Trick or treat the Pokémon way with Super Size Pumpkaboo arriving for Pokémon X and Pokémon Y this October

This October, The Pokémon Company International will make a special Super Size Pumpkaboo available to players across Europe via Nintendo Network.

This distribution will allow players to easily qualify for the Trick-or-Treat Friendly Online Competition. To qualify, every participant’s Battle Box must include a Super Size Gourgeist. The easiest way to find this Gourgeist is to get a Super Size Pumpkaboo for your Pokémon X or Pokémon Y game, and then trade it to have it evolve into the battle-ready Gourgeist!

Even non-competitors can get in the Halloween spirit with Pumpkaboo! This Super Size Pumpkaboo comes with moves perfect for Halloween, including Trick-or-Treat and Scary Face. Plus, it’s holding a Rocky Helmet, which can cause damage to its attacker!

Pumpkaboo, the Pumpkin Pokémon, comes in four sizes, each featuring different stats for players to take advantage of. Super Size Pumpkaboo typically possess a larger HP stat than their smaller counterparts, making them more durable during Pokémon Battles. Even more bone-chilling than that, Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist are the only known Pokémon that can learn the move Trick-or-Treat, which can add an eerie element to any encounter by adding the Ghost type to opponents!
