the summer, there were 50 million people trying to “catch ‘em all.” But tens of millions of players have put the game down as the nights get colder and darker. In an effort to bring those players back, Niantic, the makers of Pokémon Go, are offering a first ever in-game event from Oct. 26 to Nov. 1 to celebrate Halloween.
